My obvious pick: "It's a terrible day for rain."

My niche pick: Patch Adams. The scene where he considers || jumping off the cliff ||

My IDGAF what you think pick: Avengers Endgame. "Hey, Pep" and "You can rest now."

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.

I remember Click (2006) being very sad, but I haven't watched it in a long time.

the street performance scene in bocchi the rock, no matter what ill always start crying when i watch it

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 day ago

So I don't get to the cinema much, but I got to see The Muppets when it came out (over a decade ago, good grief), and Kermit singing Pictures In My Head totally broke me.

Dunno whether it will work for anyone else, but like many of a certain age, I grew up with the original Muppet Show on TV and it hit too damn hard.

The ending to that depressing as fuck Speilberg film A.I. Don't ever watch it unless you want to ruin your day.

THIS scence from "Platoon" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QEv3zzKyiFQ

The music is adagio for strings which has to be the saddest most emotional score ever

"A toast to my big brother George, the richest man in town."

Alternatively:

"You are who you choose to be."

"Superman."

Buffy The Vampire Slayer, “The Body”.

Mom? Mom! Mommy?

Most are giving joke answers.

This one hits hard.

The last scene of the last episode of Six Feet Under.

[–] [email protected] 14 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Birdman (with Michael Keaton) - nothing in the actual movie but the absolute soul crushing sadness when I realized that they weren't making a Harvey Birdman Attorney at Law movie.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 day ago

You want a tearjerking Michael Keaton movie, watch My Life. Hydrate afterwards, plenty of electrolytes, you're welcome.

[–] [email protected] 9 points 1 day ago

Maes Hughes' big action moment in Full Metal Alchemist - either version.

Alternatively, the scene this music https://youtu.be/EL7e5XrzanA goes to (Ep 5 of Cowboy Bebop) - far more of a tear jerker for me than the final episode.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 day ago

Ernest Goes to Camp, when the kids pick on him and reject him. He sings the song “All I Needed Was a Friend”. No joke, shit hits hard

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

[–] [email protected] 8 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

Link for the uninitiated.

"How come he don't want me, man?" And the way Phil grabs him for the hug 😭💔

[–] [email protected] 14 points 1 day ago

It's funny that for having such a full career I still think Fresh Prince was an absolute masterpiece and unequaled by anything else Will Smith did. (Second place was probably the original Men in Black).

My Life with Michael Keaton and Nicole what’s her name

This is the top of the list. Nothing else comes close when you need a really good and sincere cry.

The fault in our stars was so sad I wish I hadn't ever watched it. I hate that movie.
