F#$@ This Ending!

Every story has an ending and everyone has an ending that they hate. Perhaps it's a lack of detail about what happens to the story's characters. Perhaps the writer uses a tired old cliche to get the ending they want. Maybe it's just flat-out stupid, especially with how much smarter the rest of the story was. For me there's two endings in mind, one I don't see as bad but can understand why everyone does and the other which pulls something out of nowhere that sadly taints the story on a whole. The former's the ending to Stephen King's Dark Tower series.
The other is the ending to an anime called Blue Gender, a series shown once on Adult Swim and probably for a very good reason.
So, what book's/movie's/TV show's ending grinds your gears?

I choose to believe that show ended after episode 13 of season 4
I mean, it was a great ending! But I was still upset.
yyyyyep
fuck that
I don't understand the love for this movie either
oh man, yeah
that one hurt
I simply choose to be classy and give barely-used keys on my keyboard some action.
Let's Play Final Fantasy 'II' (Ch10 - 5/17/10)
I really liked that book, but it was because of the voice and the characters more than the story
and yeah the ending is pretty ridiculous.
My mother read it and hated it, so I never bothered.
Then the movie was on TV here, and I didn't realize what I was watching at first and got kind of caught up, thinking it was a crime drama (a genre which I unabashedly love).
I wanted to throw something at the TV when it was over.

I liked the book more than the movie.
Thankfully I felt nothing but disdain for most of the cast by the time the books ended
yeah this kind of wrecked my life for a couple days
Which is frustrating, because dammit, Battlestar Galactica was the first show that I actually bothered to watch every episode, and I even did it when every episode first aired
And dammit, it was almost the perfect show
I was watching the series finale on TV when it first aired, and halfway through I actually stopped myself and said, "Holy shit, I think they've did it. I think they've made the perfect TV show, beginning to end."
But then the last half of the finale aired, and when it ended I was so pissed.
I almost stopped watching TV altogether, just because of how bad that last hour was.
Why do I feel like that could only have been done in the worst possible way
Is why

Yeah the movie is total garbage which is a real shame because the book is excellent.
The movie seriously misses the entire point. It's like it has a bunch of the same scenes from the book, but doesn't tell the same story at all.
that was a book
a book that i read
yep
I might have read the book someday, hypothetically
But my mother hating it plus that fucking movie
hrrgghhh

it ruled so much
I was pretty upset at that. Not gonna lie.
although to be fair they could have just killed themselves
i'm glad john hughes got the do-over right when he wrote some kind of wonderful though
That would probably have been even more heartbreaking to be honest. I'm a romantic at heart and it would have destroyed me.
DUCKIE LOVES HER
What the fuck is she doing with captain doucheypants!
(also her dress is secretly hideously ugly)

The Mist.
Holy shit, that ending was so depressing
hughes actually wrote the ending with duckie, but dumb studios made him change it basically
like how perfect is that?
Now I'm sad because it could have had the perfect ending
I mean how many opportunities do you get to be with someone so adorable

The funny thing is that Stephen King LIKED this ending.
Let's Play Final Fantasy 'II' (Ch10 - 5/17/10)
I liked the ending, too. Hell, I loved it.
But it was a definite kick in the balls if you cared for any of the main characters at all.
Which is sad because it's a very good game
and every one of his scenes is gold
