Top 10 Worst Ways to End a Movie
These are some of the worst ways I can think of to end a movie.The Top Ten
It's a pretty lazy way to end any movie.
This is why I kinda hated KKTV - TeamRocket747
Fant4stic and Age of Ultron - MegaSoulhero
Depends on the execution of the character's(s') death. Gladiator is a good example of the (SPOILER) main character dying and still maintaining a satisfying ending/ - CrimsonShark
I actually disagree. This isn't overused to the point of it being a big cliche, and not all movies have to end all happy - Phillip873
Oh, I don't know...Even though Misery only had two main characters, somehow I didn't feel cheated when Annie Wilkes (Kathy Bates) was killed off. - Britgirl
Even though it's not a movie, Gundam: Iron-Blooded Orphans is a great example of how killing off the main character at the end can ruin something. - PerfectImpulseX
Especially if a sequel will never be made.
Well hope they don't make Half life movies then - EliHbk
Unless there's a sequel - PeeledBanana
So you hated the ending of Iron Man? - MegaSoulhero
I actually laughed out loud just from reading this because I could totally picture that. I feel it would work if Simon Pegg did it.
Reminds me of that movie about a phone. Oh yea. The emoji movie - TeamRocket747
'Emoji Movie' - Drawbox
Done to death in horror movies especially Unfriended...
Cheap as all hell. - mattstat716
Yup. - TeamRocket747
This explains itself.
Yup - TeamRocket747
While the Shrek movies mostly used this method a lot when concluding their movies, it's been done to death in many other animated movies. Most of the time, I'm fine with it if it's relevant to the plot or it's well-executed, but other times, it just feels tact on and more like kid-pandering. That means you, The Emoji Movie... - ModernSpongeBobSucks
Lets dance baby (cues dance song) - Neonco31
This has been done to death. - egnomac
I don't really mind these, unless there is absolutely no reason for it to happen (-coughemojimoviecough-) - Phillip873
One of my least favorite cliches, this is just a cheap way to pull an ending to a movie out of your ass. - Phillip873
That's stupid, I hate that stuff - EliHbk
This has been done to death...
So boring - TeamRocket747
Protagonists learn and change like normal people and if they don't learn or improve then they're terrible protagonists.
If this happens in a movie, you know you screwed up. - Phillip873
The Little Mermaid - MegaSoulhero
Almost all movies use this - TeamRocket747
No movie I can think of has done this yet but still it would be a cheap way to end a movie.
Cheap way to end a five nights at Freddy gamw - TeamRocket747
The Contenders
Imagine that you're watching a movie, and you understand the plot before the movie ends. Then, the movie ends with a 10-minute monologue explaining the entire plot, while giving you the exact same information that you already found out yourself during the movie.
I hate this - EliHbk
I hate it - TeamRocket747
AKA: Every M. Night Shyamlyn movie ever.
Yup - TeamRocket747
I hate these - TeamRocket747
I so agrew - TeamRocket747
Some movies do deserve an ending where the protagonists achieved what they set out to do and are rewarded. Many great stuff like "The Shawshank Redemption", "The Lord of the Rings" and many of the Mario games have happy endings and wind up praised.
Yes, there are darker endings that do work as well, but happy endings are sometimes deserved depending on what genre a fiction is based upon. - CrimsonShark
There's been enough Michael Bay movies like that.
Michael Bay confirmed. - PeeledBanana
Michael gay. - TeamRocket747
Like what happens in every Disney sequel from Wreck it Ralph 2 onwards. Even Frozen 2 had this.
