Speaking of Clint, how about the ending of Sudden Impact(?). When the bad guys see the silhouette of Dirty Harry in the carnival lights with the huge auto-mag.......totally cool.

A very old movie, To Kill a Mockingbird. Not wuite the ending but . . .

The poor black guy has been convicted of a rape he didn't do. Gregory Peck (atticus) gathers his papers. Walks out. His daugher sitting in the Court Room balcony with the Black preacher, wo says: "Stand up chile thats' your father passing."

Obviously not a fan of movies--how could you omit "Chinatown"?

My favorite ending was "The Game" with Michael Douglas and Sean Penn. That was great.

Arlington Road comes to mind. Totally unexpected.

[quote="endofthewor1d"][quote="swetepete"] also, even if they did blow up the buildings, i'm sure that major credit card companies have their data backed up in secret places somewhere.

I disagree. There are often holes in the systems the gov. and companies create.

9/11 and the way it was pulled off so easily proves this.

A drug smuggling ring in Mexico that simply used Fed X to ship big boxes of marijuana to the U.S. proves this.

People have sucessfully hacked into the White House's computers shows this.

It just takes some out of the box thinking to successfully pull stuff off.

Se7en

The only ending that still gets me. Shawshank had a good one, I still like it. Other endings dont have the impact on me anymore but Ive seen Se7en 6 times and even if I know whats coming it still shocks me.

I liked the 1966 version of Alfie and its ending. He is back to where he starts and hasn't changed in any way. Great movie. Shawshank gets my vote though because of the good feeling you get. I like any movie ending that has a twist that I don't catch on to. Six Sense was ruined for me, but Unbreakable wasn't. The Road Warrior had a good ending. That long scene where they try to get the tanker was great.
