No worries, I did too! That was such a sad moment and I was angry with Scar. I cry EVERY time I watch The Fox and The Hound.

Heath's 1st and final scenes in the dark knight also got me so moved. as if he's come back from the dead, then died again, if that makes any sense.



i was really moved by that as well.

was very surreal.

Third me on that. Those first and last appearances in the movie had me fighting back tears, in spite of the fact they weren't exactly touching scenes and The Joker's not exactly a sympathetic character.

Man, I've got a list. I'm such a baby. It's mostly kids' movies that make me cry. Movies actually made for adults rarely touch me all that much.

Hook, when all the kids are saying they believe in Peter, and later when Peter has to go back to the real world with his kids. It always broke my heart how he has to abandon the Lost Boys not once, but twice. They're just as much his kids as Maggie & Jack are.
The Land Before Time, when Littlefoot's Mom dies.
Watership Down, when Hazel dies. I love this movie, but I don't watch it much because I know how I'll react at the end, even though I know what's going to happen.
The Fox & The Hound, at the end when Tod and Copper have to seperate for good.
The Little Mermaid, at the wedding scene when Ariel hugs her father and says, "I love you, Daddy". I lost my father when I was quite young and this scene just makes me think of him and wish I could do the same as Ariel just one more time.
The Muppet Movie, At the finale when all the Muppets are together singing. I know it's a happy ending, but everything Jim Henson was involved with has this edge of melancholy and sadness to it that no happy ending can completely hide.


As for grownup movies that made me cry?

Finding Neverland. The whole Peter Pan mythos I find very touching in general, but the ending where they portray Sylvia's death as her getting to really see Neverland is what sends me over the edge.
Brokeback Mountain Does this really need explaining? Anyone who doesn't feel moved by this one just might not be human.
