Like The Mist? Dude was the protagonist, and the mist, while not a person, was the villain.

I don't think anybody left out of the movie theater feeling like that dude won. The Mist won. lol

I could talk about obscure comics, but who wants to hear that shyt right now? :heh:



Maybe you should branch out to foreign films. Asian and Korean and the like.

Them dudes don't never win. :to:

Everybody loses.

So yall forgot about No Country For Old Men?

Anton Chigurh pretty much won only getting a broken arm for his troubles

How about Funny Games?

Bad guy REWINDS the film and kills of all the good guys

Memento, unless you see the main as a hero. IMO that nikka is a straight up villain.

Strike Team were :whoo::win:, still cant believe the show had me rooting for Mackey :mindblown:, I aint even gonna call him an anti-hero even though the show did well to make you believe that, nikka was a straight up ruthless piece of crap.

I wrote a script and sent it to two consultants the other day. The protagonist - a very likeable guy who has many conflicts DOES NOT win.

They both (as I predicted) said I should change the ending so he does win because that's what audiences want to see.

That ending was legit depressing. That scream he did at the end :sadcam:

just because things don't end exactly how you wanted it to end makes it a bad ending.

what other way could breaking bad end? IMO the villain did win, they are getting almost 10 million in 10 months and Skyler has the lottery ticket out of jail.
