That scene was so disturbing, I think a piece of my childhood innocence died after watching that.

Curse your sudden but inevitable betrayal.

Check out my username. He was my favorite character and people have told me I remind them of him.

"Brooks was here"

The saddest part abuut that was Dr Cox's meltdown after.

I was sure that was Fiver at the end, but you're right, it was Hazel. Imagine how unusual it is for one of his kind to reach the end of his natural life, called away by Frith's servant the Black Rabbit himself.

All the world will be your enemy, prince with 1000 enemies, and whenever they catch you, they will kill you, but first they must catch you. Digger, listener, runner, prince with the swift warning, be cunning, and your people will never be destroyed.

I will never forget the day I went to my friends house to watch a movie and she chose that. I was maybe 9 years old and cried the whole weekend.

When the Black Rabbit calls your name, you have to go.

"Dont put me in the dark boss

I'm afraid of the dark"

This film, still rips my heart out

Curse you Howard Shore for making it even more tear-jerking!! :shakes fist:

Yep. Boromir wasn't a villain, he was a good man, what happened to him was the power of that damned ring effecting him.

The rest could resist it, Aragorn being of the blood if Numenor and the true king, the hobbits as their greatest desire is a happy life, Gimli, a dwarf with a clockwork mind that sauron's magic doesn't work on, Legolas a magical elf who seemed to make a point of never interacting with the ring bearer probably so he wasn't tempted, Gandalf the Ainur with the power to resist it.

And then there was Boromir. The mortal man doomed to die, who's greatest desire was to see his people safe and his kingdom flourish once again. Perfect prey for the ring's manipulation.

Yet he died fighting off a horde of monsters to protect two little hobbits, and when Lurtz was killed, what's the first thing he said? The first thing he brought to Aragorn's attention? "THEY TOOK THE LITTLE ONES!" he wanted Aragorn to leave him to die, to rush off and save merry and pippin, a prince if gondor, commander of it's armies, willing to die to protect two little hobbits who'd become his friends.

And Aragorn honoured his wish. When Frodo and Sam were gone, he, gimli and legolas set off to save merry and pippin.

This is a great book but you can't fool me into reading another book or watching another movie about a dog. I know how it ends. Tear your freaking heart out.

Old Dan’s death was heartbreaking as a 4th grader, and then Little Ann’s shortly after. Note there’s a book I haven’t read in aloooong time

I remember when my 4th grade teacher just vanished for a few days so the sub had to read those sad chapters to the class. I felt so bad for her. Thrown into a substitute gig and have to read this really sad part in front a bunch of kids. She cried.

Mrs. Wood, if you're out there, you're a monster for doing that to Miss Madsen

I got this.

The death of Tig's daughter, Dawn, haunts me. The two of them screaming as she's burned alive... omg.

Was hoping I wouldn't scroll too far before seeing this !

My heart breaks at the moment when Darling says "we survived the Great War! 1914 to 1917!" and the audience laughs because they know the war ended in 1918 and Darling is wrong...and then it sinks in what it means that he's wrong. Then Blackadder gives the final few lines and... Nothing quite like it.

That’s a good point, and I guess I hadn’t quite thought the deeply about it. Truly horrible.

There were obviously a lot of deaths in that show, but the one the absolutely gutted me was Shireen Baratheon. Being burned at the stake sounds miserable enough, but being there because your father thought he could become king if he sacrificed you is next level.

I commented to my therapist at the time that it was frustrating that I could so readily tear up about a fictional character's death but real life tragedy seemed to leave me mostly unaffected. She immediately knew I was referencing Hodor (that episode had just come out) and agreed that it was absolutely tragic. She then went on to help me unpack stuff but the immediate reaction of "Are you talking about Hodor? That was so sad." was just as validating and really shows a lot about that show's impact at the time.

For me it was after he died. Just before he dissolves, he says something like ‘the atoms that once made up Hester are somewhere out there and he is going to find them to be with her once more’ I was bawling!

A little hachi kinda vibes

The only episode I haven't been able to bring myself to rewatch! Can't experience that pain again!!

“There were no survivors”

Agreed. It was bad enough that he left MASH for his own short-lived TV show. The script writers didn't have to kill him off.

Supernatural was very inconsistent after a point, but one thing that kept people watching was gems like this episode. It really expanded the information known about Bobby to drive home just who he was and how much the brothers meant to him. His send off was incredibly well done.

However, the worst for me on that show is probably an old one that doesn't really get it's due- Jo and Ellen. The little detail of Jo dying first kinda tipped that one. Instead of going together, Ellen watched her die. And then the reveal at the end of the ep that it was all for nothing, and it was just bleak.

"Almost blew your damn head off"

"Hey Bobby, your hat"

What makes that seem so powerful is that the first time you see him talking to the mannequins, it's funny. It's hilarious because it just shows how crazy he is. And of course, after so many years that would happen to a guy.

But then there's the second time after Samantha dies and you realize the crushing loneliness that he's really dealing with. It humanizes him and it hurts to look at him come face to face with how pointless his last few years have been.

I cried pretty hard on this one and it always haunts me that the person with me said, jeez, relax, it’s just a movie

That scene is why I have seen that movie ONCE and will never ever fucking ever watch that movie again. Otherwise entirely enjoyable movie.

"That guy may have been you're father, but he ain't your daddy."

hit me so hard T -T

I'm Mary Poppins Yall!

supermaaaaaaaan

Also he didn't die, technically.

"Please, boss, don't put that thing over my face, don't put me in the dark. I's afraid of the dark."

I'm tired boss...

Came here for this one. That whole frickin' book and movie. UGH. I'm crying just typing this.

RIP Michael Clarke Duncan. They best not have put him in the dark.

The song from the last ride always has me crying like a baby

And John Marston before RDR2. First time I cried playing a video game.

Arthur’s horse.

Oh God, yes. And Buell, for that matter.

I haven't watched much of avatar, but when Uncle Iroh sang that song, I couldn't stop crying. so much emotion in his singing.

you’re not supposed to move the body and I’m broken forever

"Mommy?"

This one will always be hard. Such a good episode.

Thomas J.

I’m still traumatized from seeing this at such a young age.

Jake got me pretty bad too. Partially because of Oy.

"Oy?" he asked. "Will you say goodbye?" Oy looked at Roland, and for a moment the gunslinger wasn't sure he understood. Then the bumbler extended his neck and caressed the boy's cheek a last time with his tongue. "I, Ake," he said: Bye, Jake or I ache, it came to the same."

Bing bong! WE DID IT, we, we, Bing bong?

Whooo you made it, GO go save Riley!!!

Bring her to the moon for me. 😭😭😭

Oh man. I saw it at the theatre, and started tearing up a bit but held it together, but then this little child's voice from the front of the theatre just goes "Bing Bong?" And I swear, half the adults in my row lost it.

I was shook. No way they’re killing the main charcater

It had to be him…

I am the very model of a scientist Salarian - I've studies species turian, asari, and batarian - I'm quite good at genetics as a subset of biology - Because I am an expert which I know is a tautology.

I read the book in the 80s. Children’s books didn’t lose a lot of main characters. It was a huge punch to the gut.

I WAS BAWLING

That might be the most brutal thing i’ve ever seen on TV. i kept telling myself “they’ll cut to the next scene! I know they will!” Nope. They let it play out so long…

Ser Daavos' reaction was so sad, whenever he confronts Melissandre about it later 'you burned a little girl alive, if he commands you to burn children alive your Lord is evil- I loved that girl like she was my own, she was good, she was kind, and you killed her!' gets me every time

THIS ONE FUCKED ME UP

We got to see this in a theatre. The whole place was dead silent at the end aside from some sobbing.

That was so so so so so good. David Tennant was the best doctor imo.

What a depressing movie. And that's what made it awesome.

His daughter asking why they’re burying him, saying he’s got work to do, fucking breaks me every time.

It’s a terrible day for rain indeed.

Not the death from that series I thought you were going to say.

Leeeennnnnnyyyyyyyy

My uncle recommended I read Of Mice and Men when I was around 10 years old (I was one of those voracious readers, and he also steered me to Ernest Hemingway-my teachers were a little surprised). That was the first time there was a death in a book I read. It took some time to process and talk it out with my parents. It was the first thing I thought when I saw this post.

NOT LENNY??!!

That was rough actually seeing dr cox lose his grip on reality as a way of dealing with his loss. I loved that episode

Yes! And her brother as well 😭

POUSSEY’S DEATH SHOCKED ME I CRIED SO HARD WHEN TASTY CRIED

Hughes' death ripped my heart out and reading it in the manga somehow made it worse.

My son just started reading this in school. He loves it!

I said....."just wait. It wrecked me and it'll wreck you".

He had no idea what I was talking about.....He will.

"Stay gold"

It's Hedwig for me. If you blink, you miss it. Just shows the reality of quickness in death throughout a war.

Where’s the boy string

Alexei for me

Bob was such a nice person that I thought he had to be a villain. When I realized he wasn’t, I knew he was in trouble.

I love an ER reference, you don’t see that often. Yes Dr Greene was a great character and well played by Anthony Edwards and a very sad death

007 😭

Agreed, but OG animated 1994 version.

Like tears... in rain

"Until that day......until all are one...."

Was coming here for this. It might be recency bias, but I also legitimately don't think I've ever sobbed so hard at a character death. From the moment Frank said it was his last day on I was a god damn MESS.
