Anyone else remember the alternate ending to "Big"?

It can be seen from Mars. And it will be on your tombstone.

But what will my tombstone actually say?

Keep the alternate ending to “Big” in your hearts
even if it only existed in your mind.

Here again is the ending that people are swapping in their minds, inserting it into Big.

Bumping this, due to an amazing Sinbad discovery from yesterday!

(Please note what date I posted this post on.)

Didn’t we see that before?
:wink:

… No? Now I need to check what universe I’ve drifted into again, because I’m pretty sure I posted to a post about a College Humor video, not a completely video free article about the controversy that inspired the gag.

Oh, I now love Sinbad with a passtion.

Penny Marshall needs to find some kids and film the alternate ending to Big. With a picture of Nelson Mandela’s early funeral hanging it the classroom.

And a copy of The Berenstein Bears.

Mahaloth,
I only read the first and last page of this post but I just saw the ending for Big and was telling my wife that everyone I know don’t believe me but there was a different ending I remember. I described it to her and then while trying to search to prove it I ran into this thread. You described it exactly the way I remembered it. I saw the clip for 13 going on 30 and I never saw this movie. I feel that you and I are correct. This is the first and probably only thread post I will ever give but I felt compelled to respond to this one.

So like every 2 or 3 months then, this thing claws itself from the depths?

It’s the 1988 movie 14 Going on 30 that gets confused with Big, not the 2004 movie 13 Going on 30.

I think I know what’s going on with all of these alternate endings and misremembered scenes and stuff.
It’s SkyNet and his damned Terminators jacking with the timelines.

At least you’re honest.

…but still wrong.

Thanks. :hugs:

Uh, you do know that long ago, I realized there is no alternate ending to Big? It didn’t exist.

Probably not helping by adding any more to this, but…

I didn’t read the thread, and I never saw the movie, however: going by the size of this thread, my money’s on that it was a highly controversial film.

If we keep this thread alive long enough, they’re eventually going to a remake of *Big *with a different ending.

Every time I see this thread pop up, I’m secretly hoping that I (and many others) have been proven wrong, and finally an incontrovertible clip of the alternate ending has finally surfaced its way to the internet but, alas, each time I’m sorely disappointed.
