Amping up the shaky cam to produce immediate vomit rockets after the slow beginnings which happen in Paris instead of NY. <BR/><BR/>It makes more sense over there because of the wimpish nature of the yellow back military raping frogs (Dafar UN assist anybody?). To sweeting the thrill, all the Raghead-sorry- Muslims will be right behind the monster in euphoria and declaring it to be the Sword of Allah destroying all those infidels and themselves setting afire all the untouched cars in it's wake. <BR/><BR/>Hell, you could still have the "heroes" as expatriates having a party for a new guy fresh off the plane from the US and have them all blast the Imperialistic nature of that horrid land! ...

It's ALL CG" and those stupid Following a horse over a burning bridge -Only on CG!- and not the final joke of "Let's follow those arrows all the way into a hairy clod ..SEE?!

I'm not ...How's about one of the more recent flick. I'm not imaginative to figure out a more satisfacting end to the recent Golden Dildo winner called "No Country for Old Geezers". One of the finest shows out of '07.. Except for the last TWENTY minutes. My rookie attempt of an ending thou, would include the PRINCIPLE character you've been following the last hour and a half conclude his conflict with the cartel to climax with something closer to a "Miller's Crossing" rather then a bunch of old coots lamenting the FALL of AMERICA... That's a great title for a Epic! <BR/><BR/>Add that large mute idiot G Dildo winner if I must(Seriously! Is Hollyweird that desperate for the next Hannibal Lector? That character in this movie had maybe 6 lines Top! If he won it for presence, then why didn't the "Thing" from the original Halloween walk out with one as well?!) to die messily like he should of rather then the lame ass ending.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10616257833568340168noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24904037.post-49508320527866129222008-02-27T23:29:00.000-04:002008-02-27T23:29:00.000-04:00I thought of that ending because I thought Morpheu...<I>I thought of that ending because I thought Morpheus' story about using people as batteries as pretty damn lame</I><BR/><BR/>Not only that, but it violates the Second Law of Thermodynamics. I read somewhere that the original concept was that the brains of humans were used as processors for the distributed computing network which the Matrix itself existed within. That would have been much better, and (if it's true) I don't understand why they dropped the idea. I haven't seen the third part of the trilogy (if I remember correctly, I lasted about 30 seconds before I muttered something along the lines of 'screw this' and switched over to watch <I>American Pie</I> on another channel), but I imagine that your ending probably is better than the one they actually used.<BR/><BR/>Incidentally, I once met a Hare Krishna proselytiser whose approach relied entirely on me having seen <I>The Matrix</I>. The fact that I hadn't (at the time) threw him completely. He kept trying to use the movie as an example anyway, which just goes to show the value of having a 'Plan B'.<BR/><BR/>Anyway, alternative endings: I've always thought that <I>Ghost World</I> should have ended about ten minutes earlier, when Norman got on the bus. Everything that happened after that seemed redundant to me.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
