  (#12) Vincent Vega In 'Pulp Fiction'

  You don't pull on Superman's cape, you don't spit into the wind, and you don't under any circumstances interrupt Bruce Willis while he's trying to enjoy a nice off-brand Pop-Tart. You especially don't do that if you have already alerted Bruce to your presence by leaving your silenced pistol on the table. This not only lets Bruce know you're there, but gives him said silenced pistol to then shoot you with. Honestly, it's sloppy work, and you never want to let your guard down around a wild Bruce.

  This scene was extra funny because Vincent Vega was the lead character, and suddenly he's just done for. That's it - he's gone. Honestly, a movie unceremoniously killing off a lead character is just never going to get old.

  (#13) American Psycho

  • Christian Bale, Willem Dafoe, Jared Leto, Josh Lucas, Chloë Sevigny, Samantha Mathis, Cara Seymour, Justin Theroux, Guinevere Turner. Reese Witherspoon

  Christian Bale delivers a hilarious and haunting performance as the titular American Psycho. No part of the movie captures this character's essence better than the slaying of Paul Allen. Allen, thinking he's been invited to Patrick Bateman's (Bale) house for dinner, is relaxing (drugged) on a covered chair in Bale's living room. Although he notices the newspaper on the ground (to clean up the mess), he isn't fully aware that anything strange is happening. And even without the homicidal intent, Bateman is acting strange.

  When you think of a killer, you probably think of someone angrily and violently going about their "work." Bale's performance is in stark contrast to that assumption, as he dances and explains the nuances of Huey Lewis and the News just seconds before splitting Allen open with his ax.

  Funny? To a degree. Disturbing? On a whole new level.

  "He'll be all right in a couple of minutes," is a line spoken by Frank Drebin (Leslie Nielsen) after accidentally shooting a man, and seconds before that same man falls off a building and is run over in succession by a bus, a steamroller, and an entire marching band. 

  A joke so good, in a movie so funny, that Family Guy basically developed its entire style of comedy from it. A joke isn't over until it's over, and if you think it's dragging, keep it going until it comes back around to being funny. The joke could have ended with the fall, and it still would have been funny. It could have ended with the bus and the steamroller and have been genius. With the addition of the marching band, it ascends into comedy heaven.

  There's no funnier or more well-deserved demise than that of a Nazi. And in The Blues Brothers, a whole lot of absurdity and slapstick is added to said demise. 

  The scene in question begins with two of the last three men to ever pull off a fedora (the other taking place in White Collar) heading way too fast down a broken bridge. At the last second, the Blues Brothers use their powers of coolness and jazz to make their car do an enormously high backflip, sending them behind and moving away from the in-pursuit Nazis. This leaves the bad guys on their own, launching off the bridge to their ultimate end. But do they just crash and burn? No - they're first shown to be so incredibly high in the air that they're on par with the Sears Tower, before falling very slowly toward the ground below.

  The filmmakers must have known that watching them fall from a regular-sized bridge wouldn't have been enough time to savor the moment.

  (#15) The Ballad of Buster Scruggs

  • Tim Blake Nelson, Liam Neeson, James Franco, Zoe Kazan, Tyne Daly, Tom Waits

  Challenging someone to a duel in the Wild West is a terrifying proposition. No matter what happens, one of you isn't walking away alive. With that said, Buster Scruggs couldn't have been less scared as he follows Joe's brother out into the town square for their duel.

  Buster begins their showdown by blasting off all five fingers on Joe's brother's right hand. You'd think doing something like that would just about end the fight - but no, Joe's brother is a fighter, and he struggles to grab his side arm with his left hand (the one that still has fingers).  

  This leaves Buster in a bit of a predicament, as he only has one bullet left. You can tell Buster is scared by the method in which he turns around, pulls out a mirror, and fires his remaining bullet backward into the chest of Joe's brother.

  (#10) Big Trouble in Little China

  • Kurt Russell, Kim Cattrall, John Carpenter, James Hong, Kate Burton, Gerald Okamura, Al Leong, Dan Inosanto, James Lew, Jerry Hardin, George Cheung, Victor Wong, Noel Toy, Chao-Li Chi, Jeff Imada, James Pax, Donald Li, Bill M.

  Here's the scenario: Your friends are lying lifeless around you, and your enemies outnumber you 4-to-1. What do you do? 

  An amateur fighter might choose to push through and keep fighting, leading to their inevitable demise in hand-to-hand combat. 

  Not a professional fighter, though. A true champion, like Thunder in Big Trouble in Little China, knows that sometimes the only honorable way out is to expand your body past its limits so that your entire being explodes, killing you and causing the roof to cave in on your enemies. 

  Look at the above picture long and hard - that's what a true hero looks like.
