This is 90% of the write-up I gave you, and that's great, because I had a real ball with the write-up. (I particularly like the "why is the Scorpion King fighting?" bit).

I did spot you removed some catergories, but that's OK, as some were for his 'death' at the start.

Oh, and those spoilers are not so hidden on the write-up page...

Whoops! Heh, I hope I didn't ruin that for anyone who didn't want to see, it was brilliant! Just not all that unique.

The object looks like a gold trophy (hence why Jon was carrying it), but if you twist the top, the sharp end pops out.

Doesn't it have an actual name in the movie? The Spear of Osiris or something?

That might be it. I'll have to watch the flick again (not too hard, as I own it).

Remove Monster, as he was not killed by one. Magic could replace it, as the spear does have supernatural properties (like killing large, crappy CGI monsters). Vanishing Corpse is another, as his body disappears after the explosion.

i dont think vanishing corpse sums up what happens, he dissolves into a swarm of scorpions.

Vanishing corpse is when at the end of a film the character is death, but then disappears to leave the audience thinking "is he really dead?" - this is best summed up with Michael Myers in Halloween, where he is categorically killed, but when the doctor goes to look out the window, the corpse is missing....

Yep. I just watched the film. That would be it's name. The write-up can be updated, if MB wishes.
