I’m not particularly adverse to spoilers. I propose a walk on the wild side and and have a thread with nothing but spoilage in all its forms. That and I’m waiting for my wife to get off for our Christmas plans.

After this post there will be no warning. Clicking in this thread constitutes acceptance of all terms.

I’ll go first:

**Empire Strikes Back:** “Luke, I am your father.” _Whirrrr Psssst._

**No Country for Old Men:** Llewelyn gets killed 5/6ths of the way through.

**Serenity:** Wash get’s killed.

Mickey Rourke dies in the ring at the end of _The Wrestler_.

In _Doubt_, Meryl Streep gets Philip Seymore Hoffman to leave the school by telling him she knows why he left his last church. After he leaves, she admits that she lied about having talked to the nuns at his last church and that she has doubts.

**Critical1** is right about Will Smith in **Seven Pounds**. He killed seven people in a car accident including his wife, so he finds 7 worthy people to repay “7 pounds of flesh,” then kills himself and leaves his organs (for one person, he leaves his house, though).

Clint Eastwood gets killed by the gangbangers at the end of _Grand Torino_.

Fry is Lars.

Potter saves the Stone, indirectly killing Flanel and his wife. Potter saves the girl by killing a diary. Sirius didn’t kill Peter but he wanted too. Wormtail kills Cedric. Bellatrix kills Sirius. Snape kills Dumbledore. Nagini kills Snape. The good guys win and despite everything that should cause long-lasting PTSD, live their life in the manner of a cheesy epilogue

The Voyager gets home to the Alpha Quadrant.

Obama won.

On the fictional West Wing John Spencer dies after becoming the Veep nominee. Toby Zeigler gave the secret to the extra space shuttle and the president pardons him. CJ marries the red headed guy from the press corps after becoming Chief of Staff during the president’s second term. Donna Moss finally sleeps with Josh Lyman who joins the Santos campaign. Moss becomes Mrs. Santos’s Chief of Staff. Charlie goes to Georgetown Law. Mrs. Landingham gets killed in a car crash but shows up on Desperate Housewives.

Jesus gets better.

Everybody dies. Narnia is destroyed, but all the characters you like are happy in the Real Narnia/Earth… except Susan- who knows how she’ll end up?

Frodo almost falls prey to the Ring. Gollum fights him for it & plunges to death with it. Frodo & Sam return, lead a revolt against Saruman, restore the Shire to Aragorn’s Kingdom, and eventually F & the Elves sail off to Heaven.

Arthur falls to Mordred & he is taken for burial (?) to Avalon by the Women, from where he shall someday return.

**Lobohan,** too bad you didn’t start this thread earlier. I could’ve gotten you [this t-shirt](http://www.threadless.com/product/844/Spoilt#zoom) as a Christmas gift.

Anyway:

Norman Bates and his mother share the same mental space.

Chief Dudley Smith was behind everything.

Kevin Costner was the spy.

Morrison never told you which girl was black and which was white. You just assumed. (Actually, that isn’t even in the story.)
