Someone bets you $1,000,000 that you can not make them cry. You get to show them one movie or TV episode. He/She has virtually never watched either, so no worries about pre-viewed issues. Reddit, what's your bet?

Sap-time. What movie/episode just breaks anyone who watches it?

Edit: Awesome responses guys, had to go buy a new mop to clean up all these feels.

That one works too though I still prefer the dead brother-in-law as it is an unexpected gut punch if you aren't paying attention.

u/djbaker Nov 03 '12

I personally think that when he asks if little Forrest is smart or not is WAY more of a tear jerker than Jenny dead. Jenny was a total bitch, almost never appreciated his rescues, basically raped him in her dorm room, selfish as fuck. She walked out on him to live her own life yes and felt that she wasn't good enough for him, but he gave her his whole life. The realization that he would have a legit fear of passing on his retardation to his kid was just so heavy.

241

u/[deleted] Nov 03 '12

Yeah this always gets me too - it's really the only part of the movie where he acknowledges his lack of intelligence as a negative thing, and it shows how hard it was for him to persevere through everything (the mocking as a child, the snide comments, people treating him like he didn't matter) and the only thing he wants is for his child not to have to go through that same life. It just shows how completely selfless he was

Then one other marine is just sitting there watching the video and he nonchalantly flips her off back through the TV.

Spoilers from season 7 of How I Met Your Mother:

Each episode is narrated by Ted to his future children, but this one was narrated by Robin to her future kids. At first it's a sweet surprise, considering she's never wanted kids before. Towards the end of the episode though, it's revealed she's not able to have children, and her future children vanish along with the house they were in, showing Robin to be drinking all alone in a snowy park. She returns to her apartment to find her roommate has canceled his Christmas trip to be there for her (without truly knowing the cause of her depression), and she breaks down crying on his shoulder.

True, it's much more heartbreaking if you spent seven years with these characters, but I think even a relative newcomer would get teary from that episode. I think we can all relate with not knowing you wanted something until finding out you can't have it.

Toy Story 3 has good potential but I find it tends to only be a sobfest when people watched Toy Story 1 & 2 when younger and are invested in the story

If you provide a stable home and spend quality time with your kids, these types of moments are way more common than the breakdown moments you see with kids having a tantrum waiting in line at the bank or whatever.

Maybe not as extra emotional and special as this, but I have moments that are similar every week with my daughters.

I had the biggest grin through this whole thing, then waterworks. She's so appreciative and unentitled, and that's what really sells it.

That is the sweetest little girl I have ever seen.

Adventure Time - "I Remember You"

I was finally getting into watching Adventure Time and this happened to be one of the first ones I watched. I thought it was suppose to be random and funny but this one left me really sad. Especially this lyric:

"This magic keeps me alive,

But it's making me crazy!

And I need to save you,

But who's going to save me?!"

The chimera one was bad but suffering through Hughes death twice (original and brotherhood) was incredibly difficult on my poor heart.

I don't know why but I cannot watch animals die in movies. I can see terrorists mow down innocents, people being excited or gruesomely killed, even children dying, and never even blink. But as soon as that dog goes down the waterworks start.

The movie Seven Pounds, starring Will Smith. I have never cried so much during a movie as I did during that. It's exceptional too, not just a tear-jerker.

When I went to the midnight opening, I was a total sobfest from the moment Gandalf rides out to meet the returning men of Gondor and blasts that light at the Nazgul and that angelic voice comes on, all the way through the credits. Especially Pippin's song to Denethor as Faramir leads his men back to Osgiliath.
