Movie Endings: Devious or Dangerous? Journal 6 Revised
Hollywood does everything it can to make as much money as they possibly can. Hollywood typically has a recipe to is success. Pleasing audiences normally follows that specific recipe, if filmmakers are wise they generally stick to the recipe. This recipe normally starts bliss, followed by a criss, a climax, some sort of battle or confrontation and then ends with a satisfying conclusion. The one thing that Hollywood does very well is ending movies with a satisfying ending, if they fail to do so movies normally become busts. Having a good ending leaves audiences feeling good and satisfied, not mad and leaves many questions. Ending are one of the most complicated things in the movie industry because endings can sometimes led to controversy. Sometimes endings can be a source of controversy when books are made into movies. Many people do not like when the ending changes from the book, making the movie very different from the book. The questions arises should movies be allowed to change endings to please audiences? The new movie Breaking Dawn alters major moments at the end of the movie to please audiences. Pleasing audiences is one thing but change someone else's work can potentially be crossing the line. I do not have a problem with filmmakers trying to please an audience but I do think that switching movies is potentially disastrous. Fans go to the movies expecting to see one thing but instead are met with something completely different. Even though changing the ends to movies can please audiences I think that movies that are based off books should be left alone.
