No one said he was hated. Just that his endings suck. :D

Come on, the ending of "It" was the -most-horrible-absurd-dissapointing ending all over the world of books! After.... how many? 1000 pages?

Okay, but -what- made it such a horrible ending?


I don't remember reading that one, so I am genuinely curious.

The man has an interesting train of thought, his problem is he cant dance the last dance and make you feel like you've had a nice ride. It's like you've been on a long walk on some deserted road and then BAM! You've been hit by a car. :P

My wife threw a book once because she hated the ending so much. Don't remember what book it was, though.

If it was large and left a dent in the floor...it was It.

(Okay, I wasn't going to comment on this at all originally, but for some reason it won't mark as read even after I've read it. It says Doug was the last person to post here, at 10:06 UTC–5, but it shows Arenti's as the newest post on this actual page, at 10:03 UTC–5. So maybe it'll work and I can stop being so agitated by the highlighted thread (I'm too lazy to hit the Mark All As Read button).)

I've never read Stephen King. Need to, though, despite the bad reviews on his endings. *shrugs*

(Edit: Yay, it worked! Though it still doesn't show Doug's post…oh well.)

I don't like Kings ending very much, either, but usually all the way towards them is more than enough to cover the last disapointment :P

Haven't read It yet, though
