Isn’t it obvious? She things don’t work out with any school nor she can’t find a job, and she’s about to be evicted from her apartment. So she decides being dead is better than homeless and throws herself in front of the bus she left town on. The End.
Hey Barry, if I remember correctly, didn’t Godzilla vs. Monster Zero have a similar ending? Godzilla, Rodan, and Ghidrah all take a tumble into the sea, and only Ghidrah emergies (flying away yet again, what a pussy). And we never see Godzilla or Rodan emerge?
Oh, and I’m a big fan of the site! \m/
Memento Only it has you wondering what happened before the beginning as well as after the end. Or maybe I mean after the beginning as well as before the end. Or… you know what I mean.
Re: King Kong vs Godzilla
Somewhere along the line, I got the idea that Big G followed the Big Bananahead back to his island submarine style, and then made him into monkey kebobs.
Call it a half-assed “Monster Island Origin Story.” 
Errrr… No, I don’t think so. Rodan and Godzilla simply chased Ghidrah away. It was kind of a lame ending, since Ghidrah wasn’t destroyed and could come back anytime he wanted I suppose.
Thanks!
Barry
and it didn’t quite ring true did it? This is Bond we’re talking about, eats, roots, shoots and leaves, he doesn’t get all doey eyed abour ex lovers.
The Breakfast Club. No, really.
Why do you think everyone was bouncing up and down when they heard the rumour that Judd Nelson would be reprising the part of John Bender in Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back?
Any horror movie I’ve ever seen. One (maybe two) people walk out of a place where 5,000 people are dead with a insane story about a ghost/demon/serial killer killing everyone then not leaving a body when he was stopped. Yeah right I’m sure the cops buy that…
ps, I realize some horror movie sequels have the main character from the last movie in an insane asylum but that’s usually b/c they had a mental breakdown not b/c they were charged with the murders.
Murdering a heap of folk in gruesome fashion and then unshakeably claiming it was a supernatural killer is usually grounds for commitment.

Are you of the school of justice that reads “You were there, you must be guilty”? Survivors of such incidents are often wounded and/or hysterical. They’re not likely to be charged.
Exactly, Swagman, it was so out of character for Bond. Plus the one time he did marry in the films, it was ended before it started really. So Bond is not the kind of guy to enter into an affair with any illusion of it turning into a lasting relationship.
Evil Death,
Whoa take your horror movies a little seriously? I love horror movies but don’t you ever wonder what the aftermath is like?
“umm yeah I had to break into this guys house and ram a stake through his heart b/c it was a vampire who was seducing my girlfriend into becoming one too.”
And I don’t appreciate your assumption that I’M the type that would accuse someone that survived a horrorible event I’m just saying I doubt the cops wouldn’t try to charge someone with SOMETHING when there’s mass destruction/death.
I can’t for the life of me remember the title, but I did rent a particularly bad horror movie in 2001 about people staying at a house that had a gateway to hell in the basement. Several people die, and two survive. Then you read in the little afterwards text that they were immediately arrested after reporting the deaths, and executed for the murder of the people the demons killed. It was a nice twist to a really bad movie.
Although inferior overall, Son of Kong, the sequal to King Kong addressed this. The sequal opens with Carl Denham in hiding from the process servers because of all the people suing the living daylights out of him. The final straw is that the NY district attorney’s office has put out a warrent for his arrest on multiple counts of negligent manslaughter, and Denham has to flee the country.
Return of the Jedi: the Emperor is Dead, so is Vader. But that means it is all over and everything reverts back to a Republic? All the Imperial Fleet & Army stand down & the Rebels are no longer wanted?
ET: were Eliot & family & boyz whisked off to a military base, put through grueling interogations? Threatened with death if they breathed a word? Or maybe bribed : given college scholarships for discussing all they knew?
I loved one of the deleted scenes from AUSTIN POWERS I because it addressed something that’s always bugged me about Bond and other super-action-hero movies: they’ve just blown away 50 guys, which means that there are now more than 100 widows and orphans running around. (In the deleted scene, for those who haven’t seen it
an attractive young housewife is on the phone telling a friend that “Mike’s a henchman for Dr. Evil now” and how proud she is because the family’s tough financial times are over. Then she gets the call that he’s been killed by Powers and she has a Florida Evans’ “Damn! Damn! Damn!” moment.
Movies I’ve wondered about:
SMOKEY AND THE BANDIT- Buford T. Justice couldn’t catch Bandit, but he has his license plate number (ergo his name, address, etc.) and his physical description. He can testify and has witnesses to about 342 different interstate crimes including vandalism, destruction of state and federally owned property, resisting arrest, etc.- why doesn’t he just call the FBI and have Bandit picked up and jailed for life?
TITANIC- Rose’s mother was desperate for her marriage because it was her only salvation from utter ruin- did Cal provide for her anyway or did she end up as the night cashier at the first Stuckeys? Rose became an actress on stage and in silent films- didn’t anybody who knew her as Rose Bukater ever recognize her as Rose Dawson and alert the media (“STARLET IS ACTUALLY SOCIALITE PRESUMED DEAD ON TITANIC” would seem to have been a desirable headline)? And did the captain/crew just say “well screw it, that’s that…” to her story of the diamond and call off the whole multimillion dollar expedition? (And hijack, but I still say that if I saw my grandma throw a $50 million necklace into the ocean, she’s a goin’ in after it.)
ARMAGEDDON- instead of one really big asteroid, you now have [billions and billions* of little asteroids. Doesn’t this still rake hell on Earth?
GROUNDHOG DAY- what does he do when he starts getting the huge bills for the insurance that he bought for Bill? If he robbed the Brinks truck on his last Groundhog Day, does he face prosecution for that? Does he wake up on the day-after-the-day-after Groundhog Day and find out that it’s the day-after Groundhog Day all over again?
INDIANA JONES AND THE LAST CRUSADE- Indie, his dad, Sallah and Marcus escaped the bad guys. Now they’re in the middle of a desert without food or water and on horseback surrounded by the soldiers of a corrupt king in league with the Nazis. How do they make it out of that one?
Re: SOUND OF MUSIC- the real von Trapp family (about 16 people in all- the Baron, Maria, their 9 1/2 children [seven by his first wife, twin daughters by Maria, and an unborn son] and some loyal servants) simply took a train out of Austria, so there weren’t nuns involved in their escape. The real Maria von Trapp said of the movie SOUND OF MUSIC “It’s a beautiful and inspiring story. It just doesn’t happen to be mine.”
In the film storyline, I’m guessing the nuns had to flee to a convent in South America where in the tradition of Maria they later had a zany young novice who could fly.
Apparently it had something to do with him being a nasty person, so once he stopped being like that, the loop was broken and (Presumably) doesn’t restart anew.
I got the idea that most of the soldiers/nazis were killed and the king might not have cared about a few Americans escaping, even if he knew about them. I also got the idea that there wasn’t much of an alliance rather then the nazis “renting” out military equipment and rights of passage for the purpose of the expedition. I get the idea that the kingdom of “Hatay” was not Nazi Germany, so it’s not like ever police officer in every town is going to be looking for them.
Also, It may be in the desert, but it was also getting dark at the end, so they have until sunrise to get to town, which might have only been 20-30 miles( I didn’t see any supply/fuel/ammo trucks for that convoy, so that implies supplies/fuel were relatively close by)
Though I could ask how Indy got off the Island with the Ark near the end of Raiders of the lost Ark.
Does he rob the truck on that last day or just on a couple of the first 10 or so trips through the cycle. Later he seemed more concerned with improving personality/life then getting easy money.
Okay, I realize it’s kind of the -point- of the movie, but… Blair Witch Project. I watched that damn thing all the way through, rather liked it, then… Bam. Camera falls. The end. I literally stood up from my chair (luckilly this was not in a movie theater) and shouted, “WHAT?! I waited two hours for THAT CR*P?!”
Still bugs me.
Considering that Sheriff Justice followed the Bandit out of his own jurisdiction across several states, defied the orders of law enforcement officials in those other jurisdictions, broke many laws himself during the pursuit, and endangered the lives of many law enforcement officers and countless civilians in the process, he’s lucky he’s not in jail himself. Besides Big and Little Enos could always use their power, money, and influence to smooth things over and make any charges against the Bandit disappear, in exchange for yet another run or as part of yet another double or nothing bet.
How pathetic and tired am I to try to explain away stuff from Smokey And The Bandit?
