R.I.P.


I was watching The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King on TV a few nights ago and it inspired me to post this pic.  I lifted it somewhere off the internets awhile back but I can't remember where.

Honestly, Sean Bean always seems to get the short end of the stick.  Off the top of my head I can recall him being offed in at least 4 different movies or tv shows which is just sad because more often than not he's the coolest character on screen.

Sword? Fur? Brooding expression?

Update: WOW there is an entire video dedicated to the many on screen deaths of Sean Bean.  CLICK HERE.  I won't embed it in case some of you are afraid of spoilers.  BUT there is one hilarious death that involves cows ... that's all I'm saying.  Unfrickenbelivable!!!

  1. Too funny. I never really thought about it other than the fact that Boromir was a great character and I was sad when he died. Seriously that death was brutal. And he also did die in Equilibrium (great movie) come to think of it. I wonder if he almost prefers to play smaller side roles where the guy dies. Either way he is an amazing actor.

  2. I almost had a heart attack when I saw RIP. Then of course I saw the trail of dates. Hilarious! Here is an idea, let's give him a role where he doesn't die. Most people find his character more interesting anyways.

  3. @Darcy: Actually, I'm beginning to wonder if they cast Sean Bean and then decide that perhaps they should rewrite the script so that he dies since he's so good at it

    @Fal: I also almost had a heart attack when I saw it. In fact, even after seeing the trail of dates, I checked wikipedia just to make sure he hadn't actually bit the dust. Btw, when will you begin blogging my dear?
