I thought it followed the book pretty close until the last 10 minutes

Why the HELL did they change the ending from the book ending? If you remember from the book
Ben Richards got the plane and flew it directly into the building killing everyone including Killian.
. I can understand why they changed it (9/11 vibes)
but they do elude to it when Ben is on the plane "What are you gonna do, fly the plane into the The Network building?".
I thought it was a solid 8/10 because if you had read the book you'll know most of what transpired happened in the book.
The Arnold cameo cracked me the hell up.
