    so all the other movies where all the action follows a set pattern… are not boring and depressing?

      Boring movies are boring.

      Most people prefer their stories generally ending on a positive note, and then once in a while go for a darker one, if they’re in the mood for it. And yes sometimes we need one of these.

      But every movie being a heroic sacrifice or a downer ending, even if they’re good, would be depressing. And then it would start losing power quick, too.
