I watched The Great Raid today. It's about the POWs from Bataan, and I bawled my frakin eyes out.

 

I've never heard of it. I thought it must be old but I see it is from 2005.

 

they still make Muppet movies?

 

Yes there is a new one in theaters here.

Why is it by 2 pm you feel the worst? I felt a lot better this morning. I feel so blah!

and world war ii movies. and occasionally viet nam ones. um... didnt cry at et and made fun of my step dad for crying. so its probably just me then.

The Bataan Death March was the forcible transfer, by the Imperial Japanese Army, of 76,000 American and Filipino prisoners of war after the three-month Battle of Bataan in the Philippines during World War II, which resulted in the deaths of thousands of prisoners.[3]

 

The 97 km (60 mi) march was characterized by wide-ranging physical abuse and murder, and resulted in very high fatalities inflicted upon prisoners and civilians alike by the Japanese Army, and was later judged by an Allied military commission to be a Japanese war crime. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bataan_Death_March

I wanna rock right now

 

I'm Rob Base and I came to get down

I'm not internationally known

but I'm known to rock the microphone

this skyscraper?

Yes, that Skyscraper. The Spanish lyrics are different from the English ones (and by that I mean pop them into a translator and you don't get the same exact message).

 

Also, I can see what you mean about reminding you of Firework...I think it's more poignant, though, just in context. Demi Lovato released it as a single after she came back from rehab and whatnot. That's why she has the tattoos on her wrists--to remind herself to stay strong and not cut. She was also bulimic, I believe...so after she came back, this song kind of became an anthem--"I'm not gonna let you guys rule my life anymore."

Apparently the battallion I am in currently is from the guys who were at Bataan, it's the first and only time we had to surrender and the rescue that the movie was based on is the biggest ever rescue of POWs or something.

 

 

I cry in movies and books and tv shows all the time. I'm super emotional.

im labile but books give me enough distance to not cry. if i feel like its getting too emotional i put it down. cry over every other damn thing tho.

 

just not et. or... well maybe id cry if i saw the movie.

I cried toward the end of Abhorsen by Garth Nix...books don't USUALLY make me cry, but they can. I'm a sucker for movies, though. The Iron Giant makes me bawl every time.
