Howie
number nine Batman vs Superman dawn of
Justice bring it in here despite the
film’s title the climax here actually
sees Batman and Superman teaming up and
with the help of Wonder Woman they take
on Lex Luthor’s malevolent creation
thing this creature seems to feed on
energy this thing it’s no another world
my room in his quest to bring down the
most powerful being on earth

sadly staying true to the comic books
doomsday and the Man of Steel
simultaneously kill each other in what
looks like a really painful exchange
number eight The Departed grab your
weapons when you go into a Martin
Scorsese gangster flick expecting two
things lots of violence and lots of
death but little did we know that this
time he’d be killing Leonardo DiCaprio
who recently ha yeah go ahead shoot a
cop
in fact watch what happened to catch a
mole in the Boston Police Department
Leo’s Billy Costigan is undercover in
Frank Costello’s mob to live a life of
crime we see many horrific things
throughout the film like beachfront
execution people going splat and random
severed hands but nothing matches the
split second in which Costigan is shot
in the head by one of Costello’s moles
it’s the suddenness of the murder that
landed on this list we barely have time
to process it because it happens in the
blink of an eye Costello was themselves
to the FBI if you and me now you
understand we got to take care of each
other you understand number seven Star
Wars Episode 7 the force awakens so it
means nothing to me it was pretty
obvious that kylo Ren was going to be
related to at least one beloved original
trilogy character that Star Wars mo what
wasn’t obvious is that he killed his own
father
han Solo I’ve been waiting for this
purge for a long time after being sent
by his parents han and Leia to learn the
ways of the force from his uncle Luke
Skywalker Ben solo is drawn to the dark
side just like his grandfather Darth

foolish like a father so I destroyed him
during an emotional father-son reunion
it looks as if Ben or kylo has seen the
error of his ways will we ever learn

directors have the guts to kill off Tom
Hanks but Steven Spielberg did it in
this epic war flick Hanks plays Captain

tragic irony Miller is shot by the same
Nazi soldier to whom he previously shown
mercy but even if he faces certain death
Miller will do whatever it takes to
accomplish his mission and offer some
advice to young Private Ryan

treason and eventually executed for his
so-called crimes bring my wallet alive
