* In ''[[Harry Potter (film)|Harry Potter]] and the Order of the Phoenix'', we see {{spoiler|Sirius die}}, in a super dramatic, [[Tear Jerker|Tear Jerking]], gut-wrenching scene. Then we finish the battle. Then we see Harry and Dumbledore have less than a five minute conversation. Harry barely looks upset. And that's pretty much it for the rest of the series.

In [[Harry Potter/Harry Potter and The Order of The Phoenix|the book]] however, Harry trashes Dumbledore's office and yells at him. He then spends most of the remainder of the year in solitude, until Luna comforts him. |

** In ''Goblet of Fire'', {{spoiler|Barty Crouch}} is found dead in the woods and... no one cares. It's literally never mentioned again. Not that his death should inspire all that much angst, but it's a fairly important plot point in the book, and besides, a Ministry official ''showed up dead in the forest.'' Someone want to... look into that? |

* In ''[[The Hitchhikers Guide to The Galaxy (film)|The Hitchhikers Guide to The Galaxy]]'', Arthur Dent watches as everyone he ever loved or cared about (except Trillian) plus the entire human race destroyed right before his eyes. He is quite literally half of the entire existing human race, with absolutely no hope (at that point) of rebuilding the species or ever going home. All over a bureaucratic snafu by an uncaring galactic government, and he receives absolutely no sympathy from other characters for the genocide of his race. And this is played ''for laughs''. The story rolls on, Dent doesn't seem too broken up about it (it might not have even happened as far as Trillian is concerned) and its all [[Handwaved]] at the end. |
