-The butterfly effect: When I saw that movie I was in a very deep crisis with a girl who was my high school sweetheart back in 1993 and we got together again 11 years alter and we had to split and the movie was like the nightmare I was living because I couldn`t find the way of doing everything the right way again.
-Ethernal Sunshine of a spotles mind: The same thing as before, both movies almost killed me.
-Midnight Express: That movie was so depressing that I used to watch it so I could realize my actual life was not that bad after all, but now that I live in Venezuela with Hugo Chavez I see I am in the same situation as in the movie.
-UP: The begining of that movie is cruel and hurts.
-AI: The kid just wanted one perfect day with his mom. Actually, the last time I saw the girl in question I asked just that: Lets have just one last perfect day, and we did. After that my live turned into a living hell for a while.

Agreed. That was ballsy on Pixar's part.
I also agree with the vj for Eternal Sunshine of a Spotless Mind. Quite sad...
The Pursuit of Happyness is terribly sad.
Silent Running. Oh, dear God, it starts out on a downer and keeps spiraling down. 
Though, I will say, visually very impressive, especially for that time.

The scene where Beckett is listening to the aria is heartbreaking.
Saving Private Ryan
Reminds me that under all those little white crosses are buried not just dead bodies, but hopes and dreams as well.
Land of the Lost
Every time I think of what I paid to see this POC I break out in uncontrollable crying.

I agree. It was completely off the wall, but the ending on the roof kind of brought everything together and made it more emotional. I won't say I cried but it did effect me more than most other films I've seen.
The part in Short Circuit when they beat on Johnny5 with lead pipes or whatever it was they used. For some reason that has stuck with me
