MANLY TEARS

[Karthek]

I cried a little during Treasure Planet. When Silver is leaving and Jim being the retard he is doesn't go with him. And then he says he has faith in him with the quote"Look at ya Jim! Glowin' like a solar flare! You'll rattle the stars you will me boy." And then the treasure he left him to rebuild the inn....funnily enough, that's the only movie I cried over.

That scene got me too
I wish they would make another Treasure Planet.

Indeed... defo one of my favorite disney movies and defo underestimated imo.

specially with 2 great songs in it aswell

I had completely forgotten about those 2 songs, and how awesome they are...
If you'll excuse me, I need to go dig out my VHS player and watch Treasure Planet again

end of kingdom hearts one and 2

Spoiler: Dragonlance

When Flint Fireforge died in Dragonlance, there was some manly tears for that old epic bastard, and because I think a few lines down someone said "but who will look after those youngsters?"

Spoiler: One Piece

When Whitebeard died in the epic way that he went as well as the narrator's comment after about him having no scar or damage from running away.

Aside from those I really cannot remember much else. I do know this: Manly tears happen when someone epicly sarcrifies themselves or dies in such an epic manner and I don't mean epic like "hey he fought a lot of guys and died" hell no, I mean "Took inhuman amounts of damage, older than crap and still showing people up while at the same time being a better person then people he's fighting" that, my friends, is my definition of epic death.

 

[Geeky Anomaly]

Manly tears for me...twice so far.

Return of the King, when Theodon leads the Rohirim into the battle at Minas Tirith.

Tron Legacy, when Kevin gives his life for his son. I'm really close to my dad, so that one got me good.

 

[Wushu Panda]

Lion King doesn't work for me, neither sober nor drunk

You must not have a soul!
MUFASA!

My boyfriend has never even seen it, if he doesn't well up when I show him I think we'll have to have a talk!

I teared when I saw that sad scene. *wink*

OP:
Also at these movies; Saving Private Ryan, Shawshank Redemption, Dead Poets Society, and a few choice Doctor Who scenes (2010 Christmas special).

But I cant cry for a while. My jack russel/doxen mix puppy is getting old and i know he only has a couple years left. Im saving up my man tears for when he dies, hes been such a good pup I wanna make sure he has a nice long sorrowful cry.

Hehe you're welcome sir

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=heF_NPJbv8Y watch this video all the way through, and tell me you didn't shed at least one manly tear. sorry can't post the video to the thread but i haven't been on this forum in a while and can't remember how >_<

 

[masterbazza]

Shawshank.

In fact, I credit Shawshank with my last two girlfriends. Girl watches that movie for the first time with you, sees you shed a quiet tear or two, notices that you don't rush to wipe it away in a vain attempt at machismo... Yeah, that works.

i'll keep that in mind

 

[Xenos Eriadin]

The end of the Green Mile got me. I almost shed a tear at the incinerator scene in Toy Story 3, but managed to keep my composure.

 

[NovaCascade]

Fucking Clannad after story.
That flower field scene.

To my credit, that was the only time. And only one tear.

Seriously? that was the only time? I watched both series over the course of about a fortnight and I must have been in tears at least every 3 or 4 episodes. That show absolutely tore my heart to shreds. I actually stopped watching after

Spoiler

Nagisa died

because I didn't want to know how it could get any worse... But then I went back, and it did.

Other things that have got me were The Lion King, Land Before Time, Toy story 3 and the big one was Bridge To Terabithia. I was depressed for at least a week after watching the end of that movie. Dammit, I thought of it again and now I'm miserable again

 

[.No.]

Last episode of Calvin and Hobbes.

Vincent and the Doctor.

England going out of the World Cup on penalties.

Kidney Stones.

It happens, deal with it.

Episode? I'm pretty certain there wasn't episodes, but I know that Bill Watterson wasn't against the idea. He just didn't like the thought of casting someone to voice the characters.

Dead Poets Society

I saw that movie for the first time last night, and it almost. almost. brought manly tears, but not quiet.

The big two however are:
1. Schindlers List: pretty much the whole second half, but particularly right at the end when Schindler is leaving the factory.
2. The Road. Though they may not have been tears of sadness just horror.
[sub]I still haven't finished watching that movie yet. It sits there...taunting me[/sub]

 

[IamLEAM1983]

Robert Zemeckis' "Contact" gets to me in a huge way. So does "What Dreams May Come". There's just... something to Robin Williams when he puts the clown nose aside and goes serious that's utterly disarming.

Other than that? Uh... Oh, Afro Celt Sound System. That Celtic flute and those bagpipes? I'm not Irish or Scottish by any stretch of the word, but the waterworks never fail to be turned on by those. Don't ask me why. Irish Gaelic is one of the most beautiful languages I've heard.

Last strip then.

Actually, worse than that is the one where Calvin starts taking Ritalin. That's heart-rending.

Spoiler

If you didn't cry, you're heartless.

 

[Mr. Gency]

The ending to Angel Beats.
The final mission in Red Dead Redemption (even though it was spoiled for me).
The part from Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days were...

Spoiler

Roxas kills Xion.

 

[davidmc1158_v1legacy]

The Lion King never made for the manly tears for me. I simply fell into a simmering thirst for vengeance against Scar at that point.

Up, on the other hand got me. So did the opening sequence in Finding Nemo.

And, I will admit it, the ending of Saving Private Ryan drew the manly tears forth!

But, then again, the first movie I ever cried over as a child was the old Harryhausen King Kong. Poor Kong, he never deserved such a fate!

 

[LordXel]

Toy Story 3 because of how beautiful it was.
The Shawshank Redemption because of how beautiful it was.
Spirited Away because of how beautiful it was.
The Green Mile because >SNIFFCries like a baby< Seriously, I couldn't take the crying. Fuck you Green Mile, you magnificent film!

I'll also add the South Park season 5 episode Kenny Dies. Really strange that I sob like a child over the death of a character who already died several times.

That made me tear a little. I rarely do that.
The closest official thing to those would be when a dog takes Hobbes.

Apart from the death of a loved one, I've only experienced this ultra-manly phenomenon three times in my 20 years on this planet. Firstly at the Grey Havens scene in Return of the King, next at the final scene in the 3rd season of Digimon, and and of course during THAT scene in Toy Story 3
