So I got this good idea for an image that can go on this page, although I will try to avoid heading too much into spoiler territory. Its the shot of kylo ren when he says the lines "I'm being torn apart". This is the closest image i could find. The image would show kylo on the verge of tears. But I'm not sure if it will be too spoilery because of what happens next

If the image does not work, then I was thinking this could be a good alternative

While it's a good example, I don't think it works very well as an image, at least judging by those shots.

While 1.2 isn't the best example in terms of context, at the very least it works for a Tear Jerker subpage.

She looks more scared than sad in that pic, so I don't think it works.

I see kind of a disbelieving sadness. It kind of works in the context of what page it's for, but it's not great.

I really like the Kylo one because of how raw the scene is, and its context (being the major tearjerker of the film), but I'm not wholly sure it fits.

Here's my suggestions:

1. Chewie bowing his head in grief at the end of the movie. With a caption like, "When Chewie is this down, you know it's bad." 2. Leia's reaction to you know what. Either a screencap of with her eyes open or without.

[up] I found a good image for number 2 although I couldn't find any online image for number 1 though

It's dark, and out of context it's not really better than the other one.

We can find Blu Ray screencaps somewhere on the Internet, I'm sure. So we can forget about quality, we have the means to get good quality images; therefore the focus oughta be what we're gonna use.

While I still feel Chewie bowing his head in grief is great, I can see how it could be funny out of context as well.

How about Rey screaming the moment you know what happens and after Chewie screams? She's got tears in her eyes, but it's just a suggestion.

Or, how about Rey shedding a tear when Maz tells her her parents aren't coming back?

it looks like someone already posted an image for the tear jerker page, do you think we should keep it?

That crop makes her crying more evident, so I'm good with it.

This thread has been collecting dust for a long time. Since it already has an image, should we just close it?
