Fierce_LiNk Posted January 3, 2008 Posted January 3, 2008 Personally, I was laughing my ass off at the end of Titanic. What? You heartless bastard! Even at the veeerry end where she goes up the staircase and sees everyone and him? I felt all warm and fuzzy.
Guest Jordan Posted January 3, 2008 Posted January 3, 2008 Yes, i'm a heartless bastard. I sat through went felt like a life time of utter bs that, that film was. Why the fuck would you go see a movie where the ending was blantently obvious and felt as emotional as a lump of stone. Leonardo DiCaprio is a damn, damn good actor... but he sucks in that film.
Zell Posted January 3, 2008 Posted January 3, 2008 I've never cried at and end of a film. There have been those great films which really shook me inside, like the end of Gladiator.

You could say that about any WW2 film then, might as well take all the awards away from Saving Private Ryan since it's so "predictable".

Surely the fact that you know something is going to happen, but importantly - the characters don't - is a powerful piece of story-telling?
Guest Jordan Posted January 3, 2008 Posted January 3, 2008 You could say that about any WW2 film then, might as well take all the awards away from Saving Private Ryan since it's so "predictable". I didn't particularly enjoy SPR, I was much more of a Band of Brothers person. I really enjoyed that, because of its historical 'accuracy' and how the characters portrayed on the screen were close to their real life counter parts. Surely the fact that you know something is going to happen, but importantly - the characters don't - is a powerful piece of story-telling? I suppose you could put it that way. I don't mind other people enjoying movies, not at all. Just let me be open to my opinions
Fierce_LiNk Posted January 3, 2008 Posted January 3, 2008 I suppose you could put it that way.I don't mind other people enjoying movies, not at all. Just let me be open to my opinions Just find it strange you didn't even cry the once...you must be made of some pretty hard stuff, dude. My mate left the cinema before the end cos he was in tears. Hahahaha.
Chris the great Posted January 3, 2008 Posted January 3, 2008 i almost cried to titanic. because it was one of the worst films ever. "im the king of the world!" if i was kate winslet id have slapped him for that line. also, short circuit 2, when johney 5 is attacked and dying breaks my heart every time.

My mate left the cinema before the end cos he was in tears. Hahahaha. Like i said in a previous post. Stuff moves me... but never to tears. Unless you know, its so bad that i'm bored to tears. But thats in a metaphorical sense. Stuff in real life makes me cry though. So i'm not that messed up
Fierce_LiNk Posted January 3, 2008 Posted January 3, 2008 Like i said in a previous post. Stuff moves me... but never to tears. Unless you know, its so bad that i'm bored to tears. But thats in a metaphorical sense. Stuff in real life makes me cry though. So i'm not that messed up I think my housemate is like that. She isn't into many films, because she doesn't see the point in crying over something that ain't real.
welsh_gamer Posted January 3, 2008 Posted January 3, 2008 Cried and/or make me feel very sad :- The Lord of the Rings : The Return of the King Armageddon Forrest Gump The Green Mile Castaway Gladiator Schinder's List The Pianist E.T George Mason's sacrifice and Edgar's death Happy tear's :- The Shawshank Redemption Love Actually
Guest Jordan Posted January 3, 2008 Posted January 3, 2008 Cried and/or make me feel very sad :- The Lord of the Rings : The Return of the King Was this due to the strange homoerotic bit at the end on Frodo's bed? That shit is weird.
Fierce_LiNk Posted January 3, 2008 Posted January 3, 2008 i almost cried to titanic. because it was one of the worst films ever. "im the king of the world!" if i was kate winslet id have slapped him for that line. Shut up, you. also, short circuit 2, when johney 5 is attacked and dying breaks my heart every time. That's one of the bits my housemate cries at. And when he writes on the wall to ask his friend for help.
Tellyn Posted January 3, 2008 Posted January 3, 2008 There were a few emotional moments in Lord of the Rings. The death of Boromir when he died fighting to save the Hobbits, Denethor telling Faramir that he'd rather he had died instead of Boromir (and the scene where Faramir attempts to retake Osgiliath), Sam's "there's some good in this world, and it's worth fighting for" speech, and the final leg of the journey, when Frodo and Sam are climbing Mt. Doom.
Ashley Posted January 3, 2008 Posted January 3, 2008 Yes, i'm a heartless bastard. I sat through went felt like a life time of utter bs that, that film was. Why the fuck would you go see a movie where the ending was blantently obvious and felt as emotional as a lump of stone. Leonardo DiCaprio is a damn, damn good actor... but he sucks in that film. Same reason you would say the same two words in a row perhaps? (Blatantly obvious mean the same thing. I think you're looking for the word "patently" :p) Stuff in real life makes me cry though. So i'm not that messed up Im the opposite. I don't cry in real life. And I haven't seen Titanic so I can't really say whether it made me cry or not. Doubt it now though. Its been parodied so much I just wouldn't be able to take it seriously.
My Buttons are Magic! Posted January 3, 2008 Posted January 3, 2008 i just cry all the time cry in real life cry for tv/films im like a bloomin waterworks - anything can set me off didnt cry at titanic tho - i laughed
Ellmeister Posted January 3, 2008 Posted January 3, 2008 I remember crying at the end of Godzilla. But crying at Titanic? No way!
chairdriver Posted January 3, 2008 Posted January 3, 2008 I cried in Titanic at the bit where she can't blow the whistle.
Guest bluey Posted January 3, 2008 Posted January 3, 2008 grave of the fireflies.. when the little girl says her last line... gets me every. single. time.
Aimless Posted January 3, 2008 Posted January 3, 2008 Never, presumably because I'm dead inside. No, I can be moved by films but I tend to go for reflection rather than tears. Take Pan's Labyrinth, for example: I was saddened by the end, but it made me think rather than cry. I'm simply not a teary person. In fact until a month or so ago I hadn't cried for well over ten years. I don't think there's anything wrong with crying, and I'm far more emotional than some people give me credit for, but I'm not going to force myself to well up simply because it's 'the done thing'.
Dante Posted January 3, 2008 Posted January 3, 2008 I cant remember what tv/film shows have made me cry.
Chris the great Posted January 3, 2008 Posted January 3, 2008 oh, almost forgot, as a lad of 10(ish) braveheart and dragon heart both left me close to tears. i question my parents wisdom in letting m,e watch braveheart, though its fine film.
welsh_gamer Posted January 3, 2008 Posted January 3, 2008 I remember crying at the end of Godzilla. I did too! I was 10 mind... Was this due to the strange homoerotic bit at the end on Frodo's bed? That shit is weird. I think I was upset because the fantastic trilogy that I was obsessd with, had come to and end and there would be no more.
Bluejay Posted January 3, 2008 Posted January 3, 2008 Personally, I was laughing my ass off at the end of Titanic. Correct display of emotions. Anger is also acceptable.
