From: RayDyn | #008So long as an ending makes sense, I couldn't give a f*** if it is happy, sad, or ambiguous.
If it's thematically and emotionally inappropriate to what came before it, that's what's going to get me the most.
Agreed. The worst endings are always the "shocking swerves." So you've got a happy story where everything's alright and the good guys are doing really well? BAM, all the main characters die and everyone's sad. Same thing with a tragic story that suddenly ends in a wonderful note out of nowhere.
Though I assume that's what Ray was getting at.
