“I see her, on the street. I walk down the street, I see her in someone else's face. I look at a German shepherd, I see our goddamn poodle.” Reign over me, got me crying like a baby at this part every time.

From the Homeward Bound the Incredible Journey when Shadow the golden retriever (voiced by Don Ameche) first appears after being missing and 'says', "Oh, Peter! I was so worried about you!" It guts me every time because Peter was so worried about him, he was the one in danger. Also because it was one of Don Ameche's last performances of a career…

In "no country for old men", when Llewelyn is gonna take water back to the guy in the truck, he tells his wife "Tell mother i lover her" she says your mother is dead and he says "then I'll tell her myself"

Also worth mentioning what an absolute shock this scene was when the movie came out. To kill off a major character, let alone Spock, was unfathomable to Trek fans. The original series was still immensely popular (which is why they made the movies in the first place) and to say Spock dying was a gut-punch is an understatement. It's not "just" a…

"My name is Maximus Decimus Meridius, commander of the armies of the North. General of the Felix Legions. Loyal servant to the true emperor, Marcus Aurelius. Father to a murdered son, husband to a murdered wife. And I will have my vengeance, in this life or the next."

I know it’s routinely mocked, but the “more time” comment in Bladerunner is mine.

Same for me too. I was a little older I think, but it was the first time I remember openly sobbing at a movie. It doesn't take much at all nowadays.

It's not as emotional of a gut punch, but when he steps out to head to the O.K. Corrall and Wyatt tells him that it's not his problem, Doc's response of, "That's a hell of a thing for you to say to me" -- one of my favorites in the whole film,

Project Hail Mary. Although I have to say this line hits hardest in the audiobook. Ray Porters voice acting just breaks me every time.
-
I don't know why, but for me it's the ride of the Rohirrim. Something about the score, and the grandiose gesture of riding to war and almost certain death. Big human moments like that always get me.

Broo yessss! The delivery of the line after she’s been ignoring him the whole time and Mel’s helpless expression😭 lump in the throat every time!

„You‘re safe.“ (Captain Philipps). This scene is so well done and realistic (to me as somebody who has never been nor observed such a situation in real life), and Tom Hanks just nails it. The professionalism of the actress adds to the overall scene.

Two moments from Asteroid City, when Jason Schwartzman (Augie) goes to talk to Adrien Brody (Schubert). Augie: "I still don't understand the play." Schubert: "Doesn't matter. Just keep telling the story." and Augie: "I need some fresh air." Schubert: "You won't find any." Both moments hit me like a ton of bricks.

(Why do you like them so much?) Because they stand on a wall and say, "Nothing's going to hurt you tonight, not on my watch.

“Because my Dad promised me” from Interstellar, when Cooper is asking an old and dying Murphy how she knew they would be together again. As a dad with a daughter now, rewatching the movie for the first time post-fatherhood elevated it to whole new heights for me. It was already flirting with being my favorite movie of all time anyway with those…

It’s not really a single line, but Adam Driver reading the letter that Scarlett Johansson wrote about him to his son in Marriage Story always gets me. Especially the moment he chokes up and tries to hold it together for his child.
