To cry watching toy story 3!

[littlemisssunny]

Ok so I know I am pathetic, but I think it's because it's about children growing up and leaving home and even though mine are only little, it still makes me emotional!

I think I need to get a grip!!

I got caught off guard by the ending last week. It's so sad!

My dd is highly amused by the fact that her strong, controlled mother howled like a baby at the incinerator scene in ts3. And I still cry at the end of lady and the tramp when ole reliable gets run over by the carriage. And, of course, when mummy dumbo sings to her baby from inside the cage.

I did - think it was because I was 10 weeks preg at the time and kept thinking I watched the first film when I was 8 and now here I am watching the last film at 23 with my son and someday he's going to be out in that big wide world just like Andy.
I found some of the bits in the 2nd film sad too.

I did. Ds only managed an hour as he was also traumatised. Sadly he is burdened with his mothers sentimentality. I can't bring myself to watch the rest. I also blubbed at Jessie's story. And was in bits when our dearly loved and played with Buzz's leg fell off. Sniff.

OP you are not alone!
But, as many others have said, Up is devastating! It completely took me by surprise when I watched it with ds, and I couldn't contain my sobs for the first 20 minutes-make sure you have tissues/a stiff drink handy!

I never used to cry at films before having the DC's. It's all their fault! I saw TS3 at the cinema and cried from the incinerator to the end. DS seems to have the crying gene. Tangled, Ponyo, Charlotte's Web and that is just this holiday!

A word of warning with Up. I cried my way through the first heartbreaking 20 mins so thought I could cope with the rest. Nope, I cried at two other places also.

YANBU. I bawled at TS3, TS2 and Tangled and I sobbed in the cinema at The Lorax last week too.

Ok, so I'm a big burly beardy bloke (extra points for alliteration) and I blubbed at the incinerator hand holding.

I also cried when they shredded boo's door in monsters inc.

And at the start of up.

No one likes to see a guy with a big beard cry :(

How about Toy Story 2 when Jessie goes missing, is found and played with, then left at the Charity box? The song...DD was v little, but understood what was going on, and sobbed her heart out. We just cried and cried, cuddled up in the sofa. TS3 came out the summer she started school. The ending really hit home and I realised that my baby was growing up.

That bit in Toy Story 2 with Jessie's past cockypants is what made me determined NEVER to part with my loved toys (I was mid teens when that film came out). I kept my faves and now my DD plays with them . When she's too old for them I'll save them for whoever in my house comes next - another child or grandchild .

I cry like a baby at toy story 3. It's the end when Andy plays with Woody one last time and he says 'thanks guys' before driving off, and woody sitting up as he drives away saying 'so long partner' or something....

Breaks my heart!!

I cried, my son was preparing for Uni when it came out so it felt really close to home, he also found it emotional - as did his friends! He loved Toy Story when he was little, I remember buying him a Woody toy because his first school report was so good. We've still got the toys & he'll never get rid of his Simba lion :-)

I have just cried at my desk thinking about it.

The furnace bit didn't bother me, the bit at the end where he leaves them with the little girl and looks bad sadly...god it breaks me every time. It's partly because I'm 30 so grew up watching them all, if I had a child old enough to be going off to Uni I would have been even worse.

Four things that completely broke my heart though are:

Blood Brothers - most powerful thing I've ever seen in my life
Sophie's Choice had me holding my hands over my face
Marley and Me - was identical to my own dog dying
Reign Over Me - relatively unknown, Adam Sandler plays a serious character for once and I sobbed out loud.

*back sadly

I refuse to watch 'Marley and me' although the kids have it.

'The Lion King' destroys me....

I think I may make an informed choice not to watch 'Toy Story 3' based on this thread.

I have to confess I also cried at the last ever episode of friends! I would rather be like that than have a heart of stone though, my husband couldn't understand why I was crying at a cartoon film, I tried to explain its about what it represents but he just doesn't get it!!

How about the last chapter in Winnie the Pooh, where Pooh Bear realises Christopher Robin is growing up, and he pledges to wait for him even when he is 100....

I cried too (but then that's not unusual ) and my BF definitely swallowed hard and "had something in his eye"

Even my 8yr old ds cried at the end

I sobbed at the furnace part and at the end, dd1 was a bit "it's not real mum"
