Superman 1978
Superman turns back time by flying around the globe really, really fast.
Even allowing for the suspension of disbelief required to accept a flying, super-powered man, this still makes no sense.
Why would spinning the world back on its axis result in turning back time?
Kung pow enter the fist, cause in the end credits they showed the scenes for a 2nd movie but it was never made
Harold and Maude. I thought to myself, watching it "I think this is my new favorite movie" then right near the end it goes into a downward spiral. It left me sitting on the couch yelling at the TV...
Watch some of the movies on "Crackle", then your list will probsbly get longer. Oh wait, the post asked for shitty endings, not moviez.
Well personally I like nonlinear narrative, also, as with a lot of non linear narratives it's open to speculation but I'll give my idea,
I'm not able to explain every single thing about the ending as it shifts from linear narrative into metaphor, but also, we're dealing with the next step in human evolution fueled by something that may be beyond human comprehension, so a confusing ending as actually very fitting
It's a film about the next steps of the evolution of mankind, the whole way through the film the monoliths have been tracking and aiding human progress, and cultural and evolutionary benchmarks, apes using tools, traversing other planets and getting to the distance in the galaxy of the final monolith
My interpretation of the final 30ish mins of the film is Dave taking that next step in human evolution, being transported to an almost zoo like area containing all the things the monolith has advanced, showing him while being transported there knowledge beyond our comprehemsiom, creation of the universe etc
Just before Adam dies the monothith appears again to him and as he does transforms him into the starchild, the beginning of the next step
Here's where I'm conflicted, the final images of the film are either literal, the starchild has been sent back to earth to finish the monoliths work, or its all metaphor, its a metaphorical image of the birth of the new human race, shown to us as a metaphor because our minds wouldn't be able to comprehend it, at least not until after the next step in human advancement
I appreciate that.
I'm a very literal kind of guy, great at fixing things, building and operating them. Not so good on the artistic end, creating art or music.
I read books and watch movies because I want the story teller to explain everything to me, not make me imagine an ending to his story. If I'm going to have to imagine the end, I might as well write the whole thing.
The Return Of The King. God, i thought that ending was never going to end
Watchmen had a total downer ending, but then again none of the characters in the graphic novel/film are without major flaws, and no one's really likeable other than on a "what a bamf" level.
That, and both Alien 3 and Terminator 3. Sequels whose endings killed both series outright for me. Then again, I doubt those sequels even had to be made in the first place.
Hell, the beginning of Alien 3 is enough to kill that series outright (and this is coming from a person who actually enjoyed the weirdness of Alien: Resurrection on its own terms).
The Devil's Advocate
The Wolverine
I am Legend.
Good movies ruined by shit endings..
And 47 Ronin.
The devil inside, it was a shit found footage hooror film anyway but it stops halfway through a scene and a message pops up saying something like, the case is still unresolved for more information visit and then a website for the film, they couldn't actually finish the film on screen and asked you to go to a website for more of the story
