Ask Lemmy

Marley dying at the end of Marley and Me

"Superman!"

Buffy The Vampire Slayer, “The Body”.

Mom? Mom! Mommy?

Grave of the fireflys... Sometimes the trailer is already enough... F*** can't even rewatch the thing...

This gum commercial

What dreams may come, 1998 movie with Robin Williams.

The last 15 minutes of "The Return of The King," starting with, "My friends... You bow to no one."

Every. Damn. Time.

Birdman (with Michael Keaton) - nothing in the actual movie but the absolute soul crushing sadness when I realized that they weren't making a Harvey Birdman Attorney at Law movie.

The episode "The Sign" of Bluey, the end.

This scene from Interstellar. I'm thoroughly convinced that it is impossible to get through this movie without getting teary-eyed at least once.

"I have been, and always shall be, your friend."

-Spock, Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan

Been a while but probably the opening sequence of Up

A few episodes of Futurama. You can guess which ones.

Ending of the Sixth Sense.

"Grandma says you asked her a question. She says to tell you the answer is 'every day', what was the question, momma?"

"Did I make you proud?"

A lot of seens in Logan with Professor X. His mental decline was a gut punch because I was watching my grandfather go through the same thing at the same time. His portrayal was spot on.

Happy with Stark's daughter on the porch talking about cheeseburgers. Such a small moment, but so genuine feeling.

"A toast to my big brother George, the richest man in town."

Alternatively:

"You are who you choose to be."

"Superman."

Contact, when she enters the machine.

Buffy the TV show, when she discovers her mother's dead body.

"Mom? MOM! ... Mommy?" Tears

Into the wild when he discovers that human existence isn't meant to be lived in isolation and then dies a few days later in total isolation.

The end of Saving Private Ryan always gets me as well.

Maes Hughes' big action moment in Full Metal Alchemist - either version.

Alternatively, the scene this music https://youtu.be/EL7e5XrzanA goes to (Ep 5 of Cowboy Bebop) - far more of a tear jerker for me than the final episode.

Spock: “I have been and always shall be your friend” [dies]

Kirk: “No….”

I remember Click (2006) being very sad, but I haven't watched it in a long time.

"Despite knowing the journey and where it leads, I embrace it. And I welcome every moment of it."

The last scene of the last episode of Six Feet Under.

So I don't get to the cinema much, but I got to see The Muppets when it came out (over a decade ago, good grief), and Kermit singing Pictures In My Head totally broke me.

Dunno whether it will work for anyone else, but like many of a certain age, I grew up with the original Muppet Show on TV and it hit too damn hard.

Inside Out

Star Trek DS9’s “The Visitor”

General Waverly walks out in uniform to find his old unit waiting for him. (“White Christmas”)

Silver Linings Playbook. A real tear jurker. The scene at the end.

I cry quite easily, so a small sample of films that have made my eyes misty are:

The Remarkable Life of Ibelin
Bridge to Terabithia
A Monster Calls

All those crying Pokemon in the first film when Ash is turned into stone.

Paddington 2

The scene at the end of About Time between the father and son. I won't describe it, since I don't want to ruin it for anyone.
