Goodfellas is on my list. At the end when Henry Hill orders spaghetti and marinara and gets egg noodles and ketchup. That cuts to the heart of me.

[Hulka]

Indeed.

And what about “Lone Survivor”. . .made me tear-up.

I expect “American Sniper” to do the same.

[SkyDancer]

I read the book, saw the movie. Don’t remember too much of it though ...boys, rockets .... etc.

[WayneS]

What the hell is The Notebook?

[Jeff Chandler]

Rat Race. The scene where the air traffic controller looks though his binoculars. I laughed so hard I cried.

I just visited the town that movie was filmed in last summer. Came across it in one of our wonderful “let’s turn off the main road and see what we find” moments.

[ifinnegan]

Yes.

Typical of Spielberg hackness.

[cuban leaf]

The worst one for me, and it is WAY ahead of whatever is in second place:

Time Traveler’s Wife

[thefactor]

Rudy.

[Jeff Chandler]

Titanic? Ten minutes into that borefest, I'm going, "Just sink already!

Thanks for giving away the ending. I was going to watch that movie.

[WayneS]

Blackhawk Down

(seriously - although I may have been weeping with rage rather than from sadness)

[cuban leaf]

Dirty Dozen*. Duh.

*Obscure Sleepless In Seattle reference.

[Eric in the Ozarks]

“The Best Years of Our Lives” always makes me tear up...

[WayneS]

Well played, sir!

[CTyank]

“The Best Years of our Lives”

I choke up several times through that movie.

[WayneS]

I’ll second that.

[dfwgator]

I’ll save you some time.

Titanic in Five Seconds.

Phantasm II

When the 1971 Hemicuda got trashed

[cuban leaf]

You don’t want to see My Dog Skip, then. ;-)

Brain’s Song gave me some laughs though. A Pinky And The Brain episode.
