For me it's Leon the Professional

Sadly every time he dies


Desmond, this is your only warning. Failure to use spoiler tags again will result in a suspension. -Blake

Pay it Forward, I thought that movie was very good, with a great little message until they randomly
Spoiler:
killed the kid in the end.
It had absolutely nothing to do with the plot!

It might be good to put these endings in spoiler headers.

I thought the ending to Frailty was great, BTW.

The ending to True Romance always seemed in need of a rewrite to me.

Spoiler:
What happened to Christopher Walken? I was waiting for a big showdown with Christopher Walken and never got it!

Plus, Christian Slater's escape seemed a little too easy for me. Would have preferred he was either killed, or if he survived through a much more clever plot device than he conveniently had to use the bathroom and missed much of the big shoot out.

You're really making a lot friends here, eh Desmond?

Perhaps you should take a look at this thread: http://www.dvdtalk.com/forum/showthr...hreadid=304204

As Good as it Gets

Spoiler:
The romantic feel good ending didn't work for me and I thought they could have made it still upbeat but in a different way.

Chasing Amy. Not quite the very end, but that whole

thing.

That is just an uncomfortable scene to watch. Every single time.

Yeah, seriously. Leon is a great movie and for people who haven't seen it that post is a pretty big f'n spoiler.

What didn't you like about it?

Personally,
Spoiler:
I thought it was rather neat how they turned it around after two hours of thinking that the kids' dad was just nuts to show that everything that he was saying was actually true, and he really was destroying demons. Sure, having Adam be the sheriff was a bit predictable, but I found the ending overall to be pretty good.


For me, it's The Iron Giant.
Spoiler:
Sure, he survived the blast, and he's going to be all repaired once all his parts get back to him, but the part where he flies off gets me every time... sniff

I've always hated the ending to Se7en...right now I can't remember why since I try to unremember movies that make me angry, but here is a link to my original SPOILER-laden thought:

Return of The Jedi
Spoiler:
I wish Lucas would have left his original ending with the Falcon and Lando going up in flames. And get rid of those stupid ewoks.

That has never been confirmed.

And the ewoks aren't so bad when mixed in with the SE ending to ROTJ, the only really good change to the trilogy.
