TheOriginalOrangeGoblin 0 Report post Posted October 12, 2003 Everyone loves great death scenes. So which are you favorites? My Top 10(in order) 1. Tony Montana says "Ello" to Sosa's army, Scarface - Was there any doubt? If only for the sheer number of quotable lines and ofcourse for Tony's coolness. 2. The Wild Bunch's last stand, The Wild Bunch - 4 guys go to war with the Mexican army. Insane body count and a true way to exit for 4 outlaws. 3. The Best Mexican Stand Off ever filmed, The Good, The Bad & The Ugly - This is THE cinematic stand off. Eyes, gun, hand. Eyes, gun, hand. And so it goes until all three draw and quick shots go out, Lee Van Cleef falls dead, no slo mo bullshit. Classic. 4. The Best Non-Mexican Stand Off ever, Reservoir Dogs - The best stand-off ever in a non-Western. White, Joe and Eddie, guns drawn. Then the quick shots leaving both Joe & Eddie dead with White barely alive. 5. "Aww fuck I shot Marvin in the face", Pulp Fiction - Nothing's funnier than Marvin accidentally getitng his head blown off and Travolta's reaction to it. Priceless. 6. Eva Mendes trades her life for Johnny Depp's eyes, Once Upon a Time in Mexico - Recent I know but I absolutely love this scene. After eva set Depp up getting his eyes cut out she lifts up his seemingly lifeless body: Eva: Like what you see? *Gun shot* Depp: No I don't. Eva falls dead and Depp falls from his wounds. 7. Hackman doesn't deserve it, Eastwood doesn't care, Unforgiven - A wonderful movie and just a brilliant scene: Hackman: I don't deserve this, I was building a house... Eastwood: Deserve's got nothing to do with it. Amen. 8. Diplomatic Immunity Gets Revoked, Lethal Weapon 2 - Riggs is down, shot numerous times. Just when he's about to die Murtaugh points his gun at the villain. The villain uses his diplomatic immunity thinking it'll save him...Murtaught revokes it with a bullett to the head. 9. Here comes the Bride, There goes Vernita Green, Kill Bill - Vernita's death was just so unexpected I loved it. Pure adrenaline courtesy of QT. 10. See Ya Sonny, Godfather - Sonny goes to make a phone call...about 200 bullets later he's phoning off to the after life. See ya later Sonny. So what are you favorite deaths?

Steve J. Rogers 0 Report post Posted October 12, 2003 Not favorite because of what it was, but more for the furor it caused, but Maculay Culkin in "My Girl" I mean groups were up in arms about how much kids would be tramatized by seeing "Kevin from Home Alone" lying dead by bee stings (kind of a funny way to go out and in a coffin. Geez, thank God Culkin didn't make "The Good Son" as his follow up to Home Alone as you not only see him get tossed off a cliff but be a miserable, evil bastard child. Other good ones, Got to go with Sonny but Solozo and McClosky's scene was a great one in Godfather, and so begins the downfall of Michael Corleone. In Part II when Vito slices up the Don who murdered his brother and mother was quite classic, as well as Fredo's final "Hail Mary" with Michael watching on Actually Vito and Michael have great death scenes as well. Probably more disturbing for Michael's being utterly alone when he expires Greg Kinear in "Mystery Men" also ranks as a funny one Going out in a blaze of glory deaths would be Bonnie and Clyde, Butch and Sundance, Thelma and Louise and of course Jimmy Cagney in White Heat "MADE IT MA! TOP OF THE WOOOOOOOOOOOOORRRRRRRRRLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLDDDDDDDDD!" Joe Peci's Tommy in Goodfellas was classic, you saw it coming but it still gets you as a classic way of going out Steve Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Beast 0 Report post Posted October 12, 2003 I also gotta give the love to the Godfather films. I love all the ones mentioned especiallly Sonny's and Fredo's. Fredo's Hail Mary's do make it that much more tragic, along with the greatest scene ever. "You broke my heart". Not all showed the actually deaths but every murder in Se7en pretty much rules all. Then there are two I love because they are so beautifully sad. Dead Poet's Society's suicide along with Ethan Hawke running out into the snow in tears. Then Empire of the Sun with Christian Bale's japanese friend getting shot by Malkovich and his buddies because they think that Bale is getting attacked. Gotta hold back the tears on that one.

Toshiaki Koala 0 Report post Posted October 12, 2003 1) Sean Bean - GoldenEye Best scene in any Bond film, though the antenna falling on him was overkill 2) Gene Hackman - Unforgiven Someone metioned this already, but I'll quote the whole thing: "I don't deserve this - to die like this. I was building a house!" "Deserve's got nothin' to do with it." "I'll see you in hell, William Munny." "Yeah." (Blows his head off) 3) Robert Duvall - Lonesome Dove Took every ounce of strength to keep the tears from flowing. 4) Alan Rickman - Die Hard "Happy trails, Hans." So good they used it as a flashback in DH3 5) Yaphet Kotto - Live and Let Die Funniest death ever put on film. 6) Dennis Hopper - Speed Not really much to say about it, great scene though. 7) Michael Ironside - Totall Recall Ouch! 8) Billy Drago in The Untouchables Perfect build-up. 9) Robert DeNiro - Heat Really moving scene, especially with the music. 10) Peter Weller - RoboCop Truly painful to watch, don't even want to think about the director's cut. 11)Tcheky Karyo - Kiss of the Dragon Buckets of blood. Yay! 12)Tex Cobb - Raising Arizona The look on his face was classic. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BlackFlagg 0 Report post Posted October 12, 2003 the REAL Sleeping bag scene from Friday the 13th 7, though the Jason X version was funny as the holographic chicks kept laughing as he beat them over and over....and over. Liquid Nitro head smash from Jason X Bus Death from Final Destination, just one of those deaths that come out of nowhere and you just sit and stare at the screen for about five minutes then...laugh your ass off, heh. Said already but Samuel L. from Deep Blue Sea, just didn't see it coming. He was giving a huge speech ended it with "First thing we gotta do is cover this whole!" Shark pops out and bites him in half, another OMFG scene, heh. Reservoir Dogs stand off, as mentioned. Gene Hackman in Unforgiven, just watched it the other day, such a great scene. Curbing from American History X, makes me cringe everytime I see it. I'm half asleep right now so I'll come back with more later, heh Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

cabbageboy 0 Report post Posted October 13, 2003 First off, Isaac Hayes DOES NOT die in I'm Gonna Git You Sucka. Bernie Casey clearly states later than the bullets missed every vital organ and he would be ok. I've seen that movie about 1000 times. To me, death scenes begin and end with Cagney: --The legendary "top of the world!" ending to White Heat. --His chilling phony coward act as he goes to the chair in Angels With Dirty Faces. --Dying on the church steps at the end of the Roaring Twenties. --Not exactly ONE scene but I like how he shoots everyone in the Public Enemy and comes out riddled with bullets..."I ain't so tough...." then falls down in the gutter. Next scene they deliver his dead body to his front door and his brother opens it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TheOriginalOrangeGoblin 0 Report post Posted October 13, 2003 Some more from me: Vincent Vega's death in Pulp Fiction - I didn't want him to die but it was cool as hell seeing him get blown away. Arnie "lies" to Sully in Commando - "You promised to kill me last..." "I lied!" Bye bye Sully. Spacey's Masterpiece is completed in Se7en - Just the silent beauty of watching Spacey close his eyes knowing he has won. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest NaturalBornThriller4:20 Report post Posted October 13, 2003 Andy Garcia - Black Rain Lawrence Tierney, Chris Penn, Harvey Keitel (Although, he comes to) - Reservoir Dogs Joe Pesci - Casino (Always one of my favorites) Joe Pesci - Goodfellas Morris Chestnut - Boyz N The Hood (More sad than anything) Sofia Coppola - The Godfather Part III (I thought it was great for some reason) Robert DeNiro - Heat Al Pacino - Scarface Al Pacino - The Godfather Part III Everybody in Glory Edward Furlong - American History X (It was so unexpected. I know everybody didn't expect a big happy ending, but I figured it'd be Norton) Also, I always liked Fredo Corleone's death for some strange reason. The actor's name escapes me.
