  The movie with the two trucks tearing a woman in half is the Hitcher with Rutger Hauer. At least I believe it is.

  Peter Weller in Robocop. He dies near the beginning and is reborn into awesomeness. The death of the guy near the end when he gets the spike to the throat is awesome too.

  End of Scarface is a pretty awesome movie death...  Going out shooting while all coked up is a pretty good way to go (so I hear).

  How about any number of funny ones from Team America World Police?  I the opening sequesnce when they've just blown up Paris to "save" it from a terrorist and the main dude is about to die and he's all like: "So cold.  You must carry one."  That cracks me up.

  Pee-Wee Herman's character in the "Buffy the Vampire Slayer" when it took the entire closing credits for him to die... hilarious!

  My favorite is the scene with Dennis Hopper and Christopher Walken in True Romance where Hopper goes into his dialogue about the heritage of Sicilians.

  This is probably wrong but I though that it was Jay Mohr doing an impression of Christopher Walken on that Simpsons episode.  Can anyone clear this up for me?

  How about when the guy gets his head accidentally blown off in the back of the car in Pulp Fiction?

  I saw this the other day.  It is not gorey.  It is not spectacular.  It is the effect of it.  In the Princess Bride when Inigo Montoya has Count Rugen at his mercy.  The Count offers him any thing he wants and just when you think Inigo will accept his offer he stabs the Count in the gut and states "I want my father back you son of a bitch".

  This is probably too late, but you can pretty much pick any death from Final Destination 2.

  The scene where the airbag pops and impales the chick on the pipes stuck in her car, drops her cigarette and causes an explosion that sends a wire fence to slice up the slacker guy. Epic.
