    The Movies We Can't Watch Without Crying | The Movie Knights Roundtable

    What movies make you cry every time? We talk about the movies and emotional moments that still get us, from heartbreaking scenes and character deaths to endings we can’t get through dry-eyed. Some movies just get you. In this Movie Knights Roundtable, we're talking about the movies that can still make us cry no matter how many times we've seen them.

Why has the internet turned on Shawn Levy? Is the criticism actually justified? And should Marvel fans really be worried about him directing Ghost Rider?
