Before the world cried for Iron Man We cried for Wolverine

"I love you 3000." Such a heartbreaking line, though as sad as Tony's death was, I wish that they'd had a funeral for Natasha as well.

Did anyone else shed a tear when Youndu said " He mightta been your father boi, but he wasn't your daddy" ?

"I am Iron Man" would be forever the most iconic MCU moment

Gwen Stacy - The Amazing Spider-Man 2. Watching Spider-Man's web turn into a hand still makes me sad knowing he couldn't save her.

Harry Osborne Spider-Man 3 - Despite everything that happened between him & Peter, he still gave up his life to save his friends.

Where's Black Widow? That fight between black widow and Hawkeye was absolutely heart breaking.

While seeing Gwen Stacy die was tragic, the redemption arc in Spiderman No Way Home got to me much more. When he got to MJ he was so relieved Peter #3 nearly broke down and nearly got me to. You know he relived that failure a million times over in his mind and when he got the chance to save Peter #1's love, he corrected his mistake mid dive.

Professor X - X3 watching Jean Grey turn him to dust was heartbreaking. especially when his last words were "Don't let it control you" .

Losing the guy who started the MCU will always be tragic.

Harry Osborn in Spider-Man 3. "I should never have hurt you. Said those things." "None of that matters, Peter. You're my friend." "Best friend." :')

Uncle Ben’s death. While there have been plenty of memes of Tobey Maguire’s crying face, there's no denying that Peter lost the man who raised him for much of his life, and with the iconic line “with great power comes great responsibility”.

Gwen Stacy’s death was unexpected since Spidey always saves the girl.

15:29 what makes this scene from the Spider-Man movie more intriguing than in the comics is that in the comics they just kill Ben Parker off screen. In this movie, no. They showed the body. 💀 that. Was hardcore.

0:01 And it all started because Spider-Man refused to stop the robber out of spite for not being given the prize money.

Just came to much sure Logan’s death was higher than anything MCU related and to my surprise it was I just didn’t expect it to be number 1.

These scenes were so tragic it made my heart shatter into pieces 💔,the ones that REALLY hit me were: 🌟The Vanish 💐 🌟Yondu Udonta 💐 🌟Gamora 😭 🌟Lalya 😭 🌟Logan 💐 🌟Gene Grey 😭 🌟Tony 💐 🌟Loki 😭 🌟Aunt May 💐 🌟Uncle Ben 💐 🌟Uncle Aaron 💐 🌟Doc Ock 😭 🌟Thomas and Martha Wayne (Bruce's folks) 💐 🌟Rachel Dawes 😭

Honourable mentions: 1) Silas Stone from Justice League 2) Captain Stacy from The Amazing Spider-Man 3) Charles Xavier from Logan 4) Superman’s biological parents in both Superman of 1978 & Man of Steel

Rick flags death from the Suicide Squad is missing here😢

How did Black Widow not make this list???

The Deaths of Gwen Stacy, Tony Stark/Iron Man and Aunt May Parker (MCU) are some of Marvel’s most devastating moments, especially for Spider-Man fans.

They did Andrew so dirty in the sequel. Gwen’s death was upsetting for me too. As if all three Peters haven’t suffered enough.

I clicked on this video to see if Loki was on the list, and he was number 20, I’m glad his death was on here, but it deserved to be a little higher, at least in the top 10, considering he was the last family Thor had left, they had just made up and were becoming brothers again, and then Thanos kills him. And yeah we did get a Loki variant in Loki, and I do love Loki season 2, and how powerful Marvel made him by the end of the series, but I'd rather have the mischievous Loki from the sacred timeline back.

Where’s Vision and Black Widow?

Only one death can top Black Widow’s: Gwen Stacy. After doing his best to carry on, Andrew Garfield’s Peter/Spider-Man let his anger and bitterness overtake him. He had no chance of rescuing Gwen, but he finally compensated for it by saving MJ (Michelle Jones, not Mary Jane).

That scene is just heartbreaking. The way how Gwen falls is a great scene but when she dies and Peter’s cries in his performance makes it pull on your heartstrings

(6:32) Miles’ uncle dying in such a way is sure no different from Peter Parker’s Uncle Ben. I suppose it’s poetic justice. (11:02) Say. Heath Ledger sure had an affinity with the Gyllenhaals. Jake was first, then Maggie.

And I.. am.. IRONMAN! 😭 shouldve been on 1 imo

Gwen Stacy's death in The Amazing Spider-Man 2 was a very sad and heartbreaking moment. And she was about to have a normal happy life with Peter after saving New York from Electro. Until Green Goblin appeared and made one of the worst things he has done to Spidey. Killing Gwen Stacy after being saved by Spider-Man.

Tony Stark , Wolverine and Professor X hurt my ❤️

If Iron Man's death in Endgame isn't #1, I'm disowning Watchmojo forever.

Aunt May needs to be higher, shes basically been his mother throughout his life

If Rocket had died in Guardians of the Galaxy 3 I would’ve been so upset I swear

R.I.P Gwen Stacy 😢🕊

I can’t believe you had the audacity to disrespect Black Widow so fiercely. WTF

Having aunt may this low is a crime

Wait someone snapped in China after iron man died and went to the hospital?

Thank you for the update, WatchMojo..!! Our generation was so fortunate to have a great artist and storyteller like Stan Lee. May he rest in peace..

Uhhh, i don't think Jean Grey's sacrifice was that sad. I mean, you have Mr. Frozone on the team and yet you stand in the water alone so you can die

Uhh Black Widow???

great list

Wow, so no Lois in the original Superman? That scene was heartbreaking when Superman screams before he reverses time or Flash's mom dying or Rorschach's death? They should have just made two separate lists imo top 10 MCU and DC deaths in movies...

OhMyGod, really? Someone got so shaken by Iron Man’s death that the person ended up in the hospital? Damn

Natasha left the chat. She’s top 3 for me at least. It’s a crime that she’s not even on the list.

Iron Man sacrifice defeat Thanos 😢

Superman's death in bvs was very sad. I remember that moment making me really love Superman again

Uncle Ben's death will always hit my heart strings more. Not bc it's my very first Marvel movie when I was 7 but knowing the last words they exchanged were their argument in ben's car (not including Ben said 2x Peter and Peter said I am here uncle Ben) I understand why he blamed himself thinking he got Ben this way bc of his harsh words threw it in his face

Tony Stark's sacrifice death will forever be a truly sadden event that will haunt me and MCU fans for a long time. R.I.P. Tony Stark.

What about the Penguin's death from Batman Returns?

Tony Stark's death was the most heartbreaking moment in Avengers Endgame

Gwens death still makes me sad 😞

for non-MCU and DCEU/DCU films, and if you consider Transformers superheroes, these deaths may be considered... the death of these characters: - Jazz - Ironhide - Ratchet - Que - Optimus Prime - Bumblebee - Jetfire - Canopy

Rachel Dawes, Ben Parker, Aaron Davis, Steve Trevor, Thomas and Martha Wayne, Jean Grey and of course Wolverine; are the deaths that make me cry.

Iron man's death definitely hit me the hardest but my number 2 is Harry Osborn Spider man 3 and number 3 is Gwen

This will prolly get flamed, but remember Jazz in the first Transformers movie. Only a surface bond to humans over a few days, but realized that at that moment they were his best chance of keeping the Allspark from Megatron. He took on the strongest of his enemies so they could escape...and was literally rip to shreds.

I’m still upset more about Wolverine’s death in ultimatum # 5 (2009 )

Gwen Stacy’s death was the saddest

At least the deaths in superhero movies stick compared to the comics.

Yondu’s death is so sad. Should be a lot higher

Uncle Ben hit me so hard I was crying and im not the person who gets so invested in movies I cry

We need a list of the top villains last words

Okay how can you not have Black Widow anywhere on this list?

Top 10 Wonder Woman/Flash/Shazam/Blue Beetle Villains! Top 10 Greatest Batman Antiheroes Ever! Top 20 Greatest DC Super Villain Teams!

The punisher's family in the 2004 movie

Honestly I would list my favorite MCU saddest moments especially Hugh Jackman's Wolverine death as well, pretty surprised that didn't take last too long for DEADPOOL meet an X-MEN.

Logan and Yondu were dramatic, but somehow Spider Man was the biggest blow for me. His fear to die when he realized what was happening to him hit me hard.

Harry Osborn - Spider-Man (2007), Damon Macready/Big Daddy - Kick-Ass (2010), Mr. Lizewski - Kick-Ass 2 (2013), T'Challa (offscreen) and Queen Ramonda - Black Panther: Wakanda Forever (2022), Silas Stone - Zack Snyder's Justice League (2021), Tadashi Hamada - Big Hero 6 (2014), Wanda Maximoff/Scarlet Witch - Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness (2022), Captain George Stacy - The Amazing Spider-Man (2012), Jane Foster - Thor: Love and Thunder (2022), Elektra Nachios - Daredevil (2003), Vanessa - Deadpool 2 (2018) and Natasha Romanoff/Black Widow - Avengers: Endgame (2019)

Gomra should be top 5

Actually, Cap didn't know that Bucky killed Tony's parents. He just knew that Hydra killed them.

Great my boy is the first one :( 😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢

Walking out of the Endgame movie with puffy eyes and nose; I am Iron Man 😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢

That fact that Uncle Ben wasn’t at the top is insane.

Both Tony Stark and Logan deaths are the saddest in the world.

"I'M NOT CRYING! YOU'RE CRYING!!! To the whole list...

Honorable mentions Professor X in Logan, Harry Osborn in Spider-Man 3, Black Widow in Avengers: Endgame, Vanessa in Deadpool 2, & Captain Stacey in The Amazing Spider-Man

“Without sacrifice, there can be no victory” -Witwicky motto

Remember folks: not everyone can make it out alive.

Any death in Spider-Man made me sad

Can’t lie, I kinda knew Gwen would die leading into the movie but it still hit hard considering how good their chemistry was in those movies

I first saw Iron Man when I was seven and watched Endgame when I turned eighteen , and I have never cried harder watching a movie when Tony gave his life to save the universe. We love toy 3,000 Tony

Not a death scene but Peter Parker's father coming back in thet deleted scene from TASM 2

All these deaths still hurts even to this day

"You can rest now." Gets me every time.

Hey 👋 don’t forget The death ☠️ of The Penguins parents from Batman Returns (1992 Movie)!

Gwen's death scene is the saddest for me Andrew's acting in that scene was amazing

errrm I'm sorry but WTF.... WTAF?? No Natasha, side charaters make the list but Natasha is left off the list completely... -___-

For me the most heart breaking scene was at the end of no way home. Peter is all alone now

I'll keep saying it Gwen Stacy absolutely didn't have to die😢

This is probably the first list that didn’t put Ironman first. I get why they went with wolverine, but we all knew it was coming.

They were all sad but Iron-Man was the saddest 😢

I know it doesn't count, because he didn't actually die, but that little bit where you thought Peter was dead in Guardians 3.... Damn.

I love you 3000. He made it too sad. And I fainted watching the movie

What about Uncle Ben from The Amazing Spider Man? He got shot while looking for Peter and stopping a robbery. Even Flash felt bad for Peter. And background music can make you burst into tears. What about Captain Stacy? He sacrificed himself while fighting the Lizard. And Peter's parents died in a plane crash.

I agree with the end

No One Comes Close To Wolverine's Death In Logan.

The loss of Tony Stark was saddening to me. Why? It wasn’t just because he sacrificed himself to end Thanos with his own snap and saving many lives. But it also marked the end of RDJ’s run as Iron Man as well. Peace.

Crazy how most of these clips come from Marvel
