For me, it was always Optimus Prime from The Transformers movie.

    I’ve kept this vague, but still, SPOILERS ahead for The First Law series by Joe Abercrombie. SPOILERS. I’ll see if I can get the damn spoiler tag working, but SPOILERS.

    EDIT: No dice, I can’t seem to get the spoiler tag working on Interstellar.

    <details><summary> Spoilers for The First Law series by Joe Abercrombie</summary>

    At the very end of the ninth and final book of the First Law series by Joe Abercrombie, your favorite character (possibly just of the series, but they might be your favorite fictional character ever) that you’ve spent three books getting to know and love and cherish is fucking executed in front of people they love and then you find out that execution was orchestrated by the second best character in the entire nine book series. It felt like my heart was being ripped up and I fukken wept like a small child. My partner was angry and depressed for months because this character stood for so much that was good and hopeful and then they just fucking died in such a horrible way. Joe Abercrombie is a fucking amazing writer for being able to elicit an emotional response like that and he’s a bastard for doing so. The moment is totally earned and I’d highly recommend the books. Just make sure you’re in a good place emotionally before you start the last one.
