While there was no actual death scene, “UP” needs to be in here. The the time montage of the old man losing his wife was heartbreaking and downright cruel. It drove the whole purpose of the movie of him wanting to fly away.
Had that movie on demo by the electronics register in a store I worked in, they had to stop after a few days because they let a cashier go home because they couldn't stop crying cause of that scene.
omg yes!! Dobby's death was so unexpected & shocking I was honestly left heartbroken....I just couldn't believe they killed him, he was 1 of my fav characters :(
Leon The Professional. One of many films that I actually cared about the Characters like Leon and Matilda. The ending get me every time as I thought he would made it out alive and start a new life with Matilda and I always listen to Stings "Shape of my Heart" after the film's ends.
The movie that makes me cry the most has no death in it, but when I need a good cry I'll watch The color purple. It makes me think about how women are treated as second-class citizens, or possessions.
Please no, pleeeeeeeaaaassssseeee dont mention it! Is so sad. I remember when I was a child I watch the one that was a cartoon and I cried so hard end up having a asthma attack...decades later I watch the live action one and CRIED SO HARD THAT I HAD AN ASTHMA ATTACK. I can't even remember that scene and I cry. 😢😢😢 But I love the movies and the book too!

This list may be devoted to movies, but the one that STILL to this day gets me, EVERY TIME, is when Radar annonuces Colonel Blake's death when his plane got shot down over the Sea of Japan when he was on his way home in MASH.
One that should have made the list, and reduced my child self to ugly tears, was the scene from MASH when Radar shuffled into the OR, in obvious shock, to announce to the others that their recently departed commanding officer Lt. Col. Blake was shot down over the Sea of Japan while on his way home to the US. The delivery by Gary Burghoff was so emotional; as was the pan over the main & supporting cast as they each tried to digest this horrible news while still working to save the lives in front of them.
This list is very generational ( circa people born post 2000 AD ) for what has happened only in the more current films & tv shows or ones that they would have been exposed to be having to watch them with family. Or assigned them in school ( which something to make you feel old) that films like "The Green Mile" is a work of arts students are assigned to study....
The scene in MASH when Hawkeye (Alan Alda) is remembering for his psychiatrist when him and a group of villagers needed to be quiet so the Viet Cong wouldn't find and kill them all, but a woman was holding a chicken that kept squawking and he kept telling her to quiet the chicken. She ended up snapping its neck and it's revealed that it wasn't a chicken, but her infant baby. He watched her kill her baby. Then it shows him breaking down in the office after all those years of his mind telling him it was a chicken.
@@shadowmatrix0101 You made a very good point here, however, if I may be a bit petty for a moment, there wasn't a lot of "Viet Cong" in the "Korean" war, and I believe the incident only happened a couple of weeks prior to his breakdown.
I balled for 15 minutes when Mark Greene died on ER. I still tear up (18 rears later) whenever I hear Israel Kamakawiwoʻole's version of Over the Rainbow.
Me too. I bawled like a baby, my boyfriend even had tears in his eyes when Mark Green died. I cried hard when Jimmie Smit's character in Hill Street Blues died as well. I can't deal with the videos of abused animals they show I TV ads for donations. Have to change the channel each and every time.
Other deaths I can't get over them are: - the dinos crying in Jurassic World:Fallen Kingdom, when the island is on fire and they couldn't be rescued - Marley! 😭😭 - Tod's mum, the beginning of Tod & Toby 😭 - Moro and Forest Spirit in Mononoke Hime. I know that, at least, in the case of the Spirit, it is a God of Life and Death and cannot die, but the moment he is ''killed'' always gets me and looks like he's murdered and I can't recover from it - Tadashi from Big Hero 6 - Héctor in Coco. He can come back in the Día de los Muertos, but the way he was killed and separated from his sweet Coco. Great movie
My dad took me, my brother and a friend to see it when it came out. The rest of the movie was a tear-filled Blurr after that. The fact that he was killed and others like Ironhide and Starscream were killed off so they could sell more Transformers toys makes it still sting in my middle age.
There was such outrage from kids that the cartoon series (that was still playing) brought him back to life. They also lazy-wrote Starscream back to life. Ironhide was killed off because he had the crappiest toy that only collectors liked. It was a great movie to me as a kid but the reasons behind how it was scripted fed my cynicism.
@@That80sGuy1972 I'm guilty of having Ironhide as a kid . Shoulda known a minivan wouldn't transform into a cool robot. Remember Ultra Magnus? The toy was a colorless Optimus Prime in a mecha suit. I was done after that.
@@latarribell7827 Yeah! I bought that because he seemed like he would have been so cool. Once I got it I was like WTF? A Prime clone? I bought that one at the same time I got Blue Streak, a transformer that had a head that was easy to break off just by playing with it, and no glue is strong enough to fix where it broke at. I was done after that combo.
It wasn’t Peters death that did it. It was Iron man loosing his Son,Peter had changed him a lot more than Pepper did, he turned Tony into a responsible father figure. ........ just really sad to see it really men’t everything to him. : (
That’s what you get in a Whedonverse finale episode/film- sudden death of a major character seemingly at random. Anya. Wesley. Wash. Paul Ballard. Even when you know the “rules,” it’s still a shock.
I'm 38 years old and Mufasa's death still hurts me to my soul. The score, the emotions everything comes together to make a perfectly heart breaking soul crushing scene.
Watched it when I was a kid, I was already aware of the concept of death by then but I only realised her character actually died in that movie when I rewatched it again a few years later. That movie never felt the same way to me again, I thought it was just a fantasy movie back then.
The death of Leslie is inevitable. Children read the book in 4th and 5th grade (at least I did) and here in the midwest there's this understanding about how his father and he barely connect because they are driven so differently. The book is originally set in the 70's when farmers still had large families in order to help out around the farm. This was this time when farmers were experiencing a need to have the kids man the farm while they had to work a primary job because farming was not enough to hold on to the land and homes that their ancestors who hadn't left during the Dust Bowl and the Depression were now facing that loss. Personally, there's certain elements of Jesse's character and knowledge that the book has that is never fully realized in the movies. However your choice is awesome!
I cried when the horse died in the Never Ending Story. don't give a damm about the kid. poor horse :( also still cry today when in dragonheart the Dragon gets killed :((((
It was not just horse dying in my opinion. I remember when I saw the movie when I was kid. For me it was the desperation of Atreyu yelling and trying to save him. Still, gets me even today at 48 years old...
The deaths in these movies were tear jerkers for me: A Walk to Remember, My Girl, Million Dollar Baby, Boyz in the Hood, Glory, The Champ, The Fault With Our Stars. Of course the ones you listed in your video caused my eyes to water as well.
I have never EVER recovered from Hodor, his death was so tragic I couldn't watch all of it in one sitting, I sobbed so hard and I was so depressed after. He didn't deserve what he got, but Peter also had me crying, so did Mufasa. You just HAD to put them all together didn't you! Now I'm CrYiNg TwT!
I’m not over the death of Han Solo. I was 13 in 1977. I had lost my dad that same year. As silly as it sounds now but Star Wars helped me through my grief. I watched it at the cinema 13 times. Which was no mean feat in those days. Those characters became my relief from my sadness. To see Han Solo die totally broke my heart. It was like losing an old friend. I’m actually heartbroken now writing this. I don’t think I ever will get over. 💔💔💔😢😢. Also I’m not insane. I know they aren’t real. 😂😂😂
I can understand what you're saying. Star Wars helped you to deal with incredible grief and because you've been a fan say day one, you feel that you know each of the characters personally, even though you know it's a work of fiction. They're the characters that helped you to deal with something that maybe didn't much sense and was unfathomable to you at such a young age. So naturally the death of an iconic character hit hard because maybe, even subconsciously, it reminded you of his unexpected death can be.
The saga had ended for me when they killed him off. Except for rogue 1 knowing that he wasn't in it. He for me as a child, he was the star of the saga. I also thought it was a bit dark for a family movie to show a son killing their father.
Tears automatically came to my eyes as they showed the green mile and I haven't seen that movie since I was a kid. The impact of that sadness never left me.
The way the showed Snapes death was so heartbreaking. When he died it was shocking (i mean...not really because I read the book, but the bluntness of it was sad), but then the scenes that follow his death leave you feeling hollow.
@Lebo leigh Leigh Wow. Trigger much? God damn take a reality break and stop watching RUclips channels about dead fake characters in fictional movies if it bothers you that much.
@Lebo leigh Leigh I am one of those "idiots" what the eff are you going to do about it? Absolutely nothing. Dogs have more of a right to this world than humans do
All these years I've been looking for that movie with the little dinosaur and the leaf. I don't even remember what happened in the movie, just that it made me very emotional as a child. Now I know it was the "Land Before Time". Thanks so much for this video.
"My name is Salmon like the fish, first name susie. I was 14 years old when I was murdered" How y'all not gonna include Susie salmon from The Lovely Bones, the disrespect.
Artax... :'( :'( :'( I remember asking my mom if the real horse that played Artax was okay, and how I was worried the horse couldn't breathe in that mud.
@Lebo leigh Leigh It was a harmless comment. Nothing wrong with being bitter over the deaths of characters you love. It's natural to be drawn to certain characters.
Yeah I have to completely agree with you on that one. It was if X-Men existed in real life rather than the comic book version of the first three. Just hearing Wolverine flip out and killing everybody was worth the price of admission when he was getting robbed by those thugs trying to take his cars parts. Next best thing was a little girl walking out with a head in her hand. But Charles and Logan dying yeah it was pretty Epic. I had a hard time watching it
Ben Sullivan from Scrubs for sure, everything about that, the futility and inevitability of death and how we all cope with it knowing it is coming and after they have passed. It was hard not to empathize with Cox.
God yes, I could only watch that movie the once, I had to give away the DVD, I knew I could never watch it again. I think it's meant to have a hopeful ending, but I didn't see it that way
Melayahm01 Well, no... As Takahata Isao and Nosaka Akiyuki both made clear (the writer/director of the film, and the author of the short-story), it isn’t meant to be “hopeful” at all. It is meant to rip your heart out, dance all over it, and then ram the remains back down the corpse of your throat (that is a rough paraphrase of Nosaka’s commentary on his intent for writing the short-story). The Film is meant to make the audience feel as closely as possible the horrors of War without ever once actually showing a part of that war; how war destroys the civilian population just as thoroughly as it destroys the men and boys fighting it. And Takahata added to this that at least the soldiers we send-off to fight a war have some sort of “Agency” in their own deaths; they are able to “directly fight back against an enemy who is trying to kill them.” The Japanese attitude toward life has made clear the salience of “meaning” in people’s lives, much more clearly than has Western Civilization... And in this respect the film communicates something that the Japanese find even more horrifying than do Western Audiences: a Film where none of the events gives any meaning to he People/characters within it, nor to the overall story. Humanity as a whole deals.... badly... with things that lack “Meaning.” All of Organized Religion exists to give meaning to the existence of the horrors of life that are visited upon so much of Humanity. Nosaka’s original story is meant to convey that there are some forms of suffering that exist without meaning that we actually have the ability to control ourselves: War. And as such we need to strive to avoid it at all costs. There is more to the existence of “Grave of the Fireflies” than this, but that is basically the central point: It is meant to injure the audience; to cause them emotional pain that is (to the author, hopefully) impossible to bear. It is made to make the audience fear taking actions that could lead to this kind of event, as Nosaka and Takahata also point out that Seito and Satsuko are only two of the thousands upon thousands of other children who die during (or because of... As both Deaths occur after the war has ended) a War.
If we wanna go Holocaust why not boy I’m the striped pajamas. So many hard movies to watch. I hate these lists because it’s always marvel drama. But I’m not talented enough to start my own.
There are so many great, heartbreaking film and tv death scenes, they really should do a separate list for each. BTW, if you haven't watched The Green Mile, and you need a good cry, John's death scene is one of the saddest on-screen deaths I've ever seen. Even watching that scene during this video got me choked up! Such a good film and so many great performances.
The original death in the comic books was at the hands of the Green Goblin off the top of the Brooklyn Bridge. She died the same way, from a broken neck. I knew it was coming, but it was still harsh.
I see you've overlooked Old Dan and Little Ann in "Where the Red Fern Grows," as well as Thomas in "My Girl." I'd say Shelby in "Steel Magnolias" but it's not so much her death that has the emotional weight (and it has a lot), but her momma's raging at God after the funeral. I'm crying thinking about it right now. :/
Jon Voight`s death scene in "The Champ" is still the one that left me emotionally scarred even after 41 years, none of these other on screen deaths even come close
In Breaking Bad, how about the kid on the bike who came across them highjacking fuel from a stopped train? That was cold. They chopped the bike and the kid up!
Good point that was sad or Andreas death was sad. But Jane? Come on that was not sad her death was a necessity. Jane was a con, trouble and a junkie she needed to be whacked out.
Melayahm01 If there was any example of BtVS not getting the recognition it deserved, this is it. It was brilliant and I agree Geller’s performance was outstanding. They should have received an award.
That episode forced me to feel the discomfort of experiencing death. When my grandfather died, I couldn’t cry or scream because it wasn’t enough; I was just in shock. That pain was too great to be expressed in a moment, it drags out over a lifetime. That episode captures that confused and devastated feeling so well.
Some of my picks would be:- Tony Stark Natasha Romanoff Loki Yondu Udonta Seita and Setsuko The Dog in I Am Legend T-800 in T2 Darth Vader Spock I would add Ellen Ripley too but her death was more shocking than emotional.
I too had listed Seita and Satstuko as the most horrifying deaths in Anime/Film. It is hard to watch that movie a second time. Of course... My Neighbor Totoro is also hard to watch if you know what is really happening....
Two that stand out for me both involve Hospital's 1. Scrubs - Doctor Cox loosing four patients in one go and his reaction, it might bend the rules but seeing his breakdown is just heart wrenching 2. ER - Carter reading Greens letter, it sounds all happy and joyful til right at the end with Corday finishes and you can tell Noah Wylie genuinely struggles on set
What make's Solo's death so sad is it's a metaphor for the whole star wars franchise, because the new trilogy definitely killed any desire for more movies.
I actually love them. Have all the charm or the original 3. I was not a fan of the middle 3. But you know what directors are damned if they do and damned if they don't. You can't please everyone.
Joyce Summers death in Buffy hit me particularly hard You know what made that entire episode even more visceral? The fact that there wasn’t a single bit a music in the entire episode. Just fallout and sadness in all it’s tragic perfection. Even Spike paid his respect as Joyce was the only one amongst them that never treated him like a monster but a person. This episode resonated with me beyond words because the night it aired was the same night my dad lost his battle to cancer. It will ALWAYS have a special place in my heart. I tip my hat to the acting chops of the Scooby gang.
Titanic was a mass murder. Staged by the evil scum who planted that foreign commie bank on our shores known as the Federal Reserve. It was actually the Olympic. The Titanic suffered damage that made it uninsurable. There was a third sister ship called the Brittanic. It was sank to kill 3 men, mass criminals, who objected to their fellow criminals (bankers, etc) plans to slam the Fed Reserve on US shores. John Jacob Astor ( Vanderbilt clan, CNN Anderson Cooper), Isador Strauss (Macy's), Benjamin Guggenheim. Lured onto the ship by a fellow criminal. All involved in that movie had to know this and misled the world with what they did.
There was plenty of room on the lifeboats because the bad guys pushed that phony "women and children first" and many of the crew went along with this False Flag event. The sinking of the Titanic/Olympic has impacted the lives of everyone since. The ship went down April 1912, the Fed Reserve came up in Dec 1912. The 100 year plan to collapse the USA in 2012 did fail though. Stopped by brave men and women. But that's why they ran all those "end of the world" movies like 2012 and news articles... To program us to accept it. Price of gold was $30.00 an ounce in 1912. $130 in 2012. They looked at making a 5000-10,000% profit while destroying our lives in the process. There was even a book written in 1898 called "The sinking of the Titan".
Disagree with Peter's death in Avengers. Yes it was sad, but the impact of his death was lessened by the fact that we knew he was coming back. It's not the same watching a character die for good than knowing they'll be back by the next film.
@@Termite30 Even if they hadn't most of us knew how the storyline was going to end and even those who didn't could probably guess he'd come back somehow. Marvel's not exactly good at creating emotional impact.
Which death bugged you the most?
Looper Paul walker
Oh you mean in films Sasha Alexander in ncis yeah I know it crime drama but it hit me hard then any film
Black Widow, her death is so overlooked because of the end of the movie.
Why isn’t tony stark up here?
Optimus Prime. 1986.
While there was no actual death scene, “UP” needs to be in here. The the time montage of the old man losing his wife was heartbreaking and downright cruel. It drove the whole purpose of the movie of him wanting to fly away.
when you’re right, you’re right.
You're totally right! "UP" should definitely be on this list!
That was so sad
That first montage told a more complete story in 10 minutes than most of the hollywood movies!
Had that movie on demo by the electronics register in a store I worked in, they had to stop after a few days because they let a cashier go home because they couldn't stop crying cause of that scene.
Dobbys death always breaks me, that poor house elf did all he could to save his friends
omg yes!! Dobby's death was so unexpected & shocking I was honestly left heartbroken....I just couldn't believe they killed him, he was 1 of my fav characters :(

I thought it would be on here too. It definitely was an impactful death.
Natalie Portman and Vlad Divac’s acting is so good in that movie.
@@iichristiaNn Vlad Divac? 🤣🤣🤣
Plus how he ended up going out was so bad ass.

Naw dude peters dad was a jackass
I cry every time I watch "Green Mile". One of the Best movies of all time...
Saw the movie at the theater, bought it as soon as it was released on dvd. I don't know why because I still cannot bring myself to watch it again.

I'm tired boss.
There is no denying it. Logan's death hits really deep.
Yeah it struck deep in the heart.
Not just that, seeing him suffering from the poisoning during the whole film was tough as well.
Yeah.... He and Iron Man were my favorite characters of all time
Think about it. CHARLES was worse because Logan was there. Oh man. Was heartbreaking
That felt like the ending of an era of movie greatness!
Charlotte of “Charlotte’s Web.” When she sang her dying song and Wilbur kept crying out her name. 😭
Yeah that was a really tough one
Oh man
Please no, pleeeeeeeaaaassssseeee dont mention it! Is so sad.

Like a leaf on the wind.

I am a lead on the wind!!! It crushed me broke my heart, I was hoping and holding out for more episodes !! And that moment crushed a dream for me!!!!!
Almost is bad as how they killed one of the best Scifi programs of all time after just one season.
I might be showing my age, but Old Yeller's death is heartbreaking. Still tear up and can't watch it on Disney +.

@@brycehiigel235 old dan and little ann such a sad story

Or assigned them in school ( which something to make you feel old) that films like "The Green Mile" is a work of arts students are assigned to study....
That was the first time I cried for a tv show.

I know!! It was ruined after that.
Oh yes, the Dinosaurs at Jurassic World and Tadashi 😭😭😭
The death scene that affected me the most was the Spock death scene in Star Trek II hey i cried my eyes out when i saw it the first time
I STILL cry every time I see it! The needs of the many outweigh the needs of the few.
It's worse than that: "Amazing Grace" on the bagpipes does it for me every time now, whether I knew them or not.

Pretty sure it’s been covered over and over. No offense but I’d really love something not marvel or Disney.
"I'm a leaf on the wind..." No Wash?!?
And no joy.
The body is a masterpiece episode.
I was in the audience. The whole theatre gasped! Then came the collective "NO"! by several dozen. Several tears flowed that evening.
Words that can cause me to tear up on the spot "I am a leaf on the wind” and "your shirt".
That’s what you get in a Whedonverse finale episode/film- sudden death of a major character seemingly at random.
Anya. Wesley. Wash. Paul Ballard. Even when you know the “rules,” it’s still a shock.
Oh yes, Wash's death was devastating, you just don't expect it and cuts so sudden and deep
I'm 38 years old and Mufasa's death still hurts me to my soul. The score, the emotions everything comes together to make a perfectly heart breaking soul crushing scene.
Right, and in the live action version Scar claws his face too, which made it even harder >_

Children read the book in 4th and 5th grade (at least I did) and here in the midwest there's this understanding about how his father and he barely connect because they are driven so differently. The book is originally set in the 70's when farmers still had large families in order to help out around the farm. This was this time when farmers were experiencing a need to have the kids man the farm while they had to work a primary job because farming was not enough to hold on to the land and homes that their ancestors who hadn't left during the Dust Bowl and the Depression were now facing that loss. Personally, there's certain elements of Jesse's character and knowledge that the book has that is never fully realized in the movies. However your choice is awesome!
YESSSS!
Groot's death in "Guardians of the Galaxy"...."We are Groot"
I cried when the horse died in the Never Ending Story. don't give a damm about the kid. poor horse :( also still cry today when in dragonheart the Dragon gets killed :((((
Agree😭
I feel your pain heartbreaking scene
It was not just horse dying in my opinion. I remember when I saw the movie when I was kid. For me it was the desperation of Atreyu yelling and trying to save him. Still, gets me even today at 48 years old...
Please don't have kids!
Didn't that actor commit suicide?
(UPDATE: no, that was the second movie)
I’m a grown man, and the deaths of Mufasa and Littlefoot’s mom get me every time.
The animated Transformers movie, when Optimus Prime died. That was heartbreaking to kids in the 80s. I saw that on the big screen, it was too much.
Toon deaths are brutal.
The deaths in these movies were tear jerkers for me: A Walk to Remember, My Girl, Million Dollar Baby, Boyz in the Hood, Glory, The Champ, The Fault With Our Stars. Of course the ones you listed in your video caused my eyes to water as well.
My girl gets me every time
Oh man, the Land Before Time clip had me a little teary. Little Foot's mom dying is all the feels
I have never EVER recovered from Hodor, his death was so tragic I couldn't watch all of it in one sitting, I sobbed so hard and I was so depressed after. He didn't deserve what he got, but Peter also had me crying, so did Mufasa. You just HAD to put them all together didn't you! Now I'm CrYiNg TwT!
I still cry over neverending story
Long live the king
Me too and I am a 44 year old 250 pound bodybuilder!! Brother makes total fun of me. GREAT movie
@@BJETNT I'm 30 it's one of my favorite films as a kid it's a classic film
What about the film "My Girl" and the death of Thomas J. Sennett (Macaulay Culkin) ?
Oh my goddd, the 'Put his glasses on' bit broke me when I was little.
That's forever engraved on my mind 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
I think they didn't touch enough on that subject in the movie, was a perfect moment to do so for young people's benefit
Yes that was the worsted
Did he stay "dead"?
I’m not over the death of Han Solo. I was 13 in 1977. I had lost my dad that same year. As silly as it sounds now but Star Wars helped me through my grief. I watched it at the cinema 13 times. Which was no mean feat in those days. Those characters became my relief from my sadness. To see Han Solo die totally broke my heart. It was like losing an old friend. I’m actually heartbroken now writing this. I don’t think I ever will get over. 💔💔💔😢😢. Also I’m not insane. I know they aren’t real. 😂😂😂
I can understand what you're saying. Star Wars helped you to deal with incredible grief and because you've been a fan say day one, you feel that you know each of the characters personally, even though you know it's a work of fiction. They're the characters that helped you to deal with something that maybe didn't much sense and was unfathomable to you at such a young age. So naturally the death of an iconic character hit hard because maybe, even subconsciously, it reminded you of his unexpected death can be.
The Solo death had absolutely no impact on me at all. I felt that the studio did a horrible job of setting it up.
Sorry for your loss big man? I can relate to solos passing
Solo's death was lazy writing. A Tasha Yar death.
The saga had ended for me when they killed him off. Except for rogue 1 knowing that he wasn't in it. He for me as a child, he was the star of the saga. I also thought it was a bit dark for a family movie to show a son killing their father.
Tears automatically came to my eyes as they showed the green mile and I haven't seen that movie since I was a kid. The impact of that sadness never left me.
Rita from Dexter. That scene hit me hard 😞
Yes! That was so sad. She didn't deserve that at all! Truly tragic.
yeah that one was shocking and sad af
Yes! One of the biggest! But guess its not on-screen-death
Yea I forgot about her, I always blamed Dexter. My respect 4 him went down hill from there. Dont get me started on the death of his sister.
Tragic indeed. I just thought Julie Benz got conflicted with her acting gigs and had to drop dexter which kinda makes it feel better.
35. years later. I'm a grown man, and the Artax scene in Neverending Story still messes with me.
That one always gets to me aswell.
As it does me my friend
Same here. 34 and I sob everytime and I probably always will
It's even more poignant if you've ever suffered from clinical depression.
Glenn getting his head bashed in??
That’s for the next video of “ funniest deaths “ ha
dan168 this kids defs under 15
Neel Patel and you’re still ugly. lol
That should have made it on the list, even if we all knew it was coming
I don't think it's as impactful and iconic as these deaths.
The way the showed Snapes death was so heartbreaking. When he died it was shocking (i mean...not really because I read the book, but the bluntness of it was sad), but then the scenes that follow his death leave you feeling hollow.
Opie's "I got this" is a real tough moment. In SOA
Lebo leigh Leigh Jesus someone was hurt as a kid
Was it a biker uncle or oh oh oh Ik it was the stepfather
Lmao
Yeah, another good one
@Lebo leigh Leigh yeah, it's fiction like everything else on this list...
Optimus Prime's Death in 'Transformers: The Animated Movie' turned out to be so traumatizing to children that Hasbro was forced to bring him back.
Twice (once in Dark Awakening as zombie then killed and for good in The Return of Optimus Prime).
The dog on I'm legend
@Lebo leigh Leigh Wow. Trigger much? God damn take a reality break and stop watching RUclips channels about dead fake characters in fictional movies if it bothers you that much.
How about the dog on John Wick?
@Lebo leigh Leigh I am one of those "idiots" what the eff are you going to do about it? Absolutely nothing. Dogs have more of a right to this world than humans do
@Homelander yeah, no theres still the chance he'll bite the shit out of you
@@pigtrapper1329 BWWAAAAAAHHH HA HA HA HA who told you that stupid shit? BWAAAAHH HA HA idiot
Sweets death on Bones should be on here, that was heartbreaking.
I stopped watching the show after that. He was the best part of it.
I started tearing up again rewatching the Hodor scene
hahaha, rest assured he will live to the end in the book series
When Aslan was killed in the old cartoon from the 70th The Lion The Witch and The Wardrobe i cried so much i could barely breathe.
All these years I've been looking for that movie with the little dinosaur and the leaf. I don't even remember what happened in the movie, just that it made me very emotional as a child. Now I know it was the "Land Before Time". Thanks so much for this video.
If the Iron Giant ain't in here, this list doesn't qualify, when he says' SUPERMAN' it's tear jerking stuff
Yo, that one really got me!
3rd this comment.... That scene was bar none! The build up and forshadowing for it was all 10/10!!
He survived though
the true meaning of self sacrifice. That hurts the hardest.
These are all pretty good but where's Wash from Serenity/Firefly?!
Wwait, Wash, where's Wash?
He ain't comin'
Still too soon.
I can't believe firefly is no longer around
I am a leaf on the breeze
@@mattkelland3325 Wind! I am a leaf on the WIND.
Right
How could you not include Boromir’s death scene from Lord of the Rings?
Thorin as well
AND Fili and Kili
So we're not gonna talk about the little boy from My Girl or the little girl from Bridge to Terabithia?
Make your own video lol what's the problem lmpao
My girl. Omg hurt my heart. I agree over super heroes that come back.
"My name is Salmon like the fish, first name susie. I was 14 years old when I was murdered" How y'all not gonna include Susie salmon from The Lovely Bones, the disrespect.
Yes, but she dies right at the beginning, so we don't have as much time to get fond of her.
Yaass,one of my favorite movies!
soo sad
Me: (thinking this was about actors actually die on screen)
Also me: Oh
Sad but me too😬
I thought that as well..lol
Same here
Wtf you came to watch a snuff film?
Kmfsl God forgive me for laughing but me too 🤣😭
Armageddon for me, at the end with Ben and Bruce Willis.
TheChoznOne- ALL.THE.TIME
Man that Aerosmith song kill it..
'He doesn't know how to fail' - classic
every time I watch it
THIS!!!!!!!
“Black Panther was the cinematic event of 2018”
Infinity war: was it though
Was a great movie, wish they hadn't killed Killmonger off though
@Jay Rock Jinx Michael b Jordan couldn't act his way out of a paper bag. He's so cringe
: WTF is Black panther?
: An MCU comic hero.
: You mean the bottom row of comics no one ever bought?
Artax... :'( :'( :'( I remember asking my mom if the real horse that played Artax was okay, and how I was worried the horse couldn't breathe in that mud.
Han Solo, Barb, Hodor and Mufasa ABSOLUTELY😭😭😭 think the entire Red Wedding scene should've been included though. I'm still bitter as hell over that.
@Lebo leigh Leigh It was a harmless comment. Nothing wrong with being bitter over the deaths of characters you love. It's natural to be drawn to certain characters.
The death of Two Socks in Dances With Wolves. It breaks me every single time.
If the Indians had showed up five minutes earlier, the movie would've been called "Wipes With Leaves."
Black Widow being overstepped for a fake out death... Come on now. She's a lynch pin since Ironman and you do her permadeath like that. Shame.
I literally cried when Chuck lost Wilson. :(
Logan is literally one of my top 5 Marvel films of All time.
Yeah I have to completely agree with you on that one. It was if X-Men existed in real life rather than the comic book version of the first three. Just hearing Wolverine flip out and killing everybody was worth the price of admission when he was getting robbed by those thugs trying to take his cars parts. Next best thing was a little girl walking out with a head in her hand. But Charles and Logan dying yeah it was pretty Epic. I had a hard time watching it
One of my friends think it’s trash and then says the Flash TV show is good. That frustrates me because the movie is sooooooo good.
that was the worst movie ever i guess the mummy with tom cruise was bad too.
What about BACKDRAFT
Stephen: Who’s your brother, Brian?
Brian: You are, Stephen.
"If you go, we go."
Glad you included Littlefoot's mum. Everyone remembers Mufasa but don't know/don't remember this one death. It broke my heart 😭
Detective Joss Carter's death on "Person of Interest" was shocking and sad.
Truth!!!
I was more devastated by Loki's death. Bc i knew they would undo the snap.
Though he does come back in his own series on Disney+ due to time travel lol
Ben Sullivan from Scrubs for sure, everything about that, the futility and inevitability of death and how we all cope with it knowing it is coming and after they have passed. It was hard not to empathize with Cox.
I was devastated when I saw Logan die. Can't forget that scene ever.
Yo, it was like seeing time end, I was like so this it?
I still haven't watched it. I just can't.
It is a pity that this did not include Anime.
“Grave of the Fireflies” has what is probably the most excruciating death-scenes of the main characters.
God yes, I could only watch that movie the once, I had to give away the DVD, I knew I could never watch it again. I think it's meant to have a hopeful ending, but I didn't see it that way
Melayahm01
Well, no...
As Takahata Isao and Nosaka Akiyuki both made clear (the writer/director of the film, and the author of the short-story), it isn’t meant to be “hopeful” at all.
It is meant to rip your heart out, dance all over it, and then ram the remains back down the corpse of your throat (that is a rough paraphrase of Nosaka’s commentary on his intent for writing the short-story).
The Film is meant to make the audience feel as closely as possible the horrors of War without ever once actually showing a part of that war; how war destroys the civilian population just as thoroughly as it destroys the men and boys fighting it.
And Takahata added to this that at least the soldiers we send-off to fight a war have some sort of “Agency” in their own deaths; they are able to “directly fight back against an enemy who is trying to kill them.”
The Japanese attitude toward life has made clear the salience of “meaning” in people’s lives, much more clearly than has Western Civilization... And in this respect the film communicates something that the Japanese find even more horrifying than do Western Audiences: a Film where none of the events gives any meaning to he People/characters within it, nor to the overall story.
Humanity as a whole deals.... badly... with things that lack “Meaning.” All of Organized Religion exists to give meaning to the existence of the horrors of life that are visited upon so much of Humanity.
Nosaka’s original story is meant to convey that there are some forms of suffering that exist without meaning that we actually have the ability to control ourselves: War. And as such we need to strive to avoid it at all costs.
There is more to the existence of “Grave of the Fireflies” than this, but that is basically the central point: It is meant to injure the audience; to cause them emotional pain that is (to the author, hopefully) impossible to bear. It is made to make the audience fear taking actions that could lead to this kind of event, as Nosaka and Takahata also point out that Seito and Satsuko are only two of the thousands upon thousands of other children who die during (or because of... As both Deaths occur after the war has ended) a War.
If we wanna go Holocaust why not boy I’m the striped pajamas. So many hard movies to watch. I hate these lists because it’s always marvel drama. But I’m not talented enough to start my own.
There are so many great, heartbreaking film and tv death scenes, they really should do a separate list for each. BTW, if you haven't watched The Green Mile, and you need a good cry, John's death scene is one of the saddest on-screen deaths I've ever seen. Even watching that scene during this video got me choked up! Such a good film and so many great performances.
How can u forget Dumbledore and Sirius black tf we ain’t ever recovering from those deaths
I wasn't that broken up over Sirius...more over Harry's anguish. Dumbledore, Hedwig, Dobby, Fred, and Lupin destroyed me though.
Snape’s death hit me harder than Dumbledore... Sirius’ was more shocking.
Spock? I remember I was so angry and in shock. As I went to the first showing and it had been kept secret.
i wasn’t ready for this. the land before time n wilson scenes got me bro. send halp
RIP Chadwik Boseman
They really got me with the last one
Okay tell me Opie's death and funeral, SOA, didn't break your heart? I cried so hard watching that.
What about Half-Sack?
If you don't include Ol Yeller, this list cannot count.
truth! Old Yeler ultimate sad angry death of a character in a movie.
The Amazon Spider-Man 2, Gwen. Still po'd over that one.
Oh yeah, I cry at that scene every time. Andrew and Emma have amazing chemistry. I guess that's why they're dating. Or are they not together anymore?
The original death in the comic books was at the hands of the Green Goblin off the top of the Brooklyn Bridge. She died the same way, from a broken neck. I knew it was coming, but it was still harsh.
Oh, yep. That one definitely needs to be on this list, at the top of the list.
UndgnfiedWrshpr they had zero chemistry
Dave in Mystic River. Will never get over of his death.
ER had Lucy knight. That episode even won an award based on her death.
I see you've overlooked Old Dan and Little Ann in "Where the Red Fern Grows," as well as Thomas in "My Girl." I'd say Shelby in "Steel Magnolias" but it's not so much her death that has the emotional weight (and it has a lot), but her momma's raging at God after the funeral. I'm crying thinking about it right now. :/
Brian's song is the only true story i see. Truly the most beautiful movie ever.
Steel magnolias. Omg City of angels. My girl. These are scenes people need to remember.
People needed counseling for Dumbledore’s movie death, even when they already had it after his book death.
Jon Voight`s death scene in "The Champ" is still the one that left me emotionally scarred even after 41 years, none of these other on screen deaths even come close
Hey, thanks for mentioning that.
“Wake up, Champ!”
In Breaking Bad, how about the kid on the bike who came across them highjacking fuel from a stopped train? That was cold. They chopped the bike and the kid up!
Yeah, that pissed me off, but it lent so much to the story. They were some cold blooded sons of bitches on that show.
Good point that was sad or Andreas death was sad. But Jane? Come on that was not sad her death was a necessity. Jane was a con, trouble and a junkie she needed to be whacked out.
🍺 when Wilson floated away I lost it
What if someone hits a home run out of the park? You get misty at those times?
For me, it’s Joyce Summers from Buffy the Vampire Slayer and Spock from Star Trek II.
Oh yes, that was shocking. Looked like she was getting better then bam, gone, and SMG's performance was heartbreaking
Melayahm01 If there was any example of BtVS not getting the recognition it deserved, this is it. It was brilliant and I agree Geller’s performance was outstanding. They should have received an award.
That episode forced me to feel the discomfort of experiencing death. When my grandfather died, I couldn’t cry or scream because it wasn’t enough; I was just in shock. That pain was too great to be expressed in a moment, it drags out over a lifetime. That episode captures that confused and devastated feeling so well.
For me, Tara's death was even worse. It was unpredictable and ah, so unnecessary.
Some of my picks would be:-
Tony Stark
Natasha Romanoff
Loki
Yondu Udonta
Seita and Setsuko
The Dog in I Am Legend
T-800 in T2
Darth Vader
Spock
I would add Ellen Ripley too but her death was more shocking than emotional.
Sam was the dog in I am legend
I too had listed Seita and Satstuko as the most horrifying deaths in Anime/Film.
It is hard to watch that movie a second time.
Of course... My Neighbor Totoro is also hard to watch if you know what is really happening....
Two that stand out for me both involve Hospital's
1. Scrubs - Doctor Cox loosing four patients in one go and his reaction, it might bend the rules but seeing his breakdown is just heart wrenching
2. ER - Carter reading Greens letter, it sounds all happy and joyful til right at the end with Corday finishes and you can tell Noah Wylie genuinely struggles on set
Don't know how you missed Bob from Stranger Things
Yes! Hubby and I rewatched it the other day and I cry every single time.
You missed Jon Voight The Champ 1979. Hands down the most heart breaking on screen death. 2nd E.T 1982
What make's Solo's death so sad is it's a metaphor for the whole star wars franchise, because the new trilogy definitely killed any desire for more movies.
I actually love them. Have all the charm or the original 3. I was not a fan of the middle 3. But you know what directors are damned if they do and damned if they don't. You can't please everyone.
Darth Kennedy destroyed a whole universe
On West Wing, the death of Mrs. Landingham, though not seen, was devastating to the characters and many fans.
Hold up they didn't add Opie from son's of anarchy or Glenn from the walking dead what the bloody smh
Rita`s death in Dexter shook me so much that I couldn't watch anymore. For me it was soul crushing.
Rue’s death in The Hunger Games should be on this list 😤😪
Joyce Summers death in Buffy hit me particularly hard
You know what made that entire episode even more visceral?
The fact that there wasn’t a single bit a music in the entire episode. Just fallout and sadness in all it’s tragic perfection. Even Spike paid his respect as Joyce was the only one amongst them that never treated him like a monster but a person.
This episode resonated with me beyond words because the night it aired was the same night my dad lost his battle to cancer.
It will ALWAYS have a special place in my heart.
I tip my hat to the acting chops of the Scooby gang.
Debra morgan 😪 from dexter. It took me 3 days to recover.
The death of jack in titanic always make me cry till date
Especially since there was plenty of room on there and Rose was just selfish!
Titanic was a mass murder. Staged by the evil scum who planted that foreign commie bank on our shores known as the Federal Reserve. It was actually the Olympic. The Titanic suffered damage that made it uninsurable.
There was a third sister ship called the Brittanic.
It was sank to kill 3 men, mass criminals, who objected to their fellow criminals (bankers, etc) plans to slam the Fed Reserve on US shores.
John Jacob Astor ( Vanderbilt clan, CNN Anderson Cooper),
Isador Strauss (Macy's), Benjamin Guggenheim. Lured onto the ship by a fellow criminal.
All involved in that movie had to know this and misled the world with what they did.
There was plenty of room on the lifeboats because the bad guys pushed that phony "women and children first" and many of the crew went along with this False Flag event.
The sinking of the Titanic/Olympic has impacted the lives of everyone since.
The ship went down April 1912, the Fed Reserve came up in Dec 1912. The 100 year plan to collapse the USA in 2012 did fail though. Stopped by brave men and women. But that's why they ran all those "end of the world" movies like 2012 and news articles... To program us to accept it.
Price of gold was $30.00 an ounce in 1912. $130 in 2012. They looked at making a 5000-10,000% profit while destroying our lives in the process.
There was even a book written in 1898 called "The sinking of the Titan".
where is vaders death and starks death
Agent Coulson?
Stark made me cry so hard
Sam from i am legend.being an animal lover and have raised dogs most of my life I cryed not going to lie
Never will I ever watch that movie again!
Also Marley from Marley and Me
Disagree with Peter's death in Avengers. Yes it was sad, but the impact of his death was lessened by the fact that we knew he was coming back. It's not the same watching a character die for good than knowing they'll be back by the next film.
Exactly. Sony had announced a Spider-Man film, before Infinity War came out, so we knew he was coming back.
@@Termite30 Even if they hadn't most of us knew how the storyline was going to end and even those who didn't could probably guess he'd come back somehow. Marvel's not exactly good at creating emotional impact.
That's why visions death is the saddest.
@@adamabbas1487 except he returns in Wandavision lol.
@@mcostagirl123 that wasn't announced at the time. The vision that died may not be the same vision that died.
The death of the main character in Gladiator didn’t affect me as much as the idea of his wife and child dying. Still was a tear jerker.
The death of mufasa was heartbreaking😭😭
"Root" on Person of Interest was kind of hard...she'd always been so badass.
Pigtracker, I'm with you! Animals are blessed, humans are not. Humans need to dial back their egos and become real stewards of the animal world.
Loved Root. And John. The ending of Person of Interest wrecked me.
These are some good ones. Im going to add Set it off, Titanic, and Axel (Netflix). When the robot dog died I cried.
