Second best death scene?

I can think of a few classics that haven't been mentioned yet:

- JD's explosive end in Heathers
- Heather #1's Drano cocktail in the same movie, including one of the best 'last words' also- "Corn-nuts!"
- The Earth itself as the finale in Beneath the Planet of the Apes

But everyone has forgotten the scene that beats both Roy Batty AND Boromir...

- Greedo's death in the un-Lucas-corrupted original Star Wars: A New Hope
"Yeah, I bet you have. BLAM!!" :D

Who's gonna whack Mace Windu in episode 3?


My guess is it will be:
Anakin/ Vader, but they don't know he turned yet, so Anakin surpises him. This is just a guess.
 

From Cowboy Bebop (the series, not the movie)
Spike. He's just finished an epic confrontation with his nemesis and emerged the victor. Injured, he crawls down the steps and he puts his thumb up and extends his forefinger into the shape of a gun towards the screen

"Bang."

He then falls down, dead.

Every time I watch this scene it gets to me. Every time.

Same here. I saw that, and I screamed "NOOOOOOOOOOO!" in the theater. It's always a tear-jerker for me.

Especially since it was so pointless and devoid of emotion. ;)

Seriously I laughed at that since they already had yet another 'Data' lined up in B4. Only now we can go back to the awkward android Data of season one.

/glad he didn't pay to see Star Drek Nemesis

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.
 

Another death scene that got to me:
Rorscasch (SP?) In the Watchmen comic.
I can't belive no one has mentioned that one yet.

Thorvald Eiricson in "the saga of Eiric the red", in a bad translation:

Thorvald pulled the arrow [from his guts] and watching it he said: "Its a rich country this one we found. A layer of fat cover my innards" Soon after, the wound finished him
