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

      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).

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

    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.

    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.

      Came here for this. When he’s walking with his dad past all the people from his life smiling and saying goodbye, I always get serious feels. Had a little tremor just typing that out!

    Not a movie, but has anybody here seen the anime Anohana. If you can watch that and not cry in every episode, you’re a bonafide sociopath.

      Feeling brave, tried rewatching it and got to the scene with Bingbong and I had to turn that shit right off because I couldn’t stop crying. I cry at a lot of things but few movies have ever made me cry as hard as this one.

      Omg I held it together so well* during Coco until one of the final scenes when Hector picks up Coco and I absolutely lost it.

      *I cry at everything so “well” for me is probably not well for anyone else

    The Bob’s Burgers episode “The Amazing Rudy” (season 14, episode 2).

    Regular-sized Rudy goes out to eat with his divorced parents and their new significant others. It goes horribly wrong and he runs away to the Belchers’. I tear up a little bit even thinking of it because it isn’t played for laughs. I really feel for Rudy, just trying his hardest and putting way too much pressure on himself, and the way Louise steps up for her best friend is just so sweet.
