@Norse A message which was apparently COMPLETELY unintentional

I'm a girl, so I am socially and culturally allowed to cry in movies. Except I'm kind of cold-hearted, so the only movie I remember REALLY crying in was Up. I was bawling man. For a good five minutes too. Although I've gotten teary-eyed at a lot of different movies as well.

@Ginger: I have a hard time buying that. If you make a movie with the premise "people screwed the earth to the point that it's unliveable", you have to be aware that people are going to see an ecological message. Heck, I've seen people pull pro-environment stuff out of weirder things.

Eh, WALL-E did have its moments. I'm surprised you liked it, ginger, since you're a huge fan of villains.

Anyway, one movie I thought was much too Anvilicious was Happy Feet. The plot bounced around too much, between a coming-of-age story and environmental/liberal film.

The reveal of the villain in Up made me laugh actually. His Face Heel Turn was SO abrupt it was hilarious.

and nope, didn't cry at Up either

Now that I think about it, the mane six are bridesmaids. Does this confirm that they're basically marriage age (which is probably stereotypically 18-25)?

@Ginger: Wait, what? You're saying the environmental message in that movie wasn't intended? You're gonna need to give me a quote from somebody on that, cause I find it hard to believe that wasn't intentional.

#162810 Seraphem Thu, 19th Apr '12 6:12:30 PM from Delamare

Yeah Happy Feet was fun, right up until humans showed up, then it just got...huh!?

@Crow: I believe it was mentioned that the reason for the dead Earth was simply for a setting that would feature robots or something, I can't remember the details.

And I bet this was ninja'd.

Hmmm.... I don't suppose any of you can confirm where the canvas used to grow Tom's shoes is produced? I believe it is somewhere in Africa, except I'm not really sure...

And Up was really emotional for me. So Ginger, what movies HAVE you cried at? Or at least gotten teary eyed on?

And nope

Is there some kind of rule that bridesmaids can't be younger? Anyway, the cast age is deliberately vague, but seems to be old enough to live on their own but young enough to be slightly immature. So yeah, 18 to early 20s, or whatever the pony equivalent is.

@Crow They talk about it on the movie's commentary. They were just trying to make a film about two robots that fell in love. I might be exaggerating when I say completely unintentional, but it was certainly a very distant 2nd on their list of priorities.

@Norse Huh? AUTO was an AWESOME villain!

Ah yes, AUTO. I couldn't understand half of his dialogue because he was in such a low register, but I enjoyed the fight scene between him and the captain. I suspected a Curb-Stomp Battle, but it was amusing.

AUTO was a robot who had a personality as flat as a sheet of paper. That doesn't seem like something you'd like.

Guess I'm alone in thinking Rainbow Dash would like the adventurous, mischievous Peter Pan.

Married Life.

A personal favorite of mine, and the credits theme also. I liked AUTO too.

@Syd: No, I can see that. I think she'd like any of the more adventurous movies.

I still can't beleive people cry during movies, I mean seriously it's fiction. I can be movies but nothing fictional has never driven me to tears. Not even... *sniff* the Pendragon books but dear god I would've if it were possible, I would've...

I analyze "Geek Culture" here.

When All Else Fails, worry, that's the 14 way.

I actually think Applejack would enjoy Princess and the Frog. I mean, the main character is a hard worker, which she can relate to.

@ilse I've cried at loads of pony fanworks, but as for films/tv

The dog strangulation scene from I Am Legend
The putting down of the mutant dog from The Fly 2
Sally Phelan from Doctor Who

can't think of others of the top of my head

I never cried during Toy Story 2. Take that!

Actually, Fluttershy wouldn't like Up. She'd definitely prefer Chirin No Suzu :]
