[BubbaKanoosh]

I have never seen Good Will Hunting

[avengingtitan]

I like that it has brians song but the list absolutely fails for not having Rudy.

[holtom2000]

I thought I was the only one who got misty eyed at Armagedon, and wondered what my major malfunction was...

[Doc Jon]

Who the hell cried in Good Will Hunting?

And I never got the big deal about Rudy. The kid barely gets to go into a meaningless game for some mop-up time.

[Doc Jon]

I thought I was the only one who got misty eyed at Armagedon, and wondered what my major malfunction was...

That scene with Affleck and Willis?

Or the "space dementia" line?

Because I almost cried in both instances for different reasons.

[The Shadow]

top guy-cry films = EPIC FAIL

[guitarsmashley]

no marley and me? Really any movie where a dog dies.

I cried over the ten bucks and three hours I lost.

[Ntikrst]

Who the hell cried in Good Will Hunting?

Anyone who was abused/neglected as a kid probably looses it at the end when Robin Williams tells Damon it's not his fault. I get choked up just thinking about it.

no marley and me? Really any movie where a dog dies.

Oh man that was brutal, worse than Old Yeller. I forgot what's so sad about Turner and Hooch? Did Hooch take a bullet?

[Victorian Squid]

Really any movie where a dog dies.

I won't even watch those!

Most of the movies on the list I haven't seen, except for Snoopy and Old yellow, and I either saw Dead Poets Society or Good Will Hunting but I'm not sure which one. DPS I think.

[HNutz]

Up, motherfuckers. I'll admit it, I got a little misty eyed because of the "special award".

no marley and me? Really any movie where a dog dies.

I Am Legend?

[xaraan]

For some reason Big Fish makes me cry like a baby.

[mrorangesoda]

I heartily dislike Field of Dreams.

[sdsichero]

I cried over the ten bucks and three hours I lost.

Me too. I really disliked that movie.
