The Sea is Always Right
I always lose it at the endcan't hold back the tears.
i lose it at the scene with the box of chocolates monologue as well.
Not from a movie but the final scene with Matt Smith as the Doctor gave me the feels. The speech and
the return of Amy Pond.
Inception "Disappointed" scene.*
*This is best watched in the context of the movie. It's a pay-off to an earlier moment in the film, and it's cut between other scenes that make no sense without having watched Inception.

"Thanks!"
"Thank you!"
Gets to me EVERY-FUCKING-TIME.
I went something like 8-10 years without watching the original BTTF (it was never on tv, in Australia only BTTF part 2 was replayed constantly because of the future scenes being "cool"). I watched it for the first time in ages when the trilogy dvd set came out in the early 2000's. I legitimately teared up when Marty
Returns back to 1985 only to witness Doc being shot again, thinking he is too late with Doc's "dead body, only to discover he was wearing a bullet proof vest".

Dancer in the Dark (ending)
Seriously. I've saw the movie once. My friend and I bawled.
Up (Intro)
Went to a Pixar Master Class and they showed us a pen storyboard with original piano music for this sequence. Just as powerful in that state.
Wendy & Lucy
Serious. Dogs.
Shawshank Redemption
Brooks leaving
and committing suicide
This movie has tons of powerful scenes, but this is one that you can't help but feel for Brooks.
Love Actually
Jamie learns Portuguese and goes to Aurélia to profess his love for her to find that she has learned English.

So many good suggestions.
However, anyone who can watch The Twilight Samurai and not get 'feels' is beyond hope.

The ending always makes me sad too.
To name a few:
Her
Gattaca
Magnolia: Claudia's smile...
Benjamin Button
Also: Toy Story 3 ending, Iron Giant, ET
goes home
I'm sure there are many more but those are the ones that I remember right now
good one for sure...
for me...
Fellowship of the Ring - "Fly, you fools"
Fellowship of the Ring - "I would have followed you, my brother. My captain. My King...."
Return of the King - "The journey doesn't end here..."
Iron Giant - "You are who you choose to be..."
Most recently, Guardians of the Galaxy when Quill
finally opens his mom's gift

Ellem Burstyn's monologue in Requiem For A Dream.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sq0W-L1KKPg
Other than the performance being off the charts, the scene is very personal to me and quite relatable. Always gives me the feels.
From what I've heard, the cinematographer broke down at the part where she says 'I'm old'. I wouldn't be surprised.

5 Centimeters Per Second's ending
The ending of The Place Promised in Our Early Days
Ending of Wolf Children
Three of my favorite movies, and I love them all for the reasons you posted. 5 Centimeters per Second is some powerful stuff.
Adding a bit more to the Shinkai train, I've always loved Voices of a Distant Star. Can't get through it without at least some moisture in the eyes!

The rape and suicide scenes in Scum.
The Wall When the Tigers Broke Free.
To a lesser extent, the bite the kerb scene in American History X. The small scraping sound of his teeth on the concrete.

Just seeing this picture gets a tear into my eye....
So many feels in this thread.
I may add the ending of Shawshank Redemption. Teared up when
Red found the letter
This thread needs a dog movie:
I'm sad just thinking about this movie.
Ah man, this thread...
Lots of the ones I would have mentioned have already been posted.
A couple come to mind;
The stampede scene in The Lion King.
The end of Titanic. Jack waiting at the top of the stairs, the clock set to the time of the sinking/iceberg strike (can never remember which one it is).

The pursuit of happyness, where he has to spend the night in the restroom with his son.

damn you toy story 3
Dear God. The incinerator was intense, but the end scene between Andy and Bonnie wrecked me hard. I was tearing up like crazy, but then "thanks, guys" burst the dam. My wife asked me if I was crying and all I could muster was that finger-thumb sign for "little bit".
My addition: I know it's cheesy, but I still get goosebumps when Captain America leads the rescued soldiers back into camp the The First Avenger. You go, Cap.
I hated Joss Whedon for a long time after this. Like, it actually made me genuinely bitter and upset about the whole show.
I forgive him now of course, but damn, what an ending that was.

Toy Story - 'Falling with style - ending' https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dIsFg3FSpEQ
This one just really gets me. In a complete parallel to the beginning of the movie where Woody and Buzz dislike each other, with Buzz uttering 'to infinity and beyond' and Woody telling Buzz how he was just falling in style, to see them say the opposite to each other but in a positive way, is beautiful to see, as you can see how their friendship has evolved. Not to mention
It's all too much and I love it.
Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 2
The ending gets me, with the music from the first film in the background, the slow zoom and seeing them all smile. More nostalgia than anything as I grew up with the movies but a great way to end it.
Toy Story 3 - Everything from the dumpster scene up until the closing credits. I end up in bits.
Forrest Gump throughout although mainly the end.
The Shawshank Redemption, everything from the tunnel scene to the beach scene.
Saving Mr. Banks, where Walt
(just noticed Tom Hanks is in a lot of these - weird coincidence but I do love him)
Back to the Future 3 - Doc "Your future is what you make it, so make it a good one" (words to that effect, can't remember the quote word for word)
Hundreds and hundreds more but those that are at the top of my head. Basically anything Pixar has done bar Cars 2.

the rocket going up and 'will they make it?' completely bypassing the truck and straight into Andy's car.

I thought tennants final scene was better
This thread needs a dog movie:

You can see and hear real recordings of him barking (bark around 1:37)
The quality is awful since the recordings that were recovered are from 1934ish.

Cool. I believe they have a statue of him there as well?
I knew about the recording, but didn't know that somebody had uploaded it to YouTube.
The Green Mile is a really moving movie, but my favourite scene is
But nothing beats One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest's ending for me. Can't believe I'm the first one to mention it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jiOzfyliNzE
Delacroix's execution. The way he dies, and all after Percy reveals him than the mouse circus is nothing but a white lie. What a massive cunt, I swear I've never felt so much hate towards a fictional character ever again.

That's the only movie since Grave of the Fireflies to make me blubber like a baby hours after watching the movie. I am sure Clint Mansell's score had a lot to do with it though.
