For me it was Andy telling Bonnie how important the toys were to him. We were seeing Woody's unmoving face, but we knew he and all of them could hear it all... but Andy didn't know that. sniffle.

Buffista Movies 7: Brides for 7 Samurai
A place to talk about movies--old and new, good and bad, high art and high cheese. It's the place to place your kittens on the award winners, gossip about upcoming fims and discuss DVD releases and extras. Spoiler policy: White font all plot-related discussion until a movie's been in wide release two weeks, and keep the major HSQ in white font until two weeks after the video/DVD release.
Well they mentioned a lot of crypoints that didn't ding me too much, like the first home movie at the beginning, finding out that Bo Peep was gone (okay, a little bit there), when Lotso was abandoned, when Big Baby says "Mama?" on seeing the Daisy tag, holding hands when facing the incinerator, Bonnie waving Woody goodbye to Andy).
I do love that they got the same child actor who played Andy originally to reprise the role.
Really, Hec, holding hands in the incinerator didn't get to you? YOU SOULLESS HEATHEN.
We saw Toy Story 3 this weekend. They did SUCH a good job. Casper now takes it for granted that I will cry in Pixar movies, and she herself was crying in fear as they headed towards the incinerator .
From a few days ago,
(I've probably mentioned, but the gypsy is a friend's aunt.)
Hunh. the gypsy is also FAQWife's former boss's aunt. Is your friend's name Liza by any chance, Strega?

quick-edit formatting is your friend.
Quick-edits on the iPhone are HUGELY annoying because of the auto-corrects. It takes almost as long to convince it to type a lowercase i as it does to just navigate to the wakas.
Some of those were crypoints for me, if by crypoint you mean "20 minutes of tears streaming down my face."
And some were crypoints for my DH, if by crypoints you mean "crying so hard he can't see."
For Mal, he had his hands over his eyes for the whole conveyor belt/incinerator scene.
I think a lot of it is that they are our toys too. I mean, we've had those characters for 15 years. I owned both DVDs before I had a kid. So it was lovely to have a goodbye, and in a way it was the goodbye most of us never get with our actual special toys.
And then there's the whole "watching our kids grow up" part.
The incinerator scene was terrifying, even for me. Sara didn't seem too scared, but she generally trusts that everything is going to work out okay, so. It's still one I can see kids calling out years from now, the way we were calling out movie traumas a week ago or whenever.
I didn't cry until the very end, which surprised me. Of course, it was right when I was thinking, "Hah, I beat them! Pixar didn't get to me!" And then the waterworks started, as soon as Andy started introducing the toys to Bonnie . I was a goner after that.

Exactly. I know how to do it, the iPhone makes it not worth it.
On my phone, I just type ii (which comes out Ii) and then delete the first one. But it's way less annoying than fishing out the HTML. I just wish I had copy and paste, or spoiler highlighting, dammit.
