    Why is predictable a bad thing? I've never understood this. If predictable was a bad thing, why do people continue to put of productions of Shakespeare and attract huge crowds? We all know Romeo and Juliet are going to die, but we go anyway.

    I wasn't saying predictability was a ba thing. Not really. I personally like to know what's going to happen. Most of the time. i didn't know it was going to end like that though. i really thought they were going to lose.

    But if they had lost, it would've upset you (or most people, anyway) and so they didn't lose.

    Your tone was that of a big-time kvetch.

    It would have been more existential.

    Btw, I think most stories are fairly predictable, but I like a few surprises along the way. Especially at the climax, where I thought the movie really lacked.
