i kinda teared up when the old man dropped him off and asked to be his grandfather, its like he knew chris's fate

He probably suspected it but knew there was no way of stopping him from going.

That was the only part I almost teamed up at. That poor old man.

I just saw the film for the first time tonight.

That part made me cry. I felt really bad for him. He was so lonely.

I didn’t see it as him knowing Chris’s fate. It was more of not seeing him again. But it makes sense. This just makes me sadder.
