So it's the last scene of Armageddon, right? The shuttle lands and Ben Affleck is walking back and here comes Liv Tyler running at him ...............with her hair in a bun. :wtf: I mean, first of all, while some women can pull off a bun, like, at a funeral or while playing the harp; Liv Tyler can't pull off a bun and should never attempt it ever again. And why should she have too? And secondly, bitch, the man just saved the fuckin' planet in a spacesuit. With Steve Buscemi. Show some respect! And, like showing a little midriff for the rest of the heroes benefit would have fuckin' killed you. :surprise: :cussing:

The Lord of The Rings - The Return of The King, the damn thing never ends. There´s like three times where the movie could (should) end, but it just goes on and on wrapping up stories that noone really cares about. The book is even worse, with the pointless plot about Saruman´s return.

The end of the Matrix trilogy. Sure, the attack of the robots stopped, but what about the infinite amount of people in the energy fields? As long as the robots live, they will need these human batteries.
So everyone in the movie is happy that the abuse of humans will continue on forever... Hurray!

Titanic. Rose should have moved her ass over on that piece of wood and let Jack on. Especially since, ya know, she was stupid enough to jump OUT of a lifeboat and back onto the ship, thus requiring Jack to look after her ass. Bitch.

And then there´s the ultimate "Huh?, wait...what? Did i have some sort of blackout and miss some important piece of plot, or what the hell is going on here?" ending: City of The Living Dead

I know it is a TV show and not a movie, but the ending of the U.S. version of Life on Mars was an awful ending for a great 1-season series.

Endings that nullify the entire movie. Two examples off the top of my head would be Wisdom, a crap Emilio Estevez movie from the 80's that got a lot of play on HBO so I watched it a few times, and Jacob's Ladder , an otherwise very cool Tim Robbins movie but with a crap ending.

:cool:

Gonna mention a television series if you don't mind. Biggest B.S. ending in television history -- The Sopranos' final episode. :hairpull:

Dude! I was just about to post the same thing. I was a big Sopranos fan. I watched every episode, but that ending annoys me to this day! I heard some critics at the time say they thought it was a good ending, but I just can't see it that way.

If you're going to bring TV into it, then Steven King's IT was awful.

It was what? A giant spider? Oh FFS!

The original ending to the studio approved cut of "Blade Runner".

Even worse though was the ending of "Don't Look Now", a Nicolas Roeg film made in 1973. That probably tops my list of "Why the hell did I watch that stupid movie?". The ending is unbelievably absurd.

"Titanic" is up there too, but since James Cameron has "Aliens" to his credit, I cut him some slack. Although, he did drop the ball again with "Avatar", which somewhat compromises the cool factor of "Aliens".

Check out the ending the studio wanted to tack onto the ending of Terry Gilliam's Brazil. It was brutal.

Basically, yes.

In Gilliam's version, the one we see most, Sam Lowry escapes with the help of Tuttle, he then goes off with his girl to live happily ever after...but it is all a dream of Sam's while he is being tortured, highlighting the tragedy of the whole thing.
The studio wanted the movie to end with Sam and his girl running away, living happily ever after. Fortunately, Gilliam blew a gasket and refused to release that version.

Any of the Paranormal Activity movies, the last one's ending sucked. The end of Land of the Dead, 90% of the horror movie remakes have shit ball endings as well.

Thank god Gilliam plays hardball with the studios. Of course, it's also meant we haven't gotten near as many Gilliam films as we should've.

I'm not sure I'd refer to the ending as highlighting the tragedy. In my opinion Sam was victorious because he "escaped." But that's open to interpretation.
