10 Amazing Movies Where the Hero Dies (CBR.com)

"It is a surprising and sad twist when a movie kills off a beloved character and hero. Often, they're built up as a savior, not necessarily perfect, but doing their best, and that's what makes their death even worse – they were trying to help others and lost their lives for it. Killing a main character has become a regular trope in big-hit movies and TV shows because of the shock factor. Studios like Marvel have somewhat lost their sense of surprise over the years, as superhero films in particular can sometimes fall into a trap of following a predictable plot. The deaths they bring about have to make sense and hold meaning to have the biggest effect on audiences." - cbr.com
