speaking of modified TV endings (warning, thread hijack). One of the local stations showed Brazil on TV back in the early 90's. I was watching it, and it gets towards the end where the main character escapes and is driving away with the girl in the truck. Then the credits rolled. WTF?!?!?! That ending totally destroys the whole message of the movie? They cut the last 5 minutes where he comes out of the fantasy and is still in the torture chair. I tried to call and complain for about a half hour and never got through. i think I wasn't the only one that was pissed. Terry Gilliam was probably under heavy sedation to be able to make it through that edit...
