Default Re: Very good movies with very bad endings

I thought AI was great, except the ending was the most retarded thing ever

This or Return of the King win this category hands down. Both had three cinematic "endings". In AI the second one felt right, and the third was so bad, when I rewatched it, I turned it off after the second ending. (Where btw, I'm certain Kubrick ended it, died, and didn't think to consult Spielberg.) Spoiler in white, (but if you haven't seen will you really?)

<font color="white"> Second ending: Main character falls to bottom of ocean, where he sees the remnants of the Statue of Liberty and then "dies", or at least stays down there. Camera zooms out wide on ocean. THE END...Or [censored] not. Suddenly a thousand years later these futuristic robots come out and save him and Teddy and everything's different and pointless. Aaaargh! </font>
