Aside from the classic "Money Shot" I do not think so. American Cinema has lost itself. No originality or creativness anymore. They keep trying to pass off last decades classics as this years blockbuster hype. In the end they just have a bust without the block.

I disagree. I think they are becoming more creative about their endings, and it's not sitting well with everyone because we always expect a nice "happily ever after, The End" bow on every move we watch...

I was extremely upset by the nuber 23s ending, because I've been writing a book that I hope to get translated into a move, and it had a very similar ending... scratch that! damnit...
