A question/experiment for the people of AH

    So this may seem very strange but I'm hoping you can indulge me.
    I'm asking anybody who's bothered to answer a simple question, without reading the other replies to this thread or googling etc. Straight off the top of your head.
    I have a reason for asking but revealing it right now would influence peoples answers.
    As this is the most unscientific experiment ever conducted, and that this is After Hours, I am fully expecting plenty of witty and humorous responses (so don't let me down) but maybe work in your actual answer if you can.
    Thanks.

    So the question is: How does the movie Field of Dreams end?

    (just go with it)

    Sadly.




    I haven't seen it but I think Kevin Costner pulls off a rare survival, and that's always tragic.

    With rolling credits?

    They all came

    Hang on, that was Field Of Wet Dreams, the porn parody

    All his dreams come true. In the field.

    I'm gonna guess aliens.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 32,688 ✭✭✭✭ytpe2r5bxkn0c1


    Lots of people arrive for the game.




    I don't get this.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 22,609 ✭✭✭✭kneemos


    They all disappear in the cornfield.

    I remember a big crowd of people watching a game and someone pitching a ball with a big smile on his face.




    I think.

    Aliens create a crop circle and take Kevin Costner away to probe him anally :pac:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 81,060 ✭✭✭✭biko


    idk

    Hurry up and tell us what this experiment is, the suspense is mildly annoying me.

    OP Here. OK, ok, if people follow the first post it won't really matter now.

    This is why I wanted to conduct this little experiment:

    I think.

    That's exactly how I remember the end of the film. But it's not right. I watched this film on the TV last night and was waiting for this scene but it never came. I was left a bit confused. I thought at first I had just mis-remembered the film after it being sometime in the mid 90's when I last saw it.

    Then I went to the IMDB message board for the film and found this crazy post http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0097351/board/flat/248273463?p=1

    And now I don't know if I'm losing my mind or not.

    Does anybody else have SHARED "incorrect" memories of things with others?

    Ok, clicked straight to the end, so haven't looked.

    I've seen the film though, so I know how it ends:
    with Costner and the ghost of his dad playing catch while multiple headlights indicate that the crowds will arrive in droves to his baseball field in the corn.

    Ah, the Play It Again Sam effect.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 43,038 ✭✭✭✭SEPT 23 1989


    Miles of car headlights heading towards the field

    He built it and the motherfcukers came

    I've definitely misremembered movie scenes.Bit odd it should be shared though.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 33,782 ✭✭✭✭RobertKK


    I never saw the movie but presume it ends with telling us who appeared in the movie, the director, all the people involved in the production along with the year it was made. The name and singer of the songs.
    Maybe a 'The End' at the very end, but probably not.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2, Paid Member Posts: 14,295 ✭✭✭✭The Iron Giant


    In a post credits scene, Nick Fury comes out and asks Kevin Costner to join The Avengers.

    That's what I was thinking. I was completely ok with having the wrong memory of the ending until I saw that I'm not the only one with the same memory.

    Mr Not Going Forwards mentioned the Play it again Sam effect, but isn't that more of a phrase related thing? This is a whole visual scene

    Anything to be said for a boards-smoke-up?
