Acting is a demanding profession. While it might look like it&#39;s all fun and games to pretend to be someone else on screen, many <a href="/list/practical-stunts-action-movies/jason-robbins" target="_blank">actors go to extremes for roles</a>, doing disgusting&nbsp;things most of us wouldn&#39;t even consider.

This isn&#39;t always the actor&#39;s idea. In order to get the perfect shot, filmmakers may&nbsp;coerce their performers into doing things they&#39;d rather not do.&nbsp;Sometimes, however, the actors are the ones pushing for authenticity in the movie. From eating live bugs to letting critters crawl on their face, to wading through garbage and worse, these are just a few examples of gross things actors did for movies.&nbsp;&nbsp;

Whatever gross things actors do, their commitment to their craft certainly leads to memorable scenes. Take a look below at gross things actors actually did for movies, and vote up the decisions that were truly disgusting.&nbsp;

Entertainment

Horror films are designed to be as scary as possible. While special effects are often enough to make audiences squirm in their seats, some filmmakers filmed their movies with real skeletons and dead bodies to lend some authenticity to the horrifying images. You might not be able to pick out these moments onscreen, but you&#39;ll never look at these scenes the same after finding out the movies were made with real dead bodies.&nbsp;

If a movie is filmed with real skeletons, the filmmakers rarely advertise it openly. Superstitions such as the &quot;Poltergeist&nbsp;curse&quot; dictate that using real human remains is not only disrespectful, but&nbsp;also potentially dangerous. <a href="/list/horror-films-with-dangerous-sets/david-sharp" target="_blank">Horror movie sets are scary</a> enough without forcing actors and behind-the-scenes workers to come into contact with real human remains. Shouldn&#39;t we allow the dead to rest in peace?&nbsp;

Nevertheless, the use of read dead bodies in movies is a reality. Take a look below at a few films that opted for real skeletons and vote up the scenes that benefited from the use of real human remains.&nbsp;

There&#39;s a lot that can go wrong on a movie set. Actors are professionals, but they&#39;re still human beings. At times, real actor reactions, such as fear, pain, or nervousness, work their way into a scene. Although these performers work hard to entrench themselves in their characters, their real personalities&nbsp;occasionally manage&nbsp;to shine through.&nbsp;

Even though these actors are technically breaking character, that&#39;s not always a bad thing. In fact, certain&nbsp;movie scenes are specifically staged to <a href="https://www.ranker.com/list/good-will-hunting-behind-the-scenes/melissa-sartore" target="_blank">elicit the most natural response</a>. Fully embracing a role&nbsp;has its advantages, but sometimes only the real actor&nbsp;reactions provide the genuine impact a scene needs.

Take a look below at memorable movie moments where actors weren&#39;t acting, and vote up the times when an <a href="/list/movies-where-actors-were-surprised/anncasano" target="_blank">honest reaction</a> made the movie that much better.

Guardians of the Galaxy

Guardians of the Galaxy Franchise

Even though we love our favorite <a class="edS-cl" href="https://www.ranker.com/crowdranked-list/every-character-from-the-marvel-cinematic-universe-ranked?ref=internalCrossLinking_keyword">Marvel Cinematic Universe characters</a>, some choices&nbsp;these heroes&nbsp;make are <a href="/list/mcu-worst-decisions/jessica-bedewi" target="_blank">pretty darn dumb</a>. Much like <a href="/list/iron-man-worst-decisions/jessica-bedewi" target="_blank">Iron Man</a> himself, our fun-loving, at times morally ambiguous Guardians of the Galaxy aren&#39;t above making a few bad decisions. Well, more than a few. In fact, try as they might to do the right thing, the Guardians seem to make a lot of ill-informed decisions.&nbsp;

As a group, plans are definitely not the Guardians&#39; strong suit. They tend to jump into action before they think things through, which sometimes gets them into sticky situations. Plus, our dear Guardians have an undeniable&nbsp;selfish streak. While they manage to do the right thing in the end, they usually have to square off against their lesser desires to line their pockets with cash.&nbsp;

Are the Guardians true heroes or are they just a crew of idiots?&nbsp;Decide for yourself by taking a look at the dumbest decisions the Guardians of the Galaxy ever made in the MCU.&nbsp;

The Dumbest Decisions The Guardians Of The Galaxy Ever Made In The MCU

Marvel Comics

Which MCU character are you? If you&#39;re a fan of the Marvel Cinematic Universe, you may have wondered which superhero (or villain) personality best aligns with your own. Oddly enough, your high school clique may hold the answers.&nbsp;Would you be the leader of the pack like Tony Stark or a <a href="https://www.ranker.com/list/best-mean-girl-characters-in-movies-and-tv/anncasano" target="_blank">low-key mean girl</a> like Loki?

MCU&#39;s assortment of disparate characters aligns surprisingly well with the groups and subcultures that dominated your high school campus. Sure, Marvel&#39;s heroes&nbsp;have to save the world rather than prepare for an upcoming test, but each of their complex personalities can easily be boiled down into the cliquey categories you so hated - yet couldn&#39;t avoid - in your teen years. Really, could Thor be anyone but an athletic, loud, and self-centered jock? Certainly not.

If you want to settle the question of where you might fit into the MCU once and for all, take a look below to find out which MCU character you are based on your high school clique.

Lists of great, unforgettable, and weird scenes in film and TV - and how they got made.

And... Scene

Although most movies rely on fake blood for gory special&nbsp;effects, there are cases in which&nbsp;unfortunate <a href="https://www.ranker.com/list/real-actor-pain-in-movies/lee-emjay" target="_blank">actors injured while filming</a> have contributed their own blood to the final cut.

These bloody injuries are often the result of a simple accident on set. Instead of interrupting filming and bandaging their injured bodies, however, these actors choose to stay in character and see the scene through to completion. Their artistic decision lends some authenticity&nbsp;to the film&#39;s violence, although they do have to sacrifice their own well-being along the way.

Thankfully, most of these injuries aren&#39;t incredibly serious. Plus, the actor&#39;s blood is now immortalized on film forever. That&#39;s kind of cool (read: gross), right?&nbsp;

Take a look below at the movie scenes where actors really bleed and vote up the onscreen injuries that would force you to call &quot;Cut!&quot; if you were in their position.&nbsp;

Action Heroes & Villains

Action

Manly action heroes are a staple of most action films. They&#39;re confident, smooth with the ladies, unafraid of violence, and (according to this list) often named John. Most aptly described by the phrase, &quot;Men want to be them and women want to be with them,&quot; these masculine action heroes carry entire plots on the rippling muscles of their shoulders.&nbsp;

Often blessed with <a href="https://www.ranker.com/list/butchest-action-star-character-names/jacob-shelton" target="_blank">over-the-top names</a> and plot armor so thick they can survive a torrent of bullets, our favorite macho action heroes boast the type of superhuman masculinity us regular folks can only dream of. Take a look below at the manliest action movie heroes of all time and vote up the most undeniably manlike personalities.

This Is My Fight Song

When film characters engage in a knock-down, drag-out fight, the audience usually assumes that the actors are faking the physical blows. Who would be wild&nbsp;enough to throw real punches in movies?&nbsp;

Unfortunately, some actors prefer authenticity to sanity. Instead of faking a blow for the camera, certain stars decide to really take a hit and lend some blood-soaked legitimacy to their acting. For example, Sylvester Stallone was known for taking real hits during his fight scenes in the&nbsp;Rocky&nbsp;film series. His tactic led to some of the <a href="https://www.ranker.com/list/best-movie-punches/jacob-shelton" target="_blank">best movie punches in film history</a>, but it also resulted in some serious injuries&nbsp;for Stallone.&nbsp;

Other actors, however, aren&#39;t as committed to their craft. Instead, they&#39;re caught in the crosshairs of a high energy moment. While <a href="https://www.ranker.com/list/best-tournament-fight-scenes-in-movies/ranker-film" target="_blank">filming a fight scene</a>, their co-star might slip up and land a real punch now and then. They certainly didn&#39;t sign up for the physical pain, but they refuse to break character and ruin an entire scene for a simple bump on the head.&nbsp;

Whether on purpose or by accident, take a look below at the movie fight scenes where characters threw real punches and decide for yourself if the pain was worth the finished product.

Movie Quotes

While some movie characters pass away without any fanfare, other&nbsp;fictional characters&#39; last words leave a lasting impression on our psyche. In particular, the last words that manage to elicit a small chuckle are forever seared in our brains. Even in their final moments, these characters still manage to pull out one last funny line, simply to ensure that they&#39;ll be remembered.&nbsp;

Of course, last words in real life are rarely as catchy. But if we could manage to deliver a final line like Dr. Schultz in&nbsp;<a href="https://www.ranker.com/list/django-unchained-movie-quotes/movie-and-tv-quotes" target="_blank">Django Unchained</a>&nbsp;or Jasper Palmer in&nbsp;Children of Men,&nbsp;we&#39;d certainly go down in history, much like these film personalities.&nbsp;

Take a look below at some of the funniest last words in movie history and vote up the final lines that still make you chuckle.&nbsp;

The Funniest Last Words In Movie History

There&#39;s something so satisfying about watching two characters rip each other apart on film. <a class="edS-cl" href="https://www.ranker.com/list/funny-facebook-insults-burns-disses/nathandavidson?ref=internalCrossLinking_keyword">The best burns</a> in movies&nbsp;are often phrases you&nbsp;wish&nbsp;you could say, but you&#39;d never have the guts to utter in real life. Instead, you can just sit back and watch two characters insult&nbsp;each other while chuckling quietly to yourself and wishing you could be that witty.&nbsp;

Yes, a well-timed cinematic put-down is somehow incredibly satisfying. That&#39;s probably why there are so many amazing insults to be found in movie history. From family films like&nbsp;<a href="https://www.ranker.com/list/best-toy-story-quotes/movie-and-tv-quotes" target="_blank">Toy Story</a>&nbsp;to adult comedies like&nbsp;Step Brothers,&nbsp;take a look below at the best movie insults and vote up the vicious burns you&#39;ll never forget.&nbsp;

Bruce Willis

From action movie classics to Disney films, <a href="https://www.ranker.com/list/bruce-willis-movies-and-films-and-filmography/reference" target="_blank">Bruce Willis</a> has played a wide range of characters over his long career. But whatever his role may be, you can always count on the fact that Bruce Willis one-liners are sure to be the best part of the film. Known best for his wise-cracking, edgy characters, Bruce Willis&#39; best quotes&nbsp;are a crucial part of the pop culture vocabulary. While some lines could be cringe-worthy in the hands of another actor, Willis delivers each statement&nbsp;with such sincerity and aggression that we can&#39;t help but get on board.&nbsp;

From the <a href="https://www.ranker.com/list/the-best-die-hard-quotes/movie-and-tv-quotes" target="_blank">iconic&nbsp;Die Hard</a>&nbsp;role that turned him into an action hero&nbsp;to classics like Pulp Fiction, Willis always manages to deliver quotes that we just can&#39;t get out of our heads.

21 Of Bruce Willis's Most Memorable One-Liners

The All-Time Best Bruce Willis One-Liners

When <a href="https://www.ranker.com/list/most-anticlimactic-movie-final-fight/jessica-bedewi" target="_blank">facing off against a dangerous villain</a>, you&#39;d think movie characters would want to finish the brawl as quickly as possible and claim victory. Oddly enough, many movie characters adhere to some idea of a fair fight, where they can only challenge their opponent if the two fighters are somewhat evenly matched.&nbsp;

How do they accomplish a fair fight? Well, it depends on the situation. Sometimes the characters throw aside their weapons and rely on their hand-to-hand combat skills. Other times, characters might focus on the timing of the fight&nbsp;in order to ensure their opponent has a fair chance. In a famous&nbsp;Princess Bride&nbsp;fight scene, Inigo Montoya saves his opponent from a perilous&nbsp;fall and then gives him plenty of time to rest, simply to ensure the two can engage in a satisfying sword fight. Unfortunately for Inigo, that decision is his undoing.

Characters who want&nbsp;to fight fair may be noble, but they&#39;re not exactly&nbsp;the sharpest tools in the box. A fair fight is all well and good, but it often results in a <a href="https://www.ranker.com/list/one-versus-many-fight-scenes/jacob-shelton" target="_blank">more dangerous brawl</a> than simply maintaining&nbsp;your advantages and ending things quickly. Take a look below at movie fights that lasted way longer than they should have, simply because the characters decided to fight fair.

Behind The Scenes

It&#39;s difficult to take bad disguises in movies seriously. However, it&#39;s doubly hard to overlook these poor&nbsp;disguises when the rest of the characters in the film fail to recognize how utterly ridiculous the costume really is. Masks that cover only your eyes or a simple change of clothes aren&#39;t enough to hide your true identity. Yet all too often characters don the most basic of disguises and somehow manage to fool everyone around them.&nbsp;

If people were to use these <a href="https://www.ranker.com/list/dumb-criminals-disguised-as-stupid-things/mel-judson" target="_blank">dumb disguises in real life</a>, they&#39;d be caught in seconds. In movies, however, characters manage to make it through scene after scene without revealing who they really are. Take a look below at some of the worst disguises in movies and vote up the ones that never should have fooled anyone.&nbsp;

14 Times Characters Used Embarrassingly Bad Disguises In Movies

Nobody wants to see a comedy that ends on a bad note. No matter the premise of the film, it&#39;s an unspoken rule that a comedy has to end in a happily ever after moment, no matter which rules the creators have to break to get there. While action films are notorious for their heavy plot armor that protects the main characters from harm, comedies can be just as bad, if not worse.&nbsp;

In a comedy, all the rules go out the window. If they want to save a character, the filmmakers can just do it, with only the thinnest of explanations needed. Sometimes, these movies poke fun at how ridiculous they&#39;re being, but other times, they expect the viewer to swallow any ending, no matter how absurd.&nbsp;

These miraculous saves are just par for the course when it comes to your favorite funny movies. Take a look below at&nbsp;a few&nbsp;times comedies saved characters in frightfully bad ways, and vote up the non-deaths that are truly ridiculous.&nbsp;

How do you feel about a little lite apocalypse?

It's the End of the World

While apocalyptic movies are perfect entertainment, we all hope that these disastrous scenarios never occur outside of our television screen. If you&nbsp;did&nbsp;find yourself facing the end of the world, however, certain dystopian movie characters might just have the skills you need to survive. Whether they&#39;re experts in battling zombies&nbsp;like Gerry Lane in&nbsp;World War Z,&nbsp;or they themselves are a superhuman machine like the T-800 in&nbsp;Terminator 2 - which is among <a href="https://www.ranker.com/list/apocalyptic-and-post-apocalyptic-fiction-movies-and-films/reference" target="_blank">the best apocalyptic movies</a> -&nbsp;a companion who&#39;s fully prepared for the apocalypse can make all the difference in crucial situations.

On the other hand, some dystopian movie characters simply get lucky. They have no formal training and sometimes no idea what&#39;s going on, but they still manage to pull themselves together and survive. Take Jim from&nbsp;28 Days Later,&nbsp;for example. This bicycle courier turned zombie fighter has no idea what is happening at the start of the film. Still, he manages to transform into a seasoned slayer by the end, which takes a certain amount of grit that deserves some major props.&nbsp;

So whom would you want to fight alongside? Take a look at some of the most famous dystopian movie characters below, and vote up the companions you&#39;d want by your side when the end of the world comes around.&nbsp;

For the Fanboys and Fanatics

Certain superhero movies are just plain bad. Despite the fact that these&nbsp;substandard films have the potential to turn you off from the entire genre, the <a href="https://www.ranker.com/list/surprisingly-good-comic-book-movie-performances/josh-plainse" target="_blank">best acting performances</a> in superhero movies just might be hidden within their poorly assembled scenes. Even if the movie itself is&nbsp;entirely cringe-worthy, one talented actor can serve as a beacon of light that at least allows you to reach the end without expiring from boredom.&nbsp;

While a few minutes of good acting can&#39;t save an atrociously bad movie, these performances still deserve&nbsp;recognition. Take a look below at great performances in terrible superhero movies and vote up the actors that almost made the movie worth watching.&nbsp;

Great Performances In Terrible Superhero Movies, Ranked

The final fight scene in movies is often the most anticipated part of the film. After watching hours of building tension, viewers assume the culminating conflict between the hero and the&nbsp;biggest adversary will blow every previous encounter out of the water. But that isn&#39;t always the case. Sometimes all that mounting tension leads to a battle that&#39;s more than a little underwhelming.&nbsp;

Some movies use the disappointment to their advantage. The final fight in&nbsp;Kill Bill&nbsp;is made to be anticlimactic, as the quick end to the skirmish feels true to the nature of the characters - and, indeed, the conversation between the two former lovers seems like the main event. Other movies, however, fail to create a scene that feels at all compelling. Are we truly meant to believe that John Wick struggles to take down a single Russian man after slaying hordes of his henchmen throughout the film? We&#39;re not buying.&nbsp;

Whether it&#39;s the ineptitude of the filmmakers, or a deliberate choice on the part of the creators, anticlimactic final fights give us plenty to talk about.

Running in slo-mo at the top action movies, scene, stunts, characters, chases, explosions, etc., ranked.

High Octane Action Thrillers

Famous bomb defusing scenes are a common trope in <a href="https://www.ranker.com/list/worst-action-scenes-in-film/anncasano" target="_blank">action movies</a>. In order to build suspense and up the stakes of a scene, filmmakers will include a countdown to a dreaded explosion, which -&nbsp;if not stopped -&nbsp;will certainly result in unimaginable destruction. Not only do our heroes have to defeat the villain and come out on top, but they also have to do it all before the clock hits zero.&nbsp;

Unfortunately, a ticking clock doesn&#39;t always work with the actual pace of the movie. If a timer says five minutes, producers are unlikely to fill every remaining moment with jaw-dropping action. If it says 30 seconds, however, the heroes may need a little more time to defuse the device. So, how do filmmakers find their way around this conundrum? It&#39;s simple -&nbsp;they decide to create their own laws of space and time.&nbsp;

Instead of staying true to the timeline they&#39;ve quite literally created, filmmakers have a tendency to stick to their own schedule, no matter what the countdown&nbsp;might say. Though the simple solution would be to change the timer after they plan out the sequence, that easy fix is less appealing than simply bending time to fit their needs.&nbsp;

If you&#39;re ready to see just how much filmmakers like to play with the laws of the universe, look below for ticking time bomb sequences from action movies that defy space and time.&nbsp;

Breaking Up

Breakups

<a class="edS-cl" href="https://www.ranker.com/list/best-movies-for-heartbreak/ranker-film?ref=internalCrossLinking_keyword">Sad breakup movies</a>, while difficult to watch, are more than a little cathartic. Unlike romcoms that tie everything up in a neat and tidy bow, breakup movies have a talent for accurately depicting the sometimes nasty ups and downs of relationships. Happily ever after isn&#39;t in the cards for every couple. Even if it is, the best romances usually face a few obstacles before couples find&nbsp;their way back to one another.&nbsp;

Breakup scenes tug at your heartstrings, especially if you&#39;re invested in the fictional separating couple. At times, the scenes feel&nbsp;too close to real life to watch without shedding a tear. Other times, the circumstances that led to the couple&#39;s split feel entirely unimportant next to the power of their love. Still, there are some <a href="https://www.ranker.com/list/broken-relationship-movies/ranker-film" target="_blank">movie breakups that may have been necessary</a>. It&#39;s like a car crash -&nbsp;you can&#39;t look away, even though you know the two people are&nbsp;better off alone.&nbsp;

Whatever the case may be, the saddest movie breakups always manage to stick with you.

Superhero & Comic Book Movies

Although Tony Stark is undoubtedly a genius, his&nbsp;smarts don&#39;t&nbsp;stop Iron Man from making some of the worst decisions in the MCU. Tony knows everything there is to know about technological advancements, but his huge ego and narcissism are <a href="https://www.ranker.com/list/tony-stark-is-avengers-villain/jacob-shelton" target="_blank">his biggest downfalls</a>. He truly believes that he can fix everything on his own, which subsequently means that he&#39;s prone to some pretty dumb decisions.&nbsp;

Whether it&#39;s his own laziness, a belief that he doesn&#39;t need&nbsp;help, or a case of misguided aggression, Tony Stark has a habit of embracing his own stupidity. He rarely apologizes for his mistakes, but&nbsp;lucky for him, things usually seem to work out in the end.&nbsp;

Tony Stark may be willing to overlook his flaws, but we certainly aren&#39;t. Look below for the dumbest decisions Iron Man ever made in the MCU and vote up the choices that are the <a class="edS-cl" href="https://www.ranker.com/list/dumbest-sw-movie-decisions/jessica-bedewi?ref=internalCrossLinking_keyword">height of stupidity</a>.&nbsp;

The Dumbest Decisions Iron Man Ever Made In The MCU, Ranked By Stupidity 

When you sit down to watch a new movie, you never know how it&#39;s going to end. Sometimes you&#39;ll be bored by the entire experience, and thankful for the end credits. Other times, however, you can be fully engaged, only to have the movie completely ruin itself in the last few minutes. If it&nbsp;had ended just one or <a href="https://www.ranker.com/list/movies-that-should-have-ended-two-scenes-earlier/alex-kirschenbaum" target="_blank">two scenes earlier</a>, you would have loved it.

It&#39;s an unfortunate fact that filmmakers are fully capable of destroying their masterpieces in the last few minutes. Whether it&#39;s dragging out the movie too long, adding unnecessary information, over-explaining, or reaching for a sudden twist, these misdeeds&nbsp;are guaranteed to have viewers wishing they could have been present in the editing room. After all, just five minutes can make all the difference.

Can You Say Dastardly?

Animated Characters

The nefarious plots&nbsp;of Disney villains stand as the unquestioned model of evil for young viewers. As a child, challenging the validity of the bad guy&#39;s plans is far beyond the scope of engaged viewing. A sea witch who wants to rule the ocean&nbsp;or a fashion-obsessed woman who craves a dog-skin jacket presents an&nbsp;imminent threat&nbsp;to the safety of Disney&#39;s leading protagonists. That alone is enough to <a href="https://www.ranker.com/list/all-disney-villains-list-of-all-disney-enemies/all-enemies-and-supervillains" target="_blank">classify Disney villains </a>as crazed monsters capable of upsetting the delicate balance of good and evil.&nbsp;

However, if the evil plans of some of <a href="https://www.ranker.com/crowdranked-list/greatest-animated-disney-villain" target="_blank">Disney&#39;s greatest&nbsp;animated villains</a> are examined closely, the total absurdity of their schemes shine through. Not only are their plans riddled with plot holes, but&nbsp;some of their strategies are just plain stupid. While they may have opportunities to tip the scales in favor of evil, most schemes are hardly the work of criminal masterminds.&nbsp;&nbsp;

From sinister queens to power-hungry lions, plenty of Disney villains leave a lot to be desired in their plots. Taking over the world might be on their agenda, but creating well thought-out plans certainly isn&#39;t.

Toss a Coin to Your Witcher

The Witcher (Netflix)

Some fans watched&nbsp;The Witcher&nbsp;Netflix series hoping that the&nbsp;costume designer would be fired. For fans of&nbsp;the&nbsp;video game, specifically, the costumes in the series fell short of their expectations. Many can&#39;t even look at the Nilfgaardian armor without getting angry.&nbsp;

However,&nbsp;The Witcher&nbsp;costume designer had a particular purpose in mind when creating his designs. While the video game has certainly earned plenty of acclaim, the Netflix series wanted to stay true to the original source material -&nbsp;a book series by Polish writer&nbsp;Andrzej Sapkowski. By rounding out the characters and embracing Sapkowski&#39;s original idea, the new series created&nbsp;an engaging show that&#39;s nothing like the&nbsp;games. However, that desire for something new also extended to the costumes.&nbsp;

While some ensembles wowed the audience and others fell flat, all have a story behind them. Take a look below at a few wardrobe secrets from behind the scenes of&nbsp;The Witcher,&nbsp;then go find more great costumes and design in other <a href="https://www.ranker.com/list/what-to-watch-if-you-love-the-witcher/watchworthy" target="_blank">shows like The Witcher.&nbsp;</a>

Netflix's 'The Witcher': Wardrobe Secrets From Behind The Scenes

Action movies are known for their gory gunfights, high-stakes missions, and engaging characters. However, there&#39;s another element that makes for a good action movie: plenty of plot armor to cover the main characters.

It&#39;s an unavoidable truth. No matter how hopeless the situation might appear, you can pretty much bet the <a href="https://www.ranker.com/list/major-movie-characters-who-almost-died/mike-mcgranaghan" target="_blank">main character won&#39;t croak</a>, if only because it will ruin the movie&#39;s happy ending. At times, the character in question&nbsp;magically just gets better, no explanation needed. Other times, the character might offer a halfhearted excuse that explains their survival, even if it&#39;s totally nonsensical. Still other movies allow characters to simply reappear, without addressing the fact that they obviously passed&nbsp;just moments before.

Sometimes it&#39;s better to let the movie&#39;s <a href="https://www.ranker.com/crowdranked-list/movie-tough-guys-without-super-powers-or-super-suit" target="_blank">tough guy kick the bucket</a>, rather than bringing him back and forcing the audience to collectively roll their eyes.
