Ask Lemmy

Not a movie, but has anybody here seen the anime Anohana. If you can watch that and not cry in every episode, you're a bonafide sociopath.

The Bob's Burgers episode "The Amazing Rudy" (season 14, episode 2).

Regular-sized Rudy goes out to eat with his divorced parents and their new significant others. It goes horribly wrong and he runs away to the Belchers'. I tear up a little bit even thinking of it because it isn't played for laughs. I really feel for Rudy, just trying his hardest and putting way too much pressure on himself, and the way Louise steps up for her best friend is just so sweet.

The dad doing one last goofy march while his son watches, in Life os beautiful (1997)

The Iron Giant

Ibelin. Saw it in the cinema when it first came out, seemed like everybody in the audience was crying.

(It's about a kid with a degenerative disease who connected with people through an MMO.)

ANY time any dog dies.

Grave of fireflies, of course

The last part of AI (2001)

"little soldier boy" episode from Avatar: the last Airbender. Every time.

The ending of Watership Down. Can't even think about without getting misty.

First season of After Life by Ricky Gervais.

The scene after where Gervais' character realizes fully what he has done, especially to himself long term, is soul crushing. The i did the right thing, but for all of the right and wrong reasons look on his face is haunting. I think it is the 2nd episode.

A lot of the episodes open with him watching his wife telling him to enjoy life. Her sitting on the hospital bed, on her final days because of cancer.

"where do you think we are?"

The context is what makes this powerful. The buildup, the misdirection, the reveal.

This was Scrubs at its best. McGinley should have won an Emmy right there.

Opening for “Up” not in the top comments?

Miguel from Coco singning "Remember me" with Coco.

The sinking of the Going Merry. Oda made me cry for a boat, and I'm not even joking.

The movie 'About Time'. The ending tore me up.

The opening scene of Hackers (1995). Poor kid can't use a touch tone telephone or computer until his 18th birthday.

That's like taking away Mozart's piano.

The first minutes of Up.

Magnolia by Paul Thomas Anderson. The whole movie is pretty emotional but the scene where Tom Cruise's character confronts his absentee father on his death bed absolutely destroys me.

One of my all time favorite movies, but I gotta be ready to full on cry if I want to watch it.

When Rudy's dad tears up seeing his son on the field

The scene in Interstellar when he returns from the time dilation to watch like 40 years of updates he missed from his kids.

The original Fresh Prince when Will is desperately trying to convince himself he doesn't need his dad. Every time.

S1E3 of Last of Us - "Long, Long Time." Happy and sad tears galore.

When Homer drives his mom to the middle of nowhere so she could meet up with some friends to escape the police and he just stays there even even after she’s long gone long enough for day to turn into night.

Oh the scene/secquence? From Tim Burton's "Big Fish" when he gets the dad back in the water. That was so wholesome but so sad at the same time.

Grave of the fireflies... Sometimes the trailer is already enough... F*** can't even rewatch the thing...

The last 15 minutes of "The Return of The King," starting with, "My friends... You bow to no one."

Every. Damn. Time.
