    I think there are a lot of morals and overarching themes going on throughout the story. That's a big part of why I liked the movie. There is a lot more to it than what it portrays on its face.

    I know, I was making a joke about people who didn't like the ending.

    I liked the short story better, but it was a pretty good movie.

    The movie had a different ending, and I don't think the books ending would have worked as well on the big screen.

    That, or something not as completely laughable as the one that was actually in the movie.

    The ending made the whole movie feel like a comedic skit in a way. Not the shooting part, but the fact that help was right there.

    I agree it was very tragic. This movie was much better then I had anticipated, because of all the undertones. Lot more to this movie then bugs.

    I laughed. Therefore it was laughable.

    I read the short story several times growing up, so I figured the ending would be them driving into Hartford after the night in the HoJos.

    But holy crap, that ending....I was totally kicked in the nuts. Glad I waited til my family was outta town to see it though.
