[QUOTE="Joshua Randall, post: 1724832, member: 7737"] Dang, someone beat me to [b]Ol' Yeller[/b]. I defy anyone to watch that movie (or read the book) without crying. [i]Where the Red Fern Grows[/i] is another tear-jerker, also involving dogs. Re: [b]Boromir[/b]'s death. I agree that the movie version is not how I envisioned it. I would've liked to see something like the classic Michael Whelan painting, in which Boromir is pincushioned with numerous arrows and surrounded by a literal pile of orc bodies. Then the camera pulls back and you're like [i]Holy crap, he killed three dozen of them![/i] [b]Spock[/b] in Star Trek II is a great death. 'I have been, and always will be, your friend.' And then Kirk slumping down and saying just one word: 'No.' That gets me every time. Not feeling the love for [b]Roy[/b] [b]Batty[/b]'s death in [i]Blade Runner[/i]. I mean, his death at that point is a forgone conclusion. But it is a great movie anyway. Kudos to whomever mentioned the movie [b]Ran[/b]. Abso-freakin'-lutely amazing movie. The scene where the king wanders down from the castle, with dead bodies lying everywhere, is incredible. Not really a death scene, but still great: [b]Han Solo[/b] in [i]Empire Strikes Back[/i]. 'I love you!' -- 'I know.' Now that's classic. [/QUOTE]
