fav character death scenes
This is where we mourn our fav movie characters who die in the movies.
top 4 for me... Adam Goldberg's death in saving private ryan really takes the cake. Ghandi's death in Ghandi Ralph Fiennes death in Schindler's List (I know he's a bad guy, but still....) mel's death scene in Braveheart waaaaaaaaa!!!!!! I cant take it anymore!! *starts crying*

Braveheart??!?! Well, I don't quite like that movie a whole lot..
Umm... (not in any order) Simon Birch - Simon Birch Maximus Meridius Decimus - Gladiatior Gabriel Martin, and Thomas Martin - Patriot Boromir - LotR: FotR Beth March - Little Women Neo - Matrix (Love that scene when he runs into the room and then Smith just kinda grins, and you see the shell fall on the floor.) I've got a few more, I'm sure- just can't think of 'em at the moment. P.S. Totally out of context: I was just sitting here thinking and I was staring at this book, and then I realized it said 'Middle Earth'. And then I woke from my reverie and realized it said 'Midlife Health'. LOL!

I forgot the most horrible one!
Oh! I forgot her name! The girl. The Bjork girl in Dancer in the Dark. That part is sooooo sad.

The Leon character in 'Leon' was sad. Still, I loved how the last thing he does is hand something to the Gary Oldman character and it's a grenade pin. KABOOM!

Billy's death in Predator
William DaFoe in Platoon I guess thats it. By the way, these are my favorite death scenes, not the ones that get me all sad inside.
