1. Life As A House
2. I Am Sam
3. Old Yeller (of course)

And two others that I cried after, but others may not be as emotional :P - "Into the Wild" and "Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King". I related so much to the main character of Into the Wild, and when the hobbits had to say goodbye to Frodo at the end...that just broke my heart!! Lol, yes I'm a geek :S

OMG - I forgot all about them. Yes, I agree - tears of hilarity!

Saving Private Ryan
the very end of both Braveheart and Gladiator
parts of The Patriot

those are just off the top of my head

I don't ball my eyes out, but as a guy those are some pretty weak moments for me.

What Dreams May Come... I literally cry the entire time because I know what's coming up.

I used to watch those Lifetime movies and cry... my dad calls them "bad man movies"

Imitation of Life (Lana Turner, Sandra Dee, etc.). I have it on DVD, but I can't tell you the last time I watched it. It makes me cry too hard at the end.

The last episode of John Adams had me crying pretty hard.

I'm sure there have been others.
