"Mr. Hammond, after careful consideration, I've decided not to endorse your park. So have I." You're right, that whole ending checks all the boxes!

[@PhoenixCrown]

I love the ending of the Matrix. 1) It "calls" back to the very beginning, the machines listening through the phoneline. 2) It sums up the new status quo, The One is here, and things are going to be different now, and 3) It creates a wonderful stand-alone ending (that probably should have been left at that) but leaves so much room for the future of the characters and world.

[@LordBaktor]

The theatrical version of Terminator 2's ending always struck a chord with me. Not the one with old Sarah and grown up John but the one with a voice over on a dark road. "The unknown future rolls toward us. I face it, for the first time, with a sense of hope."

[@madmartigan21]

Sarah Connor: The unknown future rolls toward us. I face it, for the first time, with a sense of hope. Because if a machine, a Terminator, can learn the value of human life, maybe we can too.

[@andrewryan2814]

Loved that ending and the story as a whole when I was a kid, but as an adult understanding story structure, I realized the film did a great job turning a souless machine into the best father figure John needed to become who he was destined to be.

[@MichaelJPartyka]

Minor spoiler warning for "Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl": Johnny Depp's recitation of the pirate song lines at the end of "Pirates of the Caribbean" is a favorite bit of ending dialogue of mine because it establishes a sort of "Everything's finally good now, on to new adventures!" vibe.

[@intergalactic92]

That first film is so good from start to finish. Lightning in a Bottle.

The thing that made the Lord of The Rings trilogy great was that nobody else could have wrote it. Each of the Characters in the series was a personality that Tolkien knew from his time in the trenches. Frodo represented his struggle with ptsd, Sam the undying bond and selflessness of fellow soldiers, Aragorn a Leader that kept the men together and their fear at bay, Boromir the soldier who honored his oath and fought against all odds. There is so much from Tolkiens experience in WW1 written into tha characters that I understand now after my service than when I read it as a child that was so far over my head. Tolkien was fleshing many of his own demons out in that story and it resonated because although it was fiction, it was grounded in a dark reality.

Except Tolkien explicitly said that his work was not an allegory and especially not an allegory of the world wars.Except Tolkien explicitly said that his work was not an allegory and especially not an allegory of the world wars. Tolkien preferred what he called "applicability", the power of the reader to interpret. An allegory is fixed and has one meaning, but using the process of applicability allows the reader to create sense with their own understanding. Which is what you did, you put sense into the story, but Tolkien never wrote his book with the intention of making it a depiction of the world war. Tolkien was first and foremost inspired by ancient sagas and epics, and his whole legendarium is voluntarily archaic and old-fashioned.

Favorite ending dialogue is from "Gone With the Wind." Scarlet pleads with Rhett asking "What shall I do? Where shall I go?" and he responds "Frankly, my dear, I don't give a damn." I also like the last moment from the original "Back to the Future". Marty tells Doc there isn't enough road to get to 88 mph and Doc calmly replies "Where we're going we don't need roads."

I love how the first Godfather ended. The dialogue between Michael and Kay shows how much the characters and their relationship have changed. It's both heartbreaking and chilling.

[@BelieveInImagination]

Oh gosh I have to say James Cameron's AVATAR (1) has a brilliant tribal song & ritual calling to their deity to accept the protagonist's body into his new one. Even before that was a clever line about 'birthdays' because he would essentially be killed and reborn if the ritual works. My favourite movie hands down. Endings are quite emotional it makes you love and hate writing them.

Endings hint at new problems to come - very interesting

[@homoduplex]

Dredd: "She's a pass." Concludes the hero's journey for both Dredd and Anderson, shows how he has changed due to the adventure and gives a glimpse into the new future where she's a judge and he's less, well, judgmental, lol. Awesome movie, awesome ending. Edit: I realized it's not that good an example. The last words of the movie are some voiceover narration about the city and the work of the judges. The "She's a pass" dialogue wouldn't work as final words, I guess because they're still part of the story. They create the new situation rather than commenting on it. The narration adds some buffer between the story and the closing credits without which the ending would be too abrupt.

[@SusanModregon_WritersHopeChest]

I’d like to see you do a good and bad for specifically dialogue ending reveals. The sixth sense is a good example of just the right amount of talking to give you the reveals without overdoing it. Everyone knows Show don’t tell. But for a reveal, a certain amount of telling is often needed. The Shawshank redemption is one example of a movie that had a very successful reveal that involved a lot of talking in its ending. So I’d like you to go in detail about what works. Why do some movie reveals still work with a lot of talking? If you know of any, Show some examples of how action might have substituted for more obvious explaining moments where there was an in-depth reveal. Show what keeps a good reveal from sounding too much like exposition or too on the nose. For my money it’s emotion and surprise of the unexpected. But I’d like to see your examples how best to deliver on those two things or anything else that works…And what kind of mistakes we should avoid. - and on the subject of Shawshank, When is narration a good idea or a bad idea?

[@gnarthdarkanen7464]

First, there was NEVER anything wrong with Narration. It's just when it gets over used, leaned on like a crutch, or done poorly that creates problems... Good Narration delivers insight that you're just NOT going to get elsewhere or otherwise. When moving from a Novel to a Movie, it's how you put the intangible thoughts and emotional context to a scene where it's legitimately impossible to do better than "ambiguous reference" in the visual medium. This is NOT a crutch on which you can support piss poor acting and/or directing! 1984 "Dune", did it both well and poorly. If you read the book, the Narration helped "keep it true" but was practically unnecessary noise. If you hadn't, it was only occasionally as important as they employed it... AND on both accounts, whispering the thoughts as "bad voice over" had its own dubious effect on the whole thing. It was particularly off-set because you were invited into the thoughts of certain characters and utterly detached from others, regardless of their importance through the movie... BUT that's as much a Style question as a Quality question... Shawshank did it well, peppering in entirely Red's thoughts as he was assigned to tell the story. It didn't seem to rely on the Narration, and if left out it wouldn't suddenly become a worse movie for it, just a little less insightful or interesting. The whole rest of the aspects of cinema were employed just as well, BUT it DID contribute those insights, becoming a ubiquitous and thereby acceptable part of the film's palette. You (the audience) got a little more than was even possible to present on the screen... like Andy's occasional victories among defeats against "The Sisters"... Boggs never walking or eating solid food after his beating... and proposing the question/hope of the Warden wondering how Andy got the better of him just before he shot himself... and then the background for all that... The early hey-day of detective and spy movies in Film Noire is arguably peppered with Narration that goes both ways. It's part of the charm that we frequently parody or mock outright about the genre. Some examples help explain how the Detective-protagonist thinks, or offers insights to the villain's operations and motivation... Others use cheesy expletives and jargon more to sound like you're getting nuance or insight, but largely just adds the Narration because "that's what detective and spy movies have"... AND "The Peeper" (which WAS intended as parody) is a great example of exactly that... adding more comedy than anything... SO I'd hazard that IF you're doing a reveal that's fairly straight forward, and you don't really need any nuance to be explained... say, a betrayal for old fashioned greed, for example... THEN you don't really need any narration for it. If you have something more intense BUT requires some kind of presentation of thoughts or emotional context, then Narration can save you and the audience time and ambiguity... like all the little nuances that would've required some kind of montage EACH throughout Shawshank... Context is important and all, but it always takes time to build that Context, and time can be a very precious resource. You just want to be careful as you work it out, one way or the other, that you're not substituting the Narrative insights for something you COULD show more effectively another way... Otherwise, just remember, you're NOT going to please Everybody... someone's always going to find a flaw. ;o)

Thank you so much for making this video for me! It’s really helped considering I’m in the editing phase, of my book. I’ve never had someone make a video help me so much, so it really does help!🙂 The ending words for my book was given by the protagonist of my story, it was to convey that she no longer wanted to just avenge the people of her kingdom who died. But she now wanted to make sure “Epilism” the antagonist understood that she was sorry that the past generation of rulers on her planet kept waging war with Epilism’s planet. When the end finally did happen both my protagonist and antagonist died in a very poetic way. The antagonist “Epilism” confessed in her mind that she felt happiness once again, and “Kaguya” the protagonist confessed in her mind that it no longer felt like she was suffering but rather it felt like she finally attained freedom. There was some other stuff about the story that made the two’s end in the story seem even more interesting, but I’ve already revealed too much so I’ll stop sharing details here🙂

I always loved the last scene of Patton. The script originally called for a shot of Patton's grave in Luxembourg, with a camera pulling out to reveal him laid to rest with thousands of his soldiers. They wisely abandoned that instead for a shot of the General walking off into the countryside, telling the story of how Roman emperors returned from the wars, taking part in triumphal parades, clad in ceremonial robes, with a slave on the chariot with him, whispering the warning to him that "all glory is fleeting."

I think you could consider John Wick 2's ending a midpoint if you consider Chapter 2 part of a larger story. Therefore John Wick shooting someone on company grounds represents a shift in the direction of the story as well as a significant turning point in the character's journey.

For sure. Within the context of a series, a major decision like that can act as a big-picture midpoint and a standalone ending

I am confused as to why you say there were 10 members of the fellowship of the ring. Frodo, Sam, Merry, Pippin, Gandalf, Boromir, Aragorn, Legolas and Gimli makes only 9 members (to counter the 9 black riders, the nazgul). Do you count Gollum as a member of the fellowship? He only joined well after the fellowship broke up, and he is not a willing participant in the quest even though he has a pivotal role in it. The one person that arguably should have been a member of the fellowship is Glorfindel. He was, like Gandalf, a wielder of the flame of Anor. But his aura shone bright as a flame in the spirit world the nazgul inhabited, so he could have compromised the fellowship by being easy to spot.

I like stories that acknowledge the weight of what the character experienced. Frodo isn't going to grey havens as a reward. He's going because it's the only place he can survive the wound from the morgal blade. It's not a reward it's a hospice. When the characters go through hell ending a story on an upnote, or even worse a joke, i think it undermines the story. Have the courage to show the audience the character facing a lifetime with those memories. I apprechite a writer that does that for the story.

It's not just because of the Morgul blade, it's because he, like Bilbo, carried the ring. The ring burdened them to such extent that they could no longer bear it.
