Wait, was that the ending?

[tucci]

Stephen King's book "Cell" made me cringe. Don't get me wrong, most of King's books end up with that to be continued? But this one just went (and I'm not joking) "Wake up Jakey (or whatever the son's name was), it's your daddy."

Beh

When Dumbledore dies.

I already read the books but that is just inconsiderate to someone who has not read the books and plans to.

OT: I can't really think of anything right now, though I might later.

 

[Amethyst Wind]

Philip Pullman's His Dark Materials trilogy. Not so much the ending as the story after about half way through the third book. It just falls apart and I was like "Really? That's it? All that build up, for THAT?". After 2 excellent books and more than its fair share of hype it was just massively disappointing.

What about the godawful film they made? Seriously, for the ending to THAT they decide to take out the entire climactic ending of the book and save it for the next film, while having the movie ending be nothing more than a literal fade-to-black, seriously, there is no fucking ending! It just stops!

I haven't read the books in a while but I remember quite liking the books, I remember the very ending of the last book, and the last 4 words spoken "The Republic of Heaven", but not much besides that, oh except the names of Will and Lyra's Daemons.

A bad book ending from a bad book is John Steinbeck's The Grapes of Wrath, it's a crap read the entire way through but the ending does, as Yahtzee puts it, come out of nowhere like a fucking cockslap.

Bad game ending, bad game ending......Oh, I was gonna say Crackdown as well but I'll see your Crackdown and Raise you Too Human. I was expecting a lot more hours of gameplay than that.

1984....its like WTF!! i kinda just sat there with my mouth hanging open when i read those 4 final words of the book...
Also the ending to kotor 2

Spoiler

{the ship just kinda flies away and your left sitting there like...its over?}

I agree with both. I just finished 1984 for school and it was...interesting. I also agree with kotor 2.

 

[high_castle]

I've come across a few.

Spoiler: Dragon Venom by Lawerence Watt-Evans

This one puzzled me. It was the third book in a trilogy which had been really good and different, and it just felt like the author got tired. In a series where the character's actions mattered, the books stank of Deus Ex Machina. Worse, after establishing its internal logic in the previous books, this volume pulls a 180 and changes everything without explanation. I think he was trying to write a twist ending, but it just came off like an ass pull.

Spoiler: Assassin's Creed

It came out of nowhere. So...you face down the big bad, recover the piece of Eden and then...nothing. What? I know there's a sequel, but the dev team didn't know if there would be. Zero resolution in an otherwise decent title.

That pretty much the premise of LoK:SR and its so everything makes sense at the end....
sorta

 

[Canadamus Prime]

Or maybe the end of dragon ball GT(yes I know, GT was not good compared to DB/DBZ). I was like wtf, no more?

Really? I thought that ending was great. I felt closure after seeing that ending. After all, all good things must come to an end.

 

[Tanfastic]

The end of gears of war made me mad "Oh so now that bomb went off, all good right? NOPE there's more lolol!"

 

[Silver]

Oh! Oh! I am legend. The ending shown in theatres.

I mean, seriously, what the fuck? You just invalidated half the movie, disregarded everything you've built up to this whole time, and just turned an amazing movie (with the correct ending), to a random piece of very bad hollywood action.

 

[soul_rune1984]

Oblivion. Martin dies and......OK, so now what? Did they expect me to run around and explore caves for no reason afterward?

 

[captainwillies]

the ending of the claymore anime.

i have yet to see a more infuriating ending.

Spoiler

the whole story had been working up to the main character killing this awakened being, and first of all they didn't do it, and secondly they then left with saying effectively: this has a conclusion somewhere, but fuck you. i've never seen anything as vague as they managed to make that ending in my life.

read the manga when i watched the anime it made me rage because THATS NOT THE ENDING. they actually changed what happened in the "War in the North Saga" which effected the ending. i suppose its because they only had a budget big enough for only 26 episodes that they were forced to do that. same goddamn thing happened to Hellsing.

Spoiler: Just to clear up the ending to 1984..............

Winston finally succumbs to O'Brien's brain washing. He becomes his own worst enemy, by ratting out Julia and rejoicing that Oceania has "won the war with East Asia".

I did not understand the ending to Great Expectations by Charless Dickens. I know what Pip did to himself, but the ending is still weird nonetheless

 

[KamachoMcSagget]

No Country for Old Men.
No More Heroes also, but I think it was made that way on purpose.

 

[Sgtkillalot0]

I did not see the ending for The Passion of the Christ coming, i mean WOW....who would have guessed...

EDIT: If someone could teach me make those spoiler boxes it would be great...

 

[Zurrag]

I'd have to say out of all of the movies or games, Assassin's Creed and Knowing have to be the worst, people who've seen Knowing will know why, I should think.

 

[captainwillies]

The absolute weirdest and most confusing ending I've ever seen has to be The Neon Genesis: Evangelion movie.

WTF HAPPENED!!!

depending on which DVD release you saw ether

1. they all died

2. they all died

the ending is "supposed" to be ambigious...i think.

but then again apparently the guy who wrote the series was on acid.

 

[ssgt splatter]

The ending to CoD 4. At first I was like HUH? But only recently when the first trailers for MW2 came out did I realise that the epiloge was a possible peek at the story line of MW2. Since the first trailers for MW2 had hints of taking place in an airport at some point it really cleared it up for me.

 

[Emperor Inferno]

The Legendary ending of Halo 3, just because it leaves the ending open, I mean, what is that planet they were headed towards?

 

[ReZerO]

2001 .... the movie's ending made no sense unless you have read the book.
