Watching Con-Air again this evening for the 'n'th time, I was struck by the sheer preposterousness of the death of Cyrus The Virus:
Thrown off the ladder of a speeding firetruck, through a glass bridge thing, and lands head-first at the base of a conveniently-placed pile driver.
Preposterous. Yes, willing suspension of disbelief and all that, but really??
Anything better out there?
Jaws (The film)?
But agreed, yours is pretty good.

There's the melodramatic staking in the Buffy tVS movie? Spent about five minutes chewing the scenery before expiring.

not so much of a "bump off" but still...
I don't think I can beat Con Air but True Lies must be up there. Fighting on a Harrier Jet, falls onto the missile and gets fired through a building into a baddie helicopter.
OK, it's TV but I did love this one
Though of another in the "great baddie, stupid death" series:
Boba Fett / Great Pit of Carkoon.
End of thread.
In a similar vein, Jabba the Hut, biggest feared gangster in the galaxy slowly strangled to death by a lady in a bikini.
Simple but effective
Slightly drawn out and appalling you tube of a telly screen
"See you at the party Richter"
Have we done the Mission: Impossible helicopter attached tot he train by a wire but still flying in the Channel Tunnel death scene yet? Truly unbelievable.
As for the Blade Runner death, that's just brilliant and just another reason why it's an amazing film.
