    It's second place. His horrible "Vegeta dying of lung cancer" voice ruined it for me when I was first watching it.

    Had I watched in in my country's dub I would have liked it better

    I wasn't a huge Armada fan and Armada Starscream wasn't my favorite Starscream due to being kind of unstarscream in character but his death was super memorable to me and pretty tragic.

    Kinda wish they hadn't undone it in Energon but at least they waited for another series.

    Poor Starscream's movie death was not only gruesome and humiliating, it had to be more painful for him to die that way.

    As to this poll, I put the movie cause of how much pain and agony he was put through, but.......

    Armada Starscream was a badass. It was basically
    "You wanna kill me? Screw you, I'll kill myself."
    It was very reminiscent of
    Dinobot
    s death in beast wars.

    G1 was more accurate, But Movie was my favorite part when Starscream was screamming in pain.

    G1 Starscream's death was definitely the more brutal of the two - he had just assumed control of the Decepticons and then Galvatron shows up and immediately blasts him into ash and dust. Definitely the most shocking for me - I remember sitting there with my mouth hanging open in disbelief.

    Movie Starscream, on the other hand, his was the most painful I'd say - first he gets a grappling claw crushing and pulling out his right eye, then he gets a pointy stick jammed into his other eye. He was definitely suffering, and I'd say his panic made it much worse for him. Plus, it carried the humiliation of being done to him by a human. His death, however, was really just not that impactful - at least not for me, and Starscream is my favorite character. Movie Starscream was so poorly developed, IMO, that when he died I just kind of shrugged - and it felt strange because I felt like I should have been more upset to see him die.

    G1 Starscream's death is more iconic, but Movie Starscream's death is without a doubt the most painful way to go! So movie death for me.

    Movie Starscream had an absolutely pathetic death that dragged on for an irritating amount of time. G1 Screamer's death was iconic.

    G1 Screamer was more of an impact on me since I got to know the character as I was growing up, Movie Screamer was useless and not strong enough
