To be fair, that didn't really end, that was just cancelled.

Anything with pure, raw, deus ex machina.

Not Chekov's gun, not fridge brilliance.

Avatar: The Last Airbender comes to mind.
You mean the whole spirit bending spiel?

What else? Erm... Bridge to Terrabithia? Ok I know the entire film is crap, but the ending just sucked.
And generally anything that ends with an 'it was all just a dream' type scenario.
Yes, Bridge to happy crappy land over deadly SMALL ravine was... no words. It was utter shite. I actually felt, for the first, like demanding my money back, for a movie I watched for around $2,2.

"To be continued..."

Closely followed by

"Oh, it was just a dream/alternate universe/hallucination"

Anything where the hero beats impossible odds and they all live happily ever after.
You would prefer the hollow victory?
Or the crushing defeat?
Or how 'bout we win but suddenly aliens wreck your shit?

Crysis, not because the ending was inherently bad, though it did suffer from "sequel set up" syndrome.... but because the second one didnt touch on it at all... what happened to nomad and the scientists and everyone else, all we see is somehow prophet got into a bunch of crap that your now thrown into

Don't get me wrong I loved both games but argh that tics me off!

Inception. All we needed was 2 more seconds of film!
Actually, the reason Inception ended then and there was to invite contemplation. The viewer wonders what would have happened next, and in doing so, goes over the details of the film again in his or her head. But it's only really after the second viewing that things start to click in place.

When you look at the scenario as a whole, you realize something: the entire movie was spent one layer deep. The only time you were seeing reality was in the clips of Dom's wife jumping off the balcony. Think about it. Miles says at the beginning of the movie 'Come back to reality, Dom'. Dom is pursued around the globe by faceless corporations and private security, just like projections chase an intruder. Then we move on to Ariadne. She was an entirely one-sided character who spent all her time prodding and driving at Dom's deeply hidden secrets, without any proper motivation. This is because she's, effectively, a bot. A program that Miles planted in Dom's brain to force him to come to terms with his wife's death, even though the legalities had already been handled in reality. Also, Ariadne was the one that gave Theseus the ball of yarn in the Greek Minotaur myth, helping him escape the labyrinth with his life. The end of the movie with Dom arriving at the airport and meeting Miles again was a metaphor; he could come home again, because his conscious is free. He's confronted his demons, and can look at his children's faces again without guilt.

Now, go back to that scene. The top spinning on the table. Does it fall, or does it keep spinning? The truth is it doesn't matter. The only totem ever created OUTSIDE the dream was Mal's top, and Dom knew that inside and out, so when Miles brought him into the dream, the totem came in as well. The rest of the characters, copies of people Dom knew in real life, built their totems inside the dream, and information created within the dream is persistent, like in reality, so the totems would behave as if the dream were reality.

Bloody hell, I just hopelessly confused myself. If you have any questions, just ask and I'm sure I can make this seem plausible XD

The Sopranos - cut to black mid sent-

Lost - they're all dead and what you saw was purgatory or some shit, wtf?

Army of Two TFD - shoot your friend or i nuke the city, oops, i lied about the nuke

Battlefield Bad Company 2 - YAY! we saved America!! Get back to work! dude, let them have a break, do you know what they went through?

TES 4 Oblivion - just to make this absolutely clear, the ending to the story was good, what I found to be irritating was the lack of an epic battle at the end. I went in there expecting to fight Dagon, or at least an army of his minions to protect Martin as he does a ritual, but no, you just spectate the whole thing while standing in the corner like a child that was sent to time out and not allowed to get involved.

Fable 3 - either you do good things as ruler and everyone dies, or you do evil things and everyone lives, but you're not allowed to undo the evil things after the danger is gone? (I think Yahtzee talked about this on Zero Punctuation)

GTA 4 The Lost and Damned - After all that I did to keep the club alive, I just burn the clubhouse down? kinda makes everything up to the last mission seem pointless

Every Dr. Who cliffhanger. Especially season finale cliffhanger's. For which we must wait several months, to resolve.
And this is why I wait a year and buy the DVD collections when they come out. Doctor Who, no unresolved cliffhangers included ^-^

Fallout 3's pre-broken steel ending, with power armour and rad-x the radiation in that damned chamber was far from lethal (2 rads per second if I remember correctly), you expect me to believe that the fucking radiation of all things killed me? I know this was meant to be a big martyr and all but this kind of drama only works when you know the death is really necessary... and come to think of it, this was a water purifier where in the name of God did that amount radiation come from? Did they decontaminate the water with fucking uranium?
Forget power armour and rad-x. there is a companion who is a ghoul, thus immune to radiation, and when I took him there he refused to do it

I wanted all the main characters to die since Rowling killed all the fun characters earlier

Every Pokemon game ever. You beat the elite four, then you get to sit through like 5 minutes of credits that you can't skip, and finally the game says "thanks for playing" and goes back to the title screen. Bullshit.

Actually the whole point of the film was that the main character had stopped caring if he were in a dream or not. The movie did not run out of film/money, that ending was what they wanted.

When something weird has been going on the entire game and it's never properly explained so you are left with no closure.
Psycho-horror games do this all the time and I'm cool with it as long as it becomes clear what was going on eventually.
I hate it when they leave you hanging like:: "wait, sooo it WAS a dream? Or it wasn't? But than how is his hand still bleeding? So was he just fighting figments of his nightmares or were there really monsters? And did he just kill himself or did he exit the dream? gaaaaah!"
