I still get misty-eyed when Optimus Prime dies in Transformers the movie.

The Notebook?

I can't remember laughing as hard as I did when the old battle axe starts attacking the old man. That was comedy at its best. Although the overall film ranks right up there with the classics such as Superstar, Big Man on Campus, and the Karate Kid 4: The Next Karate Kid. How a movie that completely gives itself away half way in manages to get a following is beyond me. But when the geritol woman beats the old man that was beyond hilarious. I hope thats not the part where we were supposed to cry.

Actually the part was when the family was trying to convince the 'old man' to leave his 'old battle axe' - the one suffering from Alzheimer's.

'old man's' reply: Thats my woman in there and she needs me.

I actually remember when the film Titanic was considered good. That was right up until the point where you saw it again and realized the lines were cheesy as hell.

"I'll take you anywhere Rose"

"Take me to the stars" LMFAO.

Titanic is horribly written, but it is still an impeccably well-made film.

Is that the one about the Irish family? That's a GREAT movie. You have to have a heart of stone to not get misty at the end of that one.

One movie that really got me was In Dreams , I think that is the name of it . The one with Robin Williams. I had a death in my family just before I saw that and it tore me up watching that movie . To this day I still can not watch that .

That's What Dreams May Come. In Dreams I believe is a thriller with Anette Bening or Winona Ryder or something.

Saving Private Ryan - absolutely great movie!

The scene at the end when Ryan asks his wife to, "tell me I've lived a good life." At that moment I understood my own father better than ever before. When a movie can do that it's awesome!!!

I watched "Remember the Titans" last night. Made me cry, especially when the one guy gets in the car accident. :(

I don't know why, but the scene in the hospital where the older (strong) brother breaks down crying gets to me every time I see it.


Life is beautiful also made me cry in a wierd combination of happy and sad emotions.

That one always gets me too.

The end of Gladiator always chokes me up.

Is that with Jim Carrey? I had to turn it off after about 20 min. Had no idea what was going on.

Really? I absolutely hated that movie.

BTW, I'm not a big movie crier either. Real life things make me cry more.
