“I wanna say ‘Marley and Me.’ I’m just really emotional when it comes to an animal’s death and I really like dogs. ‘Cause I have a dog myself, so I would say, yeah, I cried whenever Marley died.”

“‘Up,’ hands down. It’s always the beginning. I mean, I don’t really need to explain why that movie gets me emotional. I don’t like to admit it, [laughs] but yeah, I cry.”

“I guess … ‘Marley and Me’ because I like dogs and I have a pet dog. Like, it’s sad to see other animals passing away.”

“[laughs] Well this is gonna be embarassing … ‘The Rugrats Movie.’ The very first one, in that one scene where him [Tommy Pickles] and his brother are stranded in the forest, and he’s about to throw away the baby food … then they become cool again. I love that scene.”

“OK, I guess ‘Titanic.’ I think it’s the tragedy of the story, and finally the man died and the woman was left, [so] she had to live on. The sinking was sad and the music was sad. Overall, all the elements just made me sad.”
