Iron Giant, totally. I LOVE that film. It's so utterly fantastically funny. The animation and the script and everything. I seriously piss myself laughing at one point.
To anyone who's seen it.. the bit next to the pond (of course). The way Dean goes "We're watchin', we're watchin'..." and then flicks his newspaper up. Oh my god it's so realistic and just sets the next part up SO well!!!

Watership down... when Hazel's chest stops rising and his ghost dances off with the spirit...

Finding Neverland had me actually "crying." Not just that single tear or getting choked up, but like, crying. Nearly as much as the friend I saw it with.

Well, I can't talk about actual crying, but teary eyes happen once in a while. The last movie that made me come close to burst into tears was probably De-lovely - The Cole Porter Story. It just had the perfect combination of story, music and character for me. There's one movie, that I always watch when feeling sad, and that is Philadelphia. Third one on the list, but something I watch only once in a while is Pay it Forward - great cast and heart-moving story.

As for Lord of the Rings and other movies of such kind, I get all excited when watching them, and in certain scenes, if things come to a climax (especially when supported by a great score) I feel cold shivers running over my back.

Something else that gets me through emotions of all kinds is Six Feet Under, although not a movie, I just can't help being pushed from one extreme, laughing hilariously, to the other, when I really feel sad and all.

But there was only 1 movie that got me totally off guard, and I literally cried my heart out there. That brilliant movie was called:

Big Fish

The scene in the end, where the cancer-ridden father is lying in his deathbed, and asks his son "How does it happen?" (meaning how does he die). And his son, who always disliked the stories his father told him, that were so full of fantasy and magic, goes on to tell him his own death.

The 2 storm off the hospital, and the son can suddenly bear his father in his arms, and he takes him to the river, where he always was fishing and looking for that big fish. And EVERYONE, EVERYONE that his father was fond of was there, and they were all saying goodbye and farewell to him - and the father smiles and gets back in the water...

Oh my god, I was never ever crying that much about a movie - that whole scene and intention was just so damn heartbreaking, I mean what more good can you do to a person than make his death the very fondest moment of his life?

Peace out,
~Aetherfukz
Yup that was a really sad ending.
Though i watched it with my girlfriend so i couldnt afford to cry .

Hmmm... let's see...

*LOTR:Return of the King, right before the Riders from Rohan attack the orcs outside Minas Tirith, and Theoden is giving his battle speech. I don't know why, i think it's a good mix of music, lighting, and words.

<-------- Tolkien ^^

*Shawshank Redemption, one of my favorite movies of all time.

*Star Trek, where Spock dies. (I'm a hardcore Trekkie)

Can't think of any more, I need to do some soul searching, lol.

What Dreams May Come was a great movie. I didn't cry, but I enjoyed it a hell of a lot, not quite to the point of tears though.

Watership Down (Kehaar is fantastic! The general gave me nightmares and I cried, oh yes I cried. Why would parents let children watch it why? Why would they do that? )
Bambi - when they kill his mum, aww

I feel I need to stress that I was much younger when I saw these!

Films that made me cry with laughter:

Me myself and irene - for some reason the wheezy nose bit really got me the first time
Jackass
Dude where's my car - nerdy cultists in bubble rap *ahem* interstellar jumpsuits, enough said, Zoltan!.

The only movie that has ever managed to make me cry was Grave of the Fireflies , a WWII anime film. It's coincidentally, one of my favorite movies of all time.

Swarnt Brightstar

totaly...yup....though i thought Sturm was a ass (when i played the tabletop, he disliked me cause i hung out with carramon and raist all the time) i did cry when he bought it...
and the last Twins book...*snivlle......choke* kk....chocy time....

movies...hm, didnt cry at ET, but then i had the ending spoiled for me by some brat in my class

however, i did get watery eyed at LotR return of the king, but at a rather strange place. not the end, like the whole damn cinema. fully grown guys sniffing and coughing, and im dry eyed 0.o
no, it was when the guys lead by boromirs bother, faramir wasnt it? when they are charging out to go get whooped and whiped out. that ass of a dad KNOWS its a futile gesture, and he is out of his crown and his tree, but he sends them off anyway....*sniff*

(mind you, i have an excuse....one of my ancestors was in the charge of the light brigade, lol, so when folks ask me, i explain that and they are all, 'oh..ok...' then blink lol)

as to the other sad films, i havent seen that many of them but i tend to be laffing in the wrong places me and my friend, we were whooping and laffing in the battle senes in LotR (other than the one mensioned) and other stuff wh found funny or good, and the rest of the cinema were giving us funny looks ^^

Indeed. That movie is just too heart-breaking not to cry out loud.
