What does Frank do next?

I think Frank moves on. He gets another identity. He starts a new life but his old life as a thief will always be just behind him. Who knows? He may have gone back to the old life for a few more scores. I definitely don't think he goes back to Tuesday Weld and the child. They are part of the past he has destroyed both literally and in his mind. He is a wanted man now and needs to keep them safe by staying away.

Why would you browse the forum, and threads in said forum, for a movie that you haven't even seen yet but has been out since 1981, if you don't want to be "spoiled"?
Not the sharpest knife in the drawer, are you? -

Never though of it until now, but "Thief" actually works pretty well as a prequel to "Heat", with Caan's character being DeNiro's before his "Don't let yourself get attached to anything" motto. So I guess the next thing Frank does is move to L.A., change his name to Neil McCauley, get together his own crew, and start putting up big scores.

Even though Frank get the bad guy he WONT go back to is wife. Frank lived by a certain code and once he deviated from that code the thugs took advantage of him so i doubt Frank would allow that to happen again

JCrusher723, you make a good point. Frank's take on life is very superficial, easily seen in the way he dealt with cops. He doesn't care if he has to die. But I do like to think - and note that I'm one of those people who prefer sad endings rather than the happily ever after ones - but there was also something in John's actions that point that he may actually go back to Jessie: he clearly ended the criminals, destroyed his house, bar and car dealership, and he made sure his friend Joseph was taking care of Jessie for the first 3 months, maybe because he wanted to make sure he knew where she was. He was keen on having a relationship with her, he wanted kids so much and his friends meant a great deal to him. But this could also point to his returning to heist.
It's really up to the viewer to decide; he was very adamant and straightforward while telling Jessie to leave, but now that his friend/partner is gone, he may as well go back to them. That's what I'm going for.

Gets arrested by the cops who are going to show up any second after hearing reports of multiple shots fired in a suburban neighborhood.
LOL to say nothing of the
multiple explosions at his businesses and home
in one night.
