Did anyone watch The Mist?

[Shell Beau]

The ending was just lovely wasn't it?

[AllegroRondo]

1. it was a bit different from the book

but not bad

[Shell Beau]

2. Yeah, a friend of mine told me about the book. The movie ending sounds

a little worse.

[devilgrrl]

3. I read the story 25 years ago.

I heard that the ending sucked ass. Say? Did they put an alternate ending on the DVD?

[Shell Beau]

4. The ending was different than the book.

Don't want to ruin it for you.

[devilgrrl]

5. I already know how the film ends and yes, it's different than the story.

But I heard that they filmed an alternate ending that's just like the book...

Any truth to that?

[Shell Beau]

6. Not sure. Didn't check out the dvd extras. I guess I was too

disturbed by the ending.

[devilgrrl]

7. They should have ended the film like the story, it was just as disturbing if not more.

Why the need for shock? :thumbsdown:

[HiFructosePronSyrup]

9. There wasn't an ending in the story.

It just kept going. I'm not sure if that would have translated as well to film.

[devilgrrl]

10. But you'd leave the theater fovever wondering...

just like "No Country for Old Men"

[HiFructosePronSyrup]

15. Ever see the movie "Limbo?"

Very unsatisfying.

[devilgrrl]

17. No. How about 'Pan's Labyrinth'?

:P

[HiFructosePronSyrup]

18. Highly overrated.

The few small fantasy scenes are clever. But the movie itself stunk.

Del Toro's "The Devil's Backbone" and "The Orphanage" were both superior.

8. We watched it a few weeks ago.

Yeah, the ending was Fucked Up, but I enjoyed it. It reminded me of the ending to Night of The Living Dead.

[Shell Beau]

11. I would have thrown myself in front of those tanks had I been that man.

12. *spoiler*

boom boom boom boom


AAAUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU!!!



(I laughed a little on the inside)

[Shell Beau]

13. Oooh!!

:spank:

[Blue-Jay]

19. I laughed on the outside!

I like Fucked Up endings.

[DS1]

23. Just had an idea

Re-shoot that scene, but with the Peanuts gang, and Charlie Brown is the one doing the shooting and




:rofl:

[ScreamingMeemie]

14. I was mad...

One, the book ended with at least hope (when they heard the Portand radio station) and there was no need to do that in the movie. I was shaken for days afterward.

[Shell Beau]

16. It was rough. I couldn't imagine doing what he did. I would have

if I were in his situation, I think, but to see help right after.... :scared:

[kentauros]

24. I never read the story, and I haven't seen the movie

but I have a cassette tape copy of the ZBS binaural radioplay of The Mist and it's pretty damn scary, expecially in 3D audio :)

Now, I remember the ending on that with them hearing on the radio "Hartford" not Portland. But, it still has the same "leave you hanging" ending :)

I wouldn't mind knowing the ending of the movie since I simply don't watch that kind of horror movie (I still prefer the likes of "The Haunting", 1963 version.)

[underpants]

20. Actually

I mist it

[Shell Beau]

21. You're so punny!

:P

[montanto]

22. Yes,

I was so glad it was over. I'll never watch another.
