In the version I watched, he told his girlfriend that he didn't like her anymore as a kid and at the very end, he passed her in the street with them barely missing each other. (God that part was sad, lol.) Pretty sure I watched the theatrical version.

The question is which ending di you think was unstasifying? The one that they showed in theatres or the one people have told me is on the special edition version? Anyway, I think the term "Butterfly Effect," at least in the case of this movie is not in reference to Edward Lorenz's Chaos theory of the same name, but has it's origins in "A Sound of Thunder", a short story by Ray Bradbury. There are some who believe Lorenz called it the Buttefly Effect because of Bradbury's short story and anyone having read it will definitely see the reasons. I strongly suggest <a href="http://www.sba.muohio.edu/snavely/415/thunder.htm" rel="nofollow">you read the short story</a> rather than ask me to explain why ... it's short. <a href="http://asoundofthunder.warnerbros.com/" rel="nofollow">Or you can wait to watch the butchery </a> that Hollywood will release "based" on it. I suspect they kept enough of the original story to at least give the reason for the disaster. I really enjoyed this movie. The question is which ending di you think was unstasifying?

Still doesn't make it any less of a bummer though. :/ Yeah, the ending was pretty damn sad and unsatifying, but I think it fit the movie well. Still doesn’t make it any less of a bummer though. :/

Sort of a non-satisfying ending, but what the hell. Thought this movie was really great. Sort of a non-satisfying ending, but what the hell.
