// There have only been two movies that have made me bawl out crying//

The Lion King, Fluke, and now Artificial Intelligence.

Apparently this thing was released 10 years ago (which from the vehicle design and CG makes it totally believable since it doesn’t seem like that long ago) but I was at the gym and they were playing it on one of the TVs. 30 minutes of cardio just flew right by because I was totally engrossed in the movie despite feeling like I was going to pass out from the low food to high caffeine ratio. Though despite hanging on every word and the adorableness that was Haley Joel Osment’s then face, I couldn’t stay on that elliptical forever. Figure I’d netflix it later.

But netflix didn’t have it.

10 minutes later it finished downloading from some random source and I was in the living room with the lights down low at 2 in the morning not quite realizing what I was getting myself into. I had to stop the movie to get a box of tissues so that I could breathe again because all the crying had left me struggling for air. Two thirds of the way in I was surrounded by crumpled up tissues almost reminiscent of the Fluke screening where in the tissues piled off the couch and onto the floor and under the coffee table (I ran out of tissues that night). 

When the movie had stopped I had to get up and move the clothes into the dryer and I actually had to stop and take a moment to sob over the washer. I recalled the credits and thought to myself, one day I will make a movie that reduces someone to this ridiculous amount of crying.

Everyone was talking about how Toy Story 3 made them cry. Watching that movie I felt more angry and frustrated than sad and depressed (He should have kept them, that girl didn’t deserve them). It almost made me feel like I was missing out and that maybe I was just too emotionally jadded to be affected by movies now a days. It’s nice to know that I can still be moved by something.
