Default Which movie always gets you?

I am flying back to Miami and watched the Warrior, and the flick always puts a lump in my throat. Badass flick if you've never seen it.

Which movies always get you?

Debbie Does Dallas. Just watching her share the love with so many people is so inspiring.

Braveheart


Not a tear jerker, but every time Kelly's Heroes is on TV, I get immediately hooked. I must have seen it over 100 times.

Courageous

Outstanding display
of honor
of family
of faith

It's what defines men as real men
Not the size of their bank account
or size of their Johnson
or how many notches on their bedpost
or the mountains they've climbed

It's about how they handle themselves
under the worse life can throw at a man

Jurassic Park... I always get weepy at the first T. Rex attack.

I'm a huge dinosaur nut, and having read the novel, I knew the movie had to be seen. They had kept the dinosaurs pretty hidden in the marketing, giving out just enough to let people know this movie was going to be really cool.

But that T. Rex attack is something I just wasn't prepared for. The greatest dream of any dinosaur nut is to see one alive, walking around, and I'll be damned if Spielberg, Dennis Muren/Phil Tippet/ILM and Stan Winston's people didn't deliver one to the screen. I wept, and she is still the most beautiful thing without tits or tires that I've ever seen.

For me, the image of that Rex, breaking through the wire and walking between those two Ford Explorers, ranks right up there with Slim Pickens riding a Nuke, Dorothy stepping out into Munchkinland, Darth Vader reaching out to his son, and a snowglobe breaking at the bottom of the stairs.

Gets me every time.
