I can't believe...

...that I've sat and watched the turgid excrescence that is A.I.. Again.

I want the last hour of my life back. Again.

I've promised myself that if I watch it again, I'll get up and walk out when the kid is stuck at the bottom of the sea looking at the "blue fairy".

Then I can miss the last 40 minutes which fucked it up completely.

That was why I watched it again. After ranting about it to sneerpout, I had an awful feeling that I was being unfair to the film, so I watched it again to see if I'd missed something in the last forty minutes that justified the Close Encounters ending.

I was wrong.

Having said that, I now realise that they're not aliens, but the descendents of the robots, but it's still a shit ending.

Really?! I didn't pick up on that either.

If memory server me correctly it conveniently fades to black for a second at that point too. Just to make it obvious that this is the "real" end of the story.
