Animated Movies (Is anyone else like this?)

[luckyse7enz]

I can watch ANY movie or hear about ANYTHING in person and not shed a tear or be moved emotionally. I was having a conversation with a friend of mine about it, saying I'd probably be more relieved if I could find the capacity to cry about stuff. I know a lot of guys are like this anyway, but it's been years and I was starting to become a little concerned.

I saw "12 Years a Slave" a while back and my boy said that he couldn't contain himself at the end..."Cried like a baby, breh."

....and that was understandable to me. I watched it and thought, "This is sad as fukk and I know this," but that's as far as I could go with it. Same with "Fruitvale Station." I was just like, "Damn...that's REALLY sad."

No tears though. I think the only live-action movie that's gotten me there was "The Green Mile" when I was a kid.

However, the only movies that have moved me CLOSE to wanting to shed a tear as an adult:

This is almost the same scene, but when I was younger, it almost got me.

I can watch these over and still have to reel it in a little.

Is it that Pixar and animated movies do a better job at making you feel for the characters or is it just harder to sympathize with people b/c I've been desensitized? Is anybody else here like that or does anyone know people with similar traits?

My bad if it IS misleading, but I'm essentially asking if anyone more prone to feel emotion from animated movies (cartoons & such) than they are from live-action "realistic" movies. I never feel sad about ANYTHING until I see some shyt go down in an animated flick.

That Toy Story shyt had me. I just lost my mom a November 09 and Toy Story always was our movie series from the time i was 9 and the first one dropped. Once I saw that scene it all hit me and I was crying like a baby in the theater. Luckily my girl understood and she didn't give me the or and she helped me out
