    Really i gotta admit that Marley and Me had me going near the end cos that Dog reminded me of mine but other than that i've never really felt the inclination to cry at a film. Got me thinking though is it okay for blokes to cry at films? I'd personally think it was a bit odd if i was in the pictures and some bloke was crying his eyes out near me (especially if i was at the terminator or summit).

    If you catch the ghey you will cry..

    The cinema is one of the most most common places to catch it... you were lucky

    No! Unless you're watching a porno then it's ok for your Japs Eye to have a tear in it :D

    I have shed a tear to many movies but knew that something was wrong when I got emotional to an episode of Home and Away.

    Not really but if you ever owned a dog that film is going to pull hard at your emotion strings.

    Few years ago that was one of the inflight films on the way back from Orlando. Kids screaming, women greeting and the men all biting their tongues. You would have thought we were going down.

    Year past May was the flight

    Of course it is BUT only if you are crying at a selfless noble death of another man, machine or dog. Even then when your bird is going awww etc you're obliged to grab her tit.

    Me and the boy watched Marley and Me a few months back and the both of us were emotional crying wreaks by the end of the movie.

    The one and only time I've caught him cry.
