The American remake of The Vanishing. They should have kept the original ending, but Hollywood always has to have a happy ending.

That's a good choice.

I'd add the original 'happy' ending for Blade Runner the studio tacked on.  Horrible.

Guess I just don't like to see forced happiness.  If the ending for a particular film clearly needs to be grim, or ambiguous, or nilhistic then just let it be so.

There's enough 'happy juice' material swilling around for those that need to pretent everything always works out in the end.

Yeah, I don't mind happy endings. It's just that they are so cliche. Give me the original intended ending. I don't need horse blinders to protect me from real life consequences.
