Spoiler alert.

Let me just start with that… In fact, let me say it again: spoiler alert!

If you don’t want to know how a number of today’s top films were supposed to end (and how they ultimately did), here is where we leave you.

Still there? Good.

We all know Kevin Spacey was Keyzer Soze, Soylent Green is people, Rosebud was a sled and the entire last act of Psycho was disturbingly awesome. However, for every good twist ending, there are some really, really bad ones. And as it turns out, there are some even more terrible ones we were spared the horror of watching, thanks to some quick-thinking executives and on-their-game test audiences.

Granted, in some cases, the endings that made their way to cinemas were the questionable ones -- and there’s nothing we can do about it except wonder what these people were thinking. A bad ending can completely ruin a good film, and with today’s plugged-in audiences, that can be damaging for a movie.

So here’s a look at 10 films that originally had different endings… for better or worse.
