[[folder: Sorting Algorithm Of Deadness ]]


Using the scientifically '''''Infallible''''' power of the SortingAlgorithmOfDeadness, who do you think is the next in line for being brought back from the great Bus in the sky?

To use the Algorithm, simply add the Column's "Death Value", and divide by the number of applicable rows.

If the character hasn't died yet (but seems likely to), see SortingAlgorithmOfMortality. All of this is trumped by the FirstLawOfResurrection.

Currently, [[spoiler:The real Caulder]] from ''VideoGame/AdvanceWars: Days of Ruin'' and [[spoiler:Teri Bauer]] from ''Series/TwentyFour'' are the only characters to have scored 4, the highest possible. And are notable for having 4 in ''every'' category. At one point, [[spoiler:Shirley]] from ''Anime/CodeGeass'' and also scored 4, thanks in part to a special [=CLAMP=] bonus that became harder to defend as the series went on. [[spoiler:Chloe Sullivan]] from ''Series/{{Smallville}}'' is currently the only character to have scored a perfect 1, in the episode ''Fracture'', with the rest of the cast not even taking her death seriously, fully expecting her return.

----

'''Baseline Example: The death of Franchise/{{Superman}}.'''
* Cause: HeroicSacrifice, so he's not coming back from that too quickly, or the sacrifice will be cheapened. 3.
* Genre: It's a comic book, so DeathIsCheap. 1.
* The Body: DeaderThanDead, a PietaPlagiarism too for supes sake! So no chance of FakingTheDead. 4.
* Reaction: ReallyDeadMontage, uh-oh. 4.
* Characterization: Protagonist. 1.
* When did he die: Same year, so 2.
* Come Back?: This was a first, so 4.
* Average: So add it up... we get a pretty high score, 19! Since it's not a videogame, divide by 7, and we get... 19/7 = 2.7, meaning supes isn't coming back for at least a few months, maybe even years. In actuality the ''Death Of Superman'' happened in January 1993 and he came back some time before May 1994.

----

'''Now let's make a prediction with the recent death of Franchise/{{Batman}} in ComicBook/FinalCrisis.'''
* Cause: HeroicSacrifice, give or take. 3.
* Genre: Comic book, so DeathIsCheap. 1.
* The Body: [[DeaderThanDead Dead and buried]], but it's a little more complicated. Still, it's a 4.
* Reaction: [[HesDeadJim He's Dead Clark]], plus "ComicBook/WhateverHappenedToTheCapedCrusader?" probably counts as a ReallyDeadMontage. 3.5.
* Last Words: "Try Me." 3.
* Characterization: It's [[MemeticMutation The Goddamn Batman]], people. 1.
* When did he die: Same year, so 2.
* Come Back?: This would be the first time, so 4.
* Average: 21.5/8= 2.7. A semi-high score, and DC seems to be sticking to this one for a while. Still, he'll definitely be back, likely before the end of 2010 at the latest.

[[folder:''Avatar'']]

Col. Miles Quaritch (if only because so many people like him):
* Cause: Two [[ThereIsNoKillLikeOverkill six-foot arrows]] through his chest courtesy of Neytiri. 4
* Genre: Ton of minor characters die (among hordes of no-name humans and Na'vi). 4
* Body: Drops with the AMP suit onto the ground. We basically see Quaritch draw his last breath. 4
* Reaction: If Neytiri's hiss counts as a BondOneLiner, then it's a 4.
* Last Words: None, but his reaction is of shock and pain. 3.5
* Characterization: Main villain, in at least the first of the trilogy. 1
* When did they die: Nothing really progresses after his death except for Jake transferring consciousnesses after a month or two. Technically a 1
* "Died" and come back?: No. And given the surprising [[SlidingScale/MohsScaleOfScienceFictionHardness hardness]] of the series, highly unlikely. 4
* Average: 3.1875 - Oddly low score, considering other factors, but it'll take a HandWave to bring him back. And [[Creator/JamesCameron Jim]] isn't very fond of that.

[[/folder]]

[[folder:''The Dark Knight Trilogy]]''

Ra's a'Ghul in ''Film/BatmanBegins'':
* Cause of Death: [[LeftForDead Left on train about to crash]], although DeathByIrony has some argument too, since he tried to train Bruce to be willing to kill, and died just after Batman got the upper hand complete with IronicEcho - 2 or 4
* Genre: Nolan-verse, death is common, even among key characters - 4
* Body Found?: Aforementioned train crashes, no mention of the body being found in the movie, and novelization says no body has been found yet - 1
* Reaction: Well... none, really. Perhaps an 'It's Personal' on Batman's behalf when he chooses not to save him - 2
* Last Words: Final speech, about Batman doing what is necessary - 3
* Characterisation: Archvillain. A magnificent one, at that - 1
* When: InUniverse at least a year passes between ''Begins'' and ''Film/TheDarkKnight'' - 2
* Previous Deaths: In this continuity, he's never been dead before, because the wrong guy was killed at the fortress. In other continuities, though, he has almost JokerImmunity. This series - 4. Including other continuities - 1.
* So, all added up, that gives us grand totals of 16/8 (2.0) for the most lenient score or 21/8 (2.625),for the harshest. The door is conceivably open for a return.

Two-face in ''Film/TheDarkKnight'':
* Cause: I'm calling it as a "NoOneCouldSurviveThat" - 2
* Genre: Nolan's verse is in AnyoneCanDie territory - 4.
* Body: "DeaderThanDead" 4
* Reaction: "HesDeadJim" 3
* Characterization: Regular 2
* When: He dies at the end of the same movie he's introduced, so I'd call it as "Same arc" - 1
* Come back before: Not yet in the Nolan-verse, so I'll let this be a 4.
* Average: 2.86.

And, in the same movie, Rachel Dawes:
* Cause: [[DisposableWoman a Fridge dropped on her]], so 4
* Genre: 4, like above
* Body: "Never found" 3
* Reaction: [[spoiler:Two-face uses this death as the touchstone for his crime spree, so you could say that]]"ItsPersonal" 2
* Last words: KilledMidSentence 4
* Characterization: Regular 2
* When: "Same Arc" 1
* Come back before: No - 4
* Average: 24/8 = 3.0, and worse if you think that showing Harvey and Bruce both grieving and Alfred comforting Bruce bumps this up 3 instead of a 2. Fare thee well, Rachel.

[[/folder]]

[[folder:''Kingsman]]''

Let's start with Harry's death in [[Film/KingsmanTheSecretService the first movie]].
* Cause of Death: [[BoomHeadshot Shot in the head]] by Valentine, subverting the JustBetweenYouAndMe trope. Thus DeathByIrony applies - 4
* Genre: In the first movie, almost all deaths are etablished as real - 3
* Body Found?: LeftForDead by Valentine and Gazelle - 1
* Reaction: ItsPersonal with Valentine - 2
* Last Words: "[[TemptingFate Sounds good to me.]]", in answer of Valentine telling him he was going to escape in a convoluted way, like in old spy movies. - 2
* Characterisation: Deuteragonist and [[TheMentor Eggsy's mentor]]. - 2
* When: InUniverse, a year passes between ''Film/KingsmanTheSecretService'' and ''Film/KingsmanTheGoldenCircle'' - 2
* Previous Deaths: Nope - 4.
* Average score : 2.5 Even the trailers of The Golden Circle revealed his survival.

Roxy in [[Film/KingsmanTheGoldenCircle The Golden Circle]].
* Cause of Death: StuffedInTheFridge by a [[DroppedABridgeOnHim bridge drop]]. - 4
* Genre: From the second movie, it is etablished that people can survive bullets in the head. - 2
* Body Found?: Her body is never seen in the rubbles. Also, the missile doesn't hit the palace directly, but the yard in front of it. - 1
* Reaction: [[HesDeadJim She's dead, Eggsy]]. - 3
* Last Words: [[OhCrap Shocked]] when she sees the missile coming. - 4
* Characterisation: Eggsy's [[TheLancer lancer]]. - 2

Banquo:
* Cause of Death: [[ThereIsNoKillLikeOverkill Either died or passed out from being impaled, then left to drown in a river.]] - 4
* Genre: KilledOffForReal. - 3
* Body Found: LeftForDead. - 1
* Reaction: Despite being [[BigBadFriend Macbeth's friend]] [[{{BetaTestBaddie}} whom Macbeth felt inferior to,]] Macbeth is apathetic about his death and, upon seeing Banquo's ghost, [[NeverMyFault tries to shift the blame on the murders]]. [[AdaptationalVillainy Ross]] doesn't feel bad for the murder either. - 4
* Last Words: O, treachery! Fly, good Fleance, fly, fly, fly! Thou mayst revenge. O slave! O, treachery! Fly, good Fleance, fly, fly, fly! Thou mayst revenge. O slave! - 3
* Characterization: TheLancer. - 2
* When: 10+ years ago. - 4
* "Died" and Come Back?: Only as a ghost, [[MaybeMagicMaybeMundane assuming it was real]]. - 4
* Average: 25/8=3.125. The odds are against him, but he still has the highest survival rate out of all of the characters. Guess they should have double-checked before leaving him behind.

* Genre: KilledOffForReal. - 3
* Body Found: Yes. - 4
* Reaction: N/A. - 4

* When: 10+ years ago. - 4
* "Died" and Come Back?: No. - 4
* Average: 31/8=3.875.

* "Died" and Come Back?: [[AdaptationOverdosed No matter how many times he gets readapted]] in a SettingUpdate, he will always be a different guy. - 4
* Average: 30/8=3.75.
