10 Dramatic Movie Deaths You Couldn't Help Laughing At

Tobey Maguire isn't a bad actor, but he's certainly an expressive one. In the age of memes and gifs, his facial expressions have become legendary, with countless clips from his appearances in Sam Raimi's Spider-Man trilogy being used for all sorts of internet shenanigans.

And it was one of those very expressions that completely ruined the tragic atmosphere of this scene from Spider-Man 3. Near the end of the film, Peter Parker's long-time friend Harry Osborn, who has assumed the mantle of the New Goblin and helped the friendly neighbourhood web-slinger defeat the villainous Venom, is at death's door. Harry gets impaled with his own glider during the climactic battle and has no chance of survival.

In his final moments, Harry is held in the arms of Mary Jane and makes peace with Peter before his heart finally gives out. It's a moving moment, but the camera then cuts to Maguire, who starts to weep in one of the ugliest and most hilarious ways ever captured on camera, triggering fits of laughter in cinemas all over the world.
