People in Movies Getting Their Comeuppance
« on: March 30, 2012, 05:50:03 PM »
I am watching The Green Mile and it's the best thing when Percy gets what he deserves.

Also, the skinheads in " The 51st State " - I love when wankers get their comeuppance.

Are there any other good examples in movies ?

Spoilers:

The main character murders a bunch of people, takes drugs to cheat his way through life and not only does he get away with it but he ends up becoming an insanely rich investment banker or something

Oh, man. I nearly get my rocks off whenever I see the fucking piece of scum get what's coming to him throughout the whole movie in Mel Gibson's Edge of Darkness. God, it's so satisfying and metul. The man who is behind everything and all the corruption and death and radioactive god-knows-what...BAM RIGHT IN YOUR FACE! IN. YOUR. FACE! Then he stumbles to get his medicine to counteract the poison only to get shot. It's so...it's so beautiful. One of my favorite scenes in any movie. Gibson don't give a FUCK. RADIOACTIVE MILK. The best weapon.

The dude in "Sleeping with the Enemy".  I saw it in the theater when it first came out.  When he finally got it, the whole theater cheered.  It was awesome.

Better portrayed in the novel than in any movie version, but no one in the history of fiction spent the time, energy, and expense to completely and utterly destroy the lives of those who screwed with him as Edmund Dantes.

Good call on the Superman II guy, by the way.

OBVIOUS SPOILERS AHEAD FOR SOME MOVIES.

Boggs getting the shit beaten out of him in The Shawshank Redemption.
Brent in the Friday The 13th remake.
Forrest Gump beats the shit out of the guy who slaps Jenny in Forrest Gump.
Mason kills Ray in Dead Like Me. Not a movie, but, whatever.

When Shiki goes into Akasha mode and just lays into that motherfucker Araya, knocks him off the building, stabs him in the chest, and rides him to the ground. Fuck yeah.

What?

Burke in 'Aliens' when he locks the group out of thier escape route through the medical department....only to have a pass door slide open revealing a rather large and slippery Alien waiting to kill/eat/ him. The emergency 'red' lighting added an extra 'your going to hell' typr feel as well.
