Ike getting to live as always bothered me. I wish they would have shot him in the back at the end while he was running away on his horse.

I love it. Ike is the single worst character in movie history. He is villainous, stupid, cowardly, and incompetent. He is completely without any remotely redeeming quality, yet he survives the movie, because life ain't fair. There is nothing good about Ike.

He wasn’t killed in the Vendetta Ride, so...

He was shot dead not long after, just not by the Earps.

You do know this movie is based on historical events and not just a made up story?

You wish they would have majorly altered the historical story of what happened to give you better feels?

Now you know what Sansa meant when she said "the worst ones always live." Ike is a perfect example of the kind of sniveling piece of shite who always survives a world war, disaster, etc.

Plus, yeah, dude wasn't killed by the Erps.

WTF? The movie is based on real events.

That was your one complaint?

Not the various cartoonish or cliched depictions of the old west?

I like that Ike didn’t die in the movie. It’s kind of fitting with how big of a coward he is. He was so pathetic that his death isn’t a part of the story.

Me too, for all the shite he pulled, he throws his sash on the ground and they just let him ride away. Im sure he was still an a-hole after... which is why someone else killed him.

Me, too. Here are other things in movies that bothered me:

The Spartans losing the battle of Thermopylae at the end of 300. It would have been much better, had they won.

Michael Oher should have decided to go to a different school at the end of The Blindside.

The guy having to cut his own arm off in 127, was a little too much for my taste.

Did they really have to make Sean Penn's character gay in Milk?




Actually...I guess that was more sardonic than sarcastic...but it's hard to find a sardonic gif.


ETA...dagnabbit...just realized that was my 10,000th post and I wasted it on this crap.
