There are two types of people in this world. There are those that have no problem with things being left unresolved.
(slow clap)
SwedishYouthHumanist But, but who's the other type? I need to know. Now. Please? TELL ME YOU SON OF A BITCH!
this comment is so unnerving to me. I know its a joke, i even know the answer. But it pisses me off that its unfinished
SwedishYouthHumanist you are my hero!
SwedishYouthHumanist fuck you
Unbreakable will be solved... 2019 brings us Glass (Unbreakable and Split sequel)
just wanted to write this =)
Also, Mr. Fragile is actually called Mr. Glass in the United States.
I'm so looking forward to this movie!
Boi was that solved poorly
His name is Mr Glass, do you even watch movies?!
JD1010101110 Not only that, He spends several minutes explaining his motivations to Bruce Willis' character. Basically, he was looking for his arch nemesis by trying to find someone who was his opposite. He was supremely fragile, so he was looking for someone Unbreakable.
JD1010101110
Good angle.
It's the LAST LINE: "They called me Mr. Glass."
or they could have taken two seconds to google the damn name as well
bet you guys feel dumb about mentioning unbreakable after Split came out
Especially since the "cliffhanger" they mention wasn't really a cliffhanger at all, we do know Mr. Glass' motivation, to find his opposite and live out his comic book fantasy, and he does, it's made very clear that they are polar opposites and that finding him and molding him into a superhero was his endgame, and there is never any mention of any other "unbreakables", it is mentioned that he is the only one that Mr. Glass ever found.
Zykthyr R Also there's a further sequel on it's way
I know..it's like someone told the guy about the basic plot of unbreakable, while he was watching the series finale of Buffy and had just watched the Incredibles the night before and while making this video, combined the three in his head.
You're just realising Whatculture is a VERY average entertainment channel.
The Godzilla did get a sequel as a Saturday Morning cartoon on Fox.
and that was not even that bad
I was about to say the same thing, just wanted to see if anyone beat me too it. Awesome show, WAAAAAAAY better than the movie and a bit closer to "real" Godzilla movies. It was an awesome show, Zilla Jr. is second only to Godzilla himself in my list of favorite Kaiju
The series also had an homage to the classic Toho Godzilla film Destroy All Monsters. In a trilogy of episodes known as the Monster Wars aliens launch a plan to take over the world by controlling a large number of monsters the shows characters had captured along the course of the series. Sending them all over the earth destroying various cities. Similar to the plot of Destroy All Monsters.
Also during the trilogy it is revealed that the parent Godzilla from the movie is still alive as a cyborg.
blazingsonic it was on netflix for a while to
+Kid Chaos 64 never forget that the american godzilla got slaughtered by the japanese godzilla in a matter of seconds
The worst cliffhanger ever. Demolition Man and the 3 Seashells!
I always thought "the 3 seashells" was obvious: dicks, pussies, and assholes. Some sort of bidet and blow-dry for each of the, er, 3 things that you might need to use toilet paper on in a toilet-type scenario. You did get a glimpse of it in one shot, IIRC, but exactly HOW it worked ... we may never know :-o
so guys don't shake it anymore? they need a seashell? gross
It definitely looked like the kind of squeaky-clean future where guys might go around with a washed and blow-dried pee-pee, didn't it? They'd say shaking it was barbaric ... so 20th century :-D
Blatherskite lol I can believe it
This was resolved by the screenwriter. 1 is for wiping and the other two are for ... spreading.
but in unbreakable I thought the point was that the guy played by Sam l Jackson did a load of terrorist attacks because he wanted to find a guy who was opposite to him, who would be able to survive it, that person being played by bruce willis. or maybe I misunderstood...
Yeah, you nailed it, and obviously WhatCulture has clearly never watched any of these movies.
Exactly. Mr Glass (Not Mr Fragile, like he's called in this video for some reason) had spent his entire life being too weak to do anything but hobble around on a cane or sit in a wheelchair, reading comic books. Finding out that Bruce Willis's character is the exact opposite, with his only weakness being water, validated his miserable existence. Of course, we then find out he orchestrated disasters in search of this polar opposite.
I mean, it was all there in the ending. Mr Glass says as much throughout the movie.
Johnny Kronaz my thoughts exactly
A car on the cliff in The Italian Job? what? He said it twice.
Bus or coach would be fine not car the cars were earlier lol
I like what culture normally but this vid has some pretty poor production values.
I can't believe there is another person on this planet who saw I-Man.
Kit McIntosh No, you're correct. I thought it was a pretty good twist and fairly clear.
Are we doing this again?? Okay, "The Thing."
Childs is the thing at the end. MacCready hands him a bottle. But it's filled with gasoline. One of the unlit Molotov Cocktails. He drinks it. MacCready knows it's the thing. Out of frame of the scene, we see MacCready reaching for something. But his hand and that something is out of frame too. He's reaching for the flame-thrower. And as the film ends, we know what's gonna happen. The thing is going to die. MacCready is going to freeze to death, having saved the world. When the rescuers eventually get there though, they're going to think MacCready went insane and brutally murdered everyone before freezing to death.
Thank you!
Morna Burton
Happy to help.
NGMonocrom
also you can't see child's breath in that last scene
Tolyngee
The thing learns from its mistakes. With Childs it simply took it and wore it.
Except that in the CANON video game, they find Childs' body frozen to death and MacReady is still alive, and the Thing was neither one of them.
His name is Mr. Glass, and didn't you all just report not long ago that Unbreakable 2 was in the pipeline?
Trisha Heart split was a sequel to unbreakable. I mean it's a connection you don't see til the end it is connected. And now a third movie is coming out. Don't quote me but I think it's called glass.
I don't think Split is a sequel to Unbreakable any more than Pulp Fiction is a sequel to Reservoir Dogs. Just set in the same universe.
However, if the new movie is called glass, think about how you would put them on your shelf.
Unbreakable/Glass
Bruce Willis appears at the end of split, it was always m Knight shalamans intent to make an unbreakable sequel but so much time had passed that he made split to reintroduce the universe and storyline
Watch trailer of the glass😂😂😂
Can't believe Inception didn't make the cut. The spinning top ending still drives me nuts. I mean, ya there are theories about the wedding ring and stuff but we will ever know? Probs not
cocopunk6841 The point of the spinning top is that it doesn't matter where di caprio is. He could be dreaming or he could be in real life, but the point is that he is back with his kids and happy.
You can resolve it yourself!
Dicaprio dreaming: Wedding ring on
Dicaprio awake: Wedding ring off
better cliffhanger than any movie on this list. not including it equals a fail
I found it a tad forced.... and cheesy...great film... but the spinning top at the end was just a little try-hard....
@@RogueBoyScout No, it wasn't. Because this scene wasn't about if the spinning top would fall or not, but about Dom Cobb not caring anymore if it would. Therefore it's ingenious.
uh, a few issues here:
-Unbreakeable: It's all explained at the end, there's not MORE unbreakables, glass was causing the disasters in order to find ONE unbreakable, which he did with Willis. Also the text at the end explains the events after willis walks away.
-Spiderman: Marvel doesn't own the rights to the movies, Sony still does.. The new spiderman: homecoming movie is distributed/owned by Sony, and co-produced by Columbia (a sony owned entity) and Marvel. Basically it's just a deal to allow sony control/funding rights for the movies and allowing Spiderman to be in the MCU.
-the Thing: There's several theories regarding the ending, one is that the bottle that Macready hands Chiles is actually a Molotov Cocktail, hence the little smile. Also, I don't know if it's true, but I thought I read that the video game that was made a while back is considered Canon, where Macready ends up as the thing.
>There's several theories regarding the ending, one is that the bottle that Macready hands Chiles is actually a Molotov Cocktail, hence the little smile.
Carpenter said they drink booze, so no
Doctor Joker Odd, because in several interviews, carpenter said either "we don't know who the thing is", then again said, "I Know who the thing is, and I'm not telling"
www.ew.com/article/2013/05/03/john-carpenter-the-thing-capetown-film-festival
Also, if you watch the scene, Childs has no breath like Macready.
looked it up, and nnnope it wasn't my imagination
twitter.com/thehorrormaster/status/172531459201052672
but!
twitter.com/thehorrormaster/status/272063161832701953
Ah, well considering the Kurt Russell stated that he "knew" his character was human at the end, I guess childs was the thing at the end.
" I read that the video game that was made a while back is considered Canon, where Macready ends up as the thing."
Errr no.
MacReady isn't the thing in the game at all.
Horrible explanation of Unbreakable. It was a great movie to those that have seen it, but it is obvious "WhatCulture" doesn't fall in that category. Mr. Glass (not Fragile) is highly intelligent and comes to the conclusion that if his bones are as fragile as glass then reason would show that there is someone out there with "Unbreakable" bones. That is the reason for him causing the cataclysmic disasters. Not sure what the hell they are talking about with the "used to be a superhero" crap.
They didn't actually watch the film.
The creator of this video basically paid no attention to the film's end!
I watched it. Thought it was utter crap, worse than even the 6th Sense.
It's not that hard to get if you are deep thinking into movies and don't just stay in line just to find an empty commercial blockbuster.
Split is the sequel to unbreakable there is the closure
UNBREAKABLE 3:40..... It's not that he used to be a superhero. It's that he never realized he was one, and Mr. GLASS had tired of waiting for superheroes to be discovered, so he started creating disasters on the hope that he'd hear one day that someone had been the sole survivor of one of his attacks. this sole survivor would then be contacted to elicit more proof that he was indeed a superhero. And I don't think there was ever going to be a sequel.
There actually are people who call themselves RLSH (Real-Life Super Heroes), but they are really just a bunch of people in costumes and masks handing out food and water bottles to homeless people. Disappointing.
I bet they would run when an actual disaster or even crime occured.
They were planing to make this part of a trilogy.
+Richard Ferguson No, they weren't. Willis only expressed hope they'd make it into a trilogy. And yes, Shamayalama has considered making a sequel but the movie was not written as the first part of a series.
According to the info in the Criterion Edition, yes, they WERE planning this to be the first act in a trilogy. Shyamalan saw that superhero origin movies usually follow a three act pattern--origin, discovery of powers through minor threat, climax through major threat, with each phase lasting about half an hour. He wanted to make an entire movie for each phase.
That would have been great considering Unbreakable (and arguably the sixth sense) was Shamalamadingdong's only good movie.
The motivation for Mr Glass was that the only way he could make sense of his tragic life was to superimpose a comic book narrative over it. He would rather be a super villain fighting his heroic arch rival than just a kid that was born with a tragic, crippling disorder.
Didn't they make a cartoon following up Godzilla?
they did, it is considered better than the movie.
also we get to see godzilla fight a second, cyborg godzilla (as it was the first one from the movie ressurrected by aliens...cause that happens), which is awesome.
yes and then the Japanese main canon Godzilla films confirmed that 98 Zilla was not the real Godzilla
lol yeah he didnt look anything like the real one. i still enjoyed the movie, i mean i was like 11 when it came out, and i use to enjoy watching any of the godzilla old movies and Kong.
I LOVE Godzilla 1998. Haters gonna hate.
Frogos mcduck yes they did
Predators wasn't a remake. It's been specifically said by all involved with it that it was a direct sequel to Predator and the intention was to avoid any connection with the AvP films.
Also, Unbreakable had everything revealed. Mr Glass (Samuel L Jackson's character) explains he is a huge comic book fan and believed that there had to be an opposite of himself, someone unbreakable, so he set up accidents to find them. The end also says that Mr Glass was convicted of murder and terrorism and committed to a criminally insane asylum.
I can't figure how he thought it was a remake or reboot or whatever.
The first time I saw Predators, the guy I watched it with noted that one of the best things about the first Predator movie is you didn't know it was a movie about aliens at first and really had no idea what was going on for the first half hour. Not only were the characters perplexed, you were too.
Every film after that, you knew.
iamciril Yeah, it was basically done like Superman Returns. Set it up as a sequel to an earlier film to wipe out the actual sequels that weren't considered that good.
What's even funnier is they've said it will never be revealed... there's a fucking title and release date for the sequel to Predators that's going to be called The Predator and will be out in March 2018. Not only that, Arnie's in talks about playing Dutch again in it. They've already released promotional material for the film.
Plus there's the fact that they actually refer back to the original Predator in that movie.
I vaguely saw it...and it was utter crap. Part of my disdain for the entire movie was the fact that 'hero' of the piece was the complete opposite of the first 'hero'. A skinny guy who always looks like he just woke up after a long night on the beer...makes me cheer for the monsters. Not so much, "Get to da choppa!" but more, "Please make sure your seat is in the upright position, and your tray table is stowed away."
and predators was resolved in the comics
Um, unbreakable wasn't a cliffhanger simply because no sequels were made. That's an asinine statement. Also, we know Mr. Glass' (not Mr. Fragile. Have you even seen the movie?) motives. He caused so much destruction in order to find David. The movie ends with Glass being convicted of murder and terrorism and committed to an insane asylum. No cliffhanger whatsoever.
Agree. I really like this movie, but there isn't a cliffhanger at the end.
The whole reason I came here and watched the video was because of the thumbnail. I was wondering if there was something I missed in the movie. But yeah. I guess who ever did this video was the one that missed something. Many unbreakables? Where in the movie did anyone say anything like that? Mr Glass says in the end that he figured if there is ONE as fragile as him, then there must also be someONE super durable. I guess there COULD be more people like them, the movies doesn't specifically say there AREN'T, but even if that was the case, why would that be such a cliffhanger? He was a super hero geek, traumatized after years of getting his bones break and obviously a bit crazy... So.. There's your motivation.
To me the ending of Unbreakable is pretty much the opposite of a cliffhanger. It has a big reveal with flashbacks, the dude pretty much explains everything in detail and then there's even text explaining more.
Also, the twist wasn't the trigger that "reminds Willis that he was once a superhero". He's not a former superhero that forgot who he was, or lost faith. He was just a normal dude, but born, well, unbreakable. The whole movie is about Glass trying to make Willis's character into a superhero, so he can take the role of a villain, since he can't be the hero himself.
Indeed. Only a possible idea for a next movie, but nothing realy concrete or cliffhangerish.
this happens every time I click on a video from this channel, it seems like they watched a different movie. I keep forgetting this is that channel and keep watching these idiotic videos.
Note: Mr Glass, not Mr Fragile.
The narrator never saw the film.
I thought it was made obvious at the end of Unbreakable as to why Mr. Glass was destroying the trains, I think he even says it. Basically he hated his condition of having easily breakable bones that he was obsessed with finding someone in the world who would essentially be “unbreakable”; as in the complete opposite of him. And of course now we find out that this is actually the first movie of a planned trilogy with Split being the second film. We’re suppose to find out more about the two characters motivations in the third and final film.
The Zilla one actually was answered in the animated series.
I know nobody cares, but isn't the baby Godzilla at the end of the movie the one they control in the Animated Series?
SaitohYatate yeah it is
Yep. And the Animated Series was actually half-way decent. Probably the only real good thing to come out of that movie.
That movie was my favorite when I was 4 I can't believe I never saw the damn animated series
technically godzilla shouldn't be on this list bc it was resolved in the animated series
The TriStar Godzilla baby grew up to become the Animated Series tame monster. After the end of "The Series" in 2000, it was killed by True Godzilla in 2004's "Final Wars." Toho bought the rights to it, named it Zilla, and had Godzilla kill it in the shortest onscreen fight in Godzilla film history since they absolutely despise the 1998 film.
The entire point of the Thing was the ambiguous ending, so I say fuck you that ending was perfect.
PurpleIsALetter why are you getting so offended by this? They're not sayings it's bad, just that it is an ending that will never be answered
Atomic Fire Because that's exactly the point. The movie doesn't hold your hand and explain yourself, you have to actually use your brain and figure it out. i know that's asking a lot.
Besides it doesn't matter is the other guy infected or not. Everything blow up, there is nothing that It could use to escape, when the fire burns out they both will freeze.
The Thing had the Best Ambiguous Ending Ever. If you want a "happy" ending, they're both human.... And freeze to death..... Or one of them is infected and decides to freeze anyway and thaw out later, or they're both infected..... So many possibilities.... WhatCulture is full of shit for this one.
Go back and watch the end again, where the two characters meet up and talk.
Now notice their breaths. Something is off.
actually the 1998 Godzilla cliffhanger DID get resolved... in an equally shitty cartoon show
and if u don't count that one the monster is briefly brought back in a real Godzilla movie just to be killed by Godzilla in about 3 seconds to establish it isn't Godzilla
At least the cartoon was mildly better than that god forsaken film.
+TheTriumphgurl true, true U-U
the cartoon was great. not nearly as shitty as your opinions
I actually liked the 1998 Godzilla movie. Much better than the new one were you had to wait an hour just to see Godzilla's fat fucking foot.
Did they actually 'career' off the road or did they 'careen'?
John Flanagan - lol right?! I was beginning to wonder if I was the only one who caught that.
'career' and 'careen' mean the same thing when career is used as a verb - to move swiftly in an uncontrollable way
Everyone seems to hate The Green Lantern movie, but Why? I always hear things like too much CGI and that people didn't like Ryan Reynolds, but I don't think it's a terrible movie I mean sure it wasn't at all astounding, but it wasn't bad at all. I'm also getting kinda of sick people talking shit about ZILLA 1998 and it is the same problem with the hate that Hulk-2003 movie is receiving but I remember that haters are nothing more but idiots.
Technically not a "cliffhanger", but we will always ask the question..... "WHAT THE HELL ARE THE 3 SEASHELLS & WHAT DO THEY DO?!"
DrakeMarvell dig the poop out of the toilet
DrakeMarvell that's from the Stallone pic called demolition man. cliffhanger is a totally different Stallone movie where...you guessed it...sly hangs from some cliffs to catch the was from 3rd rock from the sun, who killed French stewart of I remember correct.
OK, this may be bordering on the grotesque, but the way it was explained to me by the writer is you hold two seashells like chopsticks, pull gently and scrape what's left with the third.
NeoVoodooChild Nostalgia Critic: Demolition Man?
Could be a cliffhanger. Maybe it's taken them 23 years to write the answer.
Correction: The rights to Spider-Man are not back with Marvel. Not yet anyway.
It is known.
Not according to the ones who made the video, apparently.
Edgar Diaz
lol true, they *don't* know!
Edgar Diaz Question: Why did those two Spider-Man reboots make no sense from the actual story? i.e No MJ etc
They were trying too hard in preparation to make their own expanded universe of movies. Which is why there's a lot of open ended plot lines that don't get resolved.
And MJ was going to be in The Amazing Spider-Man 2. But her scenes were left out to supposedly put more focus on the relationship between Peter and Gwen.
two things you wrong there about the Godzilla movie
it still made 300 million
and it did continue as a cartoon .
Giokyo Dammit you beat me to it. How do these guys do their research exactly if they missed one of the greatest cartoon spinoffs ever!
also the script of Godzilla 2 is completed but since it cancelled they just leave it for public to read, it still answer the cliffhanger
MegaBobo234 yeah the cartoon was great.
The short lived Godzilla Animated Series served as a sequel to the film. It was much more entertaining than that piece of crap. Furthermore in Toho produced Godzilla Final Wars not only do they allude to the 1998 Godzilla New York attack as canon to that film, but 1998 Godzilla (or “Zilla" as it's officially recognized as by Toho) makes a cameo & gets its ass whooped by the original Godzilla in like 5 seconds.
Josh C Pretty sure it was 18 seconds. But it was a glorious beatdown.
Your mispronunciation of Macready's name hurts me...
instead of his racist pronunciation of m night shyamalan you mean
The mispronunciation of MAC just gave me heart burn
Yeah. Me too.
Kind of like a punch to the gut...but he was right about it being the greatest name...he just should have pronounced it right.
The ending of Tim Burton's Planet of the Apes is a call-back to the ending of the original novel by Pierre Boulle.
Yes but what is that scene insinuating?
sanpo I just thought that instead of going back to the past he just went to the future.
The perplexed look in the end it’s just him realizing how truly fucked he is, it really doesn’t need a follow up, humans lost. The apes are taking the same evolutionary path and eventually humans might get the chance to take back earth.
I just read the plot of the book from Wikipedia. Didn't realize that was the case until u pointed it out . . . .
I call the statue "Aperaham Lincoln "
There was a follow up to the end of the 1998 Godzilla movie... The cartoon series that debuted later that year which takes place right after where the movie ended. It exists.
Was going to say the same thing.
And it's actually a really good cartoon, too
wow really, I don't remember that shit lol, which is probably a good thing in this case.
lunatiksAlterEgo No, actually. It's pretty good.
I was going to say that the baby Godzilla got renamed Zilla and was beaten up by the real Godzilla.
Unbreakable the villain was MR GLASS not Mr fragile... and Bruce Wallis was NEVER a super hero in the movie ... do some research
And the movie was never suppose to have a sequel. And Mr Glass reasons are explained in the movie. Sounds like someone was not paying attention.
When they were making it, they weren't planning for a sequel, but Bruce Willis and Shyamalan both wanted to do more movies after seeing how successful it was.
+blackrazer22 forget "paying attention"...I'm not even sure they watched it.
For a second I thought maybe I had forgotten a huge chunk of the movie. I was thinking "Wait, he used to be a superhero?" Yea, the last time I fully watched that movie was when it came out and I still remember the plot points. WC did a piss poor job with this one.
sleepup7931 It's Bruce Willis :/
super mario bros movie had one hell of a cliffhanger XD
Unfixingalloy1 Was going to say that too. So, just thumb up yours instead. 😉
Thanks XD
I'm sorry, you must be mistaken, there was no Super Mario Bros movie. >:(
there wasn't a good super mario Bros movie 😄
Unfixingalloy1 No, there just wasn't a movie. We do not speak of the abomination. :P
For the Godzilla cliffhanger, look into the Godzilla animated series based on the movie, it goes into what happened afterwards with the new Godzilla fighting off monsters.
A cliffhanger I want to be resolved is if Luke blows up the Death Star.
Yes. There's your answer
The Thing was answered though. Near the end, there's a split second where you see "Charles" drinking from a fuel canister. Then MacReady smiles, and THEN the movie ends.
He's drinking from the bottle MacReady gave him, which could have been one of the Molotovs or it could have been the whisky we saw MacReady drinking from the same kind of bottle earlier in the movie. Just went back and watched the DVD commentary to make sure I remembered this right, but both Carpenter and Russell said it was supposed to be ambiguous and they still hadn't decided whether Childs was the Thing or not.
Childs is the thing....he has no breath, Macready has. Surprised so many folks missed this. Carpenter when quizzed as said to pay attention to the breath of the characters.
Then there's The Thing video game, which takes place shortly after the events of the film. It shows what happened to both Childs and Macready. If I remember correctly Carpenter gave it his blessing and considers it canon.
And the terrible video game
Those involved with making the movie have stated that the missing breath in the cold was an accident.
Also, in previous scenes the Thing is seen to be breathing.
How could you not include Big Trouble in Little China?!?!?
There was a sequel to this in the form of a comic! Check out dorkshelf.com/2014/06/04/big-trouble-in-little-china-1-review/
I agree...
pretty much all John Carpenter's Movies end like, have you thinking what happens next?
Christopher Adgett: It's not the point of your comment, but it's amazing how much visual influence that movie had over both the "Mortal Kombat" and the "Doom" series of video games!
Christopher Adgett
Awesome comment and I completely agree! Even as I kid I always wondered what happened to ol Jack Burtton and that demon.....
The ending of "Unbreakable" worked for me. Someone next to me in the theater commented on how it set Bruce Willis up for a sequel. I disagreed. "Unbreakable" focused on the development of Bruce Willis as a superhero, but only to satisfy the ends of Samuel Jackson's desire to find his own purpose in the world. Ultimately, this is Mr. Glass's story, not Bruce Willis's story. Mr. Glass could find no positive purpose in his own miserable lot in life. So why did he exist at all? As a child, he could only escape his prison through fantasy and fantasy shaped his development. If he could find someone as unbreakable as he is fragile, it would show that there was indeed a yin to every yang (or black and white if you want to use race to illustrate the metaphor). If Mr. Glass's opposite could be shown to be a hero, then Mr. Glass would have to be the villain. The good in Bruce Willis's life would be that he would become a superhero, save people, regain his son's admiration as well as the love of his wife, and ultimately uncover the identity of his nemesis. Mr. Glass created the circumstances where his own purpose in life was to be so reprehensible that the universe had to create someone good to balance the scale. In his own twisted world view, that end was reached and he could be satisfied that his life had a purpose. The dramatic irony is that the viewer sees Bruce Willis's emotions collapse. He hasn't been elevated to superhero, he's only been used by an insane and evil person. This has tainted Bruce Willis's character. He may or may not go on to do good things, but we know his "Origin Story" is overshadowed by Samuel L. Jackson's infamy. Bruce Willis realizes that he's been the secondary character in the plot from the moment he survived the train wreck. There is no cliff-hanger. There is nothing to resolve. Samuel L. Jackson's story is the story of "Unbreakable." He found his purpose in the world and is willing to live out his life in prison to certify that existence.
BillsBayou yeah I thought they resolved it with like a implied arrest for Glass
Well now that there’s another one coming out, do you feel silly about this rant?
Unbreakable has a sequel.
Split.
not a movie, but same punch in the face feeling. "Firefly" and any of the stargates. mostly SGU. Great video.
Not true about "The Thing", in the end Macready realized his friend was the thing because he drank out of the liquor bottle and did not realize that the happy juice had been replaced with kerosene to make Molotov's. It was such a small detail a lot of people didn't notice.
Stoned Dog also his breath, if you watch closely his breath has no effect on the cold weather.
Also, his earrimg is missing.
They also gave another clue. The eyes. Everyone who wasn't affected had shiny eyes, reflection of light. Those that were affected didn't.
Silver Bird - That has been debunked. It was a mistake. Not intentional.
plus the guys breathing wasn't causing vapor
Errrmm I think you guys misunderstood the ending of Unbreakable. There was no cliffhanger at all.
the Godzilla series conclued with Godzilla the animated series not the best ending but it was an ending
I actually enjoyed the animated series, thought it ended well, it was vastly better than the 1998 film.
Dawn Dayton how did it end? never saw the series
Jay Padilla Well the last episode to make it to air was Ring of Fire before it got cancelled and this is plot taken from the Godzilla Wiki: godzilla.wikia.com/wiki/Godzilla:_The_Series
The episode opens with the Fire Monster rising through a pipe on an oil rig in the Gulf of Mexico and attacking the workers. H.E.A.T. then goes to investigate the claims of a "combustible entity", and send N.I.G.E.L. onto the destroyed rig where he finds the Fire Monster. He is destroyed and they search it on foot. They bring projectile gas canisters that are capable of freezing lava, and use them to enter a battle with the monster in which it runs from one member into another. Just when they lose the upper hand, Godzilla arrives to combat it in their stead. They then discover that Godzilla's Atomic Ray only strengthens the Fire Monster. H.E.A.T. is able to escape just as the Rig crumbles under Godzilla's weight. After falling in the water, the Fire Monster regains energy by absorbing oil in the water and, seeing this, H.E.A.T. leads a trail of their own oil to an otherwise oil-less location to lure it away and let it deplete its reserves. They are successful, but Mendel Craven wished to study the creature more, and secretly has N.I.G.E.L. take it back to H.E.A.T. Headquarters. Randy Hernandez then joins him, and they conduct research on it in an outbuilding with the furnace where they discover that the creature bleeds methane gas, which reacts with the furnace's pilot light and explodes. They escape unscathed, but the Fire Monster returns. It attacks a nearby oil tank, and they call Anthony Hicks to help. It is then revealed that his entire arsenal is heat-sensitive, so everything the Military throws at the Fire Monster will prematurely detonate. Craven and Randy then rig N.I.G.E.L. with Nitroglycerin and send him toward the creature. They defeat it and place it in a secure environment.
I hate when people leave anything unresolved. It reminds me of that one time...............................
Seems like you just had a foreign language copy of Unbreakable to view.
the real cliffhanger is if there gonna redue this list without movies that suck
Has everybody pointed out that Carpenter himself said the black guy is the alien, cuz you can't see his breath? Also, he said that he thought it was obvious. A bit condescending, if you ask me. Has they? GOOOOOOD
...i was scrolling to see if somebody already pointed this out.
Always the black guy!
There was a video game that came out which acted as a sequel. Childs was found frozen to death uninfected and MacReady was MIA
Carpenter didn't say it, some random Reddit user only claimed that he knows a guy who had a discussion with John Carpenter. In legitimately published interviews and Q&A sessions Carpenter literally ALWAYS stated that there was no definite answer to whether one of the survivors was infested. And actually you CAN see Childs' breath, it's just not as visible as MacReady's due to the lighting.
fotakatos your point is correct.
was so sure Lock Stock and two smoking barrels was going to be in this list !!
I have been looking through the comments to see if someone would say Lock Stock. Even though your comment was an hour age it took me 3 show more buttons to find it. Too me its one of the greatest cliffhangers.
Keyz Davidson Ivm pretty sure the film "Snatch" was the supposed to be the sequel
I think so. They are very similar in plot and style. I don't remember anyone saying it was a sequel. Correct me if I'm wrong tho.A good film never the less.
I know it was the same director and most of the cast and it was shot to look and have the feel of the first film. Not sure if it is a direct sqeul but the director has stated it takes place in the same universe
In the Italian Job: Why didn't they just let the gold fall out and gathered it later? I mean they have to bring a new car anyway, so they could as well collect the gold from below while waiting.
blub232324
1 collect all that gold in daylight with being seen
2 how would they push the gold out with out tipping truck over the cliff
3 the film's ending wouldn't have been so iconic if your idea happened
UK MONKEY this will sound snarky but it's not meant to be.
Gold doesnt work that way, damaged gold doesn't make less money than not damaged gold. Gold's value is determined by weight. So if you have 1 pound of gold in a prestinely crafted bar, or 1 pound of gold all scratched up and shit, it's worth the same price.
The more you know :)
David Mechaly allright I'll give you that one
That's actually part of the plot of the then planned sequel.. They were going to let the gold slide out then recover it but the Mafia got to it first and the sequel was them stealing it back Unfortunately, the sequel never got made.
But Caine says he's got a great idea. It's not really a great idea is it? My plan would be to get loads of rocks from nearby and weigh down the end of the coach.
actually Godzilla 1998 had an animated series based on it that resolved the cliffhanger
What about lock, stock and two smoking barrels? That gave us 2 options that will never be answered.
#ShitCliffhangersForWankers
in the thing I thought McCready gave his mate a drink that was actually kerosene so he knew that he was infected
Thank you. I've been scrolling down to see if someone had already posted this.
+TriksterHD yeah I thought it was well known
that one dude bro man
apparently it was obvious that child's was the alien because you couldn't see his breath
+Luke Preston either one but still come on whatculture step it up
I think The Thing was supposed to be vague at the end.. with the intention of giving the audience the "what if.." since it was sci/fi horror. Basically the equivalent of having the slasher villain's eye pop open right before the ending credits.
michael caine has said the idea was to let the fuel out of the fuel tank or something and even it ou
Adam Schofield thats right. i think it was more like let the engine run until the fuel is all gone.
There was actually going to be a sequel and Caine also made mention of this. The idea was to let the gold fall to the bottom of the cliff and then retrieve it from down there. However before they got to it, the mafia gets to it and they have to steal it back.
Yeah, that's what I would've done. It's gold after all, it'd survive being plunged to the bottom. The thing is, now everyone has to jump off at the same time.

Cliffhangers are a thing every anime fan has come to live with.
3:02 Godzilla's cliffhanger was carried over in the animated series. It's ironic that you suggest that surviving Godzilla is "someone's pet now", because the surviving Godzilla imprints on Mathew Broaderick's character and essentially becomes his loyal attack dog.
The rights of spider-man are not back with Marvel. Sony and Marvel made a deal, that's all.
hi have a good cliff hanger that will really keep you wondering
i think the Godzilla thing was continued in a cartoon
the first America Godzilla Movie did got sequel but it took into form of a Cartoon. Godzilla the animated series. use to play on Fox Kids. I think it on Netflix. the worm guy rise the baby godzilla as pet and use it fight other giant monster
the Godzilla cartoon series "not that bad by the way" picks up right where the movie ends and resolves the cliffhanger by having Godzilla fight monsters with a team of people for a few seasons.
parallels, it was meant to be a show but instead just aired the pilot episode as a movie on Netflix
I wish Netflix had picked it up as a show.
Godzilla's cliffhanger got resolved in the cartoon adaptation.
About PLANET OF THE APES, read the original book by Pierre Boulle and you'll see Tim Burton's ending is much more faithful to it than the 1968's one.
in the original book, the astronaut doesn't travel back in time. He travels at relativistic speeds to and from the titular planet and finds himself hundreds of years in Earth's future.
true
i read a theory for the Tim Burton movie that kind of works though: whoever goes through the wormhole first comes out last. Like either side of the wormhole time moves in opposite directions
So as we see in the film:
The chimp goes into the wormhole.
Marky Mark follows.
Marky Mark lands on planet
The chimp lands on planet at the end of the movie.
So in the theory Marky Mark gets off planet at the end, and some time long after that, Thade somehow gets the other ship running again and follows Marky Mark, so Thade arrives long before Marky Mark, takes over planet and THEN Marky Mark arrives...
That also works when you remember that the crew followed Marky Mark and crash landed on the planet hundreds of years before him.
Burton's ending is complete shit.
I always imagined the ending of the Planet of the Apes film as being, he DID go back in time, BUT it was too late in the timeline.
So basically instead of going back, lets say 30 years before the apes took over, he went back 10. So he was back in his general timeline, but too late to stop anything. So the world was similar to how it was, but it was already taken over.
There is a resaloution for unbreakable. Split
There's the end to Jumanji.
Those poor French kids get stuck in he game for decades too.
Why didn't the kids just burn the thing?
Shhhhhh! that's the premise to the 2018 Jumanji in development
Godzilla did make lot of money
kanishq ruhil yeah just no one liked it
I actually thought it was surprisingly good. I mean the newer one.
what unbreakable ins't a cliffhanger, and mr.fragiles motives are pretty obvious.
The ending to Inception is the biggest one I've ever had to struggle with.
Flash Gordon; a mysterious hand picks up Ming's ring, title: "The End...?"
i liked Green Lantern
I guess I can relate...I still like the Daredevil movie...I think if it were not for Bulls Eye's character...It would have been better received.
I also like the Daredevil movie, and the directors is even better.
I thought it was OK. Not great by ANY means, but not horrid like most people like to get off on saying. Same with ASM 2, which I thought was pretty good.
Oh, so you're the one. I knew you had to be out there somewhere.
It's true, very few people think for themselves nowadays.
Am I the only person on this entire fucking planet that actually liked The Green Lantern?
I really enjoyed.
I watched it at the cinema, even took my mum, we had a great time, class film.
Nope! It's not my favorite superhero film, but it is nowhere near the worst of them! That title goes to Amazing Spider-Man 2 and X-Men: Days of Future Past.
Days of future past is among my favorite Movies ever, what da hell are you talking about.
And about GL, There are a lot of bad parts, but the are good parts in that Movie too.
yes
We want Predators 2!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Yeah!
go read the comic!!!!!!!!!!
This year The Predator comes out
Rights on Spider-Man aren't back to Marvel, it's just they have an agreement with Sony now.
There are two things about The Thing's ending:
1) Childs chilling breath is not showing meaning he is not breathing.
2) There is a graphic novel named The Thing from Another World which shown that Childs is already a thing.
Godzilla actually resolves it in the animated series.
Well... we do have split...
I feel like something is not a real "cliffhanger" unless it's understood that there definitely will be a connecting follow-up to the immediate situation in question, especially one that might already be in development. Just leaving a situation open-ended is not a cliffhanger. Neither is showing that the creature/villain is still alive somewhere, or suggesting that the hero might be in for more adventures down the road.
What about Eragon? The one with the dragons. I know it's a bookserie as well but to me who never read the books (and probably never will) the movie ended with "the big bad" getting released - the end xD
Love your channel btw! xD
Simon is quality as the voice-over! Please dont change this Whatculture!
The thing video game made it pretty clear what happened at the end of the movie. Just saying
not canon
Pronounce "Mic-creedy". Mr. Fragile?!!? You never watched the movies, did you? Very sad.
The ending of Wilfred
which version? cos the original AU series had a pretty weird ending, but the US one was just kinda dumb
The US one was stupid, it didn't give any answers to anything in the show
Indecisive thank you! yes! everybody seemed to love that one, but it was so unsatisfying! fucking dumb shit. Poor Adam, eh?
Indecisive Actually, apparently at the end Ryan actually succeeded in his suicide and died.
Vash theStampede but the lead of Wilfred is called Adam...?
Two of these were sorta answered in other media; The Thing had a video game sequal that explained that Macready was actually infected in the end and Godzilla had a cartoon series follow up that had baby Godzilla being trained by the gov to fight other monsters. For what its worth.
Lock, stock, and two smoking guns' cliff hanger drove me crazy for weeks
I really like that Godzilla movie. I still watch it
Aperham Lincolnanana
Get out
Big Trouble In Little China......Jack Burton what happened to him.....and the rest of them in that last scene in the restaurant.
Theres a graphic novel out there... It starts RIGHT where the film ends... :-)
No shit!!!! Doing the research on that right now. Thanks bruh!
peter benson
Just bought the first three on Amazon! Can`t wait to find out what happened to Jack...
Your awesome dude thanks!
yr welcome, going to get them myself next week .... so no spoilers!! ;-)
the biggest one for me will always be nightbreed. such a cool film with such a cliffhanger that happened close to 25 years before I saw it....
3:28 Ha ha ha, made my day. XD
you know how they'd resolve "Italian Job"?
When the guy sells his lucky ball on letgo.
The Godzilla had a cartoon that explained it
bionicleone what was the explanation?
RoScFan
The baby godzilla imprinted on the scientist from the film and as a result thought he was his dad. They proceed to fight monster together.
So... Babyzilla became a... pet?
Wow that sounds cringeworthy.
+Max Acree
It REALLY wasn't. It was a very enjoyable series.
Regarding the Thing, if you watch the prequel movie that came out later, they describe that the alien can't duplicate metal attachments to its human hosts (earrings, cavity fillings). Keith David's character (Charles) still had a earring in his ear at the end so he was human.
1 - predators is answered in the graphic novel
2 - the thing has been answered many times
3 - Godzilla got a sequel in a cartoon series
The last Godzilla baby that survived actually grew up and became the Godzilla from the animated series, it is actually a badass compared to its mother.
All these have been resolved:
1. Italian Job was a reboot that had a call back on what happened.
2. Predators had the explanation in Alien Vs. Predator and shows the planet idea explaining brody.
3. The thing had a breakdown where the bottle was a cocktail full of fuel. Why he had the flamethrower still.
4. Godzilla had a cartoon series (Shout out to +Elliote Lytle)
5.Unbreakable had a script out (Thanks Screen Junkies)
6.Green Lantern had it explained easily through the animated series and Injustice.
7.A.Spiderman Tv series filled that scenario.
8. POA was rebooted and explained on the idea of Caeser. Which case it showed what happened with Marky cause of the call back with a news report.
The Godzilla 97 one was actually solved, there was a cartoon series back in 98 called "Godzilla the series" and it was a direct follow up to the movie.
Bruce Willis is the Unbreakable. He didn't know he was a super hero until Mr. Glass caused all the destruction just to find him. One end of the spectrum to the other.
The thing is, the 1998 Godzilla movie did actually make a lot of money, it just didn’t get a sequel because it was critically panned
Unbreakable was wrapped up perfectly. Mr. Glass is on a spectrum with Bruce Willis, who is the opposite being strong and never getting sick.
“Now that we know who you are, I know who I am, I’m not a mistake.” Mr. Glass.
Direct quote telling you why he was derailing trains, setting fires. If you are gonna make videos about cliffhangers at least watch the movie cuz there is no cliffhanger in unbreakable.
