Saddest Death: Mufasa 

 

 

How could I not choose this death? It is sad, a bit scary when you're younger, and little Simba watches it happen! Also his brother Scar is the one that kills him. I know this story is basically that of Hamlet, but it is so disturbing in cartoon form. I remember crying during this part many times, and I probably still would now if I was watching it. I think what makes it the most sad is when Simba says, "Dad, get up! We've got to go home!" because he doesn't understand that his father has passed away.

A Movie That Makes Me Cry: Fox and the Hound

“Forever is a long long time and time has a way of changing things”

First of all this movie is about a friendship that wasn't destined to last. The "best of friends" song makes me tear up and the worst is when the older woman says goodbye to the fox in the woods. I think it makes me cry because I thought about my dog Fudge and leaving him behind or something. Animals do me in--it's true. The only movies I've ever really cried about are movies with animals (Marley and Me, Seabiscuit, etc.). If for some reason you want a good cry--grab some Ben & Jerry's, a lot of tissues, and a blanket to hold onto because this movie will have you tearing up.
