    The grandiose ending where they become a king and a queen felt unnecessary and forced, What's wrong with a humble simple end?, Like spending their life in the wall for example, The whole royalty thing wasn't needed and in fact it took away from the film for me.
    Just imagine shawshank redemption ending with andy and red winning a lottery, Becoming millionaires and spending their lives in a mansion in beverly hills, Yeah sure it's not the worst ending for characters you rooted for, But it wouldn't have replicated the great satisfaction and down to earth feeling we had when we saw andy fixing an old boat and red coming to meet him.
    Yes i know it's supposed to be a fairy tale, But that chunk of the fairly tale should've been discarded.

      I don't like the end much either- and I tend to not watch to the end, but just stop after they defeat the witch, etc.
      I think it goes on too long-,up to them having g/children and becoming stars.
      It has a nice feel in away, but like you said it just feels a bit too much.
      Like it leaves nothing to your imagination.
      Having said that, this is a fairy tale, it's the 'happy ever after' very different from a film like shawshank.

        The book's end was imo better. Obvious book spoilers:
        They can't make children, Yvaine doesn't age, Tristran dies and Yvaine remains around. It's a middle of the ground end, nor very happy not very sad. Similar to the Aragorn-Arwen end.

          I have not read the book but I know that since they can't make children and then Tristran dies that is a very sad ending. I would much rather have the ending for the movie.
          "Baby sister, I was born game and I intend to go out that way"

            To some extent it's a matter of preference. Personally I love unique endings like the ones in stardust and lord of the rings.

              The book ending sounds like a horrible ending, for anyone younger; but, so it the damn gay agenda.
              The way we're, seemingly, flooded with this (social) sickness -especially- in recent times is abhorring. It's one thing to have De Niro dress like a fairy, but that ending.. Ah, forget it, I can't even talk about it.
              Instead of enslaving children, by law, to have same sex "married" parents - we should be passing laws to protect the population against this indoctrination. Appalling.
              P.S. Before you start, this is WAY different than showing murder, or rape, on film. We HAVE laws and systems in place to guard society against antisocial behavior (another RIDICULOUS new-speak term that's in use).
              Oh and just by the way, how is it not "anti-social" then to have two men groping each other in public (it's sick to even read it, isn't it), living in a Christan state (a state of ANY religion, actually). For crying out loud, stop the madness.

                The royal thing was somehow mandatory otherwise it would have been a plot hole. He WAS the last male descendant of the dynasty. Which was quite obvious since the beginning, since Una said she was a princess. And it has been confirmed later that she was the missing sister. One may not like it but at least it does fit with the story.

                  Well, it was a fairy tale, so it needed a fairy tale ending. I thought it was very fitting.
