I agree with you, I don't think he will die

The audience for one would be very annoyed if it happened as it would be unnecessary. Plus how could you kill off the utterly fantastic Sylvester McCoy? I won't be too bothered if he dies well, maybe he disappears (like old Ben in Star Wars), or turns into the moth (PJ may not be able to resist that one, although there would be no need to kill him in that case). Here are the main reasons why I don't think Raddy will die: Reason 1: I know the staff looks identical to Gandalf's in FOTR, but look closely at Raddy's staff in the picture where he holds it two-handed. Now, ignoring the colour of the crystal, looking at the staff in detail shows that it is *not* the same staff (I may be in for a debate with this one, because I'm convinced it's not the same one). Reason 2: Killing Radagast for the purposes of drama will only work if he's killed in film 1 or 2 (*spoilers* because if he dies in film three it will undermine the deaths of Thorin, Fili and Kili. *end of spoilers*). Therefore he's have to die in film 1 (we wouldn't have enough time to get to know the guy if this happened, so it's unlikely) or film 2 (the only viable option).
"Radagast is, of course, a worthy wizard, a master of shapes and changes of hue, and he has much lore of herbs and beasts, and birds are especially his friends."-Gandalf, The Lord of the Rings.

Because his quest/task was done?

Gandalf could easily say his task was done.

There is an easy explanation for Raddys abscence in LOTR:

None of this would improve The Hobbit or The Lord Of the Rings.//

Yes. Also, a single Elf of the Noldorin clan is a Noldo, not a Noldor
