I know it's not the best movie, but in Star Trek X, after you know who dies and they're in the captains room remembering him.

Some of you mentioned Into The Wild, but nobody mentioned the scene where Chris meets Franz, who later asks if he could adopt him as his grandson, since he has lost his family.
... I had managed to forget that scene out of sheer sadness.

Tick, please turn in your man card. :tick2:

Just for watching the movie you should have to give up the man card

What if I own the movie?

You really have changed, haven't you? :biggrin:

Just remembered that "Radio" makes me weep like a baby every now and then.

The scene in Titanic where the old couple brace for the impact in their bed holding each other and let others who are younger go to survive...but it was during the time my grandparents were going through major health problems and I was young, so it reminded me of them and what could happen (death).

Rudy is a great one...when the coach gets sacked and you assume that means he will never run onto the field, the players handing in their jerseys, the end.

That movie was so under rated, I can't understand why it was never a bigger hit?!

And you can't say football because I am a girl and couldn't give a s**t about football...the story is beautiful, and again the score, gets us every time.  :smiley:

Rudy is a great movie.  I always tell my wife men cry over movies like that. She just doesn't understand us guys. :lol

Oh yeah, Brian's Song.  Been there, cried that.
Hef is right on all things. Except for when I disagree with him. In which case he's probably still right.

I just saw Dancer in the Dark so I have to bump this. Jesus christ, I can't remember the last time I cried so fucking hard.

Most of my others (movies and TV) have already been mentioned:

The beginning of Up
Six Feet Under series finale
Amores Perros (the dog scene JESUS CHRIST)

Also, Requiem for a Dream was the first movie to really make me cry... mainly Sara. She just breaks my heart, especially in this scene: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=clHCsZA0f6Y
and the one after Sara gets the ECT and her friends come to see her in the hospital

Jurassic Bark

Fuck, I have only seen this once and I practically bawl just thinking about it.
Oh Jackie, always jumping to the most homoerotic possibility.

Just watched Frank Zeffirelli's Romeo and Juliet again last night, and although it didn't make me cry outright, I felt like I died a little inside when I watched the two die.  They are the only Romeo and Juliet I actually feel something for.

Yep.  This came up in the movie thread as well, but I think what makes this version so awesome is that they just set out to make a great version of Shakespeare's play.  No alternate setting which is so chic nowadays, no ridiculous overacting by hacks thinking that that's what it means to perform Shakespeare, no innovative camera angles or other tricks of direction, just a solid version of the play, adapted to film.  And it rocks.  You get into the story, you care about the characters, and you feel it when they die.

Yeah, I really felt like I knew those characters, and when they died I felt as if I'd seen a close friend die.

Agreed with that version of R&G. Great rendition. I haven't seen that film in a long time, but I remember Mercutio(?)'s death being pretty moving too (whoever dies in the duel with Tybalt.)

Also, seeing it in class at school with its very brief nudity is pretty neat. At a Jesuit school, no less!

Honestly? The Land Before Time. The mother dies like in the first five minutes or so and it s so damn sad! The kid Dino spents the entire film yapping about his mama' and crying and weeping. I can't stand it!!!

Which is amazing considering my secular and supposedly "progressive" public high school at the time did skip over it; I didn't even know such a scene existed until I decided to watch the movie on my own about a week ago! :lol

And yes, Mercutio's was especially tragic, although I didn't feel for him quite as much as R or J.

The thing that ruins it for me is the line that follows: "My tummy hurts".

Didn't read through the entire thread, so I don't know if this has already been said but...

For me it's definitely the last 20 minutes or so of Big Fish.   And I don't see how ANYONE who has lost his father could react any differently.   I bawl like a baby for the entire ending of that film.
