Yeah very true, you would think they would have enough money to, oh I don't know, shoot the last 30 minutes of that movie, instead of having little text come up telling how it ends, cheap.

Still liked it though, call me crazy

WHAAAAAAAAAAAAT?!?!?!? I thought the ending was great. I mean Arnold HAD to die to beat the T-X. There was no other way to kill her than to sacrifice himself. Also, I thought the inevitability of Jugdement Day was great because it sets the story up for more great Arnold ass-kicking.

reloaded. i know it's supposed to be a cliffhanger coz the story ends with revolutions, but everything felt rushed in the final moments of the film. one thing i noticed about the movie was that all the important plot points were conveyed through mostly boring conversations- even the final scene (not to mention the architect's speech). that's why most people didn't understand the film, and why it got mixed reviews. i don't know bout you guys, but it seemed like the wachowskis concentrated too much on the fight scenes and just placed the conversations in between them for good measure... that's why reloaded was such a disappointment.

and about the ending, take a look at the first two LOTR movies. they both had no endings, but the final moments were great- very moving and never too abrupt. the wachowskis should have made it like that.

Even though I loved the movie, the ending to Minority Report was so tacky. Come on Speilberg, you could've done a lot better ending wise.

07-27-2003, 05:10 PM
I enjoyed Minority Report's ending, it was perfectly fine. The ending was basicly having that guy comit suicide. Then it explained that the company was shut down. What's wrong with that?

Anyways, yeah They probably has the worst ending ive seen in a long time. Watch the alternate ending on the DVD, it's better.

OK. Anderson originally intended it as an homage to the work of Charles Fort, but it has a greater meaning. Exodus 8:2 says "And if thou refuse to let them go, behold, I will smite all thy borders with frogs". This refers to the story of Moses, and his people, his followers. They could be called the Pharaoh's "children". Magnolia is mainly about the relationship between parents and children: Donnie and his parents (who stole his money), Frank and Earl, Claudia and Jimmy, Stanley and his father. In a way, the rain of frogs ended up being of similar use as in the bible. The people were smitten, and things were set right, to a degree. Jimmy was punished for his alleged sexual harassment of his daughter (many intuit that the fire that starts represents the flames of Hell and it is somewhat evident that he does indeed die), Donnie is stopped from committing the robbery, Jim Kurring helps him (which, it could be argued, gives him the courage to return to Claudia at the end), Earl dies (possibly a result of shock from the frogs). The behavior of the parents is punished by the frogs, in some ways. It is possible that the frogs were intended as a divine message, telling everyone to "wise up". But that's just a theory.

I would of rather of just had a remake of the original movies. The book was kinda dumb anyways, which is why they rewrote it when putting it on film the first time. The concept was just neat.

Plus the original movie is said to have one of the best endings in cinema history. It does strike so in my mind.

Citizen Kane

Me too, to a degree. I would have liked it if Burton had worked in more satire.

Identity is a movie of the year contender if you ask me. We had an ending that no one saw coming. It was so original and creative. During the movie, I was atcually thinking and trying to figure out whose the killer, keyword word being thinking.

Exactly, it was a total copout. Even worse than a "It was all a dream" type of copout at the end of a movie. I hate that crap.

Another movie I thought had a terrible ending was K-Pax. But I didn't really enjoy most of that movie.

T3's ending was pointless. Having you realize that it was utterly pointless to have tried and change the apocalyptic future to come was just a cheap way to have made an alternate version of the peaceful ending T2 should have had. All it was there for was to ensure that the war with the machines would provide more fodder for a sequel. People complain about the Hulk, but in terms of "making a pointless grasp for a sequel" T3 takes the cake.

I know some people might not agree with me, but POTC2's ending was not as good as it could have been. The Barbossa part was genuinely ingenuitive, but the whole thing felt so incomplete I felt as though if there was a rental I had missed even while still in the theater to get any sense of completitude. The Matrix Reloaded/ Revolutions falls into the same bin, with the "infrared glow" add-in being the worse part of the trilogy for me. It was bad enough watching a good first film get turned into a mediocre trilogy, but more? No.

Unbreakable's ending was so bland it made me go "wha...?" The movie is good, and shows superheroism as just a greater extent of the common good. It's one of my favorite films, but that ending was so cliche and incomplete it left me with a bad aftertaste. I wish they would have revised that before release. Spielberg's War of the Worlds was another one that left me with a bad aftertaste- the movie was mediocre save the good rendition of the tripods, and then they decide to bring back the idiot who should have died. Ugh.

Burton's Planet of the Apes ties it for 'bad ending to a bad film'. It's like Burton suddenly realized his movie was uninventive in every manner and decided he was going to "hit you with a wammy" that neither hit me nor amazed me in the trainwreck of a film. Same goes for Batman and Robin. I'm so very, very glad "Batman Triumphant" was trashed. After the setup the ending left in what I still feel is one of the worse comic book movies to date I'm fairly certain BT would have bombed worse in all categories than even B&R.

I'm not narrow-minded.
I know exactly what the ending of T3 meant. It meant that we can not escape our future and that we will meet it one day. It meant that we will eventually walk blindly into what we don't know and that we must take a stand towards it.

I just didn't like it. I wanted the Terminator films to end with a happy ending.
I didn't like how everything in the first 2 movies were in vain. Everything that Kyle Reese and the Terminator (T2) did to help stop the terrible future was in vain. James Cameron didn't intend for it to happen, so I block it out of canon, regardless if he ended up liking it.

T3 had great action scenes, and, critically, it was a good movie. I just disliked it for being made, and for making the first 2 movies pointless.

Star Trek Insurrection... I hated the ending of that movie.


all of a sudden, it just cuts out... you don't see a dramatic end or anything...

Doesn't it just end with them leaving the planet, then the Enterprise just launches off? I didn't remember Picard saying "Make it so". I haven't seen Insurrection in a long time.

Star Trek: Nemesis was another one with a fairly inane ending. Killing off Data was a really hokey twist to compliment a really hokey story.

Stuart Baird is a great editor, but a TERRIBLE director.
The screenplay for Nemesis was terrible as well.

Jonathan Frakes should've directed again.
It was the writers', not his fault, for Insurrection being bad.

I'm not narrow-minded.
I know exactly what the ending of T3 meant. It meant that we can not escape our future and that we will meet it one day. It meant that we will eventually walk blindly into what we don't know and that we must take a stand towards it.

I just didn't like it. I wanted the Terminator films to end with a happy ending.
I didn't like how everything in the first 2 movies were in vain. Everything that Kyle Reese and the Terminator (T2) did to help stop the terrible future was in vain. James Cameron didn't intend for it to happen, so I block it out of canon, regardless if he ended up liking it.

T3 had great action scenes, and, critically, it was a good movie. I just disliked it for being made, and for making the first 2 movies pointless.

well i'm sure Johnathan Mostow had some pressure from the studio to end it in a way where they could keep going or "reinvent" the series like they were talking about a few years ago. i personally think this series has potential even without Schwarzenegger.

Star Trek Nemesis was simply a complete rip-off of The Wratch of Khan. I still enjoyed it though, just not nearly as much as Khan. :)

the end has it just end with seeing the back of the ship, then cut to credits... that's it. You don't get the feeling that it's over... it really feels unfinished...

what they should of done is show the Enterprise enter warp and then cut to credits... that would of been a lot better.

As of recent, I can only think of two.

Saw III. an okay film that was decently entertaining, until the end, where it A: pulled too many twists out at the same time...and B: the lame set up for yet another sequel. I don't remember walking out of a movie more angry...except for...

X3. I hated the whole movie, BUT the ending just made me sigh. I walked out angry at the movie, but just puzzled at which writer thought that would be a good ending to a "franchise" (and I am not even mentioning the "Secret" ending at the end of the credits.)

Harry Potter And The Prisoner Of Azkaban(the freeze frame ruined the ending)

Yeah, but James Cameron meant for this to be ambiguous, which is the reason why we get the Sarah Connor epilogue with the shot of the two-way street. It was never stone cold set to be in a loop, which is why it makes the first two pointless. I, like many others, disregard it from canon.

If it's not meant to be a loop, then why did the arm of the Terminator end up in the exact same company that supposedly creates them in the future? That's what we call a paradox, OR a loop.

And no matter what you take for canon or not, it's still just entertainment. If the future Terminators really wanted to secure their existence from the rebels, they would have sent one back further than they did to kill Sarah when she was young, before she was able to get pregnant in the first place. But like I said before, we wouldn't have a story.

It's as if you have a solid mob story going on then Scorcese hands it off to a high school film student/writer and says "take care of the last 10 minutes for me while I grab lunch." Of the 100 ways you could have ended that movie, they went with the one that I would have picked dead last. Disappointing wrap up to say the least. Still, movie wasn't bad.

Hight Tension-Nothing worse than a movie that does whatever possible to make it so you don't know what is going to happen at the end. It was a good movie but the end sucked IMO. Twist endings are fine, but it at least needs to make sense.

1) War of the Worlds - the son being alive was a total copout.

2) Matrix Revolutions (the two sequels should have never been made)

3) (documentary) An Inconvenient Truth - instead of dealing with how people could make a difference in the documentary, they relegate it to the credits. I also have a problem with the documentary as a whole. The first five minutes of "Who Killed the Electric Car" quotes more experts on global warming than the entire documentary, "An Inconvenient Truth" where Gore constantly says, "a friend of mine said..." or "according to a friend of mine..."

4) Batman & Robin

5) Jurassic Park III (no originality - total "copout" ending).

6) Contact (the director changed the screenwriter's original vision in two key areas - who the aliens were and how the movie ends. In both cases, the director should have stuck with the screenwriter's original vision because it was MUCH BETTER).

I liked this movie and now I want to know about about the screenwriter's version.

I agree, it was a great movie then the ending came and it just wasn't good.
The movie was horrible, and that inclues the ending. It had **** all for a story.

Honestly. I think there is a difference from

a bad movie with a bad ending,

and a movie that was good up to the ending, and the entire film is brought down to degree because of the ending.

This years example.....
----Shooter. I thought the first 3/4 of the movie was fairly decent and enjoyable (nothing amazing, but better then your average crap) and the ending really was a cop-out and done very lazily and brought the entire movie down for me.

Jurasic Park 3... Again a movie that I enjoyed enough up the the end of the film, and it was just a weak ending.. I just feel the entire movie falls on its face hard.

-Generic style ending of anytype of movie that i hate
The 2 guys 1 girl ending of 50 movies, where girl loves both guys, but either one dies at the end so she just gets the other guy or, she picks one, and the guy thats left out, just finds instant love during that 30 second ending..

I hate all movies that do that.. pearl harbor did that. That is example of bad movie made worse by such a stupid ending..

Pirates 2

It's a cliffhanger ending. Much like Matrix Reloaded before it. It's supposed to make you go "HOLY CRAP! I can't wait to see part 3!"

If Dead Man's Chest wasn't going to have At World's End coming out anytime soon, then I would call it a bad ending. As it stands IMO, it's a terriffic ending.

PIRANHA 3D

look, remake or not, if Riley Steele is in this than it's more than worth the price of a ticket. she is a stunningly beautiful woman, and, i think people will be pleasantly surprised by her role in this film. either way, just to catch a glimpse of her in this film(and in 3D)is something i think plenty of movie goers will flock to the theater for.

Yes, I agree with the Mist. Also Sunshine.

I liked the final shot of Sunshine with Sydney covered in snow and the girl getting her... brother's (I think, maybe husband, I don't remember) message just as the sun is re-ignited/re-created/whatever, but I hated that it turned into a goofy horror/slasher/bad movie in the second half.

IanTheCool

Yeah, the final shot was great. but it was that turn that illed it. And it would have been the best movie of that year otherwise. what a shame.

I didn't like the Sunshine's sudden turn into a slasher movie either. And, can I disagree on The Mist's ending? I thought it was great, though somewhat out of character for the characters, so to speak.

JBond

I got used to Sunshine's ending.

And the idea of the captain being alive and ****ing everything up was just fine and a great twist, it's HOW he filmed it, giving it, as already mentioned, a horror feel and perhaps even supernatural quality. It was just too stylistic.

PsYkOoOoO
12-05-2009, 01:23 AM
I just thought the tone of the last part of the film was too different from the rest of the movie. It almost felt like it was directed by two completely different people altogether. I suppose I can buy into the part about the captain going crazy and killing people and everything. But then I thought it was unnecessary to frame it in such a way that he wanted everybody to die because God willed it, or something like that. Perhaps it was a way to bring in the topic of religion in this film, but I thought it was kinda weak, you know. The rest of the film, however, superb.

The Skeleton Key had a bit of a shocking ending as well.

And I think I'll also add Ralph Bakshi's Lord of the Rings which ended rather abruptly.

Babylon A.D., I left more confused than when I walked in to watch it.
Hancock, again confused on how quick they went to a ending
I Am Legend, the last half ruined the whole thing for me
The last two Matrix movie endings, actually both movies were just bad imo.
X-men 3, just pissed me off
Cast Away
Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull, do I even need to explain

The ending to Knowing could have been cool attached to a better movie. Or atleast one where we had a clue that such a bold ending was going to be used. (And it could have done without the tree)

I loved all three of these films, but ultimately didn't like the endings:

Star Trek-Generations-Didn't have a problem w/ Kirk dying, just hated that a sci-fi icon died in such a lame fashion and to such a vanilla antagonist. He deserved better, and ugh that final line "It was fun"...cheesy.

Superman Returns- Though the scene where Superman talks to his sleeping child was very touching, the way he tries to sneak away without Lois knowing, and then the lack of emotion between the two before he flies off saying "I'm always around", makes me wonder if Lois would have sought child support from Clark in the sequel.

Cloverfield- Although every main character dying is a bold and emotionally effective choice for a films ending, I wish Rob and Beth would have survived and maybe just a little more explanation on why the creature was attacking the city, IN the movie... not on a directors special features dvd or on one of the many viral sites from before the films release (was a great time leading up to the film though).
