Kind of a morbid topic...but I'm gonna have to go with the scene in the movie "Gone in 60 Seconds" when they kill "Eleanor", the '69 Shelby Mustang... When we saw the movie in the theaters I actually jumped in my chair and yelped "No!". I think my boyfriend didn't know whether to be embarrased or proud.

This was in my newspaper this morning. The one that whatever group had picked was the Psycho shower scene.

ok, I don't know if she actually dies or not, but I love the scene in Benny & Joon where they're watching the movie: "No Cindy! No! Ahhh aahhh aaaaahhhh!"

That hillbilly's death by an arrow in "Deliverence" looked pretty real to me.

Actually one of my favorites doesn't even show the person "die", but in Meet Joe Black, when the father leaves with Death knowing that his life is over but accepting it is a GREAT SCENE..

I love this movie, despite it getting really bad reviews when it came out.

I can't decide. (Not having seen the Passion yet, these are purely secular...)

Hans Gruber in Die Hard
Spock, and later Khan, in The Wrath of Khan
The Enterprise in The Search for Spock (that one hurt)
Mr. Creosote in Monty Python's Meaning of Life (that one LOOKED LIKE it hurt)
or Sloane's grandmother in Ferris Bueller's Day Off

I forgot the scene in Pulp Fiction when the "kid" gets blown away in the back of the Caddy. I laughed.

Hooch in 'Turner & Hooch'. I know that's really silly, but it was horribly sad. Tom Hanks character couldn't stand him at first and then grew to love him.

Death by reference only. Without the dead grandma as a ruse, Ferris doesn't miss school 'nine times'.

I forgot to add the alien from Alien.

FINALLY ABOVE the gnat line
I was beginning to wonder if anyone would list Old Yeller! Take J. Bruce's list add Boromir and Theodred from the Rings Trilogy. There's also the heroines' death in "I Want to Live" and "Madame X".
