I don't know how many of you have seen this movie, but it messed me up as a kid.
Here is a review someone left on amazon.com. I have seen all the Peanuts movies, and this is the Peanuts movie that really makes me cry no matter how many years I have been watching it for (since around 1979 or so, when I was 5 or 6). It deals with the fact that Snoopy has gotten a letter from his former owner, a little girl named Lila. She is sick in the hospital and asks him to come see her (how did she get Charlie's addresss? Maybe the Daisy Hill Puppy Farm kept the Brown's address, and she asked them for it). He goes to see her, and then comes back. He then tells the rest of the gang (by typing out that he is leaving some of his worldly possessions to them, since he can't speak) that he must return to her. Here's where the sad part comes in--the going away party, and one of the saddest songs you'll ever hear in your whole life. It really hit me hard because my best friend at the time had moved away, and it always makes me think of that. This movie to me deals with losing a best friend, and then them coming back to you, which is what happened with me in real life. Also, you get to learn the story of how Charlie Brown got Snoopy in the first place (an incident on a playground resulted in Charlie's parents going to the Daisy Hill Puppy Farm and picking out Snoopy a their dog). But, as with all the Peanuts movies, there is a happy ending...I think that you could figure out what it is, because even I'm happy in the end after crying my eyes out !
She is right about that song, it fucking kills me everytime.
The only to movies I have cryed from are Grave of the Fireflies and Dancer in the Dark. I swear to god those movies will tear your heart out. I don't care who you are, at the end of both of those movies you will be fucking weeping! For months I would get choked up just thinking about them.
Oh and Baraka...There is a point in the movie filming poverty in other countries and I can't look at it without crying, plus during the whole scene they're playing Host of the Serephim by Dead Can Dance. The combination is brutal

The Shawfuckinshank redemption- when the old dude gets out and is soo institutionialized that he is suicidal. I cry everytime.
And Cruel intentions, i usually leave the room near the end. I love it.
Yeah, I was reduced to a blithering idiot when Morgan Freeman was eventually reunited with Tim Robbins toward the end of the film.
Thankfully I saw it on video and not in a packed theatre.

I cried towards the ending of The Iron Giant
I know - I lose it when he says "superman" as he flies to his doom...
I'm so glad I'm not the only one. I love that movie, and as many times as I've seen it, and knowing that he's going to put himself back together, I still have to wipe away asome moisture. DON'T DIE, VIN DIESEL!!!!
I never used to cry during movies. Now I do regularly. I'm such a little bitch. A Walk to Remember got me, too.

And that episode of Futurama with the doggie. That one always leaves me sobbing like a little girl.
Oh lord, me too. It's kind of pathetic, but at the end when that perfect song is playing, and he's sitting out there waiting through the cold and wind and snow. . .
*sniff* Excuse me. . . I need a moment. . .
Oh god... I fucking hate that episode. I wanted to cry but didn't... I'll never watch it again. I don't even want to think about it. *sniff*
I cried during White Fang but I was about 8 years old.
