    You either die a hero or live long enough to become a villain.

    This easily could have been a much longer list. Anakin Skywalker kills himself with his master to save his son. Randy Quaid's character in Independence Day: "I'm Baaack!" The T-800 in T2.

    Dumbledore in HBP
    Iron Man in Endgame
    Spock in Wrath of Khan
    Obi-Wan in OG Star Wars

    This was recorded years ago. The doc's death was retconned in Spider-man: no way home, and subsequent comics. Randy Quaid in independence day didn't have to die for the mother ship to be destroyed, the T-800 didn't win ( another retcon from after this was recorded, but he didn't even save john conner let alone stop judgement day ), Spock didn't technically die he was temporarily Mccoy, Dumbledore, obi wan, and Gandalf all came back and had arguably the same impact to the victory if they had not died at all. Tony Stark is a good one, though this might have been recorded before the release of endgame, but harry stamper from Armageddon...they just missed that one. great comments!

    If Thromby hadn't killed himself, Marta would not have been implicated since he wouldn't have died. We know that she didn't actually get anything mixed up.
    The real "killer" probably would have tried some other plot, but they aren't as bright as they think they are, and would likely end up being much more obvious second time round

    Barbossa both times should've been on here because he had to die so that he could finally sense something again the first time and so Salazar could truly die the second time. I don't consider it a death, but if it was, then Will Turner could've been on here too because someone sorta dying was literally the only way they could defeat Davy Jones and especially Beckett.

    WTAF. Jules, have you (slash your writer) never actually seen Event Horizon? It doesn't end with Miller's death, nor the death of the remainder of his crew. The explosion in the finale destroys the connecting strut between the forward section (the lifeboat) and the rear section (the gravity drive), not the entire ship. Miller is dragged to the hell dimension, where there is no guarantee that he can die. The rest of the crew are safely ejected in the lifeboat section, and survive. Seriously, one of the worst "scanned the blurb" instances I've seen in a while on WC.

    Neo absolutely did not have to die to win. Neo was a completely unimaginative man with god like powers. Seriously, he had his abilities for years. Smith had them for a few days and could do everything Neo could do but better. Neo was the worst of the One's.

      The Matrix was a great movie but 2 & 3 just went in a terrible direction. The writing was poor and heavy handed. We get it - he's your Jesus Christ. We really didn't need the angel wings and literal cross appearing when Neo died to get the point.
