Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides. I hate how Phillip's fate is left unanswered after he is pulled down by the mermaid Syrena. Jerry Bruckheimer explains in the special features he left it up to us to decide his fate, you can have whatever fate you want to believe. 😒

For Inception, the top was wobbling right as they cut to the credits. That ONLY happens when it's about to tip over and stop. That was answering that he was finally back in the right universe with his family.

Also: Was a crazy religious lady in The Mist movie (Spoilers next!) actually NOT crazy but right all along about the main heroes’ son’s sacrifice to stop it all (and that’s why the army at the end of the movie appears AFTER he kills his son) or it was all just an unfortunate coincidence and he should’ve waited for salvation one minute more and not be in such a rush to kill his son altogether with all other characters in the car??

Given the storylines of 'Blade Runner' and 'Blade Runner 2049', I find it much more satisfying to think of Deckard as human.

Riggan jumps to his death. His daughter has the same mental health issues as him, that's why she "sees" him flying.

I saw a movie in the theater called the kings tide and the ending to that movie was so strange and unexplainable I found it confusing indeed

2:21 it's "Alejandro Gonzalez Iñarrritu" not "Alejandro Iñarritu"

I always thought Travis imagined the ending of Taxi Driver. That he made himself the hero.
