Spren of Kindness she/her Posted March 20, 2022 Report Share Posted March 20, 2022 What movies/books/songs make you cry, and why? There's only two that are likely to make me cry repeatedly, and that's Interstellar, and 'And Every Morning The Way Home Gets Longer And Longer' by Fredrick Backman. Interstellar because I'm a very family-oriented person, and 'Every Morning' because in some ways I've been the kid in that book, and it hit very close to home. What about y'all? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robin Sedai she/her Posted March 20, 2022 Report Share Posted March 20, 2022 The Hands of the Emperor by Victoria Goddard made me tear up, and there's this one scene in Harry Potter that gets me every time. I also cried a bit when (ROW spoilers) Spoiler Teft died. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Morningtide she/her Posted March 20, 2022 Report Share Posted March 20, 2022 I don't usually cry while watching movies or reading books but Rhythm of War got me closer than any book in a long time. Tick...Tick...Boom also got me pretty close. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Medium he/they Posted March 20, 2022 Report Share Posted March 20, 2022 Not a crier to media. Arcane almost got me. (gods man that show im gonna be ranting about it for WEEKS) The Way Of Kings got me. Second time reading it, and Tiens death made me just start sobbing and I have no idea why. I think I was just having a bad day. Nothing else ever made me come close to crying. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Experience he/him Posted March 21, 2022 Report Share Posted March 21, 2022 Teft at the end of Oathbringer has made me tear up. Also, the books where dogs die like Old Yeller or Where the Red Ferns Grow. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quivil she/her Posted March 21, 2022 Report Share Posted March 21, 2022 17 Miracles, Ephraim's Rescue, Cokeville Miracle, Love Kennedy, Hachi, Coco iirc, Rhythm of War, a part of a webcomic, a thing I wrote made me cry when I read it aloud, a thing my sister wrote almost made me cry when she read it aloud, and a bunchabuncha others I can't remember. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PurpurPhönix he/him Posted March 21, 2022 Report Share Posted March 21, 2022 I just rewatched the Good Place recently and I definitely just like all out bawl during the finale, and normal cry during plenty of the rest of the show 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cassiegoh Posted March 22, 2022 Report Share Posted March 22, 2022 I rarely cry during movies and don't think I've ever cried reading a story book but I remember balling my eyes out towards the ending of Coco (2017). 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eluvianii he/him Posted March 22, 2022 Report Share Posted March 22, 2022 My sister and I seem to be the only people in the world who didn't think Coco was a sad movie... Aside from that, I'm a bit of a crybaby. In recent memory, episode 3 of All of Us Are Dead got me, when I continue watching it I'm sure it'll get worse. Belle made it difficult to restrain myself considering I was at the theater. No Way Home had a couple moments. RoW had a reaaally good moment (and more to come in the 300 pages I have left I'm sure). No Time to Die definitely. A song called Dandelion Girls, Dandelion Boys hit me a lot harder than I expected it to. Lupin III for all its silliness has proven it can play with my feelings like a toy whenever it chooses to. Trails of Cold Steel 4 has come to the point I cry once every chapter or so. And of course, I rewatched Your Lie in April recently and that one always turns me into a sad bundle of tears. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quivil she/her Posted March 22, 2022 Report Share Posted March 22, 2022 Nonono Coco is a happy movie and it makes me cry because it's happy. Somehow. The Tien part in RoW too. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spren of Kindness she/her Posted March 22, 2022 Author Report Share Posted March 22, 2022 I've actually been avoiding Coco because I watched the Cinema Therapy episode on it, and almost cried from that alone, so I'm saving it for either when I'm alone, or when I'm with people I'm comfortable breaking down around. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+ILuvHats he/him Posted March 31, 2022 Report Share Posted March 31, 2022 A Silent Voice got me, so if you’re open to anime please watch this movie, it’s great. But nothing has devastated me as much as A Dog’s Purpose. For a movie that critics have decided is utterly mediocre, it has made me cry on every rewatch. What can I say, I like dogs. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maddie The Survivor she/her Posted April 1, 2022 Report Share Posted April 1, 2022 I can’t not watch Infinity War, Endgame, and Spider-Man No Way Home without crying. Spoilers for Infinity War: Spoiler When Peter was being dusted away- Endgame Spoilers: Spoiler I start crying hysterically when Nat and Tony die.. It was rough when I watched it- No Way Home spoilers: Spoiler Aunt May- I also get emotional when I watch To Kill a Mockingbird. Star Wars: Return of The Jedi wasn’t bad before I watched Clone Wars the series Really any movie someone of something dies in, I can’t watch it without crying. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rashek's PR Manager she/her Posted April 1, 2022 Report Share Posted April 1, 2022 I'm surprised that nobody has mentioned HOA whose ending turned me into a sobbing mess. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maddie The Survivor she/her Posted April 2, 2022 Report Share Posted April 2, 2022 35 minutes ago, Rashek's PR Manager said: I'm surprised that nobody has mentioned HOA whose ending turned me into a sobbing mess. Ok, books are a whole different category for me. HOA was probably the worst book emotional wise for me. Spoiler Although RoW war pretty rough too. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elf They/them Posted June 8, 2022 Report Share Posted June 8, 2022 Nevernight. There's this scene in the third book that i swear to you made me tear up 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Wandering Wizard he/him Posted June 8, 2022 Report Share Posted June 8, 2022 RoW nearly did, the ending of the fourth book of the wingfeather saga, the warden and the wolf king, and the ending of the chronicles of narnia, the last battle. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Little_Dagger she/her Posted September 28, 2022 Report Share Posted September 28, 2022 Gadfly by Voynich is one of the most heartbreaking books I have ever read. I read it several times at different ages and cried every time... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rabbit Unmade she/her Posted September 30, 2022 Report Share Posted September 30, 2022 The part with Tien in RoW, Teft, and when I thought, Wax was going to die, and I felt super gross all when I thought Frodo died, I was sooo sad, and I stopped reading for a day after that chapter, so I didn't realize he was still alive until the next day. Yeah, I cry all the time while reading good books. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Isochronism he/him Posted September 30, 2022 Report Share Posted September 30, 2022 (edited) The end of The Dark Talent, (book) Open arms by Journey (song) and Onward (movie) are among the many things that have made me cry. (They're what I remember right now.) Edited September 30, 2022 by Bondsmith-Edgedancer 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spren of Kindness she/her Posted September 30, 2022 Author Report Share Posted September 30, 2022 I read A Man Called Ove, another Fredrick Backman book, a few months ago, and that one also made me cry. Turns out, I'm really sensitive to stories about grandparents. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Odiumiumium he/him Posted September 30, 2022 Report Share Posted September 30, 2022 I almost cried while reading a few Ken Liu short stories, specifically The Literomancer, The Paper Menagerie, and An Advanced Reader’s Picture Book of Comparative Cognition. I also remember The Giver by Lois Lowry was quite emotional at the end? It's been a while. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Just a Silvereye he/him Posted September 30, 2022 Report Share Posted September 30, 2022 (edited) I almost never cry when reading, I don't know why. But several scenes in all of SA got me close. Also the HoA ending. I have also come close when reading the Malazan books (especially 2 and 3; I haven't read beyond 3 for now). The end of Return of the King, too. And of course, there is a book that destroyed me even more. Edited September 30, 2022 by Just a Silvereye 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rabbit Unmade she/her Posted September 30, 2022 Report Share Posted September 30, 2022 Oh yes, the end of Return of the King! I was like, NOOO FRODO! My only comfort was that Sam was still there. And I totally forgot about Onward. I was bawling my eyes out. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
