Movies You Wanted To End Differently

[Scarim Coral]

This is how Seven should of ended.
Sorry but I dislike the proper gut wrenching ending even thought it make sense.

As for 28 weeks later

Spoiler

That guy should of fire a warning shots at the kid (or in my case those two kids in the heads) and therefore would of been caught and arrested and never met their mother back in their old home.
If that didn't happen then the army general should of place an obedient guard who does NOT let anyone in including the kid?s father.
If that fail then the measure to protect the civilians should have been guarded with heavy forces.

Seriously there are so many way the infected could of been prevented so easily.

Way too many to list here. But i´ll say that the last film i saw in theatres(The Readjustment Bureau) had a weak ending.I´m not against happy endings...i just think that the movie raised some questions that were left unnanswered in an odd way. A pity, because i enjoyed the first and second acts.

I always wondered how Watchmen would have done in the Box Office, had they used the original ending from the graphic novel. People would probably have hated it. But it would still be damn hilarious to see in real-time 3D.

Yeah, I would have put the real ending in the movie, but for different reasons; because I absolutely hated the movie ending! While I hate to be a fanboy, it should've stayed true to the source material dammit!

Repo Men

Spoiler

The movie should have ended as they were laughing on the beach. The whole "it was a dream past when he got his head smashed in" made all the suffering he went through pointless and somewhat problematic that it was suppose to provide him with the perfect dream, which shouldn?t have had such extreme suffering to begin with, even with the argument he mentally had to justify it.

I agree. The ending of that film was really depressing. I hate endings that negate the events of about half the film.

The Matrix

Spoiler

Neo should have stayed dead. What?s the point in killing someone just so they can resurrect? It?s idiotic and insulting.

Noooo. Then there would have been no 2nd or 3rd movie... And that'd be a disaster. Besides, I thought it fit with the whole "the One" thing. He "wasn't ready to die".

Inception

Spoiler

The spinning top falls. It?s called closure!

It's called tact! I love it. It's like the final second in Xmen 3 where the chess piece wobbles slightly. You have to blink and wonder if you imagined it. But it leaves that pang of doubt, making the film that much more intriguing.
Admittedly, if the spinning top didn't fall, it would have to mean the entire movie was in a dream. But still, it's worth having that slight doubt.

Any horror movie ever made

Spoiler

The good guys shoot the bad guy in the head, smash his head in, decapitate him, burn the corpse and scatter the ashes to the 4 winds. Some sort of ritual cleansing may need to be involved so the evil spirit doesn?t live on. They also verify there are no more additional traps, puzzles or hidden chambers anywhere else around so their creation/son/killing machine comes to seek revenge.

Oh come on, that one's hardly a spoiler. And I think now you're just being optimistic. It's a horror movie. By definition, it must be centred on horror. If the ending was happy as kirby's dream land, it would be a horror movie.

I won't even bother commenting on the rest of your post.

Anyway, for me it would also be The Bridge to Terabithia. Such a depressing ending, and I honestly didn't see it coming. But I guess that's the point.

As much as I loved Clerks 2, I absolutely loved the original ending to the original Clerks

Spoiler

Dante getting shot and likely killed by a late-night robber, with the security camera off making it unlikely that he will ever be avenged. It is a grim ending sure but it also confirms an earlier point in the movie: Life is a series of down-endings

I totally never thought about that until now, thanks

These two statements do not compute. The chess piece shows two possibilities that don?t make the conflicts earlier in the movie pointless like the spinning top or neutrons in the brain did. Either Magneto is simply that badass that he retained some of his powers, or that the cure was only a temporary measure, and each mutant would inevitably regain their powers. There?s a difference between allowing for doubt and invalidating the last hour of the movie and all the coinciding hardships the characters in them had to endure. Unless of course that?s the point, but if so should be done intentionally.

Noooo. Then there would have been no 2nd or 3rd movie... And that'd be a disaster. Besides, I thought it fit with the whole "the One" thing. He "wasn't ready to die".

I wasn?t a fan of either the 2nd or the 3rd, so wouldn?t have been a huge loss for me. If he wasn?t ready to die, he shouldn?t have died in the first place. It irks me that death means so little to plot. Neo should have stayed dead in the same way Superman should have stayed dead. If you?re going to advertise their respective deaths, they need to stick or they?re as paramount as a hang nail.

Oh come on, that one's hardly a spoiler. And I think now you're just being optimistic. It's a horror movie. By definition, it must be centred on horror. If the ending was happy as kirby's dream land, it would be a horror movie.

My beef with the stupidity of the characters, nothing more.

I won't even bother commenting on the rest of your post.

When I get started?

 

[WorldCritic]

Part of me wanted for Scott Pilgrim vs. The World to end with the deleted ending instead of the final one.

 

[Xombiebubble]

Not what i wanted but,
i though that in order to get as much money as possible and justify another batman movie, The Dark Knight would have ended when Harvey Dent shows his face two-face for the first time, leaving it open ended as an excuse for a new batman movie

 

[Doktor Sleepless]

Part of me wanted for Scott Pilgrim vs. The World to end with the deleted ending instead of the final one.

I still don't get how Edgar Wright thought that was a possible ending, the books never even meander that way.

Mine would be Tim Burton's Alice In Wonderland. I was expecting a comment upon the cyclic nature of myth and stories, and how they are told and retold. I was expecting the White Queen to revealed to be as bad as the Red, but prettier and that the whole Frabjous Day destruction event occured EVERY Frabjous Day as the queens essentially swapped the kingdom between them every year. And every year a new Jabberwocky is born and a new "Alice" arrives from the human realm.

Alice would have talked the Jabberwocky round during their duel, given a big middle finger to the prophecy, and the 2 would have led the characters trapped between the 2 armies (Hatter etc) against the 2 Queens and their armies.

And then the Hatter would NOT dance like a retard.

Well I haven't read the books and I feel it felt right, also the writer and Edgar didn't want it to be a one to one copy of the book judging from the commentary. As i said before many audiences which they tested liked the current ending more as it showed that knives had grown up and didn't need scott anymore.

 

[Major_Tom]

The Return of the King should have ended 30 minutes earlier, and I'm talking about the theatrical version. I don't want to go anywhere near the extended edition.

No, but they were going to. Pretty sure Brian Lee O'Malley actually changed his planned ending after he saw what the film was building to

I'm sure zombieland could have done something funny if it had all of the main characters die in the end.

 

[Romblen]

Repo Men

Spoiler

In the last 5 minutes they reveal that the last half of the movie was a dream. That was bad writing when I was in elementary school, it's even worse when done by professionals. Take out the last 5 minutes and the film would have been much better.

I never really liked the end of Die Hard 3
it felt like the movie had already ended and simon gruber had won after he escaped with all the gold bullion
then it felt like they just hurredly tacked on a piece at the end where the chopper he's in get's blown to shit and everybody wins
having said that, it's still the best of the quadrilogy, just the sudden zig-zag of pace at the end makes it feel rushed

here' the alternative (and far better) ending to die hard 3

ah yes i've seen this on the deleted scenes on the DVD and i have to agree with you sir, it's much better
it's still ridiculous and stupid
but there's just something preferable about it

 

[Jazoni89]

Splice, oh my god Splice.

Spoiler

The creature should of died instead of turning sexes, and raping he/she's mother.

If the ending was different, that film could of gone down in history.

 

[HapexIndustries]

The Hollywood ending of Watchmen totally ruined it for me.

Also, the entire third Matrix movie should have been different, ie, not sucked. If it had only been a matrix within the matrix (or something, there's articles dedicated to this) it would have lived on forever as an awesome trilogy with a weak middle movie. But no, it is remembered as having a good first movie. Had there been a sick reveal in part 3 like there was in part 1... magic.
