Post movies scenes that genuinely make your heart sink:

[MtnMan]

Old Yeller :'(

 

[Wag]

Grave of the Fireflies

Saddest...movie...evar.....

 

[CZroe]

The scene in "Empire of the Sun" where Christian Bale's character doesn't even recognize his own parents after losing his privileged life and surviving in a POW camp.

Last moments with Oden in the 19 cry challenge did it for me. That's hands down the saddest thing I've ever seen.

Forgot about this one: The beginning of Up:

I think it hits a little too close to home for me

 

[Ichinisan]

Sarah Goldfarb's decline in Requiem For a Dream

Yes. This.

The scene in "Empire of the Sun" where Christian Bale's character doesn't even recognize his own parents after losing his privileged life and surviving in a POW camp.

I thought the scenes between him and the young kamikaze were more powerful.

 

[CZroe]

Yes. This.



I thought the scenes between him and the young kamikaze were more powerful.

Not nearly. That was cliched and mostly pointless.

 

[Ichinisan]

Not nearly. That was cliched and mostly pointless.

They were completely different, and still felt a connection through all the barriers between them.

 

[Broheim]

the episode of futurama with Fry's dog... OH THE FEELS, ONIONS! ONIONS EVERYWHERE!!!

 

[orenero]

The part in Schindlers List when they are burning all the bodies ( its truly an atrocity what happened to those people) and the scene focuses in on the little girl in Red ( in color keep in mind whole movie black and white) as she is seen being carted off to be disposed of.

 

[ImpulsE69]

The end of Hachiko a dog's story

Yes very moving but to know that this really happened makes it even more powerful.

 

[CZroe]

That's what was so cliche and seemingly-forced about it.

 

[Ichinisan]

No. It just makes you realize that there were naive children affected on both sides.

 

[CZroe]

No. It just makes you realize that there were naive children affected on both sides.

Ugh. He was blinded by his love of flying and willing to do horrible things to fly. Different kind of naivete and I don't think it was particularly relevant to the story anyway. We, the viewer, didn't even really know the kid so it had much less impact than him not recognizing his own parents after what he went through.

 

[skyking]

The ending of "Life is Beautiful"

bingo!

Dear Zachary

 

[KayGee]

The scene from Schindler's list when they making the Jews take all the dead bodies and burn them, and you see the little girls red jacket in color with everything else in black and white.

Very sickening what happened to those people.

I read all the replies to see if someone had posted about what I consider the most depressing scene in movie history.

The end of The Big Lebowski when

Spoiler

The Dude doesn't get his rug back!

so sad, and so infuriating at the same time.

 

[postmark]

For some reason the end of Toy Story 3 made me sad.

That and finding nemo for me.

His rug wasn't taken from him. It was pissed on.

 

[CZroe]

His rug wasn't taken from him. It was pissed on.

The second one was.

 

[zinfamous]

His rug wasn't taken from him. It was pissed on.

Are you suggesting that The Dude received adequate compensation for his inconvenience?


What are you, a fascist?
