Perhaps you should list why you think it's a good ending. You don't need to give spoilers, just a brief description. A list of titles makes for a boring thread.

The Departed (don't know how not to ruin this)
Shawshank (as stated above by absolute zero)
Tropic Thunder (the bridge, hilarious)
Blair Witch (scary and wtf)
Donnie Darko (head spinning ending)

Grimm Love: The final cannibal scenes are enough to warrant a watching of the film.
Little Miss Sunshine: Encapsulates the message of the whole film
Pink Flamingos: The ultimate grossout ending

Reservoir Dogs: the only time when the occurence of everyone dying at the end (except for mr pink) is awesome

Dr Strangelove: YEEEEEEEEEEEEHAAAAAAAAAHHHHHH WHOOOOOOOOO

2000 A Space odyssey: giant celestial baby

Brick: the credits if that counts as the end because sister ray just works perfectly in that

My Fair Lady: Eliza! Where the devil are my slippers?

The Graduate: that bus...

Breakfast at Tiffany's: thank god they found that cat

Roman Holiday: because i love to cry alright, shut up

Sabrina: Bogart is ugo and the moment is cheesy but fuck you i cry easy ok

Les Quatre Cents Coups: i think what they did for the ending there would only work for that film, any other and you would think it was stupid.

A Bout de Souffle: BOOM, flat on the ground

Baisers Voles: lol at the stalker

Wait, you're a chick, and you LIKE that ending? He's a womanising, pretentious, self absorbed arsehole! In the original Pygmalion she doesn't go back to him, and it's a HAPPY ending, because the bastard gets what he deserves for being a prick and Liza gets Freddy! Epic movie producer fail...


Ok my films

Fight Club - "You met me at a strange time in my life" - enough said

Memento - The mindfuck to end all mindfucks

se7en - Morgan Freeman's face when he opens the box, and the perfectsness of the plan

The Prestige - Christopher Nolan once again blew my mind with that film

Donnie Darko - another mindfuck

Transformers - because it took them THAT long for the Autobots to use the line "More than meets the eye"

Hot Fuzz - friggin hilarious.

Shawshank Redemption - made me feel warm and fuzzy... particularly when the warden blew his brains out. (sick, I know)

Star Trek: Nemesis - because I never excpected that certain person to die...

Romeo + Juliet (Baz Lurhmann's version)

As Romeo put the lethal substance to his lips (whatever it was), Juliet woke up from 'death'. Then he dies in her arms, and she shoots herself. The scene is beautiful in the massive mausoleum, candles everywhere.

At the very end is when they carry out the bodies in shrouds.

Amazing.

Another vote for Memento (holy shit, good ending), The Departed, Se7en and Fight Club. Except I'd extend "the end" of Fight Club to be like the last third of the movie because of what might be the least secret and yet most awesome twist ever.

Also: Inglourious Basterds for the sheer "fuck history" factor and metatextual winks, In Bruges for Ralph Fiennes vs. Colin Farrell :)D) and for the all the feeling in the last lines, and Slumdog Millionaire for something happy.

The ending of Perfume still makes me go :spzz: especially the massive orgy bit.
Keeping Mum another unexpected ending.
