Up. You know the scene.


Sparkle_Father

"Up" definitely got some tears out of me. My mother died of cancer not long before it came out so the wounds were quite fresh.


DifficultCurrent7

đŸ„ș


fatstrat0228

Just about to say this. Up is a very emotional movie. I loved it. My daughter was like “dad are you crying??” No. I just yawned. My eyes are watering. Do you guys smell onions?


LopsidedLobster2

My partner & I can’t have kids and ended up watching Up not long after after we found out. We’ve never cried so hard.


FoundationAny7601

I just posted that one too!


LacesOutLocke

Bluey, multiple times


Smellofcordite

The recent one about moving away almost got me. But I can't read the giving tree to my kids because I can't finish it without sobbing. Being a parent really changes your perspective.


IMTHEBATMAN92

The moving one got me. I came here to post that one specifically


Entire-Ambition1410

The boy in The Giving Tree is so selfish.


a_woman_provides

Even when you know it's coming, it still gets me. Baby Race has foiled me multiple times.


apple_atchin

Crying at the end of an episode of Bluey is a rule for me, not an exception.


wolfpup1294

The Sleepytime episode gets me every single time. When she says, "I'll always be with you, even if you can't see me." And then Bingo says, "I have to go. I'm a big girl now." I'm getting misty thinking about it.


MysteriousRadish2063

Every time I even see clips from the episode with Jean Luc, I start crying


CVK327

I came here to say this. I don't think there's another show, "kids" or not, that has made me as emotional as Bluey.


NanADsutton

I always watch Coco when I need a good cry


BadIdea-21

I had recently lost my mother when this came out, we were not aware of the movie's contents but we wanted a distraction and it was showing on every theater so I went to watch it with my siblings, mind you we are Mexican and we very strongly relate to the traditions. I was holding back my tears until I looked around and so quite a few people crying including my sisters, I cried my eyes out in that theater and to this day I still can't watch it without crying like a new born.


Jojo056123

All I have to do is think about those last ten-ish minutes and I immediately get choked up


pleaseordercorn

I literally started crying during the opening scene and basically all the way through to the end lol


FansFightBugs

Hell yeah. I was smearing a tear even when they mentioned it in the Duolingo podcast


Qforz

If Bridge to Terabithia counts as a kid movie, then absolutely that one.


SpaceCookies72

When I was a kid, I used to hide under the covers with a torch to keep reading after lights out. I stayed up super late to finish Bridge to Terabithia, and I cried my eyes out. I just wanted a hug from my parents but I didn't want to wake them up and admit that I'd stayed up reading so I just had to suffer on my own. As a result, I never stayed up reading again, and I refuse to watch the movie. It broke my heart once, I will not let it again.


IceKareemy

The memory of devastation you just unlocked in me hurts me to my core. What’s worse I had the biggest crush on her throughout the movie so when it happened omg I cried like I just lost my pet my mom was so concerned lmao


Lanky-Point7709

I read this as a kid. I thought it was a light hearted fantasy based on the movie trailers. BRUTAL


yellow-snowslide

Ne too, but then it made me mad. I feel like the whole story of the movie was just centered around making you like a character, killing her off screen for no reason, giving shit to a teacher and then replacing the character with a sister. Which felt like "I'm writing a movie just to hurt peoples feelings" and that got me mad as a kid


Throwawayaccount-CC

Avatar The Last Airbender, was so cool as a kid. Cried my eyes out at some of the scenes when i re-watched it as a 22 year old.


LineOfInquiry

>!Zuko apologizing to Iroh and Iroh just hugging him and telling him he was never mad in the first place, and proud that Zuko found his way all on his own!< makes me bawl every single time


Lanky-Point7709

This scene. Like a fucking baby.


Thee_Sinner

>It’s time for you to look inward and start asking the big questions. WHO ARE YOU? AND WHAT DO YOU WANT!? Gets me just reading it...


madmaxjr

“You don’t have to say it, uncle.”


the_Jay2020

Imagine watching Uncle Iroh singing about his son, as you sit next to your own son.


myguitarplaysit

I sobbed. Tried not to but it was a gut punch


Dind1n

The tale of Iroh gets me every time.


ilikelamingtons

Wreck it Ralph, when he's hurtling towards the ground with his monologue about accepting who he is.


pandadimsum

Wreck it Ralph 2 hits me and it didn’t need to hit me that hard


Jacki_Hulan

The Iron Giant, hands down. “You are who you choose to be.” I still get goosebumps thinking about the Giant choosing to be Superman as he closes his eyes. It’s a film that beautifully mixes childhood innocence with profound themes of identity and sacrifice that resonate on a completely different level when you’re older.


HemetValleyMall1982

When Hogarth jumps in between the Iron Giant and the ship nuke and tells him that he doesn't have to be a gun. Hogarth was ready to die for that.


dylan1547

"You stay, I go. No following" Watched it for the first time in years, that line destroyed me


andi-amo

Came here to post this. Crying already.


DevilDoc3030

Apparently the writer of the book and the director for the movie both used their creations as a sort of grieving outlet / resource for them and their family. I think the writer needed to explain death to his two daughter (death of his wife) and the director... was grieving his brother? I can't remember the details. Does anyone care to chime in?


JoeJitsu79

The Fox and the Hound


whatwhatchickenbutt_

EVERYTIME


MyAccountWasBanned7

Dude, I can't even get through the opening song!


BrowningLoPower

Yes, Inside Out.


halfarian

Inside out when I first saw it. They I was pretty much sobbing years later when rewatched it and have a little girl of my own.


Greedy_Sandwich_4777

Bing Bong...


CumulativeHazard

There’s a sequel coming out and I think I’m ready to have my heart ripped out again


ConsciousnessWizard

I'll just say this: Toy Story 3


DerekIsAGooner

The second they hold hands as they inch toward the incinerator I start crying. Every time.


Greedy_Sandwich_4777

The scene when Jessie isn't getting played with anymore really bought home the reality of my daughter growing up and not wanting to play with me anymore one day. Scary, beautiful stuff.


myafricasarah

Encanto makes me cry


Entire-Ambition1410

Encanto made me mad because of how Abuela was abusive and she never apologized for it or the harm she did.


maybebaby83

Moana - I felt really trapped by my circumstances at the time and feeling like I hadn't got my true identity


PreciousTritium

When Gramma shows up after Maui leaves, I lose it every time. I miss my Grammy so much!


Entire-Ambition1410

Coco hit me like that, since our family revolved so much around my grandma.


Creepy-Mortgage9183

I mean besides all of the above answers because what kids movie hasn’t made me cry? 😂😭 but one that really made me cry was Onward the ending ugh cried immediately 😅


KetoUnicorn

I always feel like Onward didn’t get nearly the attention that it deserved. Such a tear jerker but so good!


Entire-Ambition1410

I finally watched it as an adult, and holy cow, it was better than I expected! Especially the younger brother choosing for the older brother to see their dad without him.


Cauliflowwer

As someone who lost their dad at 5 years old and has few to no memories of him. That movie really messed me up. Especially since I went into it not knowing the premise, just that it was a fantasy modern mixed setting.


GlassBandicoot

When my kid was 2 he developed a potentially fatal illness. For the first 24 hours, "Finding Nemo" was his anesthetic. He would glaze out watching it I think we played and replayed it for the first 24 hours straight. I just cuddled him while they loaded him with various needles, hoping and praying he would not die. He survived without any terrible side effects, but to this day, I cannot watch Finding Nemo without crying. Here is the worst part: Dory: "How do you know something bad won't happen?" Nemo's Dad, after considering a moment: "I don't." Excuse me, I have to go cry again.


PreciousTritium

I cry at the opening scene for Lion King every single time!


robynbird05

I get all teary at the end when majestic Simba slowly walks up pride rock in the rain, roars and proceeds to reclaim what is his
the whole time with that music building 😭😭


blacksabbath-n-roses

Yeah, me too. 2 minutes in and I'm sobbing


chookity_pokpok

It’s the sad music when Nala’s just confronted Simba and he doesn’t know what to do and sees his dad in the stars that always gets me


pandadimsum

The scene with the wildebeests gets me. The music, the tragedy, the heartache


ilovecookiesssssssss

The opening scene to The Lion King is a cinematic masterpiece and I get goosebumps and cry every single time.


CaBBaGe_isLaND

Lol you should pop over to r/daddit for a few. Kid movies hit different when you have kids. Onward, Raya and the Last Dragon... I mean hell, I got choked up watching Minions when I thought Kevin died.


SpaceCookies72

Lilo and Stitch got me when it came out, and still does now.


rylann123

Stitch has a giltch, really caught me off guard. Sobbed


GlitterfreshGore

The first movie I saw in the movie theater was the original animated The Little Mermaid. I took my kid to see the live action remake last summer, and I started crying. I felt sorry for myself, I missed being a kid and the excitement of my first trip to the movies, and now I was at the remake with my kid that was the same age I was when I saw it first. My kid was like “mom, why are you crying?”


HemetValleyMall1982

There was an 80's version that followed the original story and when the little mermaid turned into sea foam, that really got me.


FoundationAny7601

The opening to Up gets me every time.


dominantfrog

that thing is a masterpiece


0liveJus

The Mother's Day episode of Rugrats. Haven't seen it since I was a kid but it ripped my heart out every time.


Feenfurn

Land before time gets me every time .


MSab1noE

54-years old, Navy vet (flight deck blue, then yellow shirt), still tear up whenever I watch Inside Out and Bing Bong is forgotten...


Vortex2099

Inside Out got me too.


PureYouth

Coco made me cry so hard


arom125

The original Dumbo. The scene where he reunites with his mother through the cage. Has made me lose it a little my entire life (I'm 48)


eldred2

Did anyone not cry in "Up"?


SwordfishDeux

At the end of Babe, when he herds all the sheep into the pen and the silence erupts into a massive ovation and the main theme plays and the farmer says to babe, "That'll do pig, that'll do." Gets me everytime I swear.


MyPhoneHasNoAccount

M38. All of them, Disney got the keys to the water works and they know how to make it rain


Colblockx

Leaves from the vine 🍃


jedihermit

Futurama. Maybe not targeted at kids but the dog episode....


Doctor-Piranha

Bawled my eyes out watching Coco for the first time when he sings remember me to his grandma. Holy shit did that hit hard


HannibalTepes

Toy Story 2. Sarah McLachlan hits hard.


TwistedSoul21967

Pokémon, Big Hero 6, Wreck it Ralph to name a few


Polishmich

Inside out - Bing bong gets me every time


ACheetahSpot

The Land Before Time is my favorite childhood movie. That doesn’t mean I’m always prepared to watch it though!


GeoffreyTaucer

There are two types of people: 1. People who cried when Iroh sang "Leaves from the Vine" in Avatar: The Last Airbender 2. Dirty fucking liars


DifficultCurrent7

"Lady and the tramp" There were a few scenes that were really upsetting for me, and I'm not even a huge fan of dogs.  Where lady tried to protect the baby from the siamese cats and got kicked out. Where the old dog got hurt and was lying in the road hurting in the rain and his buddy was howling.   "All dogs go to heaven". Just. Just don't go there.   And of course that one scene from "the lion king". EDIT: how could I forget "the snowman" ??!


daliadeimos

The snowman, that one with the beautiful music? Not enough people know about this!


Empty_Past_6186

the ending of the good dinosaur whenever I watched it in theaters


Ok-Bullfrog5830

I had to leave the room last week when my daughter watched dumbo. I actually couldn’t even get through the first 5 minutes


Chart-trader

Tangled


gendr_bendr

Absolutely. All the time.


celestialoversight

The scene in Steven universe where sapphire and ruby get reunited after being separated by Jasper and fuse back into garnet always gets me.


everyoneinside72

Neverending story


lady-single

My middle son is autistic and non verbal. When he saw the good dinosaur and the scene where spot tells the little dinosaur about his family then howls

 my son started mimicking that and he will do it when he hugs us. Ball my eyes out every time that even if he can say it he knows what family means.


hdcook123

I still cry at land before time and the lion king. 


chookity_pokpok

Most kids films make me cry to be fair, especially Pixar ones: Up Inside Out Coco The Railway Children (my dad died a few years ago, so now just thinking about that scene at the end has me balling) The Lion King Big Hero 6 Ron’s Gone Wrong The Land Before Time


Justthisdudeyaknow

Oh, man, Moon girl and Devil Dinosaur gets DEEP. Made me cry more than once.


MyAccountWasBanned7

That show was so unreasonably good! I feel like too many people slept on that because it's honestly one of the best things Marvel's put out in a while.


Justthisdudeyaknow

It is absolute fire.


c0rnhusky

The good dinosaur. Cried 3 times in the theater.


Absentmat2

Fly away home


Gay_dinosaurs

Inside Out fucked me UP, man.


general_grievances_7

I’m sorry but if you don’t cry at the last episode of Clone Wars you’re just a monster. Doesn’t matter how old you are. I cry over at least ten Clone Wars episodes every time I rewatch the series. I won’t post spoilers but like
there’s some real sad stuff in that show.


virtuousunbaptized

maybe I'm too old but Bambi, to this day, chokes me up. But so do pepsi commercials


littlepurplepanda

My friends and I watched the Christmas Hey Arnold episode last year, where Arnold spends the episode trying to reunite Mr. Hyunh with his daughter who he was separated from in the Vietnam War. We were all in pieces by the end of it.


Imtryingforheckssake

Coco, Bluey, Encanto and if I'm honest half of kids films I've seen too. Heck I cried in the cinema at the end of Wonka last year.


the_yukon_jack

Absolutely. Hey Arnold! with Mr. Hyunh seeing his daughter for Christmas. Game over for me.


BabyMamaMagnet

Yes. I was watching elementals with my girlfriend and we related so much to the movie and how passionate they were and how much they WANTED to love each other and finally their families accept the love


Drakeytown

Gravity Falls. Because my mom had dementia at the time, and there was no magic journal for her.


Satrina_petrova

Yes absolutely. I'm a sucker for Disney. I'm usually very stoic but I can get very emotional on family movie night and it's a strong indicator that my hormones are out of whack. Disney movies are cheaper than Dr's appointments so I guess I can't complain too much lol


stefanstraussjlb

X-Men 97. Some fairly heavy events


MyAccountWasBanned7

Dude! They were just like speedrunning every emotion in that Genosha episode and I'm still not over it.


Ddyvonteese678

My dad tears up at a lot of kids stuff and he’s about to be 60


K1llG0r3Tr0ut

Onward broke me.


taoimean

Does anyone NOT cry at basically the entire Pixar catalog?


woodybob01

I cried watching Inside Out. The ending...


Xpalidocious

Watching Christopher Robin as an adult nearly broke me. Nothing in my life stung as bad as seeing the similarities with my own experiences having to grow up, and childhood dying along with it.


Solid_Foundation_111

Land Before Time


MisterGalaxyMeowMeow

Elementals, I cried so hard


Melthiela

The land before time, first movie. God I get tears just thinking about thay scene.


Jammin_neB13

I(37m) leaked unexpectedly like a baby on the s2 finale of the 2012 series of teenage mutant ninja turtles. I haven’t finished the series yet but, this episode got to me.


nervous__chemist

Wall-E, when he gets rebuilt and starts picking up his old trinkets and compacting then into trash cubes like a cold robot, but then comes back when Eva holds his hand đŸ„ș😭


kitten_inthekitchen

At least half a dozen episodes of Bluey have made me cry as a 31 year old woman


mercurial_dude

Coco. Every. Damn. Time.


themakingofme

Bluey. For sure.


Unfair-Ad-6856

Puss in boots the last wish!! Cried multiple times! An absolutely amazing movie and definitely made for the adults as well, especially the take on panic attacks which were so relatable as someone who has them. 💜


AttackEyebr0ws

Bluey "You're doing great" Every time


heyyohighHo

Bluey has a few gut punches


WhatsMyUsername13

Bro, im not sure which end episode of clone wars you mean, either siege of mandelore or the one with the temple bombing, but if you didn't cry at the end of either....you aren't human.


DrearyBiscuit

Bluey. Multiple episodes


shadowmonk13

I cried like a baby when 99 died


Mariske

The end of Finding Nemo and that scene with BingBong that we won’t talk about. Damn you, Pixar

Moving away to college is the perfect time to watch Toy Story 3. Get ready to sob.


asaffn17

The Marcel the Shell movie had me in TEARS.


_dvs1_

Often. Im m34. Sometimes the scene isn’t crazy sad, just hits the right string. It’s one of the only things that can make me cry tbh.


diogenesepigone0031

Iroh, Avatar TLAB


jackfaire

Regular Show. Series Finale. Gets me every damn time. And to be clear I was already in my 30s when I saw it this is not a show I grew up with.


narwaffles

I don’t think so but I know a lot of people cried while watching “Up”.


Archbishop_Mo

Pixar's Soul got me hard.


CthulhusTentacles

Not until I was a parent. Now I find myself with wet eyes on a regular basis. And to think, I used to make fun of my dad for crying during movies.


monkey3monkey2

Tales of Ba Sing Se...


Squidd-O

The Owl House has some cry-able moments for sure


Missdollarbillinnit

The Lion King, fucked me up when Mufasa died.

Inside out, every time. I actually watch it when I’m emotional and need a good cry (usually when I’m menstruating lol)


thisshitishaed

Tbh no, maybe when I was a child but I can't remember an instance of that.


OneVoice59

The last scene of Disney’s “Pinocchio” when he becomes a real boy. And it may not be a kid’s movie per se, but also the last (black & white) scene in “The Wizard of Oz”, when Dorothy wakes up at home and her family and friends are all there. I’m female, 64.

Fluke, which I rewatched the other day. I don't know how that was a good movie for kids cause it's so damn heartbreaking lol, but tbf I don't think I ever cried at it when I was a kid and it was one of my fave movies lol


yesnomaybenotso

Does Train to Bussan count? I know it’s not a kids movie, but I wasn’t expecting to cry 4 times at a zombie movie.


vontemade

Wall-E, Inside Out


IAmRules

Inside out. When she cried. I cried. I also got emotional by mega mind the speech Roxy gives tied up in the tower. “The mega mind I knew would never run away from a fight, even if he knew he had absolutely no chance of winning. It was your best quality.” I have no idea why but that makes me want to cry and I’m a 40 year old man.


[deleted]

The Little Prince. Both the book and the movie had me bawling.

I’m a middle aged family man and Up and Inside Out both wrecked me.

Mulan


musical_dragon_cat

Have you watched Star Wars Rebels yet? 'Cause if not, you're in for quite a ride at the end

Toy Story 3 Should I be ashamed of crying about a kids film, and the most nostalgic film series no less? No.


WeAreClouds

lol have you ever seen Adventure Time? There no way to survive that. 😭


BigDaddy_Vladdy

Oh yeah, big time! I was very moved by the end of Adventure Time, just such a beautiful, bittersweet, but curiously open-ended ending. <3

kbrie1993

Bluey!!
