“Field of Dreams”.
Brings out the sap in me every time. Particularly that one line:
“Hey Dad…ya wanna have a catch?”
"Thanks Doc."
"No son, thank you."
Then the realization of Doc's sacrifice.
That's the one that gets me.

The Best Years of Our Lives (1946) when Homer comes home from the war.
The very next scene, after this one ends, is his two friends in the taxi saying this as they ride down the street:
Fred Derry: "You gotta hand it to the Navy; they sure trained that kid how to use those hooks."
Al Stephenson: "They couldn't train him to put his arms around his girl, or to stroke her hair."
ETA: Everything isn't bad for Homer and Wilma. This scene might get you misted up too.
Homer shows Wilma how helpless he is. (YouTube)

Said by no one who had ever thrown a baseball throughout history prior to this movie. That line irks me so much
Yes indeed. That line ruins the scene for me. It’s either written by some dweeb who never played baseball or it’s some regional phrasing I don’t know about.

Honestly any movie about kids growing up right now
The themes of passage of time, people moving on, and kids growing up are really the only things that get to me. I often find myself looking through old photos and thinking of my kids when they were small.

That’s what I always assumed, so it doesn’t ruin it for me.

If you haven’t seen Never Let Me Go, and you want a full frick ugly cry, it’s phenomenal.
Andrew Garfield, Keira Knightley and Carey Mulligan are all fantastic.
I walked into that movie with a friend of mine having very little idea what it was about and we walked out afterwards and didn’t say anything to each other besides “Jesus…” through sniffles for an hour
Also, Atonement got me good. Eternal Sunshine. Little Miss Sunshine (Paul Dano losing his shite just wrecked me when I was younger). The Fountain.
Dead Poets Society. It’s a Wonderful Life. Manchester By the Sea (frick that movie)
Lots of Pixar movies like Up, Inside Out, etc. The Iron Giant. Fox and the Hound
Parenting movies or movies dealing with that topic, like About Time. The bathroom scene in The Pursuit of Happyness is tough. Interstellar gets me.
Movies like Legends of the Fall or A River Runs Through It.
When I was a kid, Charlotte’s Web got me and a little known movie called Galavants.

I can’t watch Field of Dreams. I tried a few years ago. It was a mistake.

Don’t watch Manchester by the Sea if you have kids. Movie is heartbreaking. Just thinking about it makes me depressed

I think Manchester by the Sea was the last really sad movie I ever watched. Too real. Too painful. I choose to not subject myself to those things anymore lol.

I know a lot of my "movie connoisseur" friends (lol) don't like Green Mile as a movie as much as I do, but I get absolutely emotionally invested in that movie.

Toy Story 3 got me.

I've probably watched this scene 2 dozen times in my life, and I still can't get through it without welling up.

I pretty much turn off any movie or show once losing a kid becomes a central part of it
I don't doubt many are good films/shows
But no thanks
