A Sean Bean Violence PSA

ByPaul Posted on

I don’t always borrow from Tumblr, but I have to give them credit when one of their horde gets something right. This image has been floating around the blogging site for some time, and it’s a very important lesson that we should all pay attention to.

We all know that Sean Bean dies in movies. If you didn’t know that, you’ve never seen a Sean Bean movie. But 20 times? Wow, I had no idea. At this point it almost seems like some sort of cruel joke. “Hey Sean, you landed the lead!” “That’s awesome!” “Buuuut he’s sort of a tragic hero…” “He dies, doesn’t he?” “Yeahhh.” “Goddamnit.”

I think I'm a part of the first generation of journalists to skip print media entirely, and I've learned a lot these last few years at Forbes. My work has appeared on TVOvermind, IGN, and most importantly, a segment on The Colbert Report at one point.
