to prevent tear duct clogging

sf_drama is doing an OTT on what makes you cry with links to youtube vids. Which of course, led me to go look for the scene that will make me cry every. damn. time. no matter what.

Armageddon, Harry and AJ at the end.

And comments there have some as well. I need tea, chocolate, and industrial strength porn now.

...oh AJ. Oh Harry. Their love is so right and yet such an impossibly bad idea even by my extraordinarily low standards. And I don't even care. Oh boys!

THEIR LOVE IS SO--WELL IT SHOULD NOT BE, BUT IT IS.

Oh God. I'd never seen this movie and watched the scene you mentioned, the GOODBYE DADDY SCENE and all the way through to the end and thought I'd cried all I was gonna cry until I saw that the Blue Angels or Thunderbirds or whatever the elite AF acrobatic guys are flew over Liv Tyler's head and did the missing man formation and then I sobbed for about two minutes straight.

::waves sodden kleenex at you:: OMG. Ben Affleck was crying so hard I think he was all snotty. OMG. That is like the tear-jerkiest tear-jerker EVER.

::sobs and gestures feebly:: Need fluffy. Porny. Things.

[seperis.livejournal.com]

Yes. Yes. Yes.

OMG BEN AFFLECK. I mean. He broke my heart. They both did.

I swear, when Bruce Willis gets it right, he really gets it right.

::sniffles:: Gosh, and you told me it was going to be all teary and stuff. The plane and the missing and Ben's little face and him screaming that he loved Harry...and Gracie's face while everyone is celebrating that they're saved and it's because her daddy blew himself up. WAHHHH.

I've never even seen the movie and that made me cry. And then, like an idiot, I clicked other links. (It's therapeutic! Really!)

*goes to read something fluffy*

I've watched it so many times I"m ashamed of myself, and I've yet to burn the whimpering out. *sniffles*

That scene and later when they land and Colonel Sharp requests permission "to shake the hand of the daughter of the bravest man I've ever met."

There's just enough time between those scenes that I'm almost recovered from Harry and AJ's goodbye only to start sobbing again.

Now I totally need something fluffy and happy.

Holy crap, I thought it was just me that burst out into frickin' tears EVERY DAMN TIME I watch the end of that movie. I don't even understand it, becaues it's not like I DON'T know what's going to happen! I've seen it a million times! I can quote lines from it! And yet I am always a sobbing wreck. It's ridiculous.

God, I saw this film in the cinema, and when I came out, I could not see for the tears running down my face. Armageddon utterly destroyed me.

I cry during the scenes when everyone on Earth is waiting for the Worst To Happen and then again when everyone is cheering that it didn't. (Dammit, I'm tearing up JUST THINKING ABOUT IT!)

Oh man, I burst into tears everytime. Sometimes I fool myself and think I won't and maybe am teary but not yet crying but when Ben Affleck shouts I LOVE YOU, HARRY, I am a totally sobbing goner.
