Another one was when the chick in the movie The Abyss decides the only way two of them can get from their compromised underwater station to a safe station is she drowns and he swims her body over to the other one and revives her when they get there.

Don't know the name of the war movie but another epic scene was when the pipeline had to be run across the top of the ground under enemy fire, one section at a time. One by one the soldier would take a section out and go as far as he could until he was gunned down, then the next soldier would take it as far as he could, until he too was gunned down. They built a pipeline on the lives of soldiers willing to commit suicide to get it done.


That wasn’t a pipeline that was a bangalore torpedo. It was in the Big Red One.


OK, it was a long time ago I watched that. Really traumatic to think about.

When Slim Pickens as a sheriff died in the movie "Pat Garret and Billy The Kid". Bob Dylan singing in the background "Knocking On Heaven's Door" as the sun was setting. Epic.

A close second was John Wayne as gunfighter J.B. Books dying on the saloon floor in "The Shootist" as Ron Howard looked on. This was Wayne's last film and he was, in fact, dying of cancer as was his character.

Both scenes very profound.

I don't watch any movies except the John Wayne ones where he molests Maureen O'Hara, and the Mel Gibson movie where the Jews torture Jesus. The rest of them are full of Commie Ghay.

That's right. And he went off the skyscraper in Die Hard. He was a very good Bad Guy.

My ass isnt glued to a monitor in a mobile home.

When I post I’m usually taking a break from doing something else,

I realize that’s impossible for you to fathom. Your life call Jitterbug phone might not have that capability.

I can be on my back spinning wrenches on a creeper and post on here. Or from a backhoe, or from a deer stand or taking a few mins after bucking some logs.

Although the movie was a pimple on a flea's arse. For a death scene, Operation Barbarosa in 1941, has to be right up there with 1.4 million dead.


Well this is a fine pickle we're in, should'a listened to Joe McCarthy and George Orwell I guess.

Any movie where Kevin Costner's character dies is good. The sooner in the film the better. The best was The Big Chill, where Costner never even got screen time as all his scenes were cut out except those of him as a corpse. His face wasn't even shown, IIRC.

Percy Wetmore shoots Wild Bill in the Greenmile was pretty good.



Aldo Rain shooting the guard in the final scene of Inglorious Bastards was great too!

I immediately thought of Costner on this because IMO he does the worst death scenes. It seems like any movie he's involved in, will have the most drawn-out ending possible. The one he was in years ago with Clint Eastwood, is a prime example. Some of his movies are okay, but he can't get an ending right.
