RE: Excellent movies

Of all movies to cry to. Why Lord of the rings :/ ?


The only times I cried in the middle of a movie was when I saw:

Pocahontas (when I was around 8... so shut up)

The Story of the Weeping Camel (13-15ish)

and

Mr. Nobody (19, because it reminded me too much of some problems I was passing trough at the time)

RE: Excellent movies

Nothing really sad happens in LOTR. People probably cry because of the soundtrack. Throughout the trilogy they play that Shire theme at every nice and nostalgic moment, and then at "you bow to no one" they build up the melody really well. This is the piece: link if video doesn't show

RE: Excellent movies

The only time I ever cried during a movie was at the end of Titanic, but that was also when I was a little child.

Also slightly off-topic, but the few times I've "almost" cried from something during adulthood are from:

Wall-e
Telltale's Walking Dead

The time I ACTUALLY cried legit tears out has only one thing on the list:
Higurashi Kai

Doesn't have to make you cry, just that it's an emotional part of the movie.

RE: Excellent movies

Well I've cryed real badly when Terminator 2 was released. 20 years ago. I was a young lad at that time and I crearly remember that primiere day when the theater was a full of people. And at the end of the movie the whole damn theater was full of crying people. Yup, Terminator 2 was extremely touching.

RE: Excellent movies

I remember when Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire was first released. I went to see it in the cinema and was sitting next to two grown men that were crying at the end because of Robert Pattinson's characters death. Surprised I still remember that...

Maybe they thought it was real...and that it was over.

RE: Excellent movies

That would involve some seriously cool time travel (...or premonition skills)! The movie for Goblet of Fire (released November 2005) came out just after the first book in the Twilight series (published in October of 2005) :p

I don't watch movies, so perhaps I should start using this thread as a guide for myself...

If anyone's curious, the Twilight "trend"/obsession/thingy reached a high in late 2008 (https://www.google.ca/trends/explore#q=T...ter&cmpt=q)
