@@flukciouse Incorrect. He did in fact try to kill frodo and steal the ring. It's only because of frodo's own action that boromir failed. A traitor later redeeming themselves doesn't mean they didn't betray others in the first place.

Kron from Disney’s Dinosaur. After trying to kill Aladar in a one-on-one fight and being abandoned by the Herd, a Carnotaurus attacks as the former herd leader whom tries to prove Aladar wrong by climbing up the dangerous wall of rocks, only to see that he was right about the sheer drop, supposedly redeeming himself. Moments before his death, he battles the Carnotaurus and is thrown at a wall by the theropod and succumbs to his injuries even before Aladar and Neera ran over to save him. If he had lived, he would’ve apologized to Aladar and told him he was telling the truth.

I was born in 82 and I never fully appreciated Blade Runner until I saw it in HD in 2015. I thought it was completely overblown (by my brother)until I watched it in HD as an adult. That is one the most visually stunning movies ever created.Then it dawned on me that this was released in 82!!!! HD really changed my movie viewing experience.

If you look on the TV Tropes website, there's a section called "Easily Forgiven". So, theoretically if they all survived whatever killed them, this would happened... Anakin, Ben, Loki, Wanda, Snape, Roy Batty, and Doc Ock: We're sorry we commited so many war crimes, probably broke your legs, killed a bunch of people you love, and became the literal banes of your existence. Every good guy who hated them: It's all good. You guys had sad backstories. Just something to think about...

It's not too late.

@dealingwiththistube 22 дня назад

Great list, BUT I find it a little far-pushing considering some of them villains, especilly Boromir. He wasn’t a villain; it was the one ring of Sauron that possessed him, making him obsessed with the ring wanting to claim it at any cost. After Frodo puts on the ring to escape Boromir’s attempt, Boromir realizes what had happened then starts breaking down.

@daphneloose5880 21 день назад

Scarlett Witch from Doctor Strange 2 should have been on this list. she was pretty much the bad girl in the whole movie then sacrificed herself to save her children in an alternate dimension. she was good after all. the deaths of Boromir and Darth Vader always gets to me no matter how many times I have see Lord of the Rings and Star Wars.

I liked Boromir from the very start of the LOTR series. And by that, I mean the books that I read back in the late 60s or early 70s. I was heartbroken when he attacked Frodo and attempted to take the Ring, but he was influenced by the Ring itself, and he broke free. I cheered when he did that. He is a lifelong warrior, and it is the hope of every warrior, that if he must die, that it be a death with meaning. Boromir's death had meaning.
