Far too many to list. I'm a super emotional person. Cry at movies, tv shows, some commercials, a strong breeze, etc. It's always for different reasons however. Pride and honor can tear me up as quickly as sorrow and loss. Same with overpowering love, or sacrifice.

One that comes to mind that I haven't seen mentioned yet:

Scrubs - Ben

Scene where they sing as they die.

Devastating.

I'm a Goofy Goober!~!!

Anytime we watch this movie at home we have to skip this scene, it's too emotional for my 2yr to watch.

I don't sob or anything, but I do tend to well up a bit at sad parts... some odd issue where I never cry nor feel sad when something affects me personally, but some random stranger in an obviously fictional movie? Yep, that'll do me in.


I don't have a clip of it handy, but a scene in Stephen Chow's CJ7 ( ** there will be spoilers ** ) when the young kid's father (Stephen Chow) dies in an attempt to save someone on the construction site and CJ7 resurrects him only to use up the last of his energy :(.

The Iron Giant- probably on of the most underrated movies of all time. Why this movie wasn't a huge blockbuster is beyond me.

The end, where the giant is flying up to the missle to stop it from killing the town, he closes his eyes, and says "I...am...Superman..."

Im welling up just thinking about it.

I LOVE that movie.

The espresso scene, and the squirrel up the pants scene kill me every time.

It wasn't the ending, but somewhere where they are separated when they are little, can't find the clip...
Here's the ending even though that wasn't the part I was talking about.
I know I've teared up in a few recent ones but I can't remember which exactly.


I remember that movie. I think i got very close. For me its braveheart at the end when he is about to be executed.

What Dreams May Come

Few spots in that movie, one of the few Robin Williams movies that I actually like.

I remember tearing up when Socks was killed in Dances With Wolves.

Of course I was 9 or 10 years old at the time.


Edit:

Big Fish got me also but it really hit home at the time with my Grandfather dying. He always told these big tales all my life about the things he did and it just really connected with me at the time.

:(

RIP Grandpa.

This.

Also if we're including TV, the series finale of Babylon 5, "Sleeping in Light", especially Ivanova's final narration.

** It looks like this thread is already filled with spoilers so.. **

Man, the older I get the more weepy I get in movies. When I was a teenager, I'd laugh at the "touching" shit.. Now, when Wall-E gets put back together and doesn't remember eve.. I get all teary eyed. No open balling or wailing or anything like that, just enough to my eyes blurry enough that I need to wipe them.

...But I wipe them in a manly way.


I also cried at Bolt, but it was because the 3D Glasses were giving me a major headache.
