6th sense smells like bacon.

Love it when that happens! It’s as if your the super slooth for 15 minutes before they unveil the end :)

Or as I was taught by a friend, if you don’t like it, just re-write the end.

I agree “6th Sense” endings, don’t happen anymore.

The sad thing is how often this seems to happen lately. Either I’m getting better at sniffing out plot patterns or writers are getting less original.

Pretty soon, a more appropriate awesome thing might be: “When you THINK you’ve figured out the plot twist and something completely original happens instead.”

Happens far too often for this to be awesome. Sorry.

I think it depends on whether the audience’s enjoyment of whatever medium it is (film, television, literature, etc.) hinges on the plot twist. I’m pretty good at predicting where the plot of a show is headed (such as Chuck), but the unfolding of the episode is enjoyable in its own right outside the twist — and I get gloating rights for having called what was going to happen, whether it was from viewing the preview of “Next week’s episode” or two seconds before it happens.

Awesome.

I’m sorry, but I totally dislike that. Used to love it as a kid, but only with criminal flicks. Otherwise… If I get a totally unexpected finale (but not totally weird, cuckoo and bla), I love I didn’t catch it.

Par example… The sixth sense. LOVED IT. Thank goodness someone didn’t spoil it before I saw the flick. :D
