I know a number of you dislike his performance in ROC and Tatum never appeared to be very supportive of ROC. But, I like the character and I can only hope that death is their final answer for Duke.
If there is one thing that does kinda annoy me in movies, is how often they "kill off" well characters. Be it hero or especially enemy (Raimi's Spiderman: Green Goblin, Doc Oct, etc. Singer's X-Men: Toad, Sabretooth, etc.)

I'll tell you one thing, either he dies or he just isn't in the movie that much. He isn't giving a straight answer and you know if he was in the movie a lot and they asked, he'd just say yeah and that he had fun doing a lot of the scenes. He'd go into detail into what he had to do in scenes, just like all the other actors have been.
He can't say he dies or he's not in it that much, because of the importance of his character and how it was played in the first movie. Basically, this is him trying to bluff whenever asked about it and let's just say he has a terrible poker face. |

for a movie it makes sense for villains to die. in action movies, the villain always dies at the end. that's the finality audiences expect from movies.

It's just hard when you're looking at a villain (or hero) who's been involved in a story line for years, or decades only to see them die after only a couple of hours.
How long did Two Face reign in Dark Knight? Maybe 15 minutes before getting killed?

Ok, I see my post/ thread got a lil' front page treatment (yay me). Thank you mods. But the new article title is inaccurate as all hell. The possible death of Duke in Retaliation is only questioned and never answered. If anything, an obvious rumor that is making the circles, being asked about by MTV just adds more speculation.

Yeah! It would be nice to see some of the villains not "bite the bullet". I liked how Nolan treated the Joker in TDK, but felt a lil' disappointing that Dent couldn't just elude death.
