Heroic film deaths! (Might contain FILM ****SPOILERS*****)

--- Quote from: Switchblade ---Asuka, End of Evangelion (although I'm a little confused about that one. Did she actually die or not?)
--- End quote ---
You have every right to be confused; Evangelion is not meant to be understood by normal human beings. She was inside her Eva robot when the other robots began to devour it. But she does show up at the very end, after the world is destroyed. Shinji, as the last man alive, apparently re-creates the world through the sheer force of his will, but what he comes up with is chaos and the two of them lying on the shore. He starts to strangle her, rather than allowing humanity to continue, and she doesn't even fight back. But he can't go through with it, leaving her to utter the Japanese equivalent of "Geez, you're a wimp."
Fade to black, roll credits, and watch Gainax rake in the dough 10 years later.

Tergon:
You guys say Boromir was a heroic death, but nobody's mentioned Gandalf? He got the others to run and faced down a Balrog on his own! How is that not heroic?
And before anyone even says it, he DID die. Then he came back in his second and more powerful Boss Form - Gandalf the White. If he'd died again he woulda come back as Uber MechaGandalf.
Um... who else?
Jason Todd (Robin II) died heroically. It was hella nasty, but heroic.
Zach from Dark Angel shot himself to save Max.
Doc Ock from Spider-Man 2. He repented and *then* died heroically.
Harry Stamper (Willis) from Armegeddon killed himself with a freaking nuke to save the world. BADASS TO THE POWER OF INFINITY.
Faker:
agree with pretty much everything so far, but will throw in
Miles Dyson, in Terminator 2, blowing up himself along with the lab

--- Quote from: hey_there_fatty --- Tyler Durden,Fight Club.
--- End quote ---
I have to ask about this one. Tyler dying a hero?
Insofar as Fight Club had a villain, it was Tyler. He started a terrorist organisation, blew up the narrator's apartment and tried to take over his life, and was probably directly or indirectly responsible for a lot of deaths.
In the end, the narrator killed Tyler to regain control over his own life, and then consciously took over Tyler's role as leader of Project Mayhem.
Heroic?
