What is the best boss you've encountered on a platformer?

On Sonic CD the Stardust Speedway race is one that stands out. At the end of Sonic 3 when you fight Robotnik in that armored up thing with the arms, I thought that was really cool, I also liked the Mecha Sonic in Sonic and Knuckles. In Symphony of the Night I enjoyed destroying that big zombie and watching it's body fall apart. Thats all I can think of.

In Castlevania: Aria of Sorrow, in "the Arena" area where you think your about to fight the
standard, giant sized, Castlevania bat boss then, all of a sudden, a giant fist comes out of nowhere and crushes the bat.......

Also, damn near, the entire Eternal Darkness game

That reminds me of the cool boss in Dawn of Sorrow that had the Laser Eye. Ooh, that was a pretty cool fight. And the Omega Metroid from metroid 4. Sweet.

Also, Fire Leo on the 4th difficulty on Viewtiful Joe. Prepare for rape. I usually dont break a sweat playing a game, but damn...

I hated that damn dragon. Your just jumping along in the dark and then bam! he appears and you die.
