The Iron Giant always makes me upset
I must admit the Iron Giant always makes me want to sob
Im a big wuss when it comes to films though.
then you totally misunderstood the film
i've cried at loads of films. i haven't seen UP but watched that clip and although i didn't cry, i did well up a bit because of the personal attachment i can put to it. the end of the butterfly effect is another, about schmidt, the pledge, my life, meet joe black are a few more that spring to mind
A bit lumpy in "UP" but unfortunately the rest of the movie was downhill from there.
Depends what mood I'm in or if tired etc. whether that sort of thing affects me. Also the music can play a huge part, for example in "Outlander" during the massacre of the Moorwens on their home planet, the music hits the sweet spot every time.
The other one that hit me by surprise was watching "Bagger Vance" off Sky HD when you realise that Will Smith's character is more than likely...

God
End Spoiler.
Guess I need to grow a pair too!

This scene from the Green Mile always gets me
It goes without saying that there are spoilers in the video.

You're wrong, but I'm used to seeing that from you. I understood the film perfectly, I just didn't like it. I didn't say it was crap, just that I'm a big fan of Studio Ghibli but this is one film I don't feel inclined to watch again. What part of that made you think I'd missed something?
you describe it as a ballad of human misery
It is. Spoiler: The protagonist fails to save his sister despite his best efforts, then lets himself die due to a mixture of misery and starvation. It's one of the most miserable films I've seen. The phrase "ballad of human misery" fits.

The episode of CSI Law Vegas where Nick has been buried alive gets me =(
He's way too good at acting

why are they in that position?
It can happen to anyone with any film, you take what you are seeing and if it can apply to some part of your life it will.
In this case, you'd of had thoughts about your life with your wife and losing her and then put it on to the movie. Nothing sad or gay about it, just the way the brain works.
I find it hard with emotional father/son scenes due to issues with my own dad. Forrest Gump when he finds out he has a son and asks if he is ok mentally is one of them, as it is when Jenny dies.

Because their dad is serving in the navy and their mum gets killed in an incendiary attack. Good premise for an opening, really gets you in the mood.
Saying that, wasn't the opening scene a train station guard rifling through Seita's stuff while he was dying off to one side?
I cried at some parts in the green mile.
Also that bit in saving private ryan where the pussy soldier is just standing on the stair case with a gun sobbing whilst the guy upstairs gets stabbed by some german and he could have saved him, that really upset me.
Oh yeah and for some reason, the third time I watched the titanic it made me cry at the end.
only films I've cried on, some films made me sad but these are the only ones that made me shed a tear.

Try watching The Plague Dogs, by the same people. That's a disturbing film, truly...
That was one of the best things that ever happened, it was a terrible and un-funny excuse for a TV show.
