Any scenes in the Pilot episode that made you cry?


I can think of several scenes on an impulse ;D


1. The scene where Pike's gang is riding through the city while tossing bombs everywhere and they almost blow that family to smithereens and then the husband says "Somebody's got to do something!" I don't know why but that causes me to tear up every time....


2. Jay's death...where Barry comes over to his brother's body and then screams in rage. "screams of rage" in tv series or movies usually come off as tacky or silly but this one just gets to me every time.


3. The funeral scene....the whole exchange between Barry and his dad(who's kind of a jerk in the show)is heartbreaking.

4. The end where Barry tells Shawn "Anytime you need me--I'll be there in a flash" the joke is cheesy and still funny...but the scene still makes me sob a bit.

5. The scene where he turns down the marrige proposal of Iris.....gets to me a little.

6. The scene where he tells discusses how his costume should look and then brings up the whole deal about his symbol...when he slams the "Flash" symbol down on the table in anger it makes me cry and gets me excited all at once...




Slobberknocker!

The OP has to be facetious because the scream Barry moans out when his brother dies is flipping HORRIBLE lmao.

Just finished watching it for the first time in 23 years, and almost all those scenes actually did make me tear up a bit.

However, I think Mr. Shipp should've closed his eyes and scrunched up his face for the rage scream.

The scene at the end where Barry is talking to his nephew is very touching. I really love when Barry is telling him about the race he father almost won. I can't remember exactly the line, but it's beautiful. I never ever got emotional over anything, then I had my son and now I'm a weeping willow.

BOO-YEAH!
