Your favourite death from a film. Any death, ever shown on screen.
So many to choose from, so feel free to list a few if you like. You could also cadigorize them. ie. Gun death, Sword death, Style, Lead in etc. You can also detail the reasons for your ranking if you wish.
Il start with some of mine.
Possible spoilers
Tony Montana - Scarface- "say hello to my lil friend" *Dialogue*
O-Ren Ishii- Kill Bill 1- That was a whole lot of minions to cut through *Lead in*
The Man - Versus- The head kick was spectacular *Style*
Marvin - Pulp Fiction - still funny after 100 times *Humor*

Pitch Black: Johns gets his head bitten off.
There are a bunch of others, but I can't think of them off the top of my head.

Gotta be Screwface from Marked For Death - he gets stabbed repeatedly, then gets his back broken, then gets thrown down an elevator shaft... where he gets impaled at the bottom.

Here are mine:
Style- Simon Phoenix in Demolition man (Frozen then has his head kicked off) Gore- Marcus in Underworld: Evolution (knocked into helicopter blades) Overkill- Daxus in Ultraviolet (cut in half while on fire) Ownage- Brandt in Equilibrium (face sliced off in a single swipe) Inventiveness/Humour- Death by teacup in the Chronicles of Riddick Overall- V in V for Vendetta (13 machine gun clips emptied into him, he then kills everyone before they reload, strangles Creedy and gets himself a viking funeral before blowing up the houses of parliament)
Honourable mention: -Nerva in Ultraviolet (face to sword action)

For funny, I'd have to go with Lady in the Water. "Oh my god, this is like a scene from a horror movie!"

Takeshi Beat Kitano in Battle Royale is my favorite death scene: gets shot down, phone rings, he goes up and answers, talks, hangs up, goes to the couch, sits down, takes a cookie, eats it... THEN he dies!
Also, a movie that I don't expect many of you to have heard about, Ronja Rövardotter with the death of Skalleper is always a sure crack-up...
But good deaths are hard to summon from memory:(

that one didn't even make sense, but now I have a few more to add:
Class - Casino Royale's gun barrel sequence death Every member of the Deadly Viper Assassination Squad in the two Kill Bill movies: Originality -O-Ren - Scalped Almost Betrayal -Vernita - BANG!, then gets a knife through the chest Drawn-Out -Budd - Lectured about the Black Mamba as he died. Also - Irony. Anticlimax -Bill - 5 point palm exploding heart technique. A fitting end though.
