LOL Emilio Estevez

Why cast him when you're gonna kill him in the first 15 minutes? And to add in the worse way possible, impaled in the eye and crushed by an elevator. Ouch!

Was it some glorified cameo death? He seems to be uncredited.

This will be the only comment or reply you'll get. Like I give a sh!t about YOUR interwebz opinion.

Basically yeah—they did it precisely because it was so unexpected. He was a pretty big star at the time, so it was a shock to see him die so quickly, and it lent some extra weight to the team-kill sequence, to make you really feel like Things Are Going Wrong.
