This is the sad thread

This weird/artsy music video always gets me teary.
Reminds me of how my older brother took care of me, and how I now take care of my younger brother. It's rather sad. Reminds me a lot of childhood imagination.

What is the olive garden?



My best friend's cousin hung himself on Christmas eve. He been screwed with his entire life. He was dyslexic, so school was terrible for him, and so he dropped out to become an apprentice electrician. He got in with a bad crowd, and became alcoholic at 17. He was 19.

I tell my friends everything. So last night, at a party, we all went for a walk - Me, male friend and female friend. And he just suddenly lost it. It was scary. I've never seen him like that. Because, really, he doesn't tell people about himself. So he just suddenly lost it about his cousin - they'd been much closer than I had known. And we decided to leave him alone, and my female friend was crying, and I just didn't know what to do.

But, to be honest, I was just annoyed at his cousin. How selfish that was, to his family and friends, and how it's ruining my male friend's life right now.

So yeah.

lol, the olive garden is a fairly cheaply priced italian restaraunt in America, and the moto in the commercials is "when ya here, ya family!"

ah, I understand :( However, there could be a lot more to as why the cousin decided to commit suicide. But it is indeed scary when people you are close to just lose it, it's very unnexpected. But empathize with your friend as much as you can of course.
 
Damn it, I don't have any sad pictures or vids.

Well, I could post the entirity of Saving Private Ryan, or Matoko's route of Kanon, She the Final Weapon, or the end of Elfen Lied, but a bit too big, methinks.





Anyway, :(

I never heard of that film. I'm going to have to watch it.
 
I feel so sad right now.. I need some cheering up :(

I've read the entire thing, and it's a bit sadistic, don't you think?

It's very over-the-top. The comic ramped up all these sad events to keep you feeling worse about reading it. Oddly enough the end is the saddest part, because you're reading all these terrible things that happen to this little girl, and in the end something nice happens...but she's already dead. Her death brought about the garden. It's the same as the Leah comic I posted. They're variations on the "Matchstick Girl" tale; a little girl dies in an alley, but there's a 'happy' end.
 
If you've seen I Am Legend:
I was actually tearing up when Will Smith had to strangle Sam. :(

Yeah, I suppose. I liked the part where she gets taken in, that part was a break in the bad things, but of course that doesn't last for very long.

Ah, ****, the original Elfen Lied was frigging sad, but not as sad as uh.... Saikano (She the Final Weapon), I think it was called.




but anyway, it's still (sadistically) funny. The artist, however, is one heck of a bastard.
 
Eternal Sunshine of The Spotless Mind. This movie makes me cry like a babyyy.
Everytime I've ended a long serious symbiotic relationship with someone, this movie comes to mind, and it always seems to relate well. And when I watch it, I just cry my friggin eyes out.
So many lines from that movie that just make me feel like crap.

Clementine: This is it, Joel. It's going to be gone soon.
Joel: I know.
Clementine: What do we do?
Joel: Enjoy it.

Joel: I wish I had stayed to. NOW I wish I had stayed. I wish I had done a lot of things. I wish I had... I wish I had stayed. I do.
Clementine: Well I came back downstairs and you were gone!
Joel: I walked out. I walked out the door.
Clementine: Why?
Joel: I don't know. I felt like a scared little kid. I was like... it was - it was above my head. I don't know.
Clementine: You were scared?
Joel: Yeah. I thought you knew that about me. I ran back to the bonfire trying to outrun my humiliation, I think.
Clementine: Was it something I said?
Joel: Yeah. You said "So go"... with such disdain, ya' know?
Clementine: Oh, I'm sorry.
Clementine: Joely? What if you stayed this time?
Joel: I walked out the door. There's no memory left.
Click to expand...
that last line by Joel always gets my gut when I am watching the movie :(

Clementine: When I was a kid, I thought I was. I can't believe I'm crying already. Sometimes I think people don't understand how lonely it is to be a kid, like you don't matter. So, I'm eight, and I have these toys, these dolls. My favorite is this ugly girl doll who I call Clementine, and I keep yelling at her, "You can't be ugly! Be pretty!" It's weird, like if I can transform her, I would magically change, too.
Joel: [kisses Clementine] You're pretty.
Clementine: Joely, don't ever leave me.
Joel: You're pretty... you're pretty... pretty...

Oh wow, that movie makes me such a little sissy pie, I now feel like crapola again. *crys in corner*
 
Hardy har, zombie, funny. You have to admit that was a powerful scene and Smith did a good job at it.

imo it's just as bad as Jim Carrey trying to act in a serious role. :|

wait, you contradicted yourself, first you said he did a good job, and then you said it was "just as bad as Jim Carrey trying to do a serious role"

And anyways, have you seen Eternal Sunshine? Jim Carrey can be a great actor when he truely puts his mind to it, and his character in that role was 100% believable
 
Maybe he meant that Jim Carrey is a good actor?

Don't mince words, dumbass, you know what I meant.

Spotless Mind was just as bad as Number 23.

I tear up just knowing how this video ends. The music combined with the imagery make it the saddest music video in my opinion.

Damnit. I recommended this to a friend, now I'm obliged to watch it with them. I can only hope like hell they cry as much as I will... and this'll be my fourth time through.

apples and oranges.

It was so "bad" yet some how won an oscar and 36 other film awards?


I am sorry, I really can't take anything you say about a good artistic film seriously, as you just mentioned something "good" about I am legend. -_-

Awards don't mean a thing. Spotless mind was inconsistent, and sometimes it deliberately went "look at me, I'm a smart people film!" with it's convoluted dialogue.
 
What are you saying ZT, I am Legend was a great movie!

Forget it, it's all good. :smoking:

O_O Wha? Did you just? Are you defending I am Legend with that type of comparison? You wanna talk about convoluted dialogue!
:frown::frown::frown::frown:

"this is not the bash i am legend thread,this is not the bash i am legend thread, this is not the bash i am legend thread"

You seem like the kind of person who loves pretentious art films and hates films which aren't up their own asses.

But you like modest mouse, so i'm not sure what to make of you.
 
Eternal Sunshine was good. The style could be off-putting for some. Vikram, quote me some 'convoluted' dialogue from it, plzkthx.

Haven't seen I Am Legend, but knowing they changed the ending makes me cry.

In short, /agree with ZT.

Sad stuff: Amber Spyglass ending. I Am Sam.
