I remember that sergeant in Platoon
Neal in Dead poet society
Bambis mom
Rue in Hunger games
Steel or whatever his name was in CSI Miami
Tinkerbell in Peter Pan (okey, she didnt die but you thought it for awhile)
Baloo in the Jungle Book (actually you both cry and laugh at the sametime because he isnt dead, just Mowgli and Baghera thinking so.
Neil in DPS was so tragic.

Movie: Funny enough, it wasn't a person, but a thing. In Castaway with Tom Hanks when he loses "Wilson", his soccer ball. I went into the manly biting my cheeks, stiff upper lip, cough cough...lol. Couldn't help it.

TV: Breaking Bad
When Walt goes looking for Jessie at the crack house following the aftermath of Jane's death. Man, that one got me. I guess you have to see the scene.
I might be wrong but I think 'Wilson' was a volleyball. =D

He didn't die but nearly did, in the movie "Paulie" the bird. I also remember watching one episode of "The Littlest Hobo" when he got hurt and nealy died. Same as in Flipper. Flipper faster than lightining under the sea, they call him flipper.

I didn't watch Midnight Cowboy when it came out - or really, at all - but I'm told by my contemporaries that when Ratso Rizzo shuffled off the mortal coil and Joe Buck draws him in and describes the guy as his friend, it was a waterworks moment. That's what I hear.

Yes, the ending of Midnight Cowboy is a real waterworks moment, for sure.

Absolutely. Cried like the wind blows.

Have you ever seen the movie 'Deliverance', Grandpa?

GGAAAHH! Dobby! I cry every time I watch that movie (or read the book). I also cry when Harry is talking to
the ghosts of his mom, dad, Lupin, and Sirius. He's getting ready to die and asks, "Will it hurt?" :m_award:--tearing up right now thinking about it.

I'm tearing up reading this post and thinking of how hard I sobbed reading the scenes.

Under your bed
Spock, Star Trek II. I was eight, okay?

Rorschach, Watchmen. Movie and Comic.

Valeria and Conan's mom in Millius's Conan the Barbarian. I had to...Conan no cry, he's a Cimmerian...so I cry FOR HIM!

The little red coat girl in Schindler's List. Oh crap, I might cry right now.

Gage Creed, movie and book (more so inna book).

I cry pretty easily during movies, though. Ain't ashamed to admit it. Writers and artists feel things more. I'm both, so...

I'm a crier too. And sometimes cry as odd parts in the movie, when others are just watching.

I cried yesterday watching
Big Hero Six with my son and the brother died. I cried when the little boy in Pay it Forward died. I have been told by my (long deceased) father that when I was a little kid I watched a movie called The Battle of the Green Berets, after which I was inconsolable because a dog died.:grumpy:
Sometimes I tear up during a random commercial too. Usually any movie were a kid dies I cry, that is with the exception of Pet Semetary. I saw that when I was little, and the image of
Gage getting hit by the truck
is one that's been ingrained into my psyche.:shock: My kids don't understand why I am so overprotective about them walking near roads. I also had a friend killed like that when I was very young.
