I almost threw up twice during the movie, but I then swallowed the barf because if I did, my mom would return the tape to the library. So, after I went through all the disgustingness, and Blibo Baggins being Jack The Ripper, Johnny goes and dies on me! AAHH! I flipped after that and cried for two hours until two in the morning. And then I was really crabby and mad at Johnny for three days, but I couldn't stay mad at him for any longer. What the 'hell' were your reactions to the movie plus the ending? Please do share! Maybe I won't feel so squeamish...sniffle...drugs are bad...

I thought the ending was a bit on the sad side, it was a good ending, but I really would of loved to see a different ending. But for the most part, I didnt get sick, I jus.. got sad

OMG lol that to creepy it was on this weekend on FX and I was watching it like from the middle of the film even though I already own this film and I saw the guy that played Jack the Ripper and I kept thinking to my self "I know I have seent this guy somewhere else but where?" and now I remember that he played Bilbo lol that is kind of creepy. But yes I totally did not really like this ending of the movie. Because Johnny died and he never hooked up with Mary-Kelly I hated the lose of Romance in this film most because I really wanted there to be romance in here and yet every time you felt like there was even a chance of that happening it just goes away. But honestly I can not be to hard on the film people because that is how the way they wanted it to end and Johnny's job is to just follow what they want for the most part. But its still depressing. But I do like the movie anway. By the way did anyone else notice that abberlines partner was the guy who is still playin Hagrid. lol I thought that was kind of cool. Even though I have no clue what that guys name is. and Blibo Baggins being Jack The Ripper, quote]

lol this movie could seriously scare fantasy genre movie fans. by its odd mix of people from recent fantasy films and the goreyness of the film. lol as much as I love the film that fact is still creeping me out.

Ya I knew it was Jack The Ripper by the voice...my sis & I were like OOOOOO during one part & then we knew. If you listen you can tell. Well it helped that we are big fans of LOTR so we knew his voice already.
Ya when I watched it on TV the other day, Ifinally realized the ending. When I had bought it & watched it at home, i never realized he was NEVER gonna go see her anyway. I guess I didnt notice him tearing the letter. I thought that freakin sucked!! I thought he really was gonna meet her, then at the last min. HAD to do the drug thing & then died. I didnt catch that he actually wanted to die...hehe stupid me. Should have realized he had those 2 coins in his hand for a reason... Thats why I need to see things more than once for them to actually compute.

I think the ending was good just because of the dreary tone the movie had from the very beginning. The whole thing is in the midst of the Industrial Revolution (very dirty), and on the cusp of a new century, and I just thought it fit.
On the other hand, as much as I like to see Johnny die in his movie roles (just because he's so good looking and people think he shouldn't), I thought that that might have been unnecessary. Was it needed for the movie? Yes. Am I going to make a fic out of an alternate ending. Probably. Abberline's just to fascinating to give up.
