That mobile phone commercial gets me, too.

I last got misty during Lilo and Stitch. Ha! Laugh all you want.

I don't get particularly emotional over actors portraying fictional characters' personal problems. I tend to be more moveable when it comes to historical drama, war films, and the like. Gladiator, Braveheart, Return of the King, etc. I also cry when animals are killed in movies. I hate that. The ferry scene in The Ring, when the horse goes nuts and jumps into the sound disturbed me and caused a tear or two.
 
Finding Nemo! and I kid you not. I don't think I have ever cried at a sad ending but in the scene where the pelican flies thru the dentists window and tells Nemo of a clown fish looking for him, I cried so bad from happiness. It was downright touching, no bull.
 
Ok. . . This is gonna suck but such is life

The Patriot
LOTR return of the King
Moulin Rouge
Forest Gump
Old Yeller
Cast Away I feel you ///M :D
My Life (seriously)
 
Well, damn y'all. Now I can't stop thinking about sappy movies. *More spoilers ahead*

When Haley Joel Osment tells his mother at the end of The Sixth Sense that her mother did indeed see her perform at a dance when she was a little girl. What a wonderful moment. Then Bruce Willis figures out that his wife was still mourning for him, so he finally lets her go and they do this brilliant fade to white from their wedding video.

Ugh.. I'm all verklempt. Talk amoungst yourselfs.

PS. I notice a lot of Return of the King mentions in their thread. What scene? Aside from the awesome battles and Golem's sad, pathetic tale, this film did very little for me on an emotional level.

Actually the Good-bye had the most impact on me. . . It really relates perfectly to what is emotionally straining me currently :( . . . It is tough to say good-bye to a loved one

It started with Sam on the rock talking about how he was never going to get to ask rosie to marry him.

Edit: Oh god damnit Dead Poets Society!!!!!!

That movie DID get the water works going. I knew I'd find one! That scene where Ethan Hawke starts running to the frozen lake and he lets out the most pathetic mournful sound as he tumbles in the snow.... man that scene was freaking powerful.

Then... at the end.... "Oh captain my captain". Christ that was a good movie. I need to buy that one.

Oh yeah. I remember being about the same age as the main characters and it really hit home. Great film. Didn't get the tears, though. I need to get that on DVD too.

As an aside, I think I see a pattern with all the scenes that elict a response from me. It all has to do with gestures of love inspite of pain, suffering, loss and death. Hmm. Cool. I don't get to pseudo-psycho-analyse myself very often.

Enemy at the Gate

The scene near the begining when the Russian soldiers were retreating, weaponless, from the Nazis at Stalingrad, only to be shot down by their commanders.
 
I've cried in a bunch of movies. Nothing lately, though. I usually just get all tensed up inside, but don't really cry anymore.
 
Definitely when John gets the chair in "The Green Mile", I was in some hot water trying not to tear up when we saw that in class once, it was senior high too.
Saving Private Ryan also moved me.

Albeit beside the point, I also cry (everytime) at the last Sniper Wolf sequence in Metal Gear Solid, with the wolves howling in the background as Snake prepares to 'put her out of her misery'. Bring tears to my eyes just thinking about it.

What I mean is, I have lived through hard times (similiar in intensity, and subject), so I was very moved by the story....it's quite a sad depressing movie. Personally, I think it's hard not to be moved by such a brilliantly written, directed, and acted drama............
Darren Aronofsky is one of my favorite directors, and directed another equally brilliant movie ( Pi ).

Some others:

The Green Mile (the ending with John in "Ol' Sparky")

When did I say I wasn't moved, becuase I was.

The only movie I have cryed in is ace adventura, when the little squirrel or what ever it was fell off of that rope over the big canyon or something like that. I was around 5 year's old.

Raccoon in the second movie. It followed the whole "Cliffhanger" film idea.
 
Dead Poets Society was shot at a boarding school not far from where I live, and some of the in town scenes as well. I know a couple people who were extras in it. The Extra Casting people just walked through the cafeteria at a large local high school. One lady pointed at people and the other one handed them a slip with dates and times to show up if they were interested. A guy who used to work for me had a big scene where he was carrying a Christmas candle, with a lot of close ups but no lines... it didn't make the final cut, though.

It is an excellent film. Excellent.
 
I got very choked up in The Shawshank Redemption when Tim Robbin's character finally escaped. It was a jubilant moment in that film and you couldn't help but feel for the guy. Especially when all the rain had not only washed all the muck off his body but it's as if it refreshed his soul.
 
I'm such a big softie when it comes to moving movies :odd: I'll have a good weep at anything! :lol:

Laputa: Castle in the Sky
Spirited Away
Forrest Gump
The Shawshank Redemption
Saving Private Ryan
The Green Mile

Boo hoo :(

Agreed. There is a scene with Robin Williams is in the cafeteria and he is talking to the other lecturers. He then gives a quote, and when on of the other lecturers asks who it was that originally said it, Williams replies, "Keating".

Can anyone remember this quote as I have been meaning to get if since 1998 when I did it in high school :confused:

If you like that scene in "The Sixth Sense", then you would love the last scene in "Jacobs Ladder".......
After the protagonist, Jacob Singer, goes through hell, and struggles with reality, flashing back to Vietnam, and his kid getting killed in a car accident, he finally accepts what he has to accept (don't want to spoil anything), He see's his Son, and they walk up the stairs into gradually growing white light, until they dissapear....

If you haven't seen the movie, I highly recomend you do. It's brilliantly written, directed, and acted, with great performances by:

Tim Robbins
Danny Aiello
Elizabeth Pena'

;)
 
Hmmm... It seems Saving Private Ryan is a tear mover and yes it also moved me. I'm going to say "Windtalkers" towards the end when Nicholas Cage is lying down bleeding. I also cried a few times during Antwone Fisher. Like that one part when he was reading a poem to Denzel Washington. Good Will Hunting that one scene where Matt Damon was crying to Robin Williams.
 
i think i cried on a vid on the holocaust in history that was mean what they did,i hope it never happens again
