    Gus McCall in Lonesome Dove
    Tom Hanks in Saving Private Ryan
    James Cagney in White Heat
    James Coburn in The Magnificent Seven
    Can't remember the actor/character name but Mel Gibson's buddy going over the top and into the machine guns in Gallipoli.
     
  2. Kevin Spacey as Vincennes in L.A. Confidential should earn points in this category.

    Ricardo Maltoban in Naked Gun.
    Also love the scene in Things To Do In Denver When You're Dead when Critical Bill and Mr. Shoosh off each other at the same time.

    "Bonnie & Clyde", only I go with Gene Hackman crawling around on all fours and keeling over. Another day, another bullet to the head.

    Frank Grimes in "the simpsons"

    also, that scene early in "the departed" when Costello shoots those two people and says something like, "huh, she fell funny."

    All of the death scenes in that movie except for Z-Man and Casey's are great
