Does anyone cry when Pee Wee Herman is reunited with his bicycle?

Neither do I.

the dangerous lives of alter boys is a pretty big crying movie, in the end anyway. i won't tell you why, but when he starts reading "the tiger", and he can barely get through it...man! forget it.

i can't think of any further examples off the top of my head, but within the last year or so, i've found myself getting emotional during movies and while reading certain really sad books. there are no children here, by whatshisface. i forget, but it made me sad. i'm turning into a softy.

I'm having EXACTLY the sae problem. I cried at the end of Requiem For A Dream, Donnie Darko and more. I find myself not actually crying but getting a lump in my throat at happy endings and stuff. I used to be such a hard-bitten cow but I think I'm turning into a wussy nancy faggot bitch.

"Leaving Las Vegas" and "Requiem for a Dream" always makes me want to cry.

I was hungover and shakey when I first watched Requiem For A Dream anyway so I didn't fare well on that particular emotional ride.

I would cry if I were reunited with my Pee Wee Herman bike. I am still looking for that bastard. Did I mention the theif also got away with a new fifth of Bombay that I had in the basket? Bastards.

i seem to be the only dame in these parts who thought titanic was stupid. no urge to cry. many urges to gag.

i do, however, recall watching oprah give some poor people a bunch of shit and thinking to myself, "damn, that's beautiful."

Jesus I hated the Titanic. I was so happy when they all died because then I knew the movie would someday come to an end.

I went to see Titanic the first day it opened. I guess I must have been about 12 and the cinema was packed with 15 and under girls and the occasional embarrassed boyfriend. My snigger during the drowning scene unfortuntely stood alone.

I would think you were horrible if you hadn't seen what a monumental waste of time that movie was.

That is what started my Titanic fascination. Yes its girly & sappy & romantic, but so am I. I am actually quite the nerd as well because I collect books on Titanic, facts, recipes, menus, that sort of thing. One day on April 14 (the night the Titanaic sank AND my husband's birthday) I will hold a banquet of the final 12 course (version) meal. Maybe I could do it as a fundraiser at a local country club.. ooh we could dress up... OK OK OK !! I will stop now!!!!
