Not having seen the other films mentioned, I can't comment on them, but having my own special show that I love so much that it hurts (LOST), I know what it's like to break down to a blubbering mess at it's conclusion, when you've been with these characters you know and love for so long. You feel like you know everything about them. What they lived for, in some cases, what they died for, their goals, their life stories. And really, that's a testament to the power of the storytelling in certain shows and films, especially epic franchises like Harry Potter, Lord of the Rings, etc. <br /><br />re: Up - Up remains my second favorite Pixar film, behind WALL-E. I also shed some tears in both. But that, again, is the power of the storytelling at Pixar. Cars aside, they have yet to make anything below masterful standards. Michael Giacchino won the oscar for Up for a reason. During that 10 minute montage at the beginning, the score is given our full aural attention, and it tugs the heartstrings. <br /><br />Great post!Kevin K.https://www.blogger.com/profile/09706276828853829294noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3654618798660691999.post-87035838953016879582010-10-19T10:59:54.223-05:002010-10-19T10:59:54.223-05:00I TOTALLY AGREE.

And I absolutely love your write-up on it. <br /><br />Personally, along with that scene, I also tear up when Boromir dies. ;_; And when Sam carries Frodo.

I was watching them full-time and thought it would be a fun getaway from the farm to see a movie. I was WRONG. I was a mess...and they were sad. Later that summer I had to take them to Ice Age 3 to make it up to them. *tear*JustBreathehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03484756916419414673noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3654618798660691999.post-70988626905821056592010-10-17T17:35:55.971-05:002010-10-17T17:35:55.971-05:00Up kills me every time!

I was flipping through the channels and found it right as Carrie's phone started ringing. I immediately teared up... That scene is such a prefect illustration of true friendship.Meganhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06087947627689605546noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3654618798660691999.post-80218527427552612622010-10-16T15:58:20.216-05:002010-10-16T15:58:20.216-05:00Oh, and that version of Auld Lang Syne is amazing....Oh, and that version of Auld Lang Syne is amazing. We threw a NYE party the year that SITC was in theaters and at midnight I had that version queued up for the stroke of midnight. We muted the TV so we could still see the ball drop, but at 11:55 and 50 seconds I started the song and kissed my husband at the stroke of 12. Then I looked around the room at all our closest friends all celebrating the new year, hugging, kissing, laughing and I teared up. It was one of the most beautiful things I've ever been a part of.Listening to the Birdshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02475749431414457808noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3654618798660691999.post-45935776286531237072010-10-16T15:54:00.392-05:002010-10-16T15:54:00.392-05:00YES!!!

I was not expecting that. It's a true feat to have your audience get so attached to a character within the first 10 minutes. Incredible.<br /><br />and we already talked about ROTK on AIM but...omg yes. I think if you don't weep at the end of that, there's something wrong with your soul. <br /><br />I keep trying to think of other films that get me...Armageddon keeps coming up haha I hate that that one gets me every time but...like you said, it's all due to Liv... :) good post!Matt Bukatyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12738057443018433758noreply@blogger.com
