The problem with this one for me is that Bill Murray would never have   
   answered the hotel room door and hurt the feelings of the girl he was   
   falling in love with,~this was mean to say the least and his character   
   was not mean......he wasn't even attracted to the redhead~..... doesn't   
   work for me....   
      
   he should have had an affair with the younger girl~seems like what I   
   would have done if that character~.   
       
      
      
      Movies Ruined by Their Endings   
   1. "Lost In Translation"~not even close~Bill Murray would never have   
   gone off the with red headed singer and hurt the girl's   
   feeling that he   
   was falling in love with ~ out of Character~and should not have left   
   Japan When he did ~and last parts of movie ruined the whole meaning and   
   the movie.....not true to characters~but funny first part, for sure...   
   ~   
   2." Titanic" still don't want to see the movie again because Kate   
   Winslet's lover Leo Dicaprio   
   drowned in such a unpleasant fashion in the icy water and ruined the   
   film after all he went through to get both of them off the   
   boat. ~great   
   song   
   ~   
   3."Gladiator" hated ending where he, Russell Crowe, dies   
   after all the   
   trouble to get rid of the Roman King. wanted him to go off with the   
   beautiful Queen Connie Nielsen.   
   ~   
   4. "Proof of Life" wanted Meg Ryan to go off with Russell   
   Crowe instead   
   of her "husband"   
   ~   
   5." Star Wars " where Liam Neesom gets killed instead of bad guy.   
   6.others   
   ~   
   7.Why don't the movie Critics give more honest reviews about   
   films?~sometimes they must just want their names on the   
   boxes~but rent   
   the movies and it's hardly thumbs up~

   Seems that you only like happy endings. Imagine if Casablanca had a   
   "happy" ending with Bogart getting on the plane with Ingrid Bergman at   
   the end. It wouldn't have been half the film it is. I think that "sad"   
   endings are often much more uplifting, real and moving.   
   Take "lost in translation" for example. I disagree with you, I think the   
   ending was very touching and that the Murray (Bob) and Johansson   
   (Charlotte) stayed perfectly in character. One reason why it is touching   
   is that it seems real. We get what we want when Bob spots Charlotte from   
   the cab, runs after her and holds her. They show each other their true   
   feelings, after the rather awkward (but realistic I think) goodbye in   
   the hotel lobby. It would admittedly have been a bit too bleak without   
   that scene.
