My old GF made me watch Moulin Rouge, and it nearly made me cry tears of rage and frustration. Does that count?

Transformers The Movie - Optimus Primes dies
Star Trek 2: Wrath of Kahn - When Spock dies

I would have picked immortality. There's always gonna be more women to choose from.

I don't think many of the people here were crying (with tears flowing down their faces). I've gotten choked up over a movie, but never cried....

Oh no, there was flowage. I used to cry alot more when I was younger. I have been hardened by bitch ass girlfriends so the tears don't come as easily anymore.

I have to admit I will cry every time I write out a card for my father on fathers day. Makes me glad to have him.

Not a movie, but I cry regularly watching E.R. Pretty much anytime a child dies or has a parent die.

The list goes on and on, but that's all I can think of at the moment.
By the way, who is collecting the man cards?
I've got one for you.

I'm the collector. Turn in your ovaries too, I don't think even women cry this much :p

Crying during a movie is one thing...but crying during a movie and others seeing you is a different question. If thats the case, then 0 for me since about 7 years of age. Come to think of it, ET, Bambi and Star Wars may have done the trick.

Its mostly about the suffering he went through and seeing the other people cry, it was so sad. I was fightin back tears and almost broke a couple of times.
