Spoilers for "The Hitcher"! (If you haven't seen the original and you don't want to know what happens in the movie don't read my blog.) Okay here goes, and yes I am a Sean Bean fan and I know way more than I should about him. Anyway!

Sean Bean

How many more roles is Sean Bean going to take where he ends up dying. Almost every movie I've seen him in he has died! It made me start to wonder if he is the actor with the most "death scenes" ever.
So, I contacted IMDB and posed the question to them. (I'll post again when I get an answer.) If they don't know, I don't know where you would look for the answer to that. I did do some searches and came up with a few sites that were interesting, but not necessarily what I was looking for in an answer. Also, he seems to always be the bad guy, except for a few that I know off the top of my head: Sharpe series, North Country, The Dark, Silent Hill, Flight Plan and Troy.
Death scenes in reverse chronological order:
• The Hitcher — gets shot in the back, chest, face... dies
• The Island — gets hung, stabbed in the neck ( I think)... dies
• The Lord of the Rings, Fellowship of the Ring — shot with arrows... dies.
• Equilibrium — get shot in the face... dies
• Don't Say A Word — gets buried alive... assumed that he dies.
• Essex Boys — okay so this one is not so well known but who cares... I forget how he dies but I'm pretty sure he kicks the bucket or gets the bucket kicked in his face.
• Golden Eye — he dies twice!!! once at the beginning of the movie and once for real at the end.
• Scarlett — He plays Lord Fenton and gets stabbed and dies.
• Patriot Games — Is impaled on a boat anchor and dies.
• War Requiem — small part, but he dies. He's stabbed I think... dies.
• Caravaggio — I know he dies, but I forget how... dies.
These are only the movies that I can remember! I'm sure he's died in more and will continue dying on film.

Hola Amigos! I'm Sandra. I like to believe that people are 70 percent good and 30 percent dumb. I'm stickin to that story. Reading this blog might make you want to be good, but probably just dumb. |

|  | We're not that bright, even though in our own little world, we're geniuses. We like 80s hair bands and one-hit wonders, but among us we have respectable tastes, too. Metallica, Iron Maiden, U2. Pursuit of all things trivial is a lifestyle, not just a game. We like some sports, love other sports, and can find something to say about anything. We watch TV and movies and we've read a book or two, even a few classics (Yes, Classic Comics count!)
We call it insight, you call it what you will. | |

I am a recent college graduate of Minnesota State University Moorhead. After recieving my B.A. in English and Mass Communications this past August I moved down to Colorado.
I enjoy long walks on the beach, candlelight dinners, and heavy metal. My hobbies include reading and writing, music, movies, and getting drunk. Some of my favorite contemporary authors include Bret Easton Ellis, Chuck Palahniuk, and Kurt Vonnegut. My top movies are anything directed by Kubrick. I enjoy listening to anything that rocks.
Right now I am just trying to get to know Colorado and FoCo better. Mostly in order to find the best drink specials on each day that ends in Y. So if you know where I can get a cheap drunk on, let me know!
