What the hell is it with these non-endings pervading movies recently?

<div style='font: 10pt arial; text-align: left; '>First the Fast and the Furious, now Final Fantasy... Are writers out of ideas or just lazy? *I* can do better than this...granted my idea of better would be as many lesbian strippers cavorting across the screen as possible, but still, it'd be an ending at least...</div>

<div style='font: 10pt "arial narrow"; text-align: left; padding: 0% 5% 0% 5%; '>Watch Beneath the Planet of the Apes, and you'll never complain about an ending of any other movie being crappy or anti-climatic.</div>

[S.Cody2]

<div style='font: 14pt Plakatbau; text-align: left; '>Strippers? Sure, If you want the PG-13.</div>

<div style='font: 10pt "Arial bold"; text-align: left; '>Non-ending? Fast and Furious? What was so non-ending about that? There doesn't have to be complete closure for a movie to end. There have been MANY classic movies over the years that left loose ends *cough*Star Wars*cough*</div>

<div style='font: 11pt "EngraversGothic BT", "Copperplate Gothic Light"; text-align: left; '>You mean the second one? That definately had an ending :)</div>

<div style='font: 10pt Arial; text-align: left; '>It's probably the production companies faults for having such horrible endings because they aren't sure if they want to have a sequal to a film or not, so the endings are always cliffhangers. It's a way for the industry to make money. In my opinion, the Final Fantasy ending was Final (the punning never stops!), but it didn't give anyone a sense of closure, but I guess if you've played a couple of the games (still tryin to beat FFII and FFVII) you'd figure out that's how it was supposed to end, crappily.

As for Fast and the Furious...I haven't seen that yet.</div>

<div style='font: 10pt "arial narrow"; text-align: left; padding: 0% 5% 0% 5%; '>Well everything HAS an ending, that one was just particularly bad (not unlike the rest of the movie).</div>

<div style='font: 10pt Verdana, Tahoma; text-align: left; padding: 0% 10% 0% 10%; '>If you want a non-ending, rent The Ninth Gate. Interesting buildup with no pay-off.</div>

[Chockboard]

<div style='font: 10pt arial; text-align: left; '>There's too many loose ends, like what Brian was going to do (not only did he let Dom get away but he also shot Johnny Tram while undercover and without giving warning, etc.), and what happened to Mia. I guess it did have an ending but it wasn't very satisfying.</div>

[Torgo]

<div style='font: 9pt Arial; text-align: left; '>Watch The Score. It'll relieve your pain.</div>

[Gentz]

<div style='font: 11pt arial; text-align: left; '>Actually that was my biggest complaint with the Score.</div>

[Gentz]

<div style='font: 11pt arial; text-align: left; '>"Hey, uh, how's Brian going to explain to his superiors that he just let the guy he's been tailing for weeks drive off in his car?"

"Well, he's, um, going to...uh....you're fired."</div>

[SineSwiper]

<div style='font: 11pt "EngraversGothic BT", "Copperplate Gothic Light"; text-align: left; '>Yeah, I hated that.</div>

[Kupek]

<div style='font: 10pt Verdana, Tahoma; text-align: left; padding: 0% 10% 0% 10%; '>Mine was that the beginning half was too slow.</div>

[Torgo]

<div style='font: 9pt Arial; text-align: left; '>How so, out of curiosity?</div>

[Torgo]

<div style='font: 9pt Arial; text-align: left; '>But since they're the LAPD, they'll let it slide.</div>

[S.Cody2]

<div style='font: 14pt Plakatbau; text-align: left; '>I just saw most of the ending, but I'll probably see it (for free, heh heh) anyway. Another film somewhat ruined by commercials.</div>

[S.Cody2]

<div style='font: 14pt Plakatbau; text-align: left; '>I didn't see the movie in entirety, just chunks. Nice looking brainless flick. Who actually stayed to the end of the credits to see the last bit?</div>

[S.Cody2]

<div style='font: 14pt Plakatbau; text-align: left; '>They'll compensate with more minority beatings.</div>

<div style='font: bold 12pt "Comic Sans MS"; text-align: left; '>Mine was the entire movie</div>
