Movie ending angst

I do love seeing movies, and watch many at home.

The other day Jeff and I went to a movie theater and saw Inception. Great movie, I really enjoyed, and will need to see it again to understand all of the ins and outs. The ending, and I will not go into any detail at all to save the movie for those who have not seen it, provided me with some angst. I googled "Inception movie ending" so I could have a deeper understanding of the end, but, really, it will require another viewing.

The movie that really contributes to my movie ending angst was Remember Me. Ugh. I am a sucker for the romantic comedy, and while I did not make this particular choice did sit down to watch it for its entire 113 minute running time. The basic plot is boy and girl both individually suffer from horrible tragedy in their personal lives, boy and girl meet through a strange set of circumstances, they fall in love, their deep love provides some healing ... yay, happy ending. Unfortunately, as the happy ending unfolds, ominous music plays. Uh oh. The boy (actually he is 22, his name is Tyler, and he is played by the actor who plays Cedric Digory/Edward Cullen... handsome, pale, bushy eyebrows) is in one of the twin towers, the date is September 11, 2001, and he dies. What a waste of time.

Why did I watch that movie? All of the energy I put into watching Tyler confront his Dad, audit classes, ride in bike, fall in love... to watch him die. I do get that tragedy occurs, sad things happen; however, this particular ending was weak, contrived, ruined the story, and gave me movie ending angst.
