JH,
when your baby girl gets to be about 12-14, watch "The Fault In Our Stars" together. You'll cry for the death and you'll cry because your baby girl is growing up.

I use this one in my public speaking classes, and it chokes up the whole room every time

I got choked up watching the last NCIS. They ended the episode with some wounded warriors doing "Hallelujah".

(My wife reminded me that was the song that was playing when Mark Harmon's character on "West Wing" was killed. Nice tie-in.)

That's a good one too. Another of mine is the original Red Dawn when the dying Swayze/Sheen brothers spend their last moments in front of the swing their Daddy used to push them on.

"Avenge me!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

I saw the remake a few years ago.  As a rule, I don't hold out any hope the new will match/be better than the old.  However, I think the remake would have scored a point or two with me if the boys daddy screamed out, "Avenge me!"  Just like Harry Dean Stanton.  THAT gives me chills every time I hear it.

I never could bring myself to watch the remake. Recently my Son-in-Law and I were talking about Red Dawn and he never knew the remake was a remake. I ignored the Old Man Moment and just told him to watch the original and tell me what you think. Kids! I was NEVER that dumb when I was that age.

Not gonna lie, several moments from Armageddon make me cry. Moreso than Pearl Harbor but a couple there, too.

Some have already been mentioned...

Braveheart ending
Toy Story - third one, ending
Marley & Me - we had a dog that died in very similar circumstances - even to the point where it was lying in the garden when we got home...kind of like it didn't want us to see it's decline in health
Beaches
Titanic (yeah...never let go always gets me)
The Champ
Mufasa's death in Lion King
Ghost

Definitely any film with a kid watching their parent dying or a parent watching their kid dying will get the water rolling
