Avengers: Endgame - when Tony's reactor light flickers, fades out and dies I bawled.  :bluesad:
We shall meet in the place where there is no darkness.

Gilligan's island, Goonies and Godzilla information booth here!

Yup, that one gets me right in the feels, and I watch it every year!

Also, the end of SAVING PRIVATE RYAN.  Every. Time.
"I shall smite you in the nostrils with a rod of iron, and wax your spleen with Efferdent!!"

ER

It's not an ending, but boy oh boy I have to fight off tears half the time I watch The Lion King and (okay not going to spoil it, just in case but) a certain character is betrayed by a certain relative and goes a certain direction off a certain geological feature, meeting his certain death. Man that is sad!
What does not kill me makes me stranger.

Gabriel Knight

Not an ending but an extremely powerful scene from an almost perfect argentinian movie: when Benjamín finds Pablo in his house in EL SECRETO DE SUS OJOS. It gets me. Every time.

The farewell from Katsumoto in THE LAST SAMURAI. As someone mentioned before, it was pretty much the only time Tom Cruise was actually tolerable.

The ending of DRAGONHEARTH. The score and overall situation mix amazingly.

William Castle's Teargas: The Experience.

If we're allowed to list things besides endings, I must say Bambi. Everyone knows what happens to his mom; that didn't get to me. Him running turning around & saying "Well momma, we made it!" got me.  :buggedout:  :bluesad:

Error 404 (Not Found)!!1

I don't remember if I actually cried, but I came close to crying at the end of The Alamo (1960) It might be a slow, pondering, historically-inaccurate movie, but the end is powerful:

Error 404 (Not Found)!!1

Same goes for the 1953 version of Titanic:

Error 404 (Not Found)!!1

And if we're allowed to list things which aren't movies, Bye,Bye Butterfree gets to me, even today:

Error 404 (Not Found)!!1

Same.  Same.

I also cried during Guardians of The Galaxy 1, when Groot sacrificed himself to save the others.

Don't get too close, it's dark inside.

Million Dollar Baby (2004) and Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon (2000) still get me right in the feels.
First rule is, 'The laws of Germany'
Second rule is, 'Be nice to mommy'
Third rule is, 'Don't talk to commies'
Fourth rule is, 'Eat kosher salamis'

The end credits scene in Wonder Woman 1984 was unexpected and (a) made me blub and (b) made me feel like a ten year old again.*


SPOILER ALERT


A mysterious woman is walking through a market and saves a child in a stroller from a falling pole. Duty done, she walks on and the child's mom catches up to her, pleading with her to let her say thank you for saving her child. When the person turns around, it is a smiling Lynda Carter. Oy: I am glad I was alone in that theater.  :bluesad:

The ending of Ghostbusters: Afterlife: the respect shown to the memory of Harold Ramis made me smile and then cry but happy tears. And then of course, these two words appeared on screen and I really lost it.  :bluesad: :bluesad:

FOR HAROLD
We shall meet in the place where there is no darkness.

Spencer (2021) was another one which made me tear up.

Kristen Stewart was brilliant as Diana: it is quite eerie how much she resembles her.

The visuals at the end are excellent and the use of the song All I Need Is A Miracle fit the sequence well: it is just sad that my Princess didn't get that miracle.  :bluesad:  :bluesad:
