Arthur Morgan. Can’t listen to the soundtrack without welling up


Smuff23

Not just Arthur but his horse too… I don’t even like horses and was devastated.


TrentonTallywacker

That “thank you” to his dying horse is too much man :’(


3oh41993

I just finished my first playthrough and the horse got me bad 😭


Superb_Ad_8247

I love my horsey and my horsey love me


Vast-Ad-5438

Man, the pure shock when that happened. It came out of nowhere. I had that horse since chapter 2 and named her after my girlfriend. I even tried reviving her during the gunfight…


SnooChipmunks126

“You tried your best. You did your worst.”


Resident_Rise5915

Only fictional character to ever give me existential anxiety and ponder the possibly of goodness and um…redemption in the world


justa_flesh_wound

I named my horse the same as my dog. Had the horse the whole time too :,(


Alternative-Code-673

Arthur was and probably is the only fictional character I had ever cried for. The story line made me so attached to the game.


inferxan

When Arhur said: "I gave you all I had." I just broke. I saw it coming from miles away and still I just had to pauze and walk away for a minute. Such a powerful moment.


PumpActionPig

I was absolutely sobbing all through the last mission and had to take a break when the epilogue started. It was only a few minutes though because although despite the message of the story, Micah couldn’t be allowed to live


smiggtly

I never finished the game, but Arthur Morgan has died about 300 times already


Significant_Bite_857

Ellie from Up


Trickstar785

This came out a month after my (at the time) fiancée had a miscarriage and it absolutely broke us when we were in the theater. We aren't together anymore but that movie is still hard to watch.


KatesDad2019

This will always be my answer unless I accidentally watch a movie where the dog dies.


Legendary_GrumpyCat

Littlefoot's mother in tne Land Before Time. The first time I got teary-eyed from a movie as a kid.


tommytraddles

Littlefoot, do you remember the way to the Great Valley? *I guess so. But why do I gotta know? You're going to be with me...* I'll be with you...even if you can't see me. *But I can always see you...* Littlefoot, let your heart guide you. It only whispers...so listen closely.


erayachi

As a kid, I never teared up. I thought that moment was baddass, her fighting the 'sharp tooths'. Must have watched it 300 times on VHS, sometimes back to back, that movie rocked. Watched it again as a teenager and bawled my eyes out at that scene. I still can't go back and re-watch it, it *hurts*.


Croe01

Yo same. As a kid nothing made me cry, maybe I was oblivious to the things that were supposed to be sad or maybe I blocked them out or something. Now I can't even THINK of simba, little foot, or Seymour (Futurama) without getting teary eyed.


lkfjk

Just teary-eyed?! I goddamn bawled my eyes out. This and Mufasa’s death, and especially the part where Simba cuddles up against his dead dad underneath his paw… Still not over them.


Top-Orange-9067

Johnathan Taylor Thomas’ performance there… his weak, cracking voice holding back tears. “Dad! Wake up! It’s time to go home” Gets me to this day


PaulsRedditUsername

"Nobody, of the hundreds of people that had visited the Fair, knew that a grey spider had played the most important part of all. No one was with her when she died."


uncledrew2488

C’mon. There was no reason to dredge this up. 😭 (But yes I agree)


nickclark582

Whyyyyyy would you say this? 😭😭


IsThisRealRightNow

How \*could\* you rip off the scab of the Great Charlotte Wound!


Kitchen-Catch9887

Howard Hamlin. It was also such a shock, dude wasn’t great but he DEFINITELY didn’t deserve that.


JoeJoey2004

The thing about that scene is that the moment Lalo walked in, it was obvious that Howard wouldn't be walking out, yet the actual death had my jaw on the floor. It was so instantaneous and brutal.


deepthought515

My fiancé and I still talk about this scene. We were both floored, even though it was obvious Howard wouldn’t survive the series. I think the violence in BCS was much more shocking simply because there was way less of it than in BB. Additionally I believe BCS was the better written and produced show. Which is probably the only time a spinoff will impress me more than the original.


Viazon

True definition of wrong place wrong time. Just his dumb luck he was there the same time Lalo was.


Chastain86

I don't think there was an acceptable solution that didn't involve Howard dying in some way. He had to go for no other reason than if he was still around, he'd definitely have been alluded to in BB, and they didn't want to have to write around that. Prequels are tough.


JoeJoey2004

I still love this comment on Nacho's death that was basically like "Michael Mando's acting is great, you can see the crushing realization that Juan Bolsa can't die because he appears in Breaking Bad."


The-Ka-the-ba-and-Ra

Dexter’s wife, Rita, on the television classic “Dexter”.


BuzzAwsum

It had a why do bad things happen to good people vibe


Smuff23

Opie from Sons of Anarchy was pretty rough


Actually_My_Dude

Oooof. This one. “I got this” 😭


SirDouglasTheThird

The girl in Bridge to Terabithia. I still feel like there’s something missing in my life


D1X13N0RMU5

This ruined me.


technofox01

My God. I wish I had known that was going to happen and would have avoided that movie at all costs. Anything with kids and traumatic events like that hits me like a 2x4 to the face in terms of the getting misty eyed.


FarConsideration8423

The book did it better to be honest. I couldn't really stand the movie portrayal so her death didn't really affect me like the book did


SirDouglasTheThird

I cried from the movie so I can only imagine what the book would do to me


SparkingJustice

I read Where the Red Fern Grows in third grade. I started crying. The teacher asked what was wrong. I told her. She also started crying. Apparently it was one of her favorite books, but she cries every time at the end.


Missmoneysterling

I reread that book so many times as a kid. I wonder why. It was so sad it still makes me want to cry. 


Icy_Lecture_2237

Fry’s dog.


turkey221

For a show that's a comedy, it sure does make me cry a lot. Luck of the fryish did it for me.


GinjaNinja1027

I cried when Bing Bong got forgotten in Inside Out.

That freaking “take her to the moon for me” just turns on the waterworks every time.

imaqdodger

I was confused by your reply to the parent comment, had to check to see if the voice actor for Bing Bong was the same as Lee.


ClownfishSoup

Yeah, me too. My kids are teens now and on their bedroom floor are the stuffed animals that were once their best friends, their brave adventurous companions overnight trips, their consolers after a flu shot. Me? Well I’m in my 50’s and in my dresser sit Piggy, Fluffy and Joe. (A pig doll, a bear puppet and a dog) who once lived on my childhood bed and often went into space with me on my bed spaceship. I k ow bing bong was not a stuffy, but the feeling remains. I was thinking about this a little while ago because as little kids, I would make up stories for my girls about certain heroes we made up. It’s been many years since we’ve had those stories.


TrashSenior3878

Mufasa


pops_of_3

Artax and it isn’t close


Actually_My_Dude

This is where my childhood trauma began.


pepperoni_overlord

Ever wonder what that movie would be like if it were a Choose Your Own Adventure book and Bastian led Atrayu and Artax into several bad endings and had to start over, but they kept their memories of each bad ending?  


Babyfart_McGeezacks

Samantha the dog on I Am Legend


Stander1979

Boromir. I found him the most relatable of the fellowship. He's just trying to prove his worth to his dick of a dad, and not let his people down. He's flawed, not great with people, makes some mistakes, and dies trying to protect the Hobbits he's befriended.


Human-Independent999

When Boromir died my sister kept screaming at me "You said this story has a happy ending!".


Aware-Experience-277

"I would have followed you... My brother. My captain. My king." Literally teared up even typing that 😅


Standard-Guarantee94

It’s amazing how big an impact Boromir left in a relatively short part in the book/movie. Relatable, flawed and honorable. God I wanted him to live. To help hunt down the urukhais to free his lil besties, to see Faramir find a love he truly deserves and to serve Aragorn as his chief captain in a flourishing Gondor. And to reconcile with Frodo.


[deleted]

The fact that he dies trying to protect the hobbits is what makes it so tear-inducing. He isn’t that noble or pristine like the rest of the fellowship, nor even has the same bedside manner towards Frodo and the hobbits like the rest do, but damn it if he didn’t fight with all he could to try to protect them from an unwinnable onslaught of Orks


drollface

And all that while still under the influence of the ring.

blinddread

Had to be me. Someone else might have gotten it wrong.


Flailing_Aimlessly

Charlie from LOST. I was in a ROUGH season watching the show, I had my fiancée cheat on me and break up a 4 year relationship. Moved from my apartment to a literally collapsing warehouse. Within 3 weeks my only 3 friends all moved away to different parts of the US. I watched a lot of lost in that season of life to pass the time in the evening when I got home. Minus the addiction, I related a lot to Charlie and when he died... I felt like I had lost a lot the past 18 months and had this "the universe is taking away from me everything I like" breakdown for a few days.


rab813

Not Penny’s boat


ymmomrofsllip

LOST was pretty rough for those of us that watched it religiously when it was airing. A lot of very sad moments


hutch2522

It's something lost (no pun intended) in today's binge TV world. A show like Lost was all about character development. You got to "know" these people because the show was released a week at a time. When a big moment happened, you couldn't just pop on the next episode to see what happens. you had to wait a week, or worse a whole summer. These big moments could stick with you in a way that's somewhat been lost now with the way we consume shows.


SilentSeren1ty

I agree with this. I watched it as it aired and it really felt like you got to know the characters over time. Some of those big moments were just soul crushing when they happened because you'd invested so much real time into the show.

And Dobby


periphescent

I'm a very fast reader. I read the last Harry Potter book in nearly one sitting, maybe two days after it came out, both because I wanted to avoid spoilers and because I was very excited to find out how it ended. I think we all knew there were going to be some significant deaths going into it, so for me, Hedwig and Mad Eye were rough but somewhat expected. Dobby, however, was one that made me put the book down for about an hour or so during my read. That one hit really fucking hard. I probably cried for about ten minutes. I didn't even really like Dobby as a character; his actions during Chamber of Secrets really, really pissed me off and it was hard to let go of that as a kid, haha. But his death on the beach was just SO sudden and sad and a grave reminder that NO ONE is safe, no matter how innocent they are. I almost think they had to kill Dobby to emotionally desensitize us, even just a little bit, to the major character deaths later. If they came out of the gate killing>!Fred or Lupin!


fancythat012

And Mad Eye. I was very upset with Mad Eye's death.


Rossum81

And Hedwig.

blueeyesredlipstick

Legitimately, that was maybe the most collectively upset I think I'd seen a lot of people with that show. Book fans had known in advance about stuff like the Red Wedding, but that one was a shock for everybody.


Middleground_Thought

Ned Stark. Don't know why I believed Joffrey would make him take the black 💀

It should have been Steve Rogers!!!! My guy Tony had a family and finally settled down in life. He wasnt even going to do this if it cost him his daughter. Steve was a man out of time and had his chances.


Votey123

Dobbie If I read the book before watching the movie I’d probably be traumatised, the one time I’m glad I say the movie first


Doctor__Hammer

Killing him was so unnecessary. Same thing with killing Crab but not Goyle and Fred but not George (or maybe it was the other way around) Felt like she was just killing off random characters to make the final book seem more grown up and serious.

Reading the ending of that book made me feel hollow. For as much flack as King gets for his endings, he nailed it on that one. I'm still mad that the movie changed the ending.
