Oh my god. Demi Moore is going to be Wonder Woman, isn't she.

I don't think Demi has that much box office clout anymore (if she ever really did).

Sounds like a job for Mythbusters.

Either that or Titbusters.

edited for a missing "anymore".

Did anybody see the Slate article about the stupidest twist endings? It's funny, even if I don't agree with all of the opinions expressed. (Specifically, I liked "Fight Club" and "The Usual Suspects" and think I liked "The Game," but mostly don't remember it that well.)

My least favorite twists are "Identity" and "The Life of David Gale," but the latter is a very bad movie to start with.

Edit: Actually, the twist in "Hide and Seek" trumps all of the above. I'd blocked it out, that's how bad it was.

Edit the second: There are some spoilers in the article, so proceed at your own risk.

I like the suggestion of The Passion Of The Christ.

I haven't seen enough of the ones on his list, and I mean to, so I had to skim the article. I did like Unusual Suspects and Identity -- the latter wasn't that twisty. I mean, the movie doesn't make sense without an explanation, but it's just not the one you might have thought. Whereas The Game drove me nuts, because it's not sufficiently hinged on the "Oh! That's what it was!" at the end. It just shifted from dumb movie A to dumber movie B.

What's the twist in The Game?

Poor, degraded Buster.

Wouldn't they have to develop a Busterette to examine the exploding tit myth?

Oh come on, you know how much Buster likes to examine tits.

Maybe. I just get hung up on the fact that (as I think Jessica and I have each said a dozen times) it's the exact same twist as the stupid brother's screenplay idea in "Adaptation." Which makes me giggle now, but made me angry at the time.

I haven't seen Adaptation, LJ, so it didn't affect my enjoyment of the movie. Do the timelines work out for Identity to be cribbing?

What's the twist in The Game?

Primarily when the game ends, I think.

I rather liked The Game, but, then, I didn't think either part was sucky.

Plus, I want the T-shirt that Sean Penn gives Michael Douglas at the end. Also, Debra Kara Unger - mmmmmm.

The Game was what made me vow to avoid Michael Douglas movies from there on in. Still saw Traffic, and kinda regretted it. A teeny bit.
