    I agree about Toy Story 3. And Up - I cried through that, too. It's funny, thinking about crying at cartoons.

    Cinema Paradiso - the ending. If you haven't seen it, I don't want to give it away. But I remember crying out loud. Big tears.

    Backdraft - "Who's your brother, Brian?"

    Mr. Holland's Opus - Dreyfus's reaction whenever they invite him up to conduct gets me every time.

    Slingblade

    Can't think of any more at the moment.
    That's a big one for me. I love that movie.

    The Music Never Stopped gets me as well.

    Rudy will get me every time too. The scene when the other players bring their jerseys into the coaches office and lay them down on his desk.

    I know there are others, but I can't think of any right now lol

    Certainly one of mine too. One of my favourite endings ever. Very subtle, very human.



    To be honest it doesn't take much for me to shed a tear when it comes to movies. I'm just a big 'ol softey :D

    Field of Dreams
  • Regarding Field of Dreams, I just saw this on msn:

    http://usnews.nbcnews.com/_news/2013/01 ... site?lite=

    The "Field of Dreams," a nearly 200-acre parcel of Iowa land made famous in the 1989 Kevin Costner film of the same name, will live on and give young people a lesson in life.

    An investment group led by Oak Lawn, Iowa-based couple Denise and Mark Stillman closed the deal last week after more than two and a half years.

    Denise Stillman on Wednesday recalled the moment she told her husband they should buy the property.
    "[It was] over pizza by a swimming pool the night that he told me it was for sale. I said we should build a Cooperstown facility like that at the 'Field of Dreams' movie site," she recalled.

    In the future, the site will be a sprawling complex built specifically for youth sports, including 24 baseball diamonds and 60 clubhouses.

    "We're going to do things like build a summer camp where kids from the inner city came come to Iowa and learn about how to be a great human being through sports," she added.

    There are some eerie coincidences between the film and the site's real-life purchase.
    "We've actually talked about the similarity between the movie and real life except the tables are turned in the genders. The wife is that one that's proverbially the crazy one," Stillman said with a laugh.

    She said she knew convincing her husband wouldn't be difficult, recalling their early days together in college at Bradley University.

    " came out on tape and we watched it in the dorm and he cried, so I thought he was pretty OK," she said.

    Stillman also has the support of actor Kevin Costner. She said the star lauded her effort and thanked her for keeping the dream alive.

    "He just chuckled and said, 'I'm so glad that someone is saving that. It's my favorite place on Earth,'" Stillman said.

    The first phase of the $40 million project should be complete in the spring of 2014. Stillman said youth baseball teams from as far away as California and Florida are already signed up to compete in tournaments.

    Terms of Endearment

    Emma Horton: OK then, will you listen especially close?
    Tommy Horton: What?
    Emma Horton: Listen real hard?
    Tommy Horton: I said 'what'?
    Emma Horton: I know you like me. I know it. For the last year or two, you've been pretending like you hate me. I love you very much. I love you as much as I love anybody, as much as I love myself. And in a few years when I haven't been around to be on your tail about something or irritating you, you could... remember that time that I bought you the baseball glove when you thought we were too broke. You know? Or when I read you those stories? Or when I let you goof off instead of mowing the lawn? Lots of things like that. And you're gonna realize that you love me. And maybe you're gonna feel badly, because you never told me. But don't - I know that you love me. So don't ever do that to yourself, all right.

    Yes, there are many. One that stands out is Seven Pounds. Literally sobbed in the theater like a blubbering idiot.

    ..oh, and Titanic gets me every time I see the scene where they're on the water and Rose realizes that Jack is dead.

    Or when Bubba says «I want to go home». There is so many goods moments in that movie.

    Other movie that make me shed a tear :
    - Finding Neverland : the last chat on the park bench between James (Johnny Deep) and Peter (Freedie Highmore) is so sad!
    - Mystic River : When Sean Penn is out of control because he want to know if they found his daughter.

    "Dad. You wanna have a catch?"

    I went the longest time without seeing this movie. Holy crap the flood gates opened. My dad died when I was 21. so I told my son to never let me say no when he asks me that question.

    Pay It Forward can be a tear jerker at times.
  • Apparently, Les Mis will make you cry:

    I like when the dad says that he has been to family funerals without crying like this. :lol:
    The love he receives is the love that is saved
  • I see someone already mentioned " seven pounds" , I forgot about that one, watching it right now and having a few beers. Pretty sure where this is going.

    I don't remember crying because of a movie
  • I cried like a motherfucker watching Die Hard this afternoon.

    The part where he runs on broken glass in bare feet

    Dumb and dumber as well, when Harry and Lloyd get to Aspen on the mini bike. Heart wrenching
