I just realized something ... Gary Oldman bites it in pretty much every major role he's been associated with. Even when he's not the bad guy.

Lots of spoilers below ... you are warned.

- Sid Vicious in Sid & Nancy - Drug overdose
- Drexyl in True Romance - Bullet to the crotch
- Beethoven in Immortal Beloved - I don't remember if they said how, but the public funeral was the one memorable scene in this movie.
- Zorg in The Fifth Element - Blown up in a giant flying cruise ship orbiting some far-flung planet. Damn French directors ...
- Dracula - after being undead for 500 years, finally snuffs it at the hand of Wynona Ryder.
- Lee Harvey Oswald, shot by Jack Ruby.
- Stansfield in Leon/The Professional - I don't even remember the details.
- Mason Verger in Hannibal - Fed to carnivorous swine that he engineered to eat Hannibal Lecter alive.
- Ivan Korshunov in Air Force One - Thrown out (punched out) of a plane by Harrison Ford in midair

And now, when we get to Order of the Phoenix, he'll cross that great void from which no soul returns.

At least we expect Commissioner Gordon to survive for the long haul.
