Melinda Gordon Mode : Alternate Endings


Cleavage itu penting


I missed creating the top ten list, dulu2 rajin create top ten benda2 mengarut nih. Saja seronok reminiscing movies sambil wat list2 bengong nih. Last one I did pon tak silap separuh jalan..entah mood nak nulih dan menkaji2 dah long gone. But oleh kerana mood aku celaru semenjak semalam, aku decide nak nulih2 kisah movie lagi. And wala! I created Melinda Gordon mode. Sapa tengok Ghost Whisperer leh fhm lah kot, benda nih conjured by me and Purak Patel if kitorang masing2 xtau apakebenda yg kita tgh referring too, hence googling ergo Melinda Gordon!

Masa kat MMU dulu aku rajin download alternate endings/ deleted scenes from the net, cam hobby sambilan ah gak time2 melangut kat dorm dgn Razz/Bobo & Ewan/ Disaster Guy. Malangnyer pc zaman tuh dah lama hancur dan juga aku lupa laman2 web aku download benda2 tak bermotif nih.

Masa time tuh gak DVD cetak rompak sangat lah teramat cool, special feature semua ada. The making, deleted scene, alternate ending, u name it ada. Bkn cam DVD skrg (even yg original!)..hapah xda..habuk!..trailer pon letak yg bangang2 bkn dlm genre yg sama pon. Tak lupa juga, cover depan pesta tampal2 kalah poster2 bengong film melayu. Tambah bodoh if cerita drama keluarga...tiba2 ada superimpose kat tangan one of the characters..apa kejadah. Malah ada jugak yg letak gambo babes and hunks kat depan cover partially in the buff tuk mengaburi mata pembeli, cam izar beli cerita cover depan ni ada seorang mamat sasa satu masa dahulu..eh oops! Anywayyyy point is..dvd2 dulu best..skrg cam bodoh. Aku nak tgk features...I love features. Last original DVD aku beli adalah The Orphan..dan ada satu jer kandunganyer, deleted scenes and alternate ending...tuh jer?!?! Dah ler splash screen dia still image! LAME! (actually yg nih aku taktau nak salahkan sama, derang repackage ke? or mmg the distributor yg bangang)

As for alternate endings, me love it!..it brings new light to the movie sometimes...juga the original idea of the directors/writers blah3 whoever lah yg terlibat. Take example Final Destination, original ending agak bleak, Devon Sawa mampus dan Ali Later is revealed to be pregnant. Personally nasib they changed the ending..sbb apparently Devon Sawa stopped the killings after his death. If that happens...err...no more sequels! WAAAAA, well I could actually live without the last one. Lagipon remade ending is fun...who could forget Kerr Smith's confused look uttering the words "So who's next?"..dumbass. (*note nih antara fav dvd aku,tak ori fyi hehe)

Another Devon Sawa movie, Idle Hands, also had a totally different ending..dan agak panjang, DAN it happen near the school's swimming pool in comparison to the original/theatrical ending which only happens near..erm aku taktau correct term dia so aku akan ckp "kelas bengkel kereta"..alternate ending nih gak cool bagi aku cause dia mmg tukar terus the whole last scene, cerita lebih kurang ah...but seingat aku (cause this was a long time ago) Devon Sawa mati dlm nih. But like Final Destination, the theatrical ending mmg better cause lagi lawak dan pro-hero and the movie calls for this sort of ending. (*note nih download dari website cool tuh, aku tak rasa ada DVD release cerita nih mempunyai features2 hebat camnih)

28 Days Later pula mempunyai multiple alternate endings, one of it hero tuh mati. There's more tapi aku berjaya tgk 2 jer (DVD aku cam rosak2 xleh tgk feature lain) Now this ending for me, should be use. Cause mamat nih died on a hospital bed, like in the beginning he woke up on a different hospital bed. So u see?..cam full circle gak..hehe. Ke tak logic? Whatever lah..yg aku tau sebenarnyer impossible nak lepaskan diri dari Zombie2 Marathon. Another multiple ending movie is Joy Ride, cerita nih bagia ku sleeper hit..sangat tak sangka level bestnyer..but the alternate endings yo!..banyak...ada satu nih...siap last 20 minutes or less ditukar abih. Jln cerita terus berlainan...BUT agak crappy lah gak that alternate ending ni, if guna ending tuh x dapat tgk lakonan berkesan Leele Sobieski cuak hampir kena tembak.

As for "Thank god they didn't use this ending" category that one goes to T2, alternate ending nih aku tgk kat Youtube jer, I heard bout it..and yeah...its stupid. An open book ending is much better cause we can have possible sequels...and I like (like yeah) T3 it aint all bad.


Latest one comes to mind is the Orphan's alternate ending, luckily this one wasn't use..cause its not shocking (as per promotional cover) more stupid than shocking...it is weird and freakish though (pst..esther didn't die!) Lastly the OMG alternate ending I saw was Butterfly Effect; I love the theatrical ending, it was sad...granted the alternate one was also sad...but the alternate one was just plain dumb, fetus commit suicide in the womb? U gotta be kidding me.

So I end there, today (actually dari last week dah) am searching for cool movies with features on Ebay/Lowyatt/Mudah.com. Monster Squad right now is looking pretty cool...entah lah..we'll see. Have a fun weekend guys! Moh Sungai Congkak!
