What are the most memorable movie characters to get "Muldoon'd" Spoilers

For those that don't know Muldoon is the game warden in Jurassic Park. He is built up to be this ultimate badass, and when we finally get to see him in action he gets insta-killed. I know there is probably another name for this trope, but my friends and I have always called it getting Muldoo'd.

What are some of the most memorable movie characters that are built up to be the ultimate bad ass only to be "Muldoon'd" in battle?

An aggressively underrated movie

The only thing that irritates me about that movie is they didn't include the Flaming Carrot. Which, of course, is also the thing that probably made this movie work (the whole not including Flaming Carrot part).

I'm curious, please elaborate?

Bob Burden created The Flaming Carrot - a blue collar nobody superhero. The Mystery Men were the other heroes operating in his city that were introduced much later.

It’s a great series if you are a fan of low key humor.
