Ask Lemmy

"Despite knowing the journey and where it leads, I embrace it. And I welcome every moment of it."

Cinema Paradiso. Wonderful Italian film about a boy’s relationship with an elder in the town as he mentally escapes war torn Sicily. Just wholesome and hits hard. It’s a beautiful story and the soundtrack by Ennio Morricone, ohhhh so good.

I found the entire concept, but especially the "happy ending" of Paulie to be tragic and extremely depressing to me.

My mother loved Beaches and Steel Magnolias but they always ruined my day. Then my mother died of cancer and they crossed into the unwatchable list.

Watching the music video for My Heart Will Go On

The ending of Pan's Labyrinth

The music video for Hozier's Take Me To Church

The liberation of a concentration camp in Band Of Brothers

Another one is the movie 'The Fountain' which is played excellently by Hugh Jackman.

Silver Linings Playbook. A real tear jurker. The scene at the end.

Toy Story 4. The scene where Woody says goodbye to the rest of the toys and goes off on his new adventure with Bo Peep. Gets me every time.

The original Toy Story was the first movie I remember seeing in a theatre so maybe there's some nostalgia contributing to that.

The Christmas Dinner at the end of "Seven Fishes" Season 2 of The Bear. Cuts a little too much on the dotted line for me.

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

Paddington 2

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

The end of Onward

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

Tossing some anime in here:

Anohana Violet Evergarden Fullmetal Alchemist (watch Brotherhood, but the scenes I'm thinking of but even harder in the original)

When Mufasa dies.

"It's not your fault" - Good Will Hunting

"A dog's purpose" movie's main purpose was to be tear jerker.

That part of airbud where he tries to push the dog away and abandon him. Sorry in advance.

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

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

It's not a movie, it's an old avertisement, and I guarantee you if it doesn't stir something in you, you're not human:

"I love you Daddy" -Clannad

Every time and even when I just think about it

So my sister bought me the wind rises... I went it watching it thinking it was another fun film... I called her after I finished and told her I was not mentally prepared for that.

Such a beautiful film though...
