  (#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.

  (#5) Deep Blue Sea

  • Samuel L. Jackson, LL Cool J, Thomas Jane, Saffron Burrows, Stellan Skarsgård, Frank Welker, Michael Rapaport, Erinn Bartlett, Renny Harlin, Aida Turturro, Ronny Cox, Jacqueline McKenzie, Mary Kay Bergman, Valente Rodriguez, Eyal Podell, Brent Roam, Cristos, Dan Thiel, Daniel Rey, Tajsha Thomas, Sarah Kelly, Sabrina Geerinckx

  You ever have one of those days? You know, one of those days when you're giving an inspirational speech to your stranded crew about how man is more lethal than nature, and just as you reach your crescendo, a massive shark comes out of nowhere and devours you? This is like if in the middle of Neil Armstrong's "one small step for man" speech, he was stepped on by a giant man.

  Well, this is exactly what happened to Samuel L. Jackson's character in Deep Blue Sea. The massive shark part, not the human stepping on him part. You get the point.

  A summer's day. Four friends are frolicking together across New York City. Among them, there isn't a single care, or college credit, to be found. It's a classic afternoon hang; they run, they play, they splash each other with gasoline, they light up a cigarette, and they blow up an entire gas station. 

  Zoolander is a cartoonish film that abides by cartoonish logic. It's the only type of world in which four adult men would even think having a gasoline fight was a good idea in the first place. So when that cartoonish logic is suddenly switched off, and their actions have actual consequences that lead to their incredibly abrupt demise, it's one of the funniest moments in the entire film.

  (#11) John Wick: Chapter 3 - Parabellum

  • Keanu Reeves, Halle Berry, Ruby Rose, Ian McShane, Mark Dacascos, Common, Lance Reddick, Laurence Fishburne, Jason Mantzoukas, Anjelica Huston

  John Wick is often mistaken for an assassin or hit man, but he's really an artist. He's an artist, and his medium is death. His canvas? The entire world. His tools? Everything and anything within arm's reach. John proves this throughout the franchise, but no moment is it better exemplified than when he eliminates two men by causing a horse to kick with impeccable timing.  

  "Death by horse." That's what their obituaries would say. If they're lucky, it might say, "Death by a horse being controlled by the deadliest man the world has ever known." But, even then, most people would probably start laughing after "death by horse" and not get to the rest.

  In real life, someone wrongs you, and that's basically the end of it. You might stay up late into the night imagining what you should have done, but in the actual moment, the vast majority of people choose to do nothing. Luckily, it doesn't work that way in films. In a movie, someone can have their comeuppance immediately, and it's incredibly satisfying to watch. 

  In the back half of Django Unchained, Django convinces a group of slave traders to let him go, so he can lead them to even greater riches. The traders agree, and then the exact moment Django is handed a gun, he shoots all three of them. Quentin Tarantino, playing one of the traders, happens to be holding a sack full of dynamite, and thus his character bites the dust in a massive - and perfectly timed - explosion.

  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.
