It actually felt to me like they were trying to make the ending to 3 feel like a happy ending. Which...it wasn't. It was very sad. (That kid...)

If they'd tried to make it feel sad, it might have worked. I hadn't even really thought of it from that angle. I don't think it would have gone over well with the fanbase though.

Huh, you know, that's a good point. Maybe the problem really was that it read to me so strongly as a tragic ending, but they were trying to play it as non-tragic, so it broke up.
It's a shame, because I think that with the way the story went, these movies might have been a lot more powerful with a high tragedy ending. But you're right, people would have probably flipped their shit.

Together we can be sad about the lack of sads.

(I don't even really like sad endings in general. But it might have been a good direction for the series to go in. I probably would have hated it back in high school if they'd pulled a truly tragic ending, but now I think I'd appreciate it.)

Haaaha sad at the lack of sads. I love it.

Yeah, see, the irony is that I don't like tragic endings myself either! But sometimes I see something that pulls off tragedy in the Greek sense, you know catharsis and everything.
Idk, maybe I'm talking shit and would have hated it anyway XD I just wish they'd have committed. If they're going for a happy ending, go for it. If tragedy, then go for it. If bittersweet, then fucking go for it. This was just kind of meh halfway to nowhere for me.
