Occasionally. Always when characters display traits I admire or take the final step into heroic self-realization.
Good example is Wreck-It Ralph. I'm a lot like Ralph. I don't care for my job all that much, feel unappreciated, like life is an endless succession of identical no-win scenarios, like I've somehow been unfairly labeled a villain in my own story, that there should be something more to life, to me, to whatever. Ralph is asked to say the line, "There's no one I'd rather be than me," early on and can't bring himself to do it. His journey through selfishness and dissatisfaction ends in heroic self-sacrifice where he says the line and really means it. That got to me because I've always wanted a moment like that, not necessarily one where I threw myself to death but a moment where life makes sense and I feel like something other than a loser.
