So... The issue I'm having with thrillerz at the moment...
1.I was watching ONE MISSED CALL yesterday...and it started off good as Thrillerz do...
You're thinking OMG what's going on... etc... etc...
It literally draws you in ....
But then once you kinda get what's going on, you're like oooh,
they want me to think A'z the Killer but I know itz the one you least suspect...
So you spend the time you should be following the storyline OBSESSING over who the actual killer is;
in your mind the killer must be B...
It turnz out the killer is C...
but it's not so shocking because you knew that the person they wanted you to believe was the killer wasn't...
That's the greatness of a Thriller the twisty turny bits, you never really trully understand it till the end... But then because we've all watched enough thrillers in our lifetimez to kno itz not as simple as it lookz, the endingz however surprising, dn't seem surprising at all...
2.Another thing I've recently noticed is when you know the Thrillerz leading you in a certain direction
and you're going for it,
thinking that it's as simple as it claimz to be.
Why shouldn't it be, it'z a great storyline, you're loving it...
You get to the end and they just turn everything on itz head,
and it turnz out everything isn't as it appearz, and you're thinking WHAT?!
It was a great storyline, why destroy it with that horrible ending!!
And finally... before I cum to the end of my little rant!! I HATE RUBBISH ENDINGZ... ENDINGZ THAT JUST LEAVE YOU THINKING... WHAT A BLOODY WASTE OF TIME!!...
3.So bk to my example of ONE MISSED CALL....
The ending was just tragic (and not in a gd way)... I didn't understand it.
Not everyone can be Stephen King, and have the ability to leave an ending so open, that it has 100'z of interpretationz but it still somewhat makes sense.
I think this is what One Missed Call tried to do.. but in my eyes they failed MISERABLY!!
Thrillerz dn't have to be so twisty. Let's take it bk to SIMPLICITY! I mean itz time to bring back originality.... N not just say 'Oh we'll make the ending one they don't suspect' and it'll be a great thriller...
I honestly haven't quite put my finger on what makes a great thriller.... But whatever you people are doing... is just ruining the genre....
DON'T GET ME WRONG THERE ARE MANY GREAT THRILLERZ
I JUST THOUGHT I'D POINT OUT WHAT'Z WRONG WIT SUM!!
SIMPLICITY AND ORIGINALITY
LET'Z GET BK TO BASICZ
