Best Death Scene
What do you guys think are the best death scenes in movies, from villians to heros to all those in between?
I think that William Wallace's from Braveheart is fantastic, but I also love Satine's in Moulin Rouge and Boromir's in LOTR: FOTR.
What about you?

Already took mine w/ Boromir..so, I'll go with Kane in "Alien" with the chestburster, or even sadder..Sonny in "The Godfather", at the tool booth.

I would have said Boromir to, very heroic.
I think the way Ed Bloom dies in Big Fish is incredible, getting his son to tell him the story, turning into the fish.
I also like in Finding Neverland how Sylvia enters Neverland, the symbolism to death... breathtaking really.
Almost forgot King Theodon... 'I know your face... Eowyn'
Another one would be Maximus in Gladiator, walking through the field to meet his family.

Yeah the Big Fish and Finding Neverland ones were very good as well....for some reason I didn't like Theoden's...
I think I just have something against the Rohirrim.

Katsumoto in The Last Samurai. It was a good death.
[With his dying breath while looking at the blossoms]
Katsumoto: Perfect... They are all... perfect...

Another one I thought of is Fred Aberline in From Hell. I think its nice how Sarge.Godleigh asks what the coins mean towards the beginning,then when he finds Aberline dead the coins are in this hand.
Strange contrast really from the other deaths in this film.

Have to agree with you on Rutger Hauer's death in BR. That was well done.
I give props also to the end of Big Fish.
