As we’ve seen after a million times of watching the movie, Toy Story 3 has a very moving, very dramatic climax and ending, as well as several emotional scenes and confronatations.
Naturally, I cried during the climax with the incinerator and ending with Andy and Bonnie… but eventually, after the second time I saw it in theaters, I didn’t cry, and I have to this day haven’t cried watching Toy Story 3.
It’s probably just that my heart was finally used to the movie, used to the despair, drama, etc etc etc. The closest I get to crying is listening to “The Claw” and “So Long” of the soundtrack. Even that wore off for a little while. Heck, to even get to “close to crying”, I have to repeatedly jam into my head at the incinerator, “This is it, they’re joining together as a family, there’s no way out”.
Now this is just me. Does anyone here still cry watching the film?
I’ve seen it 4 times.
The first time I full-on cried twice.
The second time I teared up.
The third time I bailed before the sad parts.
The fourth time, I only teared up a little.
Toy Story 3 was the first movie to ever make me cry.
Same here. Let’s see, my first time, I teared up really bad, second time, i teared up again, but not as bad, third time, I didn’t tear up at all, and all the other times I’ve seen it I either cried or teared up.
I hold back tears every time. But I just can’t watch it with my mom around because I’ll cry for sure. My dad was pretty much making fun of me the last time I watched it with him and my mom. He said as soon as the clouds came up at the end in a loud voice “Are you taking your Woody to college next year?”… I was trying to hide tears “sniff no”.
i’ve seen the movie 8 times:
opening night, i was a hot ghetto mess as soon as the toys started loading up into the “attic” box.
2nd & 3rd time (still in the theatre), same thing.
4th time (still in the theatre) i didn’t cry, maybe because i was with my brother & our friend. saw my brother wipe tears though lol.
5th time, the night it came out on blu ray, i was a wreck at the end yet again.
6th & 7th time, same thing.
8th time also cried, but not til andy handed woody to bonnie. i usually start either as the toys get into the attic box or when mom comes in the room & becomes overwhelmed.
i’ve never cried during the incinerator though. i agree it’s intense, but even opening night i didn’t cry at that part.
so my point: yes, i still cry in the movie. like jonASON, i’m also going to university next year so maybe part of it is that it really hits home for me.
edit: watched it on new year’s eve with my friends, didn’t cry. but that was likely because i was with a group and many of them were staring at me to see if i would cry lol.
I always cry when Woody is getting in the box and then he decides he wants to go with his friends. I’m actually getting kind of upset thinking about it and I always cry at the very end when it shows the clouds and then the film ends. My sister thinks it ridiculous I still cry. I don’t cry as much as I did when I first saw it.
I guess I don’t really cry during Toy Story 3 anymore. It still leaves a huge impact on me every time I watch it (I’ll give you that), but I haven’t produced genuine tears since I saw it in theatres (okay I cried the second time too, but that was also in theatres). Strangely, I still get teary-eyed at Wall-E and Up, but why this and not TS3? I don’t know.
I just finished watching Toy Story 3 for the third time. Although I now know which are the sad parts, it didn’t stop me from crying. The first time, I only cried at the end when Andy was driving away and Bonnie was sitting there with the toys. The second time I saw it, I started crying when Andy finds Woody at the bottom of the box, and the whole ending part up to to the credits. This third time, however, I started crying when the Toys held hands in the incinerator. I also cried at the part where Mrs. Davis says “It’s just that I wish I could always be with you”. And tears were trickling down throughout the whole ending scene again. I don’t think I will ever watch these scenes without crying…
I seem to be the opposite of most people here - I didn’t cry at all the first four times I watched the film. I was a little emotional, sure, and once or twice I thought I could feel tears pricking my eyes, but I never actually shed any tears.
And then, the fifth time I watched it, during the final scene with Bonnie the tears just suddenly started to flow, and I turned into a human hose. I’ve no idea why - perhaps it finally sunk in?
Movies don’t make me cry. Its not that I don’t feel the emotion of a sad scene, I just generally don’t cry unless it relates to me in a more direct way.
The first and only movie I think Ive cried, and this might sound odd, was the lion king. the scene where Simba is in disbelief that his dad was dead. And it wasn’t even the first time I saw it. this was only about 6 years ago. I don’t know why it hit me that one time and not any time before or after that, but the acting was just so perfect I had a single tear.
another random thing that made me cry, the episode of Boy Meets world where Cory breaks up with Topanga at Chubby’s because he went out with Lauren. again, I had already seen the episode a million times but one random night it got to me.
but these are the only 2 instances I can ever recall crying at a movie or tv show.
The closest I’ve come with TS3 was 1, when Andy’s mom starts to loose it after seeing the empty room, and 2, just as woody says “So long, partner”. but it never actually happened, and its only lessened with each subsequent viewing.
I’ve only seen the movie twice, so it’s hard to tell. The last scene gets me. When I saw it for the second time, it was on campus cinema, so I think I was just distracted by other people; if I was watching it the comfort of my own home, I probably would have been a blubbering idiot.
Now, “Married Life”… that will always cause my eyes to well up with tears.
Kyle, even though this has nothing to do with Toy Story, I love Boy Meets World!! That was one of the few non-animated shows I actually used to watch. XD
Honestly, as weird as it is, I cry more every time I watch the movie. I guess I’m finally getting attached/used to the movie as it is.
Frankly, if you don’t cry when watching this movie, you should probably check your pulse, just to be on the safe side. It’s not quite an xkcd-spambot-detection-quality tearjerker, but it’s very, very close.
Personally, I cry every time I watch TS3, and while many movies can make me cry, few can do it so consistently.
