Because I like plot twists, I decided to look what Wikipedia had to say about it. They named a few stories with famous twist endings, such as The Sixth Sense. Unfortunately though, they also revealed the end to Fight Club. I haven't seen it yet, so the ending is kind of spoiled for me. Although I did expect this to happen after I read the story of Fight Club and the things people had to say about it, it's still a kind of a bummer to know what's going to happen.
This lead me to writing this, because this case is one of the few where I read the ending of a story NOT on purpose. See, every time I watch a movie that could be remotely scary, I read the ending of the movie. This makes it less scary to watch, but even better: It makes it more fun.
I know that a lot of people will disagree, but here's my point: If you watch a film with a plot twist at the end, you've got to watch the whole film again, to look for clues that foreshadow the ending. Now, most people won't watch a film twice in a row because that takes too long, and it is boring. So without knowing, you could have missed a lot of clues. And for me, noticing clues is what a story is all about.
Example: If you know a character is going to make something explode in the last scene but you don't know how, it's fun to look for things that can lead to the explosion. By doing this, you could possibly create a whole new story.
