My List
1. The inevitable tragic scene of EVERY
Disney film ever made. Whether it be you-know-when in Old Yeller,
Baby Mine in Dumbo, Bambi's mother's, Mufasa (oh, God,
Mufasa

) in The Lion King, the village in Mulan, Aladdin's "Street Rat" dark reprise after that snobby prince mocks him at the beginning, Kala losing her baby in Tarzan, Todd's owner having to abandon him in Fox and the Hound, Grumpy breaking down into tears in Snow White, Penny in The Rescuers (just...just Penny), that horrible moment when you think Baloo has viciously killed by Shere Kahn in Jungle Book, and the end of Little Matchstick Girl (haven't seen it? Go out and find it. Just be prepared).
2. The resolve of
any Secret Garden film ever made.
3. Citizen Kane
4. Colonel Shaw's death in Glory
5. Pick a scene with Jor-El from the Christopher Reeve Superman films. ANY scene.
6. Gandalf and Boromir's final scenes in Lord of the Rings: Fellowship of the Ring.
7. Any scene with Sean Astin's Samwise in Return of the King.
8. "Earn...this..." Tom Hanks's final words in Saving Private Ryan.
9. Speaking of Spielberg...Schindler's List. That is all.
10. In any
The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe version, Aslan at the Stone Table.
11. As Malte has already said: The Green Mile. You know the scene.
12. Blade Runner. Don't know? Watch it.
13. The death of Hector in the otherwise lackluster Troy film. It doesn't help that Eric Bana made him the
only likeable character in the whole film.
14. It's a Wonderful Life. I don't even know where to start with this one...
15. Short Circuit 2. Johnny Five dragged to the ground and
brutally beaten within an inch of his life all the while begging his assaulters to stop.
16. Pick a scene from the latter parts of Forrest Gump. Just pick one.
17. Draco's death at the end of dragonheart. I have a strong fondness for dragons, so having a particularly likeable one like Draco die to tragically really did me in.
18. The end of any well-done Hamlet adaptation.
19. Heck the end of ANY well-done Shakespear tragedy, and some of his comedies.
20. Joyeau Noel, a retelling of the World War I Christmas cease fires. The soldiers trying not to kill each other after that really got to me.
21. "They look like big, strong hands, don't they?"
22. The closing scenes of ANY of the last three Harry Potter films.
23. The "Where They Are Now" segment of Apollo 13, where you find most of the crew died before ever getting back into space.
24. The Iron Giant. You know when.
25. The original and Peter Jackson versions of King Kong. You know.
26. Passion of the Christ. The whole dang thing. This is a film that renders even non-Christians to tears, so picture how *I* completely lost it while watching it.
27. Ever seen The Boy in Striped Pajamas? Make sure you catch the end.
28. The final bits of Marley and Me. As a dog owner, myself, well...
29. Finding out what happened to Hub's wife in Secondhand Lions.
30. The tragic bits of any well-done adaptation of any Charles Dickins book, ever.
31. The finale of Montoya's character arc in The Princess bride.
