    When I was a kid -- Apollo Creed getting knocked out by Ivan Drago.

    Those weren't tears, that was just a little bit of my awesomeness leaking out. Heard that on a SportsClips commercial. Sticking to it.


    Apollo wasn't knocked out he was Deaded.

    Deaded is more sadder than knockeded out.

    Man on Fire - after they meet on the bridge
    Glory - when they are marching on beach past the other men before the final battle - "Give 'em hell 54!"
    Braveheart - "Freedom"
    For Love of the Game - when the owner reads the signed baseball before the beginning of the 9th inning

    Crappy though the movie was, the screen was extremely blurry toward the end of The War Horse. When they're about to shoot Joey and he hears the whistle

    No actual tears but Marley & Me, Armageddon and Toy Story 3 are the ones that come time mind...


    OH YEAH, Armageddon when Harry says goodbye.

    I mean I could watch people die all day in movie all day long and enjoy it,


    But watching a dog die in a movie, I'm not a monster.

    This. The only time I cried more than when my dog died was at my Grandad's funeral.

    You should probably avoid the book "A Big Little Life" by Dean Koontz. It's about his Golden Retriever, Trixie. I cried several times while reading it.

    Now, if you'll excuse me, my monitor is all blurry. I need to, uh, go get something...

    Oh.. another is Hachi. About a dog who goes to a train station everyday and waits for his owner to come home. Well, one day his owner dies at work. this happens about 30 minutes into it. The rest of the movie (another hour) is about the dog who refuses to leave the train station until his owner returns.

    Me and this girl broke up amicably and a few days later she called and told me to watch this really good movie called "The Notebook" . I was babbling like a little baby,
    You know I called her back and let her have it!!!

    I'm too much of a hard *kitten* to cry watching a movie. My emotional moments come with real life experiences.

    I really appreciate you making this thread so now I know which guys on MFP to not pursue (in case I ever had the desire) as I cannot handle men crying unless it's the death of an immediate family member. So thanks!

    I bet your dance card is full.

    Men with emotions=winning.

    How about a TV show? Grey's Anatomy. 70% of the episodes will make you cry like a baby.

    Other than "jock scratchin'", I do all of the aforementioned manly activities, though I am not a man.

    I Am Sam (Sean Penn) is incredibly heart wrenching; avoid this film if you do wish to weep like a 6 year old girl.

    Dragonheart.

    Why'd the dragon have to die? =(

    Highlander - when his wife got old and died.

    Highlander 2 and 3 - because they sucked.

    Top Gun... when Goose dies. But in my defense, I was only 10. Now I cry because I realize that I wore the VHS out watching the scene where the gay and the lesbian get it on over and over again. Come to think of it, that is probably where my issues began.

    But he didn't win the academy award, know why? Because you never go full retard.

    I watched that a couple months ago and had the same reaction. But in my defense, I was only 39.

    I don't care how macho he is, I challenge ANY man to watch Hachi: A Dog's Tale and not at least get a lump in his throat. Quite possibly one ot the top five saddest movies I've ever seen.

    Ok... So if you're reading this then you admit to being a jock scratchin', beer guzzlin' (light/low carb is fine!), oil changin', sports watchin' MAN! So in the vein of all things manly, I've got one question...



    What movie(s) make you CRY like a BABY??


    I can NEVER get through Man on Fire (Denzel Washington, Dakota Fanning) without tearing up! I watched it the other night and purposefully got up to make a protein shake at the end so that I could regain my composure... Didn't work!

    What say ye?

    Best of the Best
