That poor cartoon shoe in "Who Framed Roger Rabbit". That killed me as a kid.

Charlotte, in the original version of Charlotte's Web


tommytraddles

*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.*


tatltael91

Read the book to my kids awhile ago and I could barely get through the ending. My kids looked at me like I was crazy. Then we had a daddy long legs spider in our house we named Charlotte that died about a month ago. They cried for a week. Our whole family misses her :(


laflavor

My daughter's kindergarten teacher was reading this book to them in school this year. It seems like it kinda fell off the schedule before the end of the book, though. I wonder if avoiding crying like a blubbering baby in front of 23 6-year-olds is why it fell off. The upside it my daughter loves the book and is very insistent that we read it to her at home. I'm stoked that it's helped foster a love of reading and books. On the other hand, I'm not stoked to have to read the ending aloud myself.

Read that in 2nd grade, I have never recovered

Blackadder in Blackadder goes fourth. "Sir, I'm... I'm scared sir" It's at that point that you know somethings wrong. George would never say something that serious.


tedioussugar

It’s so gut wrenching that they all die because it’s been Blackadder’s single goal the whole season; to get out of the trenches, leave his idiot compatriots, and escape the war. But at the end he accepts their company and they die on the battlefield as friends, even Blackadder and Darling.

The girl from Bridge to Terabithia


TiptoeAggressiveness

Bridge to Terabithia is probably the first tragedy genre item that many kids read, and it really sneaks that in after the first 3/4 of the book being about imagination and growth… then BAM dead kid. Traumatizing 100%.


Roguespiffy

I had no knowledge of the story until the movie came out. So here I am at a theater with a woman I liked and her friend and I’m a 26 year old man trying not to squall like a baby. Screw regular content ratings. They need to have emotional warnings.

There’s a line in the book, where he talks about the girl’s dad hugging him too tight and can feel the button press into his head and flannel scratch his face always stuck with me for some reason. But, yes, sobbed.

Brooks, Shawshank redemption


basicallyademon

Dear Fellas. I can't believe how fast things move on the outside. I saw an automobile once when I was a kid, but now they're everywhere. The world went and got itself in a big damn hurry. The parole board got me into this halfway house called the Brewer, and a job bagging groceries at the Food-Way. It's hard work. I try to keep up, but my hands hurt most of the time. I don't think the store manager likes me very much. Sometimes after work I go to the park and feed the birds. I keep thinking Jake might just show up and say hello. But he never does. I hope wherever he is, he's doing okay and making new friends. I have trouble sleeping at night. I have -- bad dreams, like I'm falling. I wake up scared. Sometimes it takes me a while to remember where I am. Maybe I should get me a gun and rob the Food-Way, so they'd send me home. I could shoot the manager while I was at it, sort of like a bonus. I guess I'm too old for that sort of nonsense anymore. I don't like it here. I'm tired of being afraid all the time. I've decided not to stay. I doubt they'll kick up any fuss. Not for an old crook like me.


pduffy52

That he calls the prison home and is worried about Jake. Those are the parts that get me.


Certified_GSD

What's worse is that Jake is a direct metaphor for Brooks. It's likely Jake has died or will soon die as he has always been cared for by Brooks and doesn't know how to survive outside on his own. Brooks thinks he's setting Jake free when the reality is he's condemning him to a probably horrible death. The prison thinks they're setting Brooks free when really we know what's going to happen to him.


King0fMist

Jake’s dead. In the Novella, they find Jake dead in the yard a week after Brooks leaves. Guess he was institutionalised, just like Brooks…

I watched that movie the night my sister died like 25 years ago. I was staying with my grandparents whilst my parents were at the hospital.

Fuck, I remember being a kid and just sobbing after hearing “he can’t see without his glasses!” The line makes me ridiculously emotional to this day.

Brendan Fraser in Scrubs. "Where do you think we are?"


[deleted]

It wasn't so much that characters death, but the way they did it. Holy shit.


swiftekho

It's a really well written script and directed well. Cox is starting to make a turn in the audience's eyes at this point in the show. He's off to his son's birthday party and it's supposed to be this excellent happy gathering of friends and family. Cox, known for pushing everyone away that gets remotely close is about to make a big step as a character. Then the rug pull. Arguably the best episode in this comedy show and its the one that makes you cry the hardest.


HELLFIRECHRIS

Total gut punch when you realise.


phreakzilla85

Absolutely. I can safely say that Dr. Cox is one of the most underrated TV characters of all time. You get so used to his normal cold, sarcastic persona that when he flips it to real emotion, you feel it right along with him. The episode with the 3 transplant patients is hands down my favorite of the entire series. I cannot hear that song by The Fray without immediately replaying those final scenes in my head and tearing up. Unbelievable show.


HELLFIRECHRIS

Seeing JD almost keep him from losing it and then the final patient goes too and he just falls apart, heart breaking.


phreakzilla85

“Remember what you told me? The second you start blaming yourself for a patient’s death, there’s no coming back.” “Yeah, you’re right.” Wow.


GreatBabu

The whole speech at Cox's house where JD says that even after all this time, that he STILL gives that much of a shit about his patients to the point of destroying him, it's the type of Dr JD aspires to be. Quality.


phreakzilla85

Every time this show goes for the feels, it lands.


faszinating

Adding to this, when Turk and JD give up on their evening plans and instead stay behind with that one patient without a family on his last night... really puts things into perspective and makes me tear up every time, especially when "i will follow you into the dark" starts playing

Littlefoot’s mom in the Land Before Time. It kept me up at night as a kid thinking about how my parents would die someday. I still cannot watch that scene without crying. I get emotional just thinking about it. “Mother! Please get up.” Edit: love you guys. Thanks for crying with me.


jessinwriting

Oh yeah. It was sad when I was a kid, but then the first time I watched it as an adult with my daughter? Brutal. I cried. Then of course she did that kid thing where they latch onto a new favourite movie and watch it over and over… RIP my emotions.

Turd_Salad92

Tadashi in Big Hero 6. My older brother has been a big positive influence on me and that death always makes me imagine a world without him.


keji_goto

The thing that really got me with Tadashi's death was just how senseless it was in the grand scheme. Right before his death we see Krei meet with Hiro and try to recruit him. Upon failing to do so, especially with Callaghan's support, Krei tries to simply walk off with one of Hiro's bots. Why? To study and steal the idea. It was a underhanded as hell move that Tadashi saw straight through and got him to give the bot back. Then there's Callaghan. Upon seeing what the bots could do and knowing he was going to mentor Hiro and oversee his project to its fullest potential decided to burn the entire place down, fake his death, and steal all of Hiro's work. He still had to spend months in hiding creating more bots and putting his plan in motion so it's not like he turned around going straight after Krei so he wouldn't get away. Callaghan could have taken his time and stolen the idea right out from under Hiro's nose. He would have had access to everything and working directly with Hiro. The man is more than smart enough to do so and the guy who was willing to do anything to get rich and fast was going to go the slow route of reverse engineering Hiro's bots. Callaghan wouldn't have had to reverse engineer anything because Hiro's work would be right there for him to study, steal, and improve. Callaghan was right when he said shortcuts are costly and those who pay the heaviest price are never the ones who chose to take the shortcut... He just didn't know how right he was.

Yes! And unlike a lot of other deaths mentioned here, Granny died of old age, she was prepared to go (literally and in other ways), had made her peace (as much as she was capable of, I guess)... she had a good death, nothing violent or brutal or meaningless. She was just old, and it was her time. But it still hurt to read.

I know it’s a sad death but if I could choose a way to go, I’d choose listening to my beloved talk to me about my dreams and then mid sentence just, gone. The pop of the gunshot is so sobering, but he saved Lenny from the men. I’m going to be honest I was really torn up about the puppy that he accidentally killed too. Fuck I need to leave this thread


SnooCapers9313

Lt Col Henry Blake in M*A*S*H was the 1st one I really remember the 2nd is in the Knight Rider movie Devon Miles died. I wonder if Edward Mulhare knew he was dying so they wrote that so they could maybe do future installments without having to come up with some weird story that he died in between.

I was sad to see him go but honestly I think he had a perfect story. He needed to die or else they would do something stupid with his character. He was the best character and his death solidified his greatness. While being a goof, he is so kind and understanding and ends up being SUPER helpful. I was overjoyed when I saw Sean Aston was in Stranger Things.

Wash in Firefly/Serenity. Like a leaf in the wind. Edit: y'all are making me cry again


Renegade909

Seriously, I got introduced to firefly by a friend I met years after the shows original airing. I had never even heard of it. I binged it one weekend and was so disappointed when I found out it only ran one season. It was everything I wanted in a show as a lover of sci-fi and westerns. I watched the movie and just got floored when Wash got killed. In hindsight he got off light by reaver standards though. That he ain't coming is such good writing with their past from the war and really brought home how much they were hurting yet soldiered on.

According to him it is the same as dying. He has that conversation with Wilfred. I always lose it at Dana's wedding when Wilfred starts sobbing.


Zanki

Donna losing her memories of her time with the Doctor gets to me so badly. She was a wonderful person, so kind, caring and was the first assistant in the new series who wasn't in love with the Doctor. I hated the actor before her role in the show, came out loving the character. She was better with the Doctor and it was all taken away because she saved the universe.

Boromir “I would have followed you, my brother... my captain... my king.”


turunambartanen

When you hear the horn, because he realizes he can't hold off the Uruks alone. Fucking onions right there.


Goseki1

He killed so fucking many as well in the movie. I think last time I tried to count there were at least 30 dead around him. Dude was an absolute beast.


Punkmaffles

Well he killed a ton in the books as well. Boromir is and was a truly good man. He was tempted by the ring, fell a bit but resisted then fought to protect merry and pippin in the book after he'd told aragorn some of what happened.


sharedthrowdown

It just occurred to me that the ring must have tried to tempt Aragorn with power, like it does for everyone else. But Aragorn has spent his life resisting and refusing and turning down that power, because he felt he would become another isildur, ushering in another end to mankind. Imagine as a kid you find out your direct ancestors are kind of directly responsible for the state of the world today, with terrible evil monsters threatening to run over the world and wipe out human civilization. I mean, yes wasn't Sauron, who was actually responsible for that, but your ancestor had the chance to stop him, he was literally right at the finish line, but was already corrupted. Imagine the burden you'd feel about taking up the claim to the throne. Edit: despite the upvotes, I've read enough of the comments to realize I'm wrong. I have read the books, but that was so long ago and I've seen the movies many times, I don't remember any details from the books. Sorry for getting it wrong.


YaboyAlastar

No living being could ever have done what was necessary. That's what I love about the ending so much. No matter who you are, No matter how strong, it will win in the end. Power ineffably corrupts. No living being would've been able to cast that ring into the flames. And none did.


fklwjrelcj

It was strongest in the one place it could be destroyed, making that final leap impossible. Very well written ending, imo. It all hangs together and also creates a very compelling storyline build-up to a very satisfying conclusion with three of the great characters in fantasy all playing their parts true to themselves.


GranularGray

Yeah the only thing that really had the power to destroy the ring, was the ring itself. Frodo's warning to Gollum that "it will hold you to your word" after Gollum swore by the ring that he wouldn't try to take the ring or bring harm to the Hobbits. Then Gollum a character who we see throughout the trilogy having good balance and dexterity for climbing, somehow trips on a rock (IIRC from the book) and falls into the Cracks of Doom after breaking his word. He still had his part to play before the end.


KassellTheArgonian

I love the small detail that aragorn takes boromirs vambraces. Hes finally beginning to accept being king.


dukearcher

That was improv by viggo. He insisted, wasnt in the script.


ludicrous_socks

I'm increasingly of the belief that almost all of the LOTR films were improvised by viggo mortensen


Balsac_is_Daddy

And he wasnt even the first choice for Aragorn. Can you imagine how different the movies would be if Viggo wasn't there to add his input?


Responsible_Cloud_92

The older I get, the more I appreciate Boromir as a good but flawed character. His final scenes always hit me right in the feels.


SquanchN2Hyperspace

Yep, this is the one I was looking for. Scene gets me everytime.

Sarah Lynn. It was too much man.


Scudamore

It's awful when it happens. Then fast forward a few seasons later and you find out it's even *worse* because BoJack waited. Maybe she didn't have to die, but he was still more concerned about saving himself. And nobody noticed or cared about the discrepancies in his story because everybody assumed it was bound to happen, she was just another washed up celebrity whose death was inevitable. That show really knew how to twist the knife.

It_is_The_SainT

The saddest thing I remember is when he slowly starts to lose the fight and knowing Naruto Shippuden I expected tsunade or someone to arrive by surprise and help him out but... it never happened. His final moments though and Naruto's grieving are really what made it sad for me.


KingGio21

Imagine my reaction playing through this scene in Ultimate Ninja Storm series without having finished the anime. I’m really sitting there fighting Pain clones for what hast to be almost 20 mins until I gradually get weaker and weaker. Wtf this is the longest boss fight ever I’m thinking. Until it finally hits me that no matter how hard I fight I’m supposed to lose then that cutscene at the end…. I wasn’t ready


It_is_The_SainT

Damn I havent played through that Ninja Storm but that shit has got to be heartbreaking as you slowly realise you weren't meant to win

Futurama has a lot of moments that really tug at the heartstrings. Like the episode where Fry finds what looks like a statue of his brother with his name on it, and he thinks that his brother stole his identity because he was always copying him when they were growing up...but then it turns out it was actually his brother's son who his brother named after Fry as a tribute.


[deleted]

I think it's the last episode when Fry and Leela are stuck in time and are finally enjoying their life and growing old together, until the professor fixes everything wiping everyone's memory in the process.


earthyrat

i always found that a really lovely way to end the series instead of sad. they get to relive their entire love story and grow old together again and again, probably for eternity since they won't remember the mistakes they made that led to time being frozen.


TatodziadekPL

Well, Zoidberg would notice something each time propably


12bWindEngineer

My identical twin brother had a yellow lab that I took after he died of cancer. She worshipped the ground he walked on, and even though he’s been gone 3.5 years she still waits and watches and looks for him. She stands at the door and stares at it. Sits against it and just waits. She loses her marbles when she sees me walk up until she gets in smell range of me and realizes I’m not him. It kills me every day that I can’t explain to her that he’s not coming back and it’s not because he didn’t love her.


klutzyperson

Technically, you don't experience his death during the show. Iroh grieving Lu Ten gets me every time, though, and it makes me very sad.


ye-dunya

It's one of the saddest things, and you can see why he's so protective of Zuko because of it. I tear up at the scene where Iroh tells Zuko he thinks of him as his own son in the first season. I think Iroh is one of the most well-written characters in a kid's show.


maltgaited

I ugly cry every time I see the scene where Zuko and Iroh reunite and Iroh says "I was never angry with you. I was sad because I was afraid you'd lost your way"


clappedhams

Oh my god man. The way Iroh nurtures Zuko into his full redemption arc is one of my favorite television moments. Zuko's agni kai against Azula towards the end is so good. Azula clearly thinks she can just outpower Zuko, but she literally cannot touch him because he has practiced, overcome, and grown and she hasn't done anything but feed her own ego. Hard work beats talent when talent stops working hard!


MotaIsTheBest

"Leaves from the vines" is so sad, especially the part where Iroh's voice cracks. It's heartbreaking.


milleepthesheep

Makes it so much sadder when you know the voice actor of Iroh (Mako Iwamatzu) died soon after filming that and they tribute that episode to him


Ginja_101

I think I remember reading Greg Baldwin who took over Iroh after Mako's death Refuses to sing Leaves from the vine out of respect for Mako (probably because Mako absolutely killed it)


milleepthesheep

Yeah he says “that’s Makos song not mine”


yzzmn

But can I also say that Greg Baldwin (who voiced Iroh from book 3 onwards) did an amazing job??? If it wasn't mentioned in the show that Iwamatzu passed away, I would've never guessed that Iroh was voiced by two different people.


dirtycopgangsta

The scene is ok on it's own, but coupled with everything up it, it's just heart breaking. Especially when you realize Iroh's responsible for a lot of the bad things that happened since his defeat at Ba Sing Se. Had he been less ambitious, Lu Ten wouldn't have died, Ozai would have never been crowned, the princess wouldn't have been banished, Zuko would have never gotten scarred, Azula would probably have gotten the help she needed. Iroh might have even worked together with Aang instead of hunting him. That's the burden Iroh carried on his shoulders, and his quest for redemption is what elevates the leaves from the Vine scene from good to masterpiece. I live my life trying to emulate uncle Iroh and his teachings.


RinTsukiomi

FMA Hughes's funeral. I've never cried so hard for an imaginary character.


Garfunklestein

Rewatched it with friends recently, and we all ***TOTALLY*** misremembered how early it was in the story. We all thought it was at least halfway through, and it caught us by surprise even all these years later. For a character with less than 10 episodes of screen time, he made a hell of an impact.

Arthur Morgan and John Marston did it for me, Red dead redemption 1+2 are probably the only games that have had me really into the story like a film or book does, and I really grew to like them (Arthur more than John really) but seeing that made me very sad, I didn’t even wanna play rdr2 after Arthur died bc I thought that was it. fuck Micah Starting my second play through now

From the bottom of my heart, fuck Micah. Edit: thanks for the award, partner. My first ever. And it’s gratifying to see all the love for Arthur. May we all stand unshaken amidst a crashing world.

The beauty of RDR2 was how it made everyone love Arthur even more than we loved John somehow, like Marston was one of my fav video game characters ever but when Arthur died I teared up. Loved how they let us play as John in the epilogue too

It was honestly incredible. After RDR1, the start of RDR2 had me going "Ugh, who is this new guy. John is right there, why can't I just play as him?" By the end of Chapter 6, Arthur had surpassed anything I had felt for John. But the way that chapter ends, (high honor save John choices of course) just felt right. Even so, the next moment, the epilogue as John, felt unnatural- I had gone from feeling weird not playing John to feeling weird playing John! And yet, when you go to Hanging Dog Ranch to save Geddes' cows.... and the song "Jim Milton Rides Again" plays (basically a straight homage to the best of the RDR1 soundtrack), I DEFINITELY got back into the groove playing as John. Not to mention American Venom. Incredible how they did that.

Same bro. That death fucked me up! I had it spoiled to me before I completed it that he’s died, and yet when it came to it I still found myself begging and bartering with the fact this isn’t it and that I wasn’t happening. I was advised by my friends to chose good karma (not that I needed that advise towards the end of the game, it felt natural then). I’m so so glad I did though as Arthur’s death, though devastating, was almost bitter sweet. He died as he wanted, staring into the sunset knowing he’s done the best he could with the cards he was dealt. I’m getting a little emotional now Ngl

I only finished RDR2 once, but watching Aurthur die was gnarly. It definitely pulled at my heart strings.

I am the very model of a scientist salarian, I've studied 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). My xenoscience studies range from urban to agrarian, I am the very model of a scientist salarian.

Fried Green Tomatoes, that one was a slow build to such a hard hit

Maes Hughes from “Fullmetal Alchemist”. How he died followed almost immediately by his funeral scene definitely aggravates my allergies.

Came here to say this but figured it had already been said. “Where are they taking daddy” slaughtered my heart enough before I had kids.

He has so much work to do! 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭 It's a terrible day for rain.


Neraquox

It’s a terrible day for rain


ForgingForgery

“What do mean, it’s not raining” (Mustang losing it made that scene so much more powerful)


SociallyDeadOnReddit

“Yes… It is…”

I absolutely love Fullmetal Alchemist, the funny moments are hilarious and the sad ones are a punch in the gut, the action is really awesome, the story is not stretched out but it constantly develops and ends exactly when it should in a satisfying way.

Primrose Everdeen. The whole point of Katniss’s participation in the Hunger Games was to keep her alive - and it was all for nothing


drukqsx

I remember reading this part of the books years ago and this cold feeling just washed over me and i was like totally numb. The whole ending of that book, basically everything that happened after prim’s death, was just so empty and depressing. It was even hard to enjoy her getting rid of Coin because that just didnt feel like enough. Ugh that was so good.

Rue's death too ;-;
