This 21-year-old, emotionally-mature troper has two words for you. "THE CLAAAAAAAAAAAAWWW." Seriously. I was completely fine throughout the entire movie. Fine during the buildup to the climax and the horrific realization of the incinerator scene and seemingly inevitable tragedy. Just digging my nails into the movie theatre seat REALLY HARD, but tearless, as the toys all just silently hold each other in the face of death. But that... simple, BEAUTIFUL IronicEcho, as the Claw descends in a QUITE LITERAL "DeusExMachina" hand of {{God}}... Tears of relief and utter joy and affection for these characters - and everything bottled up from the whole movie plus around 10 years of "big-girls-don't-cry" repression since. Thank you, {{Pixar}}. You probably just saved me around 3 years of therapy.

22 year old here.

I'm 30, and I love the Toy Story movies, as do my parents. The three of us got together to see the film, and we were, all of us, ''weeping''. If you can't cry at all during this film, then you're made out of STONE!

EW did a goddamn article about how everyone cried at Toy Story 3

21 and I bawled like I was a little girl again.

20 years old. This Troper has grown up with the movies and when she saw this...My God, she was sobbing throughout nearly the entire film. This was in part because of the fact that my little sister had two months before leaving for college when this film came out.

25 years old and ThisTroper had just graduated from college a few weeks before she saw it. It's marked the only time she's ever cried in a movie theater.

31 and male. Tears at the beginning and end with plenty to spare between that, which never really happened before (only really happened before at the end of about 3 different movies in this lifetime). Dammit Pixar, tear ducts are like nipples, men have them but aren't meant to use them - I hope you're buried in awards for this, you've earned them.

This 14 year old troper cried, but his 40-something year old dad cried harder.

This 21 year old male troper, with my 19 and 22 year old best friends (again, male) went to the midnight premiere and were all balling our eyes out. None of said anything to each other for a good 10 minutes after the end and we just kind of sat there as the rest of the theatre emptied. After we finally left we just kind of hung around outside for almost an hour trying to come to grips with the whole thing. None of use wanted be the one to say "ok, I think it's time to go"

This 18 year old troper made the mistake of watching it about a month and a half into college, after having packed only one toy to bring along and leaving the rest at home. "Great, now I have guilt!"

I took my younger siblings to the movie theater as a farewell, and at the next hour was still crying over a plushie (last gift grandpa) over the road going to the college for first time (longest trip of my life)

17 year old female here. The beginning got me, and at the end when Andy's mom broke down, I was a wreck from there to the end. Doesn't help I'm graduating next June.

This troper went to a 3D showing in a local theater. I'm 18, headed to college, and I bawled like crazy throughout the whole damn movie.

This troper, a 19 year old male, and his 16 year old sister were inches away from crying. Their 45 year old mother cried.

This Troper and her friend since 8th grade, who are both now 18, went to the local drive-in to see the movie. With us, I brought my old Woody and Buzz dolls. I cradled Woody the entire movie, claiming "I have a feeling at the end of this, Woody's going to need a hug." It turns out I needed the hug, as I absolutely sobbed during the last 15 minutes or so, getting Woody's shirt wet. And for old time's sake, I squeezed his chest and his little voice box told me "You're my favorite deputy!" I was inconsolable for several minutes after the movie ended. To top it all off, we saw this about a week before I had to leave for college.

WORD. 22-year-old female who literally moved out on her own that ''week'', sobbing hysterically whilst seeing the movie alone and probably scaring the kids in the row ahead of her. Classy.

This troper is 18 and just gave away a majority of her old toys (including a beloved one named Jessie... she was from Team Rocket but still). I cried throughout the entire movie while her nine year old cousin and the small children around her gave her weird looks.

This 14 year old troper, as well as her 50 year old mother, both completely bawled.

15, but I have to believe that this was the only movie that caused me to cry so hard in a long time. I brought my whole family to the IMAX to see it; my grandparents my sister my parents and my cousin BAWLED and we all cryed together. My grandmother recently had knee surgery and she cannot sit up in a chair because it is not good for her, but as the toys headed to the incinerator, my nanna sits up for the first time in 2 and a half months. I was crying twice the tears in the last 15 minutes and all the way home gathering all the characters and crying myself to sleep.

ThisTroper was 18 when he saw the movie in theaters with his family. For me, this was during the summer after I graduated from high school and was preparing to go to college. The scene at the end where Andy gives his toys to Bonnie made me cry like a baby.

18 years old and male. No work of fiction, including Toy Story 3, has ever made me cry by being sad. But the very end of the film was so emotionally powerful and heartwarming... I just teared up. Even though, due to technical problems in the theater, I couldn't actually hear any of the dialogue. It was that good.

22 and male. Spent ten minutes trying desperately to hold the tears back for the sake of my 6-year-old cousin beside me, just about managing to hold it together until I heard sniffles coming from my usually stoic grandfather. *sniff*

This Troper, 18, male, was going to university after the summer it came out. Going with my brother, his girlfriend, and our parents, I somehow managed to retain my composure ''throughout the entire movie''. Even my dad ''weeped'', and he ''never'' cries. ''Ever''. During the of the torch with Andy and Bonnie, I nearly lost it multiple times. Especially the part where says Woody wouldn't let her down. Then they had to go and Bonnie ''make Woody wave goodbye''. I had to bite my cheeks to keep myself from bawling as drove away, and just as consoled Woody I nearly lost it again--the resisting was making it ''worse''. I thought I had made it, and then final shot of the clouds''... I have no idea how I managed not to collapse into tears. Afterwards I felt ''worse'' because I didn't cry--because this was a time where it was totally justified.

This 18 year-old troper cried at several points during the movie, especially Andy "introducing" all his toys to Bonnie. Then she was touched again when she realized that most of little kids who went and watched the first movie in the theater (herself included) would be about college age when this movie came out.

This 17 year old Troper completely ''adored'' Toy Story when it first came out. While he held it together through most of the third movie, the ending made him break down.

This Troper's entire goddamn family, including his Grandma and Aunt and Uncle ''and cousins'' went to see it in theaters. I'm 18, my brother is 16, my dad is 38 and my mom is 39. My Grandma recently hit 60, and my aunt, uncle, and cousins are around the same ages as my own family. Not a single one of us left that theater without, at one point during the movie, having tears in our eyes.

20 year-old who, of course, grew up with the previous two started getting choked up when the hand-holding commenced, started leaking when Woody said goodbye to the others and started straight out bawling when Andy and his mother stood there taking in his empty room. That shot was just perfect and yanked every heartstring possible for someone having moved across the country for college some year and a half year before. From then on out there were tears non-stop, climaxing with the piggyback ride and oh god now I'm crying again. (My date, however, was not impressed)

This (at the time it first came out) 16 year old Troper has only cried over two movies/shows in the past eight or nine years. The other was at the end of Torchwood: Children of Earth. She's generally the one doing the consoling for the others who do end up crying over movies. There were definitely no dry eyes that night. Upon seeing it for the second time for her 17th birthday she ended up crying even more than the first time.

This Troper, a 27-year-old male, got at least a little misty throughout most of the film, and then openly wept at the ending. ''Wept.'' He'll at least choke up slightly at damn near anything, but this is only the third film ever in his entire life to outright open the floodgates to that extent (after ''{{Dragonheart}}'', for which he was a lot younger, and ''BigFish'', which should require no excuse or explanation.)

Oh God. I was seven years old when the first film came to theatres (which makes me a 22-year-old, female). And now... I just can't say anything. Believe me, I'm not a sentimentalist and I hate when a story gets overly emotional. But this film rendered me speechless. At some scenes I was crying like a child. And now I'm REALLY glad that I've never, ever thrown away any of my old toys. I hope that even now they are played with. *sniff*

18-year-old male here. The original was the first movie I ever saw in theaters (at age 3). I saw ''3'' opening night. I cried nonstop during the last 20 minutes. It choked me up seeing my favorite characters from my childhood face death but in the end get the most satisfying conclusion I could ever hope for just made me lose all control. I've seen it three times and I cried like a baby each time. Hell, I'm tearing up just typing this. Thank you Pixar, for all the memories!

16 year old male. Toy Story 2 is literally the first film I EVER REMEMBER SEEING. Seeing this movie it broke me. I mean it's the end of the series I grew up on. Just... Just... WAAAAAAAAAA! I'm not crying... I got SandInMyEyes.

GigaNerd17's play-by-play of his tearjerker moment: 1) describes his toys' "personalities" = eyes got wet. 2) has to decide whether to give up Woody or not = tears start streaming. 3) takes a painfully long time describing his days with Woody = sobbing. 4) Andy starts playing with Bonnie = prolonged sobbing; Dad realizes I'm crying & starts crying too. 5) Movie ends = tears don't stop until 10 minutes later. 6) Edits the "TearJerker" page for Toy Story = eyes get wet again. 7) Reminisces about childhood = tears flow once more.

Being 13, and not knowing a thing about parenting, I can say that everyone wants a kid that grows up to have a personality like Andy. It makes you rethink everything.

This troper was four years old when she saw the first film in theatres. She is 19 now, just out of her first year in college. She has never felt so emotional about a movie before Toy Story 3. When the Toys almost die in the incinerator, she was this close to screaming out loud in the theatre and cried like a baby at the ending. She still feels teary eyed every time she sees it.

This fifteen-year-old troper doesn't cry much anymore, never at a movie. I bawwed at the ending.

This 16-year-old troper along with her cynical friends and her mother, cried like babies, or soft hearted people, or...cryingish people who cry at movies. It's nothing, I just pet the cat.

This fifteen-year-old troper along with her forty-six-year-old father. It does not help that ToyStory was always "our" movie while I was growing up. (Seriously, we watched it twice a day and went through like three tapes before the DVD came out.)

This 21 year old troper, having prepared himself mentally as hearing that this movie WILL MAKE YOU CRY, had brought many tissues with him as he watched the movie. All of them were used. THE LOOKS ON THEIR FACES! I'm tearing up just ''remembering'' that part!

This 26 year old troper who is currently battling cancer had already been made aware of the end-of-life symbolism in the film and had a complete emotional breakdown in the damned theater.

This 22 year old troper saw this with his 22 year old wife. Tears were shed by both of us. From remembering when we saw the first 2 movies to growing up and moving out on our own, this movie meant alot to us.

This teenage troper didn't even make it 10 minutes in to the movie. *Sheds manly tears for Bo and Wheezy*

This 17 year old female troper actually held it together until the last scene... but then the tears poured down. My mother cried, my best friend cried, my best friend's mother and sister and (though he wouldn't admit it) dad cried too when we all saw it together. When I saw it two other times I cried then too. Heck, when I saw it with my dad he teared up too. My aunt didn't cry though. She must have tear ducts of steel.

This troper never even cared that much about Toy Story up until I watched Toy Story 3. And still somewhat cried.

The list of tropers of all ages who cried during this scene is of itself a CrowningMomentOfHeartwarming.

This troper, a 19 year old female when the movie came out, went to go see it with her best guy friend, who was 18. I had just finished my first year of college and he was going to start in the fall. At the end when is playing with his toys one last time before giving them away, both of us were in tears, because we were in a similar time in our lives.

Here's another one that broke up during the final scene. Just. As someone who's honestly deathly afraid of growing up (even though I'm nearly 21 and I've been in college for two and a half years...)

17 years old here. Started tearing up in the Incinerator scene]], ended up having a near breakdown at the ending...

23m, on a double date with a 21f, my best friend 24m and his girlfriend 20f. Cried the rest of the movie, and for the next FIVE HOURS it was virtually impossible to hold any kind of conversation whatsoever.

Teenager. Saw it with my aunt. I have issues with emotion, and rarely cry during movies. Tears fell down at the incinerator scene.

16-year old, nearly cried at the incinerator scene. Oddly enough, the Men returning at the credits got me, because that bit hadn't been ruined for me yet.

This teenage tropette saw it at a sleep-over, but was unable to cry loudly as her friend fell asleep. Even though it made her laugh, it was really sad and the incinerator scene was horrible to watch. But still she loved it and the next day she spent a lot of time quoting it, and at random moments yelled stuff like 'Y mi nave!?!?'.

3 happened to start on the day that school let out for this 18-year-old (then 17) troper, which made it easy to get out early and catch the soonest showing... but I was the only one in my age group. Everyone else was an elementary-school kid or a parent. I was, quite literally, the only one to laugh at the playtime sequence (including "Death by monkey", which would have been hilarious outside of context, too) crack up through near-sobbing at "The Claw" and was the only person who stayed through the credits, trying to collect herself after the ending. (I love Bonnie, but was it ''really'' necessary to make Woody wave like that? *sniffle*) It's disheartening to think that there's a generation who didn't enjoy the movie to its full extent.

25 year old woman here. I went in knowing all the spoilers for the film. Didn't stop me from bawling my eyes out and being convinced that they were really going to drop them into the incinerator

I was 16. Teared up with my aunt at the incinerator scene. Nearly jumped up cheering at "THE CLAAAAAAAAAAW." Wish I had.

17 and female. 1 and 2 were always movies I'd loved. 3 made me absolutely bawl even though I'd had the scene spoiled for me. I barely even saw the last scene as more than blurs on the screen I was crying so hard. Damn you, Pixar employees, for being so amazing.

I was 18 when Toy Story 3 came out. The weekend it came out was the weekend the weekend I graduated high school. I saw it opening night and was doing fine all the way till the incinerator scene, after that all bets were off, it was all tears from there on. I rarely cry during movies to add insult to injury, the only other movie in a theater that really got me was ''Up''. Thankfully, it doesn't look like ''Cars 2'' is going to be a tear fest.

this troper was 17, just about to start thinking about senior year and all that comes afterward. when I got home, I ran to find my stuffed animals- all I've got left, having given away my other toys- and just sat and cried and cried and cried.. not that I wasn't sobbing through the whole thing.

24 years old when I saw it, heard all the stories about how everyone cries at ToyStory3, and thus spent most of the movie with a bit of a HypeBacklash approach, looking at various parts with "This is probably the scene they're talking about." And I was ''still'' completely blindsided by it when it actually happened.

21 years old, saw it with no idea what the reputation was a couple of weeks after seeing both 1&2 for the very first time (I never really saw films as a kid), and was a complete mess by the end. Every time I've watched it since then it still gets me, and my bear that comes to uni gets a big cuddle.

This troper is usually MadeOfIorn. however, when the incinerator scene popped up, I was TRAMITIZED! '''''A 13 YEAR OLD MAN TRAMITIZED BY A G-RATED MOVIE!''''' So once I saw the movie, I saught out to NEVER WATCH IT AGAIN! (Therapy, here I come.) It dosn't help that my sister who's 14 LOVES THE MOVIE! However, thanks to my love on the CPU, when the scene pops up, I put on loud music to 1/4. GODDAMN PIXAR!

I'm 24, and I did felt a bit tingly in the eyes, but didn't completely break down. I don't know why, but I can't seem to cry easily, though that didn't stop me from spending the remainder of the evening fondly thinking about all my toys.

16, and i was bawling like a child during the entire ending. As were all of the bunkmates from my camp, when we went to see it.

20, and my '''boyfriend''' who was 19. I cry at everything, but he's rather stoic. Shh, don't tell him I told.

When I went to see it, I had just turned 19, and was halfway through college. I was feeling a bit sad at the beginning when we see that most of the toys are gone. I started to cry when I thought toys would really die in the incinerator. But I lost it at the very end when makes Andy give all the toys to Bonnie, and Andy has to say goodbye to his closest companion. It was even worse for me a couple of days later when I remembered the ''DoctorWho'' episode "The Big Bang," where near the end the Doctor tells Amy "You won't need your imaginary friend anymore," before launching himself into the Sun. Now I can't think of either sad farewell without thinking of the other.

18 year old male troper, and I started sniffling during that first scene...you know, the one where they cut out "You've Got a Friend in Me" right after the song says "Our friendship will never die"? Yeah. God I'm sniffling just thinking about that scene.

I was 19 when I saw this movie TWICE. And let me tell ya, Andy playing with his toys with Bonnie always gets me. Just hearing the music during that scene touches my heart, reminding me vividly of that ending. The first time I saw it a couple of days after it first premiered (which I believe was June 19th... the same day as me and my dad's birthday. Thanks for the birthday gift Pixar!) The second time I was a bit pissed off though. It was being shown at my college campus and the other students were LAUGHING at two of the most emotional scenes in the whole movie! The incinerator and the previously mentioned toy playing scene near the end. It helps a bit to know that they're probably so immature that they can only laugh as its their only reaction... still kind of a shame they seem to be completely heartless.

This 14 year old male troper saw the movie twice in theaters, once with my 55 year old dad and once with my 54 year old mom. Tears poured the first time, but I promised myself that I'd hold it together the second time so my mom wouldn't be spoiled to the ending. I failed. It didn't exactly help that my mom whispered into my ear earlier in the movie that I looked exactly like Andy. *cries ManlyTears...*

This troper went to see this movie right after dropping her older sister off at an informational day at her college, a few weeks before we would return to drop her off officially for her freshman year. I had a strange feeling in my stomach every time they talked about Andy going away, and this troper's mother kept crying during those moments, especially during the "I wish I could keep you" moment near the end. When it came to the I sat there, paralyzed, tearing up, my stomach tightening...and then came [[spoiler:THE CLAAAAWWW!!!! I think I shouted at that moment, something between a cry and a cheer, and I clapped my hands together once. And then in the final scene, I sat there with yet another feeling in my stomach, which climaxed when drove away and Woody said "So long, partner". Maybe a tear fell, but it was more an emotional roller coaster for me than a bawling session. This from the girl who cried during ''March of the Penguins''.

This troper is 19 now, and was 18 when the movie came out. Me, my twin sister, and our mother were all sobbing wrecks for half an hour after the ending.

I can proudly proclaim I did not cry one tear over this movie. My girlfriend, my best friend and almost everyone else I know did, but it seems my heart is cold enough to not cry over this movie. There is only one scene in all of media (TV, Literature, Movies, etc) that has ever made me come even close to crying.

GOD DAMNIT, just the page's image and it's caption made this Troper burst into tears as soon as the page had loaded!- abalam

This 15 year old troper, a veteran of the first two movies, sobbed like a baby during the incinerator scene. It wasn't the claw or the throwback to the first movie that got me during that part. It was the fact that there was no dialogue. No CMOH lines, no last farewells. Just a group of old friends facing the end together, as a ''family''. Said troper is tearing up as he's typing this.

Count this troper, 20 years old at first viewing of 3 (Only 2 months and 9 days away from 21 at the time) amongst the teary eyed. I held it together pretty well, but was reduced to a misty eyed mess during Andy playing with his toys one last time with Bonnie.

22 year old male here, fucking hyperventilated during the SCENE! But it all got better, and I'm happy to have seen the finale of the trilogy. Wanna know the best part? I saw this opening night with my mom...IN 3D!!! - Bob J.

16 year old here. I knew that wouldn't ACTUALLY kill the cast in the incinerator. Didn't stop me from sobbing my eyes out until the credits.

18 years old, just graduated when I saw Toy Story 3. Crap I was gonna be in Andy's place in a few months. *mopes* *tears* *etc.*

I'm 17, and when I saw Toy Story 3, I can safely say that my childhood was now complete.

snif* My childhood!
