Always wanted to ask this...
(Category: Other People's Stuff )

What movies have made you hyper-macho manly guys cry (since the age of 12 or so, besides Old Yeller)? Or at least watery-eyed, if not out-and-out bawling?

C'mon, don't be shy, let's show the ladies that there really are sensitive men out there!

And ladies, if your men are too ashamed to admit so, how about enlightening us with some of your hunky mate's tearjerking moments?

I'll tell you some of mine if you tell me some of yours:

1. Star Trek II: The Wrath Of Khan - the bagpipes playing "Amazing Grace" at Spock's funeral really get to me.

2. The Abyss: when Ed Harris slaps a drowned and dead Mary Elizabeth Mastrantonio back to life.

3. The Godfather III: OK, what did you expect, a happy ending to this series? He may have asked for it, but it was tough, watching Michael Corleone's life shattered before his eyes.

4. The Champ: The ending. Need I say more?

5. Titanic: OK, so I revealed just how sappy I am. Still, some of scenes where certain passengers resigned themselves to their fates (like the elderly couple on their bed or the mother tucking in her children while the ship was going down) made me misty-eyed.

OK, I've revealed my dark secrets. Anyone else?

I cried at the end of Aliens 3 , because I was so sad it had stolen that 2 hours from my life.

Armegadon where Bruce willis is staying on the planet telling Ben Aflect that he loved him, and then when he was saying good bye to his daughter on the video phone.

OK so its not a movie but that damn TV show "Extreme Home Makeover" gets the tears rolling. "The Wife" says I look like the Mayor of Wussville

#1 all time cryer - Rocket Gilbralter. Great storyline if you can stay awake to the end.

other than that - I'll cry at a sappy commercial...

Not one movie has made me cry that I can remember. Then again the last time I can remember crying was right after knee surgery when I woke up in the middle of the night and forgot I can't "Hop" out of bed... that hurt pretty damn bad.

Mask, but not at the end. It was actually somewhere in the middle.

Lilo & Stitch - Near the end when Stitch tells the alien wench that "This is my family. It's little and it's broken but it's good".

I'm tearing up just thinking about it. (sniff)

The Incredibles, when Mr. Incredible says "I'm not strong enough to lose you again".
