Your typical epics get me misty eyed (Braveheart, Glory, Gladiator, etc.)
... and almost everything Cameron Crowe directs. His combination of cinematography, music, dialogue, and quality characters can really dig deep down.

Don't have a list off-hand, but just watched Dead Poets Society. I've seen it three or four times, but this was the first time it actually got to me. Not so much a sad cry, but the final scene when it's clear what an impact Keating has had on that handful of students finally clicked with me. I didn't tear up or anything, but I did get this emo sensation all of a sudden.

It really depends on how one defines cry. The way some women cry during films and the way men do is wildly different in some cases. 
Anyway the follow made me tear up at least a little:
Armageddon - the scene where Bruce Willis trades places will Ben Affleck was pretty heart wrenching.
Serenity - the scene between River and Simon when we all thought Simon was going to die.
King Kong - Not to oftend do the tears leave my eyes, but this made them fill up enough to actually roll down my cheek (doesn't happen too often with movies). I teared up a bit during the King Kong on ice scene, but it was his death that really did me in.
The Lion King
The Iron Giant
The Green Mile
There are probably a few more, but I can't remember.

I don't cry but some scenes choke me up. Especially in
Bram Stoker's Dracula (the opening scene when Vlad is holding his dead wife and cries silently, when Dracula tells Mina about his wife)

I don't usually, but there's a few movies I freely admit to getting choked up on...
There are certain parts in Dances With Wolves that get to me, especially when
That for some reason always brings a lump to my throat.
And also, the one I can remember getting the most choked up about was House of Sand and Fog. I looove Jennifer Connelly, so naturally

Star Trek III as well when Kirk finds out that his son was killed and he basically falls back into his chair.

I agree with many already listed:
My Dog Skip had me bawling so hard, I refuse to let that DVD in my house any more. Dear God that tore me up, but I always felt that way about animals.
Iron Giant - like a little baby every time.
Revenge of the Sith - at the very end....yes, I'm a geek.
Star Trek II - I was embarassed to let my parents see my face when the lights came up.
My Girl - I was in a room with friends and I was the only one that cried.
One not listed yet: Saving Private Ryan. When I first saw it, I cried 3 times...sobbing, blubbering, snotty bawling. The power of D-Day has never been captured so realistically and had me crying at the severity of the loss of life. When Giovanni Ribisi died ("Momma"), I cried. When old Ryan asks his wife at the end if he was a good man, holy cow........

White Fang does it to me everytime. That part where he's yelling at the wolf to leave but the wolf has bonded with him and won't. Then ethan Hawke picks up that stick and the dog gives him that sad look,whine, and takes off....sniff...I can barely get through this..and the scene at the end where they reunite...damn, i'm getting all sniffy just thinking about it...
