[brainwashed_youth]

[matcom]

"....you bow before no man..."


WWWWWWWWWAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

[LeftPeopleFinishFirst]

3. i cried too

then again, i'm a 16 year old girl

[matcom]

5. it was like "Rudy" only with 4 legs!

Wwwwwwwwwwwwwaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

[dweller]

6. Just watched it last nite

gets a bit teary at times...i agree. My daughters couldn't understand what i was emotional about, but the underlying misery of the depression scenario hits home.

GO DK...i mean, SEABISCUIT!!

7. Loved it.

But then I cried during My Dog Skip, too.

[MotorCityMan]

8. I was going to mention My Dog Skip, too

It was completely unexpected, but I sobbed for a half hour over the ending. I was SO embarassed.

[donco6]

13. Me too. And I was on an airplane!

:(

[LynneSin]

9. I LOVE that movie!!!

OMG!! I just saw that last weekend on DVD, and it was amazingly good! I had read the book so I knew what happened, but I was tearing up even so!


Edit: Byt he way, this is not Lynne, this is Ramsey, and you know I love you baby! :loveya:

10. It made Cheney cry too

watching all that glorius glue running in circles

*runs*

[matcom]

11. HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

'glorius glue'

YOU SUCK! :P

i bet you had a dry eye during Rudy too! :D

[SammyWinstonJack]

12. It was a few tears movie for me.

I just watched "Radio" with Cuba Gooding, Jr. and cried through the whole movie.

[SOteric]

14. Aww.

[Elidor]

15. What on earth was there to cry about in Seabiscuit?

It wasn't a tearjerker. Boy meets horse, boy races horse, boy breaks leg, horse wins without him - and, and, and -
WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!! :cry:

[LynneSin]

17. By far this has been the best post I've ever read on DU

and I've read a million of them

:golf clap:

28. You're obviously not from thoroughbred country

The Biscuit may have been one of those uppity California horses, but we Kentuckians can get misty over any good horse story.

[piece sine]

16. Two in One Year! "BIG FISH" inducing all-out sobbing

grown men are getting into crying....it feels good.

[RebelOne]

18. What's wrong with that?

When I was a kid and read Black Beauty I cried my eyes out.

[GCP]

24. Now THAT was a tear-jerker

When poor Ginger died in her traces, I cried my 11 year-old eyes out.

[Plaid Adder]

19. Wow, I hated Seabiscuit!

Watched the whole thing only because I was on a plane. What a pompous, slow-moving piece of cheese!

No offense intended to you, Matcom...I have cried over many a crappy movie myself. I cried over a Garfield TV special once.

C ya,

The Plaid Adder

20. Although I thought the movie moved a little slow, I have to admit...

...I choked up too. :cry:

[underpants]

21. Oh two months ago I said the same thing and I was MOCKED

I told you all you were going to cry.

:bounce:

[matcom]

22. wussie

:D

come, we pop some popcorn and watch Rudy. i'll bring the Kleenex

[GOPisEvil]

27. Rudy, Rudy, Rudy, Rudy!!!!

:bounce:

[ellie]

23. You should read the book!

I cried like an idiot and decided I want a horse. That Seabiscuit was incredibly cool. I like how he used to taunt the other horses when he was racing. And people say animals are dumb!

[GCP]

25. Yeah, it's great book

And old Biscuit was a great horse. I liked the way he used to sleep all the time, lying down - which is highly unual for horses, due to their anatomy.

[GOPisEvil]

26. The book is AWESOME!

I agree! :thumbsup:

[alwynsw]

29. "...and it marched to the sea like a giant shit Godzilla..."

Laughed my ass off at that line. Loved the book. Loved the movie. Aside from a couple of inconsequential changes for flow and cosmetics, Hollywood actually told the story as it happened. That amazed me.

on edit: read the book when it first came out. Hope I remembered the quote correctly.

[Missy Vixen]

30. I LOVE this movie

The book's even better. I couldn't put the book down till I finished it. I had no interest whatsoever in horse racing before I read the book; now I'd like to go to see some racing.

Matcom, guys who choke up at touching movies are a real chick magnet, y'know!

:toast:

Julie

:hug:

[jus_the_facts]
