Who Cried

[darthspielberg]

I am a sappy SOB, so I was in tears from Order 66, to the duel, to Padme's death. When, if you did, did you cry in this film?

[insaneMoViEgoer]

no. but i have never cried in any other film so i doubt SW would be the first.

[Sidious]

I was very close for the whole Order 66 montage. Also seeing yoda all teary eyed in the jedi temple when he says the younglings weren't killed by blasters but by a lightsabre.

[Cloud Buster]

I am one to cry in movies, but this one never made me full out cry. I got pretty misty eyed (okay, maybe a few tears, too) at the end, especially in the last scene with baby Luke and the two suns on Tattoine.

[Jason Krueger]

I never cry at movies, I just feel really bad inside.

[Sparta*]

I didn't cry but I got shivers when Yoda dropped his cane, and when he said "if into the security recordings you go, only pain you will find" Damn that line was good!

[JBond]

I was close the second time...the guy to my right was bawling. He was about 35.

[Sock-Man]

I didn't manage to get into it enough to be able to cry. Lets say I was distracted somewhat by my girlfriend.
I'm sure if I watched it again I might end up teary eyed.

[flukeman]

I could have cried at the end because I knew it was 2 hours of my life I would never get back.

[WebMonkey]

i could cry cos i've not had chance to see it yet :(

[darthspielberg]

I could have cried at the end because I knew it was 2 hours of my life I would never get back.

Take it you didn't like it...

[Angelixx]

I havent seen it yet but knowing how emotional i always am Im gonna bawl like a wee little girl

[Cloud Buster]

Lets say I was distracted somewhat by my girlfriend.

My girlfriend knows better than to distract me during a movie. Especially Star Wars.

...the guy to my right was bawling. He was about 35.

Whoa...that's....creepy. Might have something to do with what's in my signature...

[darthspielberg]

maybe...it's why I was crying...jk! lol! *shifty eyes*

[Spirited Away]

The only film i've ever cried in is Pay It Forward.

I was upset with ROTS's scenes (in the good way, lol) but i didn't cry.

[JBond]

Only "Schindler's List" for me.

[WebMonkey]

Mine was ET... still makes me wanna blobber....

[darthspielberg]

The only film i've ever cried in is Pay It Forward.

strange, I hated that film...oh, well.

[iv3rdawG]

I cried in The Passion

[darthspielberg]

yeah, me too.

[WebMonkey]

did everyone?

[darthspielberg]

i doubt it. It was emotional but some don't care.

[neo5595]

I've never cried in a movie before, but I'll admit that I came very close to crying during this one. And thats never happened before. So this film ended up having a huge emotional impact on me.

[Brenzi51]

I don't think that this movie had the power to move me in that way. I think that the reason why one may cry is because of the fact that it's an end to a movie saga.

[WebMonkey]

Very valid point.

[Birdy]

Didn't have tears running down my face or nothing but I got a little misty during the younglings part and at the end when Obi-Wan was telling Anakin about how he loved him and stuff. Can't remember the line right now. Going to see it again tomorrow so I'll see if those scenes still hold weight.

[Fanible]

I got the feeling of sadness that would eventually cause tears (could feel it trying to conjur in my eyes, but didn't quite) durring the Order 66 montage.

[PsychoMike]

I was alittle sad at the end of the movie... but no where near crying. I never felt close to any of the charecters to cause me to cry. I blame it on the ADD approach to the final movies.

[JBond]

...and at the end when Obi-Wan was telling Anakin about how he loved him and stuff. Can't remember the line right now.

Oh man was I annoyed in the theater, I loved the line as well when he said "You were my brother, I loved you" (or close to that). But what happens in the theater? A couple of guys in front of me laugh cause a guy told another guy that he loved him, totally ruined it for me, I wanted to punch them in the back of their heads.

[darthspielberg]

I was just saddend by the last half an hour of the film. It left me so emotionally drained.

[Darth Barth]

I am a movie bawler. I cry during everything...sometimes commercials :P

I didnt even come close in this movie.

[darthspielberg]

to each, his/her own.

I hate people who do that too.

Oh man, I know what you mean....same thing happened in my theatre. I am so SICK and TIRED of all the gay jokes. There's way too many homophobs out there, ruining our movie going experiences.

[JBond]

Someone had also recently been smoking pot when I saw it the first time...

[Mr. Blonde1]

I've never cried during a movie. I came close at Jenny's grave during Forrest Gump though.

[cg124]

Whoa...that's....creepy. Might have something to do with what's in my signature...


dude you signature rocks. I love it

I that when people do that. People need to just grow up

[JEDI_THE_WHITE]

Agree. I came close to tears have done so during the recent viewings. The younglings scene gets to me. I didn't expect there to be any dialogue in that scene. When I heard that little one's voice and with JW's sad music. It got to me a bit.

In that scene, it looked the youngling that spoke to Vader when he crawled out from behind one of the temple seats, he was clutching a saber. I wonder if there was a cut scene where we actually saw some of the younglings attempting to fight the clones. Now if that was in there, then some tears would have been shed. Just imagine such a small padawan fighting for his life against a full grown clone with a blaster.

[Brock Landers]

No. No I did not cry during this movie. Not even close.

[equipe]

No. No I did not cry during this movie. Not even close.

I agree. There were sad moments, but Lucas' incredible ability to stiffle actors emotions negated any chance of that.

The only movie I have gotten teary-eyed are Afterlife (where several other students had the leave the class because they were crying too much and making noise), and Empire of the Sun. I was like 8 or something, gimme a break. But I watched it a few years ago with my girl roomates and I bet them they would cry at the end... I won.

[Jason Krueger]

Going to see it again this friday, so I may cry then.

[Underdawg]

Star wars will never make me cry! only movie to ever make me cry was The Fellowship of the Ring, when gandalf fell, boy did i tear up. it still makes me cry, even when i think about it. the music just made it worse, i was just crying, but i was young, 11. BEST.MOVIE.EVER

*cough* fanboy *cough*

[Underdawg]

fanboy? im suuuuuuure. it was just an emotional moment, and i dont find STAR WARS emotional

[straightupridah]

I teared up in several parts but never had tear droppage (not a real word but...lol). Order 66, Anakin and Padme staring from the Jedi Temple and her apartment, Obi-Wan meeting with Padme, Anakin with Padme and confrontation with Obi, and the end of the duel between Obi and Anakin. I also almost cried when Obi-Wan says "Wait a minute. How could this happen? We're smarter than this!" Such a ****ty line.

[FVD]

I was close in certain parts of the movie especially at the end but nothing further. I usually do feel tears trickling down my face during movies these days (It must be my old age ;) ).

ROTK has to be the movie that has really had me broken down. Even the music and Renee Fleming's beautiful voice had me big time. FOTR was the same in some places and others I can't think of at the moment.

Times seen ROTS: 3 (going for a 4th helping tonight).

FVD.

[Drizzt240]

I cried.

You're still young ;)

[Jazzie]

MY GAWD YEAH!! Been a Star Wars from the very beginning and have been waiting so long to see the events of ROTS! That said, it was heartbreaking to watch! I shed a few tears in the following places:

- Yoda dropping the stick and clutching his heart during the Jedi Purge
- "I HATE YOU!!" followed by "You were my brother, Anakin! I loved you!"
- The look on Obi-Wan's face holding baby Luke as Padme died
- Obi-Wan turning to walk away from giving Luke to Beru

And then the tears fell freely as Beru and Owen looked at the binary sunset complete with the Binary Sunset music! WHAT A MOMENT!!

[Cloud Buster]

And then the tears fell freely as Beru and Owen looked at the binary sunset complete with the Binary Sunset music! WHAT A MOMENT!!

Yeah, that's what did it for me. After all these years, the circle is complete, and it's the final Star Wars film. After listening to the soundtrack, I guessed what the final moments of the film would be, right up to the final shots of Obi-Wan handing over Luke, and the final shot against the two suns. Needless to say, I guessed right, but that didn't make it any less powerful.

What I thought kinda sucked was Owen, standing there looking up at the suns as though dreaming much like Luke does in ANH, but knowing his fate really gives this sense of futility and mortality.

[Ramplate]

not for that movie I didn't

[kel thuzad]

During Order 66 montage and at the end every time the twins were on screen, Tatooine was killer!
There were two other times I got teary-eyed during a movie.
Very end of Schindlers List and also the end of A.I.

Those are moments to cry for - this movie didn't make me cry because I didn't feel most of the actors emotionally bought into their parts

[Miasma]

Nope, didn't cry. But it was definitely the most emotional SW movie.

The only movie I really cried at was "E.T."... man, I was a mess at the end of that one.
I also got pretty emotional at the end of Titanic (yeah, yeah, I know it's supposedly a "chick flick," but I kept thinking, "Wow, that actually happened to real people," same as I would get emotional during a movie about 9/11.)

[loyis7]

I was close on crying during the moment of Order 66 and after that .
But when it really touches me is when we see little Master Yoda going into that shuttle and says goodbye to Chewbacca and the other Wookiee . Its that perticular scene that made me almost cry and that music during that moment . :waa:
But the Tantoine moment as well .

A big BRAVO to George Lucas and the Composer for an excelent job they both did !!! :applaud: :applaud: :applaud:

[Lothenon]

I didn't cry. Misty eyed, sure, but no tears. Was close during the Order66 montage, though.

[Ramplate]

Bah! Not even misty eyed - and I haven't been taking my Paxil either

[Bastila]

I got really upset when you saw the Jedi being killed and i got sad again when padme was saying Anakin your breaking my heart and i got really sad for obi wan poor guy, good fight though.

[Birdy]

Saw it again today and got a little emotional again during the scene when Obi-Wan tells Anakin he loved him.

[Brenzi51]

Saw it again today and got a little emotional again during the scene when Obi-Wan tells Anakin he loved him.

That scene takes the whole cake for one who may tear up.

[Pebbles73]

Yeah I totally agree the Order 66 scene and the scenes with obi professing his brotherly love and padme confronting anakin and all those scenes with anakin crying over what he has done and continues to do was really sad .I almost cried throughout the the whole movie my tears where at the brim of my eyes. To many scenes to count LOL.When I go see it again it may hit me harder taking it in the second time around .I will be able to make sure I didn't miss anything so it might happen . I am a movie crier emotional movies make me cry all the time .Even to see someone get emotional and or crying gets me everytime LOL. Oh yeah the real tear jerking part is mentally thinking of what Anakin is going through that he can not stop what he is doing he is spiraling out of control .
Pebbles aka Hayden Christensen Maniac & Ep.III Fanatic LOL

[NightLifeMike]

i let it out when the jedi starting dying, till the last moments of the movie, sat there when the credits were going down, but my sun glasses on and left

[RedVader 2004]

Seeing the jedi slaughtered was very well done by Lucas. It made it a very sad moment. It braught tears to my eyes and Anakin killing the Younglings was a sickening feeling. I really wasn't a bit sorry for him when he did himself in. The drama in this movie was very well done. Lucas created one of the best Star Wars films in 20 years. Its a pitty that the Darkest films was one of the best films in resent sci fi history next to Lord of the rings.

[HeadHunter]

are you kidding...why in gods name would you cry!

[darthspielberg]

like I said...sappy ass person.

[Sock-Man]

I saw it again today, and I guess it wasn't my girlfriends distraction that kept me from crying. There just weren't any parts moving enough. I can see why the final confontation between Obi and Anakin might cause tears, but personally I think crying over the order 66 scene is ridiculous. We saw about 5 jedi die, none of which we've had any emotional attachment to and they weren't particularly brutal deaths. The most shocking was Aayla Securas but she just kind of lazily threw herself on the floor, it didn't look like she'd just been gunned down.

I think the most emotional moment for me was when Anakin saw Obi Wan standing at the top of the ramp and called Padme a liar for loving him. Also the shot of Owen and Beru looking at the twin suns.. that was quite moving.

[rosncranz]

didnt cry but i got awful close a few times, especially "anakin you're breaking me heart." phew! cant handle it.

[DieselPower]

Started sheadin tears during the Vader "Nooooooo" scene. So sad!



Sorry...couldn't resist :D

[RedVader 2004]

I said it braught tears to my eyes. I never said i cried full. It was a very depressing sikening moment. The order 66 part was moving. I think most weren't sure to cry or have anger. Again i'll state it was very well done. Did anyone feel kind of sorry for Dooku for he was most likley used like Anakin was for his reason for turning was Qui Gons death and the jedi not serving more justice for Qui Gons death.

[Miasma]

didnt cry but i got awful close a few times, especially "anakin you're breaking me heart." phew! cant handle it.

Yeah, I actually thought that line was delivered really well, even though I know a lot of people thought she was horrible. I'll be the first to admit that Natalie was pretty bad in the first two films, but I think she improved drastically in this one.


The Order 66 scene was definitely moving. Oddly, I didn't expect to feel anything during that scene because I didn't at all care about the individual Jedi who were being killed, but the music really carried that scene. It was great to have slow, sad music, rather than the more obvious choice of quick, action-oriented music.

[kungfuhobbit]

I didnt cry, tho i guess the closest I got was not from the film but actually from one of the tv spots while i was still in hyped-up mode!

[blueshirt005]

The exchange between Anakin and Obi Wan after their duel got me pretty good, very close but not quite. Ewan looked genuinely pissed/disappointed/torn up while Anakin was just out of his mind.

[neo5595]

I thought the confrontation between Anakin and Obi-Wan was really great. The music was perfect and the dialouge and acting was very well done also. I found it to be very emotional.

[darthspielberg]

^^^^
yeah...I agree

[Sparta*]

I've seen it twice and I never even felt a tear forming......I'm not a big cryer. I know it was emotional and stuff...and it was...but I didn't cry...maybe i'm just a desensitized shell of a human :( haha

[fantasticfour40]

I did not cry one bit.

[neo5595]

What about Obi-Wans scene with Padme, when she asked him, " Your going to kill him, arent you?". That whole scene was also great and pretty emotional. To bad there werent any more scenes with them together.

[Ramplate]

Like I said before, I haven't been taking my Paxil (anti depressant) and that makes me cry at emotional movies - but I didn't feel that some of the actors were emotionally attatched to their own characters - so I didn't

[darthspielberg]

well, this thread was designed only as a question, not to make people feel bad for crying or not crying, so it doesn't matter. I was just curious, seeing as I was teary eyed until the final battle, then just let loose.

[WuTical]

lol @ crying because of a movie

[Ramplate]

lol @ crying because of a movie

Nothing wrong with it

[insaneMoViEgoer]

yeah, i almost cried in "The Green Mile". ALMOST.

[urnothinglikeme]

well wat was the saddeest part?
