We Are Marshall for sure....98% of the cast died within the first 20 minutes of the movie!!

ALWAYS when they pull the plug on Shelby in Steel Magnolias....

When Jack dies in Titanic.

And I know its not technically a movie but a mini-series, but I always tear up when I see the final episode of Band of Brothers when they say what happens to everyone after the war, and he says his best friend Lou dies (albeit not until much later in life, but still). Gets me every time

I would just like to clarify that I have never cried. Ever.
But if I did decide to one day, the movies I listed might be the ones I'd shed a tear to.

Armageddon - "i'm gonna have to break that promise"
WOW yeah....balled crying - AND i saw with my daddy

My Girl saw my dad tear up in this...i cry now because of that

Seven Pounds well shite...who doesn't cry in that?

Wall-E saw my boyfriend tear up in this. it was one of the 3 times i've ever seen him tear up. i was balling in it though. they were like love tears though.

Marley and Me not even a fair choice...i mean you don't have a heart if it doesn't tug on a heart string.

Elizabethtown

I had lost my father a couple of months before watching this movie. Really hit home. Balled my eyes out as he was driving down road thinking of his dad. Eventhough that plotline was the secondary plotline.

Great soundtrack, btw.

This for me.

The hardest a movie ever hit me (although it was only on the first showing), was in Click when Sandler blows off the Fonz and he walks away crying.

I was uncomfortable going to see Babe because as we were leaving to go see it my dad backed over my cat. We had to put it to sleep. Then we went and watched a movie filled with talking animals. Talk about some fricked up shite when you're like 8.

I'm not much on the usual tearjerkers. Prolly the Notebook in that vein. The Saving Private Ryan cemetery scene is completely overpowering to me. I visited it IRL and tell people it is the most emotional place I've ever been too. There are hundreds of brothers buried there, dozens of fathers and sons. Arlington is good and historic but the Normandy grounds are for only those who died fighting just a generation ago.

Lately I've been pretty choked up watching 'The Pacific'. After watching Ken Burns 'The War' a couple of times, Sid Phillips and Sledge start to feel like you know them. What those guys went through as teenagers, how they came out on the others side, and for something everyone deemed noble and right- I have a profound gratitude.

Yeah that's the one. It's a great movie. Has both sad and happy moments in it. One of the better animated movies I've ever seen.


Nice

I feel bad now because I told her I had never heard of it

Great movie. Forgot about that one. I have the soundtrack. "My Father's Gun" is such a great song, and the car scene with him driving with the urn and flashing back to him and his dad "flying" makes me cry everytime too

For some reason I get all choked up at the end of Big Fish when the son tells his dad the story before he dies. The musical score adds to that.
