In how many movies does a Bruce's character die?

A few years ago I could name all of Bruce's movies where his character died or got killed. But now I don't know exactly how many times he died. I remember The 12 Monkeys, Armageddon, The Sixth Sense, Sin City, but I think there is more. And now we have The Cold Light of Day. This movie is crap but it is important it terms of Bruce's 'dying' statistics. Any more movies?

Setup, catch .44, looper, 16 blocks?..can't remember. Mortal Thoughts,

In 16 Blocks he did not die, as far as I remember. But I have just remembered The Jackal. Bruce is a villain and dies. I did not see Setup and Catch 44. Are they any good? Looper - right, I forgot about it.

that was the original/alternate ending of 16 Blocks that he died in. he lived in the end of the final cut/theatrical ending.

That's a good point, but I think there might also be a direct correlation between (a) the size of the budget available to pay his fee and (b) how long he lives for. I think this film may take the prize in terms of the sheer speed of his demise. I haven't actually timed it, but I just can't face running that 'film' again to find out.

I think the budget was worked out backwards, i.e. "How much to keep Cavill and Weaver in it for the full length...? how much is left in the kitty now...? OK, we have to kill Bruce early."
