Has there ever been a plot twist that genuinely shocked you?

The Wicker Man (original) yeah it's pretty obvious now but I saw it at a young age.

But Life of Pi conclusion wasn't bullshit he made up but the coping mechanism he produced to deal with real tragedy.

For me, its Usual Suspects.

I've posted about it a couple of times. It's one of my all time favorites. Shame it's not better known.

So it was a product of his imagination for coping with what happened, but wasn't somehow bullshit? I don't quite follow, sorry

>Usual Suspects
kek, I figured it out in 5 minutes and shut it off, how daft are you?

Oldboy's twist really got me when I watched for the first time at 19yo.
The twist with that little russian orphan girl was also pretty good.

Can't recall any other twist that got me.

The Phantom Menace, when Qui-Gon died at the end. Not because it was a stunning plot twist in the traditional sense of the word, but because it was then that you realized that the movie was coming to a close, and it still felt that it hadn't really got started yet. Nothing had been explained or had come together.

Sharp Objects
[spoilers]I knew there was something off about Amma, but the Adora Munchmommy storyline totally sidetracked me.[spoilers/]

I remember watching the film, knowing there was some big twist in it, and felt like I figured out what the twist was in the first few minutes and turned it off as well, thinking it was way too obvious or something. I don't remember what I thought that the twist was but now I'm thinking that maybe the thing I thought would be the twist was actually a red-herring and that the actual twist would be better.
Fuck, I hate it when I know beforehand that a film has some big twist. Ruins it for me

It was real for him, instead of him bullshitting. There is a difference.

First time i watched fight club my mind was blown.

More like 13, but you were close. I still consider it a solid movie tho.

>it was real in my mind
wow just like my bibis holocaust stories

The end of Saw was pretty surprising and well implemented. Same with 2, but after there it got too convoluted to be believable.

What film, I want to watch it now

Yes, it was in this.

The audience gasped.

Martyrs' twist in the middle of the movie, not really shocking, but unexpected.

it's a pretty dry legal drama up until the ending hits.

What a nice movie, I enjoyed watching it

I wonder what it must be like to be this much of a brainlet

Attached: file.png (2000x1000, 2.26M)

yall have small brains. the story is about religion. I haven't seen the movie, but I read the book, and the whole point of the story can be summed up with, "Why are people obsessed with reality?" people try to explain religion logically, but really it doesn't need to be. if you find comfort, or joy, from these stories, why do people try point out the fantastic elements of them as somehow being a negative aspect of religion.

basically, his whole story is an allegory for religion. some people, like the interviewers, are only concerned with the facts, and don't see the message or beauty of the story, nor do they care. this is pointed out by the fact, that one of the first things they say to him after he finished his story is that,"bananas don't float".

so in the end, it's more of a, "Choose which one you want to believe, and if one enhances your life in a meaningful way, go with it, regardless of how real it is"

TOTAL RECALL, idk if im dumb, but that actually completly surprised me

The Place Beyond the Pines definitely shocked me when I first saw it but I wasn't crazy about it as a whole.

Big Smoke turning out to be SLJ's bitch.

the Prestige could be taught in film school as an example of a SHIT twist.

I get why you thought it was clever, but it really wasn't and there's much more interesting lessons to be learnt about why it wasn't.

>if you find comfort, or joy, from these stories, why do people try point out the fantastic elements of them as somehow being a negative aspect of religion.

well there are all those times when people got killed over them for one thing...

Sixth Sense

no, you brainwashed slug. in those cases the violence is based on the ideology, not the religion, or the religion is used as an excuse for the furthering of a political agenda.

Nice. You get to enjoy life to the fullest.

Right cause it's soooo common for con men movies to have secret fake kids come in and trick them. Rockwell leaving, sure. But you're a lying sack of shit if you're trying to say you saw the daughter twist also.

>Nothing had been explained or had come together

is /nu-tv/ plagued with brainlets?

As opposed to trying to get rid of his own corpse every night, yeah that seems much smarter and safer. At least if some law enforcement sees all the clones you can say well shit i had no idea they all look like me i have no idea whats going on blah blah.

Sleepaway Camp had an ending that genuinely surprised me.

Islam is not a religion. Read some of the hadith to understand shariah. It's a feudal system that has long overstayed its welcome on planet earth.

The twist was the twins you fucktard. That and he was committing suicide not creating copies.

Dragged across concrete.
I was pretty shocked that Mel had a gun on a guy's throat but still got shot. It was disguised with a bunch of sloppy jump cuts but yeah, most shocking twist I seen for a while.
Absolute dogshit film that makes less sense the more you think on it.

What happens?

I guess not a twist in the literal sense, but her character is chaotic as fuck for the first 45 minutes. Bonus, you get to see her juicy tits.

What the fuck, they made a show out of the book? How the fuck did that pass me by?

I saw ‘The Usual Suspects’ in a local movie theater in the day it opened, at the second or third showing, after getting out of school for the day.
I had no clue what the movie was about, and only decided to go see it due to the cast, and the poster.
It was KINO and well worth the $7 or whatever it cost.
If ypu don’t like TUS then you read too much about the movie before hand, or have bad taste.

The problem with the twists in Prestige is that they seem surprising when you see it the first time, but when you think about it none of it made sense. For example, why would the MC be obsessed with finding out how the villain does the trick? He already knows about the laboratory and there's no reason for him to assume the villain hadn't visited it too. There's other problems like that too, where the characters know things the audience doesn't, which make their actions completely illogical when you think about the plot in hindsight.

Because if you are going to say the earth is flat you can keep it deep inside your arse.

I figured out this movie within the first 30 minutes, but I’m from rural Pennsylvania so shit like Quaker colonies isolating themselves from modern society and fear mongering about what’s on the outside isn’t uncommon.

>The twist with that little russian orphan girl was also pretty good.
?

I was surprised that the Goose was only in it for a quarter of the film. Pretty good movie regardless.

The ending of SAW 1. Because I'm a brainlet.

KINO, but I believe it was based on, or the story stolen from, an earlier movie.
I forget which one though.

The MC gets his girlfriend pregnant, she breaks up with him after saying she's having an abortion. He sees her 8 months later heavily pregnant and she gets a futuristic restraining order put in place to stop him seeing her or the kid. He remembers she goes to her dad's cottage in Scotland during the winter and visits every year, where he knows she has the kid but they can't interact. The ex dies in an accident, lifting the restraining order, meaning he can see the kid (now 3 and a half) who has been living in the remote cottage with the grandfather. The kid is of a different racial descent, meaning the ex cheated on him. He confronts the grandfather and accidentally kills him, then flees the cottage.

The kid finds her grandfather dead, doesn't know how to contact help, and tries to make the journey to the nearest town after 2 days, but freezes to death in a blizzard. Put yourself in the kids shoes, 3.5 years old, finding your grandfather dead, no one around, constant blizzard outside...genuinely the most upsetting thing I can imagine, especially as a father.

>depressed = nihilists
>nihilists don’t enjoy life
>”read a book”
You are like a parody of an early aughts internet brainlet.

I think that user was implying that when you're stupid and easy to fool, all these movie twists are a wonderful surprise. I'm similarly jealous of people that enjoy bottom-of-the-barrel movies in general. Imagine how much comedy there is out there to delight you when you're into the Medea movies or Larry the Cable Guy.

Elevator scene from Infernal Affairs.

The bank scene from Dragged Across Concrete

no

Also why couldn't they let the one in love with Scarjo only meet Scarjo and the other one only meet his wife?

nice projection brainlet

It’s the Amish that isolate themselves from Modern Society, not the Quakers.
The Quakers still have active meeting houses all over the place, including several blocks from Independance Hall, which is in the heart of Center City Philadelphia.
The Amish also venture into the city, since a bunch of them work in the Reading Terminal Market in Center City Philly, and go elsewhere in the City to shop.
I wouldn’t be surprised if some of the rural Pennsylvanians from the former Coal towns are more shut off from modern society than the Amish.
There are even Amish websites.

The PC is actually Revan in KOTOR 1.

Frailty. Won't spoil it, it stars Matthew Mcconaughey and directed by Bill Paxton it's fucking great.

Because it's stupid. They would see and hear airplanes. The line about "restricted airspace" was a nice try. I can see a billionaire bribing politicians to do that. But it would only last for ten years. Not twenty, definitely not thirty. That's multiple generations of politicians that wouldn't give a fuck. You would need a billionaire on the outside working and bribing to keep the secret.

I wasn't expecting the first twist in The Handmaiden but after that happened I did expect it to twist back around

The movie is full of holes but I actually like it and its fun seeing Adrien Brody play a retard
