I have always secretly wiped the odd tear away when watching a movie with the wife that has an emotionally moving scene.
I have watched 2 movies with the kids in the last couple of weeks and shed a few tears - luckily the first time was in the cinema watching 'The spiderwick chronicles' , the scene where Mr Spiderwick(who has not aged) asks his daughter who he left behind(who is now 80 years old) to come with him back to this magical world and she shed's a few tears and transforms back to the 7 year old girl he left behind whilst he takes her hand. blub blub

Tonight we had a movie night in on the sofa and I picked up the 'Bridge to Terabithia' on dvd, a very touching film about childrens imagination, but again I blubbed as one of the main characters is killed off, and my 6 year old daughter is saying 'but daddy she will come back to life won't she?' :(

It must be the time of the year :p

Anyway I have promised to take the kids to see 'The Water Horse' next weekend, god I must be a glutton for punishment :D

Funny that. I am not the sort of person to cry at all but it happens to me in certain movies. Tears are coming down my face and I have to hide them. The kids are not crying at all. I suppose theres a soft spot somewhere.

Jon, I would be less embarrasssed at blubbing over a kids film and so embarrassed by the fact that you though bridge to terabithia was a good film.

It sucked man and to cap it all she doesn't come back to life!!!!

I watched the Notebook the other day and didn't cry. i need to see a doctor, everybody, man woman and child cry to that film.
Hungover and it hurts Why oh why
