We all know that anything Silmarrillion related is far more depressing
The fifth battle anyone? Chokes me up every time!

This is longish and says parts of books!!! I don't wanna ruin anything for anyone!!!
I cried when I realised that Frodo and Sam were gonna be separated when Frodo went to the Grey Havens!!! I literally BAWLED!!! I had to hide the book!!! But then I kept on reading the appendix and found out that Sam went eventually!!!
And I cried through a lot of other bits like...Boromirs death..and how he kept on fighting even with three arrows in him...His speecj to aragorn and when he called Aragorn his 'king' I thought that was really sweet!! Gandalfs death..."fly you fools" and Frodo's one tear in the movie!!! When pippin got hurt in the 3rd book and you thought he was dead!!! When Merry saved Eowyn and he thought she was dead...Theodons death...Frodo/Sam and Shelob!!! plus more but I might be here all day describing them to you...but I have a question...did anyone else cry or just feel sad when (in RotK) they are at the Shire and it was after they saved it...and Sam says how Frodo wasn't getting much recognition...that only Merry, Piipin, and Sam were...I felt so bad for Frodo considering that he saved them all!!!

Tear Shedding
 The Part that always gets a tear from me is in the Two Towers when Eowyn confronts the Lord of the Nazgul ... but she did not flinch fair maiden of the rohan ... a swift stroke she dealt skilled and deadly ...... the part that gets me is when she looks up and the tears are coming down her cheeks

I cry about 30 times during the book. One time I started sobbing in the car and my parents made fun of me....But I didn't cry when Boromir died....I never really liked him.....
I cried when I thought Gandalf died I cried when I thought Frodo died I cried when Sam decided to leave Frodo I cried at the Grey Havens Then I cried hardest when I finished the book and there was no more to read....now thats depressing.  KGamgee (crying AGAIN) |

I'm terrible at crying in books and movies. In LotR, I cried:
- When they found Balin's tomb - When Gandalf fell down Khazad-Dum (I cried in the movie there too) - When Boromir died - When Theoden died - When Sam thought Frodo was dead but it turned out he wasn't and Sam was all alone. - When Mordor started falling apart and Frodo said 'I suppose this is the end' (or something along those lines) - At the end (of course) I cried in the Hobbit: - When Smaug died (I have this thing for dragons) - When I found out that Thorin died in the Battle of the Five Armies - When I found that Fili and Kili died coz they were me favourites. Has anyone ever read the His Dark Materials trilogy by Phillip Pullman? If you haven't, I recommened it and guess what? It made me cry! I also cried in Harry Potter, but none of you want to know about that do you?

Wow! That's pretty good! I thought I was the only one capable of a double post.
I get misty-eyed anytime Aragorn talks of how his "time" is drawing nearer....to becoming King. Whenever his kingly stature shines through his Strider persona. That stuff chokes me up everytime I read it. That make any sense? BTW, I have yet to really see any of that in the movie.....perhaps when Boromir dies. |

I always cry at the movie when Boromir dies, and again when Sam and Frodo are looking off toward Mordor, and when Frodo helps Sam into the boat. Basically from the death of Borimir on, I'm in tears. . . I also cried at the end of the BBC production. Then I listened to it again, and got all sad once more. Yep, Elfstone, crying is good

Which one was your fave, Eruviel? Mine was Northern Lights coz I like Iorek Byrnison. The bit made me cry in the Amber Spyglass (or was it The Subtle Knife?) was when Iorek repaired Will's knife but then he left them - I was in floods! Hey, did ne1 else feel a phyically sick when Denethor killed himself? I really thought I was gonna throw up!

My apologies for going off-subject, CBG.
Kwijibo, I posted my favorite part in the "correct" thread. I, too, felt physically ill when Denothor killed himself. *shudders*

Did I shed a tear.
Exactly one. I refused to finish the book at school, but even though I felt all torn up, I didn't cry a lot. My heart sure hurt though.

This Dark trilogy?
Anyone give a brief synopsis of that series that the guys were talking about in here earlier?
Much appreciated. Elfsonte. Davie
