#1102 Re: The Sunset Strip » The Mist (SPOILERS) » 987 weeks ago

It's not about feeling good, because it could have ended the different ways that I had mentioned in my first post about it, that wouldn't make you feel good but you would have some sort of feeling toward the character, that feeling towards his character was created throughout the moive,  that what he did at the end was something he had to do even if the Mist left immediately, if he let the girl and son live, he then did something that made his character worth all that he fought for throughout the movie, this ending made that character and all of them so worthless after all that, after they built them up throughout the movie, makes some people feel jipped, doesn't have to be a feel good feeling but they could have ended it differently, if the Mist stayed and it ended like this, totally more acceptable.   Even if it ended like the book, would have been more acceptable, it ending with you thinking in your own mind what could have happened, thats what made the story so great, I can't see how it wouldn't have made the movie great as well.

I was looking up reviews to see what the take was on this and it's split.   Here is a Village Voice review that is exactly what I am trying to explain.

All this would be disappointing, but not infuriating, if the film's ending weren't so unforgivably bad. Darabont abruptly abandons his master's text in the movie's final minutes, sending Drayton and his little boy a plot twist that wouldn't be fair to reveal, but which is so distasteful and untrue to all that's come before it as to be a slap in the face to characters and audience alike. The last word in King's story was "hope," and while Darabont certainly has the right to head in the opposite direction'”in our own monster-filled world, happy endings are harder than ever to buy'”he does so in a manner that's both pretentious and cruel. The Mist made me want to scream, but for all the wrong reasons

It's good GN'R are still being brought up in the media in a positive way, even if this does come across as slightly embarrassing considering the album isn't out. This was the same magazine that's heard Prostitute and Atals Shrugged so I guess they're in a better position to comment than most on the album.

Looks like Classic Rock are looking to keep favour with GNR for whenever the album comes out. Someone's going to get that big first Axl interview, it seems CR are throwing their hats in the ring to get it.

I didn't even think of that, great point APE, this could quite possibly be the case.   When this album finally does drop, it will be a race to see who will get to Axl first.   It will be such a breath of fresh air to hear them all finally start talking about it.

Too bad, i'm already bored of most of the leaks.

I know what you mean, not that I am totally board but definitely would love to hear new songs.

Yeah but in the Sixth Sence, Bruce Willis acheived something, he helped the boy, even tho he was dead, his character was respected, it was dark and was shocking but it left the viewer with something for the character when it ended.   This ending left you with nothing for the characters but feeling jipped that he worked so hard only for him to kill them and be left with nothing.  The woman that killed herself, you didn't feel for throughtout the movie, these characters you did, to do that to them, all of them, blows.

I have to disagree, I think this movie was a big disappointment because of the ending, I was really enjoying it until that.

#1107 Re: The Sunset Strip » The Mist (SPOILERS) » 987 weeks ago

Okay here it goes

I really liked the movie itself, I thought it was great, took alittle from Alien, had a very Thing like feel.  I thought it was well acted and had you on edge the entire time.

The ending I felt was a jip and here's why.   There was no respect nor acheivement for any of these characters that fought so hard throughout the movie.   Had it ended where he killed everyone and the mist stayed and he was still alive, then it'd be up to you to think what happened to him, or he left the girl and kid alive because she had said how she always wanted kids and they were saved which would have been an achievement for him that he saved his son or had he killed all of them as the monsters were attacking the car and then ultimately he got killed you would have the hero feeling for him and have that he had to do it feeling.   To have it where the military who caused the problem, ultimately become the hero....BLOWS, leaves the audience with nothing.   I understand it's a doom and gloom, but there are different ways to have ended it then that.

James told me the book ending, that would have been perfect for the movie, then the audience would leave and you would have to think on your own what happened.

#1108 Re: The Sunset Strip » The Mist (SPOILERS) » 987 weeks ago

I watched it, I really liked it, thought it was great until the ending.   I won't spoil it for anyone, James knows how I feel as we were speaking on IM.   Until we are ready to put up the spoiler alert, I won't explain why.

Babe I am sorry that your marriage didn't work out.   Maybe if you tried marriage counselling, maybe you could save it but if everything is beyond repair then you both made the right decision.

#1110 Re: The Garden » Man finds condom in his burger from Burger King » 987 weeks ago

If that this is true   ewwsign.gif

It's possible that this guy could be totally lying and planted the condom himself and bit it before putting in there which he is now storing as evidence.

I am interested to see the outcome.  Unfortunately, if they cannot disprove that one of the workers didn't do it, he could defintely get money out of this.   If it's turns out to be true, then he deserves every penny that he gets because can you imagine if you bit into a used condom. :sick:
