Second best death scene?

[noretoc]

Since any media seems to be included. Flint Fireforge's in the War of the Lance books. It is the only one and any book I got kinda emotional about.

I thought it was. It was the summation of his entire life. He risked his life in order to save the captain's. It took guts. It took courage. It took... emotion.



Yeah, but it won't happen. They can't make Brent Spiner look the same age forever.

That`s why I didn´t understand why they used the whole plot idea at all. I always though the main reason for killing off Data was to counter this problem. If they had gone for a different looking Android, it might have made sense.
Personally I would have preferred if they didn`t kill Data - he could have left starfleet or the enterprise for a better job. I liked the idea of him being alive in 100 or 500 years, still holding all the memories of the great Enterprise Crew (and the later years of the Federation).

I never saw Nemesis... but if they killed off Data, how do they explain him being in the future All Good Things?

Watch the last scene of All Good Things again, and all will be revealed.

Here's something no one mentioned.

Watership Down. Two scenes in particular, Fiver's vision of the destruction of the rabbit warren and the end sequence to the film.

Spoil it for me. I don't have access to that episode. =)

Either when Maximus dies in Gladiator or when William Wallace dies in Braveheart.

Picard saves the day so Q revealed that the furture hasn't happened yet. It's up to us to make it happen, but be careful, because the Q would be watching.

Anyway, yeah Datya snuffs it in the movie, but they lessen his death by having him download all his memories SEVERAL times into the new android, saying either they didn't take, or they only partially took. So at the end, in essence you get a half-Data modron.

Though it could be surmised that this data never rejoins starfleet, and thus could be the one you see in the future of All Good Things.

 

[Phaedrus]

1. Maximus in Gladiator
2. Wallace in Braveheart
3. The Last Samurai... all of them at the end. "They are all perfect."
4. Tristan in Legends of the Fall. "It was a good death."
5. Elias in Platoon

And I have to agree with the individual who pointed out Flint from Dragonlance. That one choked me up, too.

And Arnold in Terminator 2... very cool.
