DVD movies with alternate endings...
OK, I'm going off on a tangent here...BIGTIME!
What is it with DVD movie releases that market
themselves with the boast that they come with
alternate endings?!?!? THIS IS NOT SOMETHING
TO BRAG ABOUT.
Essentially, a movie has several different endings because
it was screened for a preview audience who said "the story
sucked and the ending was stupid/ confusing/ unbelieveable".
For a studio to lay out the extra $$$ to write and shoot a new ending
means there is serious trouble with the picture.
"The Forgotten" has an alternate ending. As does "Dreamcatcher"
and the list goes on.
I just find it amazing that what starts as a negative somewhere
along the way becomes a "positive". People can market ANYTHING.
End of rant.
