The end of Turner and Hooch 
“I just got one thing to say… to my wife at home: Yo, Adrian! I DID IT!” – Rocky II
Michael whacking Fredo in The Godfather 2.
George whacking Lenny in Of Mice and Men.
Tony whacking Big Pussy in The Sopranos.
It’s always sad when a man has to whack a man that he loves.
—The Mummy (Remake version)
After the biplane crashes, and Rick goes to wake up Winston, the old pilot.
—The Mummy Returns
Imhotep’s reaction when his girlfriend abandons him. It’s one of the saddest faces I’ve ever seen on film.
—The mournful trumpet refrain from the Predator soundtrack.
I just thought of another one. King Kong getting shot down by the planes.
“Twas Beauty killed the beast.” [sniff]
The ending sequence of
"The Incredible Shrinking Man"
(I’d consider this a “guy movie” and an action movie)
Most people think of this ending as spiritual and uplifting but it is still very sad (to me anyway). Sorry for no spoiler boxes but most folks have seen the movie.
After all the struggles he goes through in his cellar, he never returns to normal size and even worse he continues to shrink. And of course everyone in the normal-sized world has long given him up for dead.
I get a bit teary at the end of The Shootist.
If you build it, he will come.
When Ray finds out that “he” is his father in Field of Dreams, I get weepy.
How did I forget that one?
That’s kind of the point.
(as I side note, I heard that Speilberg didn’t have Matt Damon train with the others so that they would build up a natural resentment towards him.)
almost forgot:
Rocky III - Mickey dies
Rocky IV - Apollo Creed is killed in the ring by Ivan Drago
Unforgiven - Ned gets killed and Bill Money takes out the bottle and goes ape-shit in his own quiet way
First Blood - Rambo and Col Trautman share a special moment in the bullet riddled police station.
Dude?! So NOT a guy movie.
A guy movie contains ninjas, mobsters, killer robots (giant or otherwise…not gay introspective robots like A.I. or Bicentenial Man), monkeys of any size, shootouts and/or explosions…not a whole lot of singing and dancing.
This movie is a good example, but there is a better scene. When he wakes up at night and realizes that there was no chance he could win, but if he simply lasted to the end he would prove his value to himself. Good scene.
How about the montage of the conscription of the commoners at Helm’s Deep?
The Cowboys - John Wayne dies.
The closing, cliff-diving scene from Last of the Mohicans.
Red Dawn - “Vaya con Dios…”
In Return of the King, when Theoden died.
Tombstone - Wyatt saying goodbye as Doc lies on his deathbed is one moment. Another, after Wyatt takes out Curly Bill at the river and Doc is talking with the posse, coughing up a lung:
Creek: Doc, you ought to be in bed. What the hell are you doing this for anyway.
Doc: Wyatt Earp is my friend.
Creek: Hell, I got lots of friends.
Doc: I don’t.
Back to the Future counts right?
Pretty much the ending of Part III, really… (I’ll miss that car.)
The scene in Snatch where Brick Top burns Mickey’s mum’s caravan. With two guys holding Mickey back, then he stops fighting and stands there, and then starts again.
My son and husband did not get all teary-eyed when The Iron Giant flew up in the air with the bomb. They did not swallow heavily when he said, “I’m Superman!” as he soared away.
It was a cartoon and men do not get all choked up over a cartoon. Nope. Not at all. Don’t even ask them about it.
