I think my eyes got a little watery in Rocky III when Mickey dies.  I loved that old fart!

Not a movie, but a video game on X-box. Also it didn't make me cry, but made me feel a little sad.


SPOILER:








At the end of the game " HALO", after HALO  exploded, There was only 2 surivial. Master Chief and Cortana( A holographic  AI). It made me felt a little tingly because MC was the only surivial, when 200 marine soldiers died on halo.
Master Chief:  Has anyone else made it out of Halo alive?

Cortana: No, it just dust and echo...We're all that lefts...We did it, we saved earth, we had no choice..it over...we're done.

As a kid the only movie that I cried in was Transformers the Movie. That scene where Optimus dies was so sad and devastating.  I tried to keep from letting my friends see me cry though, but it was so sad.

Grown up for some reason the opening of the Lion King made me tear up, I guess the song was that powerful. I know I was crying during the war opening war scenes in Saving Private Ryan, just seeing all those men being killed got to me. I know that any movies where animals get hurt or killed will automatically start me weeping. Oh and the one scene in Miracle on 34th Street that gets me every single time I see it is the scene in which Susan (natalie Wood) is watching Kris Kringle work and a lil girl is brought up to see Kris by her mom. She doesn't say anything because she can't speak english. The mom had just adopted her from a dutch orphanage, and explains that to Kris, and when Kris begins to speak Dutch that lil girl's eyes light up.  Gets to me each and every time.

I'm sure there are more movies, but I can't think of them right now.

Oh and the Ewok scene hurts still, it's so sad.

When I saw Yoda die in the theatre as a little scoundrel, I thought the world had just ended. I cried and cried and cried...I was so worried about Luke, on his own, against Vader and that creepy Emperor. I cried again when Vader threw the Emperor into the pit (tears of joy) and yet again when the rebels were united and started partying down with the Ewoks. Oh, and I also cried when the Ewok died and the other one tried to wake him up. Return of the Jedi was an emotional trainwreck for my adolescent mind. I love that movie...  :'(

I remember getting a little misty at the end of Forrest Gump.

Regarding Henry.

I'm sure there are a few others. And hey, crying during emotionally dramatic performances is called catharsis. Its a Greek word, I'm a Greek guy, I'll enjoy shedding a tear or two during movies, thank you very much! ;)

Life Is Beautiful? I also shed a few tears for that one. My girlfriend was a wreck! The credits were rolling, and people were filing out of the theatre, and she was just sitting there in tears. (gave me time to dry my eyes out too! ;))

Oh yeah, I forgot to add Apocalypse Now, easily in my top five favorite movies. There are more than a few scenes in that movie that move me to tears, every time I watch it.

It happened again, twice in one weekend!

On Friday my wife and I watched The Pianist, we both started crying when a Jewish Boy was crying during one of the scenes in a slum.  It still boggles my mind that the Holocaust happened.  Seeing the boy crying made us both think of what we would do in a similart situation with our boy :'(

Then on Saturday night we watched October Sky which is a really, really good movie.  Couldn't help but get choked up in the last few scenes of the movie...It was the Feel Good Hit of 1999!

It is about a kid in West Virginia who lives in a coal town. Inspired by Sputnik he starts to build rockets with wacky results!
