Sad moments

[Agent153 50]

Hello there. I wanna hear moments from tv shows, movies, games, or even books that people have found to be sad. It could be the death of a character or just a tragic occurance, share it with us.

 

I'll start us off.

 

A sad moment for me was the ending to Stephen King's novel "The Green Mile". Too me its sad because in the end the main character, Paul Edgecomb, has to live with the guilt that he could not save an innocent man, John Coffey, from being executed for a crime he did not commit. It gets sadder as Paul's, being healed by John's inexplicable healing powers, life-span has increased beyond normal humal limit so he is now alone at the age of 104, his wife died from a bus accident, wondering how much longer he will live for. Seeing his long-life span to be punishment from god for not saving John.

 

I serioulsy suggest either reading the novel or seeing the film version of it.

Sure you can, should have also mententioned you can use comics, fanfics, or other stuff.

And thanks for being the first person to post here. Hope I get a good number of posts.

[Harmonic Revelations 8,835]

The ending of Johnny Got His Gun was pretty sad, then again, so was the entire movie. But the ending made me cry, I mean seriously, that movie.

[MelancholicMemory 2,025]

Let's see.

1. The ending of Rain Man.

2. In Harry Potter, I almost cried when

 Dobby died 

, but only in the movie, not in the book.

3. In "Sons of Anarchy" it was really sad when 

 Opie and his wife died 

 

4. In the anime, When the Cicadas Cry (or Higurashi No Naku Koro Ni) there are a couple scenes. (spoilered to take up less room)  

 

-the entire first arch in retrospect

-When Keiichi  

 begs Mion for forgiveness for what he did in the first arch, even though she had no idea what he was talking about 

 

-What happens to Satoshi

- How Satoko is  

 abused by her uncle 

 

- the scene where  

 Shion beats Satoko in the middle of the classroom 

 

-in the last arch of the first season, Rena gives a speech about the meaninglessness of friendship, which was terribly sad.  

 

5.  

 The ending of Fallout 3 

 

6. When  

 the dog died 

in I am Legend (the movie)

7. The ending of Flowers for Algernon

8. When Neil  

 kills himself 

in Dead Poets Society

[Feather Gem 967]

In the fanfiction Bubbles (I've only read like...two fanfictions) when Derpy is left behind.

I almost cried.  Its so...sad.  She's so innocent...and she doesn't even realize...

 

And then in my own story I wrote, Disappearing Wind.

Its a sad story, but at this one point where I was writing it I just started to sob.

"Daffodil Thorne, don't think that way!  Don't think THAT WAY!"

[Alex The Earth Pony 72]

I was going to say the green mile too but you beat me to it. So yeah the saddest thing for me was when they had to execute john. I couldn't keep from crying thoughout the entire scene.

[MelancholicMemory 2,025]

Sure you can, should have also mententioned you can use comics, fanfics, or other stuff.

And thanks for being the first person to post here. Hope I get a good number of posts.

Oh in that case, my list gets even bigger

 

1. When  

 Captain America died 

 

2. The poems "Alone" and "Annabel Lee" by Edgar Allan Poe. In fact, 75% of the things he wrote were sad.

3. There is another poem called "There Will Come Soft Rains" by Sara Teasdale about how the world won't care when humanity is long gone. It's really sad.

4. The fanfic "Bubbles" was very sad

5. There's a When the Cicadas Cry Fanfic on fanfiction.net called Kokorogoroshi-hen that was so sad that I died a little inside when it finished.

6. This is going to sound embarrassing, but in Ouran High School Host club when  

 Tamaki is going to leave Ouran

I felt pretty sad.

7. In the anime Kodomo No Omocha (or Kodocha in the States) there are a lot of really sad scenes, particularly when it is revealed to the world that Sana was adopted and everyone is harassing her.

 

I may come back with more, but that's what I came up with off the top of my head

The saddest TV moment for me is in the great Anime film: Grave of Fireflies ("Hotaru no haka") - the movie focuses around two children's struggle for survival during WWII and the bit that always chokes me up is:

 

 

 

When the main protagonist's aunt talks of selling thier late mothers kimono to buy rice and his young sister Setsuko cries telling him not to (the Kimono is one of the last posessions they have of thier mom)

 

 

 

So so sad hehe

The ending of Marley and Me, for one. I haven't seen the movie or read the book, but I walked in on the ending while my parents were watching it... i_i

[Celtore 2,770]

The beginning of Up. My gosh that was incredibly depressing for a kid's movie, but then again, Charlotte's Web is pretty bad in that department too. It's a really sad picture, an elderly man looking back at his unaccomplished childhood dreams and the death of his much beloved wife.

 

Another one: toy story 3`s ending. I was holding together perfectly fine when Andy was giving away his toys... but then when he started talking about woody, I cracked. Such a great bitter sweet ending to the series.

 

EDIT: YES! freaking Marley and Me! I never seen it, but I remember a co-worker telling me about the ending. I've made it a rule to avoid "animal movies" because of cheap tear jerkers like that.

[Betez 1,734]

Probably a sad moment was in the season finale of season 2 of Lost

 

Spoiler if you haven't seen it:

 

 

The
part when Desmond finds the letter from his old girlfriend inside his
book. He reads it, and realizes that he's wasted over 3 years of his
life pushing a button.

 

 

This is probably the saddest thing I've ever seen in a tv show.

[FoxyCryptid 4,330]

As far as non-pony stuff, mine would have to be this scene right here, it almost made me loose it the first time I watched this movie:

[BeatrixBow 119]

I'd have to say that the thing that made me cry was when Cedric Diggory dies in Harry Potter. I was crying like heck.      Also, I'm not sure what episode of Adventure Time, but the one where the cookie takes hostages and then he commits suicide.......oh lord and when Jake visits him in the hospital after? ohmigosh! he calls him PRINCESS! AHHHHHHHH!

[SørenWolf 227]

While it isn't exactly sad to the kind of crying, but every time I read the Footprints poem by Mary Stevenson i get tears in my eye.

 

Though I don't usually read poems...

Anyway: I don't usually cry at movies or TV. Though I do consider myself a hopeless romantic, but that dosent mean I cry at movies

[Fluttermena 1,223]

You think you've seen sad things? Watch this and you'll cry your heart out...

I'm not sure how it hits me, I just start crying hysterically. Maybe I'm over-sensitive.

[Zeruis 53]

This is from The Walking Dead game:

 

 

 

-I can honestly say that this has been the first scene from a video game that has made me cry.

[Alex The Earth Pony 72]

I know the episode "I remember you" made me pretty sad. Man that song really made me tear up when ever I thought about it for a few days...

Oh, and the ending of The Iron Giant, was pretty sad

[Skygunner 352]

Ummmmmmm sad?  You want sad?  

 

 

 

 

Still not depressed (do you not have a soul?), Fine.

 

 

A bit more obscure without know what it is,  but if neither of those got to you,  and you know what Watership Down is

 

I'm so sorry

[Shanks 10,816]

The end of the Batman the Animated Series Two Face two parter where Two Face had a complete mental breakdown after Batman made him lose his coin before he could "decide" whether or not to kill Rupert Thorne.

 

This one scene in The Amazing Spiderman where

 

 

Spiderman listened to this message his Uncle Ben left him on his phone before he died

 

[Despair 114]

Oh the feels...

 

The saddest moment I have seen recently that made me almost cry was in the Walking Dead season 3.

 

When Lori dies but not so much that but how Rick reacts to it. To see their strong leader break down and just lose his shit. That and when Jim died in season 1.

The ending of Donnie Darko with Gary Jules' beautiful song Mad World just makes me tear up every single time I not only see the movie but just hear the song : 

 

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GDt0bNNnWiE

 

by the way if you like this song, you should check out Feather's ponification of it 

 

 

[Agent153 50]

God was Donnie Darko's ending sad, knowing that Donnie had to die just so the world wouldn't end. He seemed at peace before the plane engine crashed through roof.

 

Mad World really does fit the ending

[Fridge 382]

Hmm moment I found sad. The death of the Golum Mr. Pump19 is Terry Pratchetts book Making Money made me sad.

 

Other than that I can't think of a single thing... at least not without giving spoilers away,

[Dashie is best pony 9]

I have been reading Fallout:Equestria for about 3 or 4 weeks, and there are many sad things in this fanfiction but I really can't say anythng about the sad moments without spoiling anything. Except there are very many sad moments that have made me tear up.
