I'll try to make the instances clear, since most people aren't going to remember character names in most cases.
I prefer them to be judged on theatrics, on memorability, on the iconic nature of the kill or death, and on originality.

By the way, did you mean 'Mr. Hinx' in your last answer in your Poll above for " SPECTRE" ? |

Sandor, the helpful chap assassin killed by Bond in Spy Who Loved Me (What a helpful chap!)
Aziz, killed by Jaws in Spy Who Loved Me (at pyramids)
Tilly (painted gold and killed by Odd Job in Goldfinger)
Odd Job, killed by Bond
Blofeld killed by Bond in For Your Eyes Only
Stromberg killed by Bond
Gonzalez, killer of Melina's parents, arrow by Melina in Eyes Only
Coumputer nerd villain killed at end of Goldeneye
(Goldeneye deaths are great, in general)

Missed Dr. Kananga/Mr. Big's inflated death.
Out of the ones listed, Wint and Kidd's death in Diamonds is always memorable. The flaming skewers and the bomb/thrown over board are a good way to close out a film.

How could you miss the obvious winner... Kananga (the excellent Yaphet Kotto), known on the streets as Mr. Big, who literally gets BLOWN up!? LOL!

Strange that when I made my list and annotated from that list, this is the only one I accidentally passed over. I wrote the list in long hand, and must have done an edit when it came to this point, or something, but sorry I missed it. |

Even Yaphet Koto himself made fun of it on some late night show (was it Conan?). Cheers!
