I'd like to make a suggestion for the Feast movies but I don't feel comfortable editing the main page. I think the trope is pretty justified by the first 5 minutes or so of the first movie where the hero (or so claimed by the movie caption) lasts only 60 seconds before being offed. The rest of the movie and the two sequels continue the trend.

Everybody was "uncomfortable" with editing once. The only way to get better at it is to practice.

"The Deus Ex series. The player can kill any character they can get to, provided they also have access to their weapons at the time, no matter how plot important they are. It's actually kind of fun to kill everybody you can and see how the plot adapts. Invisible War even Lampshades this a bit, by way of an Easter Egg that brings the character to a special room populated by any character that hasn't been killed." This isn't true at all for the first Deus Ex. Most plot important characters can eventually end up dead by the player's actions, but you don't get to just outright kill them just by shooting them as this implies. How should this be edited to be fixed?

A lot of these aren't valid here. It's not anyone can die since the main protagonists have Plot Armour.

Death Note - Light doesn't die until the last episode. Wonder Woman - Steve Trevor dies, but not her. Does Judge Dredd ever die? Jason Bourne Last of the Mohicans doesn't fit. Serenity. Ok. But not the captain. Blade doesn't die. Batman doesn't die in Dark Knight. The Boondock Saints don't die, come on now. Harry Potter. Ron. Hermione. Harry (even with his little afterlife moment, he's not GONE.) Bourne Identity Lord of the Rings. Not Frodo because he's the protagonist. Deadwood. Once it's rolling, Al's not gonna die, neither is Bullock. Tony Soprano was safe. Halo. The main characters survive.

So, what's the difference between Anyone Can Die and Dropped A Bridge On Him?
