I bet there's not many about. They all present doom and gloom and end usually on a doomier note. If you know of an alien movie that has a good ending (I'm not talking about the alien dying), or a horror film with a neat and happy ending, I'd like to know. I suppose ET has a happy ending, but then again, it was classed as a "kid's film". Not me saying that, but the box office. DON'T SHOOT THE MESSAGER!!   | ||

And, possibly, Destination Moon. _http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Destination_Moon_%28film%29. | ||

War of Worlds does have lots of death and destruction .... Star Trek usually has happy endings for the main characters (including resurrecting Spock!), but lots of carnage otherwise. Depends what you mean by "happy ending" ....... | ||

My System: Dreambox with PLi-Emerald 1.09 image, Matrix revolution CAS, newcamd emu, movable dish 0.85 m, very happy indeed | no no - in "the wrath of kahn" Spock is actually killed at the end by radiation when saving the Enterprise. Fans all over the world burst into tears when they heard this  .Okay, we didn't know then they were going to ressurect him in the next movie, but that hardly qualifies as a 'happy ending'. | ||

(Gone With the Wind has a "happy ending", but only after the USA civil war ......!). | ||
