That’s not how it should’ve ended

"Aaand scene...and scene..and scene."

Ever get that feeling when a movie ends that you could’ve made a better ending?

It’s normal to have criticism after watching a blockbuster, indie, or any other sort of film, but there’s also watching a movie and expecting one ending, then getting another.

While it’s wonderful news to still be able to be surprised, it may not all be great.

Take for example Captain America. I won’t spoil you with the story of it due to the fact that I keep a reasonable amount of time reserved from movie release date time to not spoil any storyline. But in this case, I will refer to the video that ‘How It Should Have Ended’ made (somewhat spoiler alert!):

Doesn’t this remind you of how some films could’ve ended a lot better had the ending been closed off in a more sensible/believable manner?

I could go on and on about Stephen King films, but they’re adaptations of the book, so I’d be going after the source of the problem.

Personally most of the Indiana Jones films relied on one or two myerious forces, but for Indiana Jones & Kingdom of the Crystal Skull, aliens swirling around and killing the bad girl’s head.

The film Australia could’ve ended halfway. You know, before the second film started. Thinking about too many endings, when did you think the third Lord of the Rings film end?

What films come to mind that ended too abruptly, or made no sense, or even just plain upset you?

    the end of super 8 came rather unexpected,it should have further explored the characters with a 6 months later type of scene.all the film your rooting for the 2 characters to get together just as they do it ends and makes it feel like you have kind of just wasted your time watching any of that story

    Hey Ryan!
    I totally agree on that. A lot of films that end abruptly end up upsetting the viewer rather than letting their ‘imaginations soar’. Of course a person can imagine what happens next, but that far too often ends up as fan fiction.
    Speaking of, I’m gonna find the scriptwriter to Inception and find out what really happened…
