Strange how test audiences decided I am Legend's Robert Neville needed to die instead of making him realized what he had become. There is a reason for the movie being called I am Legend. The book is called I am Legend. And this is because Robert Neville becomes a "legend" to those humanoid survivalists. He is a "legendary creature", the one who hunts humanoids. Like, literally, audiences changed the whole meaning of the book and Hollywood decided to take a step far from the source material just to please them.

The first thing that popped into my head when I saw that title was "Deep Blue Sea" everyone hated the main female character

Little Shop of Horrors: Audrey II was supposed to eat Seymore and Audrey and then go on a rampage in the original cut. The ending tested so badly (twice) that the studio scrapped the $5 mil ending and did a quick reshoot where Seymore destroys Audrey II.

Kinda funny they made Deep Blue Sea not realizing people would hate Saffron Burrows' character. She's literally the only hateable character in the movie, including the sharks. lol

Merlin's death was not "Fuckin' SpectaculAAr". He was one of the best characters in the second movie

Seeing as I am someone who prefers happy endings I would have liked to see Merlin survive.

I agree with the Deep Blue Sea change. No one who put hitler's brain in a shark should get a happy ending.

They killed everyone besides Eggsy just to bring back Harry, and I just can't forgive them that.

Amazing video what culture,fantastic job.

No Max and Elise from “Suicide Kings”?

In hindsight, and on rewatch, it's obvious that the movie makers expected us to root for Dr Susan MacCallister in "Deep blue sea". But it still baffles me how they could ever have expected that. As it were, I have rarely been so pleasantly surprised during a movie, as when I saw her get unceremoniously chomped by the last Big Bad Mako. And again, on rewatch, knowing that actress Saffron Burrows were under the impression her character was going to survive and acted her part accordingly, this adds a wonderful touch of hilarity to it all.

A blade prequel with blade as a teenage vampire and whistlers story of starting hunting vampires and their eventual meeting could actually be good.

Horror monster movies 101, the creator of the monster always dies. Either sacrificing themselves to save others or being turned on by their creation. Glad they listened to the test audience

Love your content 😊😊

How about 1998's The Mask Of Zorro... Anthony Hopkins' Don Alessandro/Zorro 1 was supposed to live (as official photos clearly show), but it was finally decided he had to die.

And several of these felt like the wrong choices. Golden Circle and I Am Legend especially stick out. I could complain about Freddy Krueger, but that's a personal preference more than poor choice making.

Has anyone watched the original adaptation of I am Legend? The Vincent Price one called “The last Man on Earth”. Was wondering if it was any good.

Layer Cake was based on a book (I was surprised by this), and in that he does not die. But I guess he does get shot (my dad read it, it’s one of his favorite movies, but now he can never remember if he dies or not in the movie 😂). A more faithful adaptation would have killed the pace /vibe they had going, so his death works out better for the movie.

Final Destination is not a horror series. It’s a comedy.

I preferred the idea of DC's character in Layer cake living. The ending didn't do it for me.

While Mark Strong's death in Kingsman 2 bothered me I was more upset by the girl that helped save the day in the first film dying in the beginning of the film. Also not happy about the guy shot in the eye surviving. I loved his character in the first movie but bringing him back was lame. Also why all the F bombs. I am sick of hearing it in accepted general conversation.

The big problem here is that an ending can make or break a story and really should leave story telling to film director otherwise the theme of the story is at risk taking down the whole story as a mess.

I think for I am legend two seperate endings got released into the world

I wonder about Alien III

I'm just here to look at Gareth.

Jason over Freddie. Every time. Freddie plays around. Jason doesn't.

In I Am Legend, I thought that the female who was used as Neville's Guinea Pig, was the Alpha's daughter rather than his mate. It is stated in the movie that she was about 18 y/o, so wouldn't it make more sense that she was his daughter instead of his wife?

test audiences killed these characters? that’s both rude and psychotic

too bad the director did not do the same to captain marvel in her 1st movie.

The death of Dr. Susan MacCallister in Deep Blue Sea made the whole movie pointless. Aren't most of the test audiences in Los Angeles or Las Vegas? Do they really represent the rest of us?
