See you, Space Cowboy... *sob*
First comment drops one of the most epic...well played, man, well played indeed. I'll continue with this theme of destruction by dropping in V for Vendetta and Gran Torino. "Now me...I got a light. It's right here." What a way to top it off. On a side note, the best movie to display glee and delight without ever shoehorning in an annoying and unnecessary love plot (no, really, there isn't one! Gasp, I know!) is Mr Magorium's Wonder Emporium, and gets a bit of a runner-up medal for having a damn fun ending.

Also,
If you haven't seen this film, see it now! I loved it. The way Ben Wade gets on the train to honour Dan, but then whistles to his horse...
I really liked that movie until the ending. The ending made me dislike the movie overall, because the main character's behavior was in stark constrast to everything he'd done over the entire film. I found it to be silly, but to each their own, I guess.

That is not the ending. The ending is a monologue by Sam Elliot, and it's awesome.

The dude abides... indeed. I don't know about you, but I take comfort in that: That he's out there, "The Dude", taking 'er easy for all us sinners.

OT: The Usual Suspects, Twelve Monkeys, the Departed, and Dr. Strangelove are all good. I'll even throw another relatively new one in there: Thank You for Smoking.

All these pale in comparison, though, to the greatest ending of all time: One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest. I'm serious. If you haven't already, go see it. Right now.

Hate to bump, but this is the best movie ending ever.
Takashi Miike is a genius.

I will go with Pulp Fiction, Reservoir Dogs or Chaos, all three are great movies but I think Chaos does the best ending of the three.

I would agree with you on Silence of the Lambs... *chills*

Buuut I prefered the ending of The Life of Brian. Monty Python songs are always awesome!

The ending of that film made me so sad. I'd read the play beforehand so I knew what was going to happen, but it was still poignant.

Um... hmm... I can't think of anything that hasn't already been mentioned. I'd like to mention LotR: Return of the King, if only because they stayed truer to the book than I would have thought feasible for a Hollywood-type film.

The end of the third series of The League of Gentlemen was probably my favourite ending to a comedy series ever, I was amazed they managed to wring so much emotion out of such an unpleasant cast of characters.

And if we're talking about anime, I loved the ending of Neon Genesis Evangelion. And I mean the original ending. So they had budgetary and time restraints; IMO that just forced them to be more creative and abstract, something which was ultimately to the benefit of the show.

I loved the ending to "Arlington Road" - probably one of the biggest surprises I've ever got watching a film.

Oh, and the ending to "2001: A Space Odyssey" - my brain exploded a little after the movie finished.

The Fifth Element.

Semi-visible sex scene in a stasis tube FTW. With the President of the International Federation demanding to see them within 20 seconds.
And epic music.

I love that movie :D

Monty Python and the Holy Grail!

(i keed, i keed)
When that movie finished, I was really pissed. Not because of the anti-climax, but because it finished at all.

The ending of Moulin Rouge is one of my favorites.

It's the end of the performance, and you almost for a few seconds forget that it's a tragedy. Then Satine dies, and you're going "but she's gonna come back, right? Right?" Nope curtains close. Sad ending.

1) Where Eagles Dare, if you have been paying attention to the entire movie.

2) Reservoir Dogs
Where Eagles dare, man, that film was excellent. Thanks for reminding me of that.

I'm gonna go with Clue. Anyone who's ever seen that movie can guess why.

I stare at the screen dumbfounded, stunned and stupefied.

AHHH DAMNIT! Ninjed in the first post!

Well, besides fight club (Damnit...) I'm going to have to go with DayBreakers
i mean, it ended with the opening for a part 2, but the whole turning the boss back into a human just to have him get chomped to death by his underlings was just great.

unfortunately there might be a new series because the author said "Spike only did what the person thought, he might of died or just past out... who knows?"
Okay, sorry for doing this, but I am sick of and tired of this mistake. IT'S "HAVE" NOT "OF"! IT'S NOT "SHOULD OF" (OR IN THIS CASE, "MIGHT OF") IT'S "SHOULD'VE" (MIGHT'VE), WHICH IS AN ABBREVIATION OF "SHOULD HAVE" (MIGHT HAVE)! WHEN ARE PEOPLE GOING TO GET THIS RIGHT?

OT: I second Holy Grail, it comes out of nowhere, but it isn't completely random.
