Fool………..EVERYONE knows when you shoot yourself in the jaw you shake out the second, hostile personality! In three faces of Eve, she shot herself in the jaw TWICE.

I offer my ass for kicking, ’cause the Fight Club ending is a cop-out, plain & simple. How the protag solved or cured himself of anything by shooting himself in the jaw (apparently the exact spot in his body where his split personality existed) is beyond me. Cop-Out.

To give you an idea of how sadly cliche the dream move has gotten, when I saw “ROTK” in the theater and Frodo wakes up safe in bed after destroying the ring, a boy sitting in front of us, probably five or six years old, turned to his father and asked: Was it all a dream? In a voice like he’d just been robbed.

Even toddlers can feel dissatisfied with twist endings.

Sophistication has its merits, but sometimes I long for the days when movies could be worth watching without obligatory twist endings. Although, my favorite one was “The Wizard of Oz”. The first time I saw it, I thought, “Oh my god — it was all a dream? No way!”

The Sixth Sense ruined The Others for me. I loved the movie, thought it was really spooky, but I was on the lookout for the twist.

“I’m still here, chief.” — Frequency. The last word on why twist endings suck.

I thought the first rule of Fight Club is that we don’t talk about the ending of Fight Club.
