25 Times People Shared Animated Movies That Made Them Cry, and Why They Might Make You Emotional Too
There are a couple of spoilers here, but if you haven't seen most of these movies at some point in your life, what have you really been doing?
Whether you want to admit it or not, animated movies can be just as moving as any adult film or romantic comedy. (At the end of the day, I might be a softy, but if movies like Toy Story 3 didn't make you shed a tear or two, then I'm worried for your soul.)
For goodness' sake, take a moment to think about the number of animated films you've seen that have made you question whether they were really made for children. What better way to feel less like emotional infants than to discuss which of these animated films made us all cry?
Well, a Redditor with the username u/molliegeorgie posed a question to the Reddit community asking: "What animated movie affected you most emotionally and why?" As you can already guess, they responded in droves, and the comments will take you back to a deeply vulnerable place, so consider this a fair warning before you continue.
Hold on! There are a couple of spoilers here, but if you haven't seen most of these movies at some point in your life, what have you really been doing?

As adults, we like to pretend that we watch children's movies just to keep our kids or nieces and nephews entertained. But you'll agree with me that since the dawn of animated films, they've been just as satisfying as any blockbuster hit.
