I squeal at dogs and toddlers, not so much babies, under a year and they're not all that.


I was squealing at the dog in I Am Legend this evening though, especially when she was a puppy, aww!

Animals don't do it for me.... But giant robots can touch my heart...

That's why the end of The Iron Giant gets me every time.

Although the end of Escape From the Planet of the Apes is pretty sad as well..

I had a massive lump in my throat and watery eyes watching most episodes of eastenders for the last few weeks, watching most episodes of Waterloo Road too, and I'm sure when Dirty Housewives comes back on I'll be welling up aswell.....I also shed a tear during Brokeback Mountain....I do it privately, no-one knows.....to the outside world I am far from a "girly" girl!

One time I was clamped in Galway, I was absolutely stone broke, didn't have a cent in the bank and money was stressing me out bigtime for a few weeks leading up to the clamping, I also had to collect my baby from creche and was already late and worrying that she'd had a long day. When the clampers approached me I literally bawled crying into their faces, they didn't know where to look!

Terribly happy and excited on one occasion I clapped my hands and jumped up and down for some unexplainable reason, (like a 6 yr old child who has just been given a pony, a castle & the key to the chocolate factory), on the middle of grafton street when my bf suprised me with a cookie.... I blame the caffeine in Butlers coffee...ohm. I quickly fled the scene. To this day, I still don't understand.:rolleyes:

Love Actually, gets me every time...Emma Thompson...that bastard...as does Sense and Sensibility come to think of it. Alan Rickman...take me now..

Megatron gets a very bad name imo - *snif.

I cried at the vtol level of crysis - for some reason I am left handed and dyslexic at flying a vtol through a ****ing tornado - ts bastard hard!

Otherwise I laughed at et and titanic - I tend to do that when some people get the sniffles I get the giggles - also once in a film where a blind woman who sound-witnessed a murder had her guide dog killed by the killer - had me in sti-hitches laughing. I have said too much . . .

Absolutely not! :rolleyes:

I was new to the area so had no family or friends nearby, ended up sending a free call-me to me mammy and thank god for mobile phones & Mammies. She saw the text and phoned me, transferred money into my bank account and I was set free - I was lucky that internet banking and ATM Machines, AND my mother existed & was willing to bail me out, don't know what I'd have ended up doing otherwise.....

....still it was silly of me to cry to those guys who were just doing their job. You should have seen their faces.

I cry when I hear any romantic songs that remind me of my husband - the other day we were going in to celebrate our year wedding anniversary and I heard "Friends in time" and I bawled. I also still get very upset when I hear about people getting cancer as I am only just finished battling it myself - will be crying next month when I wait for the results of my latest test, the hospital makes me cry as it reminds me of when I was there. My hubby also makes me cry as he makes me feel so happy.

Cheeky_gal

God I'm even crying here listening to one of the songs from a walk to remember!! It's sooo sad!!!

A few weeks back when Russell Brand was in Easons I remember getting way too excited and I started jumping up and down swinging the arms all around the place in a real excited squeaky voice jumping up and down going "OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG". Looking back on it now I must have looked like a complete retard!

I cry at all movies too....

Can't believe the notebook hasn't been mentioned yet, no one cry at end of that........... I didn't because I'm a man.













....it was very sad, and water came outa my eyes for some reason.

Dan Fogelberg - Same Auld Lang Syne. I cry every time I hear it, and it's still my favourite christmas song - pathetic.

I'm a sap when it comes to sad movies and chick flicks. My cousin and I (who ironically split ourselves laughing at Titanic) were huddled on the couch bawling our respective eyes out on Christmas day watching Inside I'm Dancing. I Am Sam is one of the saddest movies I've ever seen in my entire life, and I challenge anyone to watch it without leaking a bit. (I cried when we went to see Enchanted, when I though Susan Sarandon had won. I'd forced my friend to come with me and she was mortified. I also giggled so loudly in parts that the entire cinema errupted with people laughing at me. )

I didn't find the notebook at all sad. In fact by the end of it I was highly confused and wasn't sure whether they had died or not so ended up saying is that it, what happened?!

I hope I havent spoiled it for anyone...

Bawled uncontrolably through Stepmom, prob cos i lost my aunt to cancer but its a very sad film anyway. especially when she knows she's dying and does all these nice things for her kids!

Wow! Exactly the same thing here! My mum had just lost her mum to cancer and literally only a few months later I said we'd sit down and watch this movie as I heard it was brilliant but wasn't sure of the storyline
Next thing is, I look over and my mums in BITS!!!

Kazobel

Both these make me cry

Ah I might aswell join in...this is so sad!

aw Forky I had that vid on my bebo for ages, it still sends shivers down my spine, amazing story, good man Paul Potts, where is he now though?!?

monkeyfudge

Wasn't he involved in the Khmer Rouge?

Sparky

I cried at the end of Saving Private Ryan



there its out now...

RAFC

Did any one else cry watching ~Finding Nemo~ That poor baby was abducted, taken to a foreign place and his poor dad had to search an entire OCEAN for him. Crikey, I bawled, while the kids laughed at me :(

Have to agree with cArOl - Denny dying was heartbreaking - Izzy in her gown all excited, then on the bathroom floor for the next episode, I didn't stop crying :(

monkeyfudge

I think I cried at the Pokemon movie when it looks like Ash dies.... but I think I had a lot of other sh*t going on in my life at the time...

Although to this day I still regret wasting my master ball to capture an articuno instead of using it to get Mewtwo.

But when ash dies all the pokemon cry... and then I cried... but it turned out to be a good thing as the pokemon tears brought ash back to life. Brilliant piece of cinema.

I cry at everything.... including that tube clip!

OH bought me the ally mcbeal box set and the episode where billy dies, i was like a snivelling wreck!

I would say i'm the worst crier in here!

Solarball10

Oh god...where do I start?!

-I bawled when Kevin died in Eastenders (i know....)
-I talk in an annoyingly high-pitched voice when I'm drunk ....
-I say "omg that's soooo cute" about anything remotely, erm, cute!

Turandot is a great opera.

If you like that piece you should listen to the whole thing so it's in context.

Crumble Froo

aw man, just realised how much of a sucker to other people's emotions i am. i realise that when saying bye to one of my dearest mates before i went to nz, i couldnt actually stay to say bye cos i was already crying, and i knew that if i saw them crying, id be ****ed.

but ive since been watchign the serires survivor: china, and today was the episode where they are reunited with loved ones : husbands, mothers, fathers, sisters, and, well, i bawled.

and post new zealand have a whole seires of ads, showing how they connect people, and they have this really moving music,and well... i bawl during those ads too...

Did noone else cry at the end of Pearl Harbour or was that just me?

I'll cry at anything, I remember when I was wee I cried when my mammy sold her car...:o

I'll cry at anything...and I also talk like a chipmunk and get hopelessly overexcited at, well, nothing, really.

lol Jules,

I am not a crier at ALL, but when Billy died in Ally McBeal I was a blithering idiot.

There are only three other films that are guaranteed to get me blubbing, and they're all kids movies.

The Jungle Book (when it seems Sher Khan has killed Baloo)
The Lion King (when Mufasa does actually die... it kills me when baby Simba calls out in a sad voice "Somebody..... anybody!"... and it just echoes off the walls of the ravine)
My Girl (when Macaulay Culkin dies from the bee stings.... weepfest).

I have watched The Notebook about 3 times, and whilst it is very sad, it hasn't made my eyes even glisten.... there must be something wrong with me.

silvervixen84

God yeah, i remember watching the episode when Billy died and was inconsolable for the rest of the night.

I'm a sucker for a weepy though, i cry at sad endings, but also bawl at happy endings, can be v embarrassing (13 going on 30 anyone?!!

other than that, the only times i got overgirly was when i went to see bon jovi (X2) with my best friend and we were like a pair of drooling idiots (best day ever, roll on June when he's back!!)

I had to drink a pint of water after bawling at the end of that - major crying related dehydration.

Sometimes there's just nothing better than a good cry, cleans out my eyes and gets rid of a lot of pent up stress/hormonal aggro.

Catari Jaguar

Oh man, I'm soooo emotional and overly sensitive.

Films I cried watching:

- In America ("Say Goodbye to Frankie")
- Dead Poets Society
- The Green Mile
- Stepmom
- A Walk to Remember (bawled when I read the book too)
- Edward Scissorhands
- Simon Birch
- Nausicaa Of the Valley of the Wind
- Howl's Moving Castle
- My Neighbour Totoro
- Pixar's Cars and Ice Age (I swear to God!)
- The Lion King
- Love Actually
- Harry Potter (Sirius!)

I cried at Father of the Bride because she was leaving her Dad to go get married and Steve Martin was all sad remembering her baby days.. *cringe*

I cry at sweet music too, like piano and violin and nice love songs. I get all soppy over nature and seeing sweet, innocent things.

Other girlie things I do; looking for attention from my boyfriend and sulking and the old "I'm not going to tell you if you don't even know what you did"

I love shoes and cosy PJs and sparkley eye liners and drinking fruity cocktails (even though all my work colleagues are mature and ordering wines and actually knowing the names of varieties..) And I really want a Pomeranian puppy, cute lil fluffballs and I shall dress him up. :P

I sobbed, unconsolably, when Denny died in Grey's Anatomy

Titanic was a major tear jerker for me too in my youth.

Although right now I feel really cold hearted cause just home from the cinema where we went to see P.S., I Love You. Everyone around me was in hysterics, and I just laughed at them all......

that show always gets to me

/off in search of season 2

Oh God anyone that didn't feel weepy at Denny dying in Grey's Anatomy must not be human...damn Snow Patrol song was perfectly sad for it. Awww Denny
