Alternate crap movie endings

If it's a given fact that this movie has the worst ending ever, I was wondering how other movies could have been ruined if the endings had been different. This is what I came up with:

Star Wars: Han Solo turns traitor, blows up Luke's X-wing in the trench, Death Star blows up remaining good guys.

Raiders of the lost ark: Ark is opened, clown jumps out and shouts 'Boo!' and everyone has a good laugh.

Casablanca: Rick turns Renault and Lund over to the Germans, who shoot them as traitors.

Rocky: He loses.

E.T.: E.T. passes on infection to fellow aliens, who all die ala War of the Worlds. Or departing aliens shoot/kidnap Eliott & family for kicks.

Rosemary's baby: It's a stillborn.

Spartacus: "That's him!"

Any more?

Rocky DID lose.

Death is...whimsical today.

--Rocky DID lose.--

Yep! All his other examples are hilarious, though.

A more appropriate comparison, Rocky-wise, would be this:

Rocky gets knocked out in the first round, after one punch from Apollo.

i thought rocky ended with rocky and apollo having a draw?

[–] chriswalken 15 years ago

No - Apollow won the fight by decision. Rocky achieved his goal of simply going the distance and making it through all the rounds, thereby winning the respect of Apollo (and the nation). It's actually a really great ending, in my opinion.

Titanic: Rose pulls Jack up out of the water from drowning, but in doing so falls off the door and drowns.

Scarface: Instead of shooting everyone to death, Tony dances a jig. Cut to black.

Die Hard: Al accidentally shoots John and Holly instead of Karl.

Saving Private Ryan: On the Normandy Landing, the American soldiers see all the gunfire and chaos, so their boats turn tail the other way.

Alien: When the chestburster pops out of Kane, it dies ala "War of the Worlds". No more alien.

Passion of the Christ: Jesus doesn't get crucified. It turns out it was just an elaborate prank concocted by that scoundrel Judas. The two shake hands, turn to the audience, and give them a thumbs up.

L.A. Confidential - the Captain kills Bud White and Ed Exley, thus getting away with his plan to take over Mickey Cohen's drug racket.

Equilibruim - turns out that Bale's character was in league with Father all along, he turns in the whole resistance and everybody stays zoned out on Librium.

The Prestige- he gets away with it, keeping the kid while both twins die.

The Bourne Identity - Jason Bourne is caught by the government and dies in prison without ever regaining his memory.

Identity-all the other personalities were an illusion that the guy was having just before he was executed.

The end of the ice age causes the sea-levels to rise and everyone drowns.

Jumanji - Robin Williams: "That was fun, let's play again!" And rolls the dice.

The Sixth Sense - The kid turns out to be the one who originally killed Bruce Willis. The movie was him reliving the events of the past, from behind the walls of a prison for the criminally insane.

The Gods Must Be Crazy - Tribesman throws the evil object over the cliff. Then goes to a vending machine to get another Coke.

Lean On Me - "Crazy Joe" goes nuts and kills several of the students at the end. Oh, and the school still places last in the basic skills test and closes down.

Friday the 13th - At the end Jason is unmasked and it turns out to be Jim Varney, who says, "You got me, Vern" before petering out in an overly dramatic death scene. Or, Jason says "And I would have gotten away with it too, if it weren't for those pesky kids!"

A.I. - Oh, who am I kidding? I can't possibly imagine an even worse ending.

Johnny Got His Gun - He gets better. Turns out it was only a flesh wound.

Finding Nemo - Marlin and Dory finally reunite with Nemo. At a sushi bar & grill.

I just suffered from this god awful movie. The posts here are hilarious. I like that Spartacus one.
Orphan the psycho seduces the father and he kills his wife. Not before he finds out the daughter can really talk. She tells everything and then the father kills himself because of his deadly mistake.
It's a Wonderful Life. George the main character commits suicide.
Saving Prvt Ryan. Private Ryan isn't saved. The Tom Hanks character just turns around and reports back to his superior when Ryan asks not to be taken home.
Forrest Gump. It was all a dream his mother was having.
THe Odd Couple Felix really jumps out of the hotel window.
Basically every movie would end in a dream or a suicide.

The Dark Knight:The Joker and Batman are the same person

Reminds me of Neil Gaiman's story where the Joker turns out to be Alfred and everyone goes "NO WAY"

The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly - Blondie lets Tuco hang, or misses the rope and shoots Tuco in the face.

Pulp Fiction - The camera zooms into the briefcase, revealing Marcellus Wallace's laundry.

2001: A Space Odyssey - Dave: "Open the pod bay doors Hal" Hal: "Sure Dave, I was just messing with you."

I'm glad everybody feels the same on this.

The Sound of Music: The Nazis catch up with the Von Trapps and they all die in a barrage of machine gun fire.

The Matrix: Neo wakes up. Cut to black. Roll credits.

The Shining: Jack Nicholson stops in the middle of the hedgemaze, comes to his senses, drops the axe and gives his son a big hug.

Jaws: The shark chokes on the ship's propeller and dies.

Gone with the Wind: Rhett doesn't say anything, he just leaves. Then Scarlett doesn't say anything, she just stands in the door and watches him leave. Triumphant music and THE END.

V for Vendetta: The REAL ending happens.

Magnolia: It rains WATER.

Little Miss Sunshine: Rent the DVD, watch the GOOD ending.

Sweeny Todd: The police arrest him, and he says, "I never wanted to be a barber anyway. I always wanted...to be a LUMBERJACK!" (Sorry, that's the awesome ending)

Nightmare on Elm Street: It was all a...nevermind.

If you were offended in any way by the preceding post, go make one yourself.

Rocky- Rocky is disqualified at the weigh-in.

Lifeboat- The ship that picks them up is a cruise liner from the 80s. They've been wandering around the ocean for 40 years.

Lethal Weapon 2- It turns out that the South Africans also killed Rigg's wife years ago. Oh, wait...

Rocky: He wins.

Seriously, the end of Rocky made the movie for me, because he DIDN'T win the fight, unlike what most crap Hollywood movies would do. It was realistic.

And that's my #1 reason for hating Rocky II, of course. A movie made only to have the main character win the fight in the end.
