9 Movies With Titles That Spoil Their Own Ending
Warner Bros.
A fun joke to have told your friends around the time that "Titanic" came out was, "Spoiler alert: The boat hits the iceberg!" I'm sure many, many people used that joke during the mid to late '90s, and all of them reaped the many benefits which followed, from more friends to more respect to a deeper appreciation of themselves as people.
Hell, making that joke even started Barack Obama's political career!
Indeed, not every movie is enjoyed just for its surprise ending. Some movie endings, in fact, are even built right into the title.
Here are nine that ask you to enjoy the journey, not the destination. Get More »

The 25 Most Essential '90s Movies
Miramax
There's a reason you've recently had the urge to bust out your plaid shirts, Celine Dion albums and dial-up modems, as this week sees the release of two relics of the 1990s: "Titanic 3D" and "American Reunion."
Since both of these movies make us think back to a more innocent time when Monica Lewinsky was an eager young White House intern, our money wasn't on fire and Twittering was a weird body tic, we're reminiscing about that decade's most influential and essential cinematic treasures for future generations. It wasn't easy to narrow down the list (next time, "Problem Child 2," next time ...) but if we were to preserve only 25 flicks from the '90s in a time capsule, they would be these (listed in alphabetical order).

Oscar's 13 Biggest Mistakes
Lionsgate
For every winner who leaps up to thank the Academy, at least four nominees stay behind -- and with them, countless audience members wondering why their favorites failed to snag the big award. But there are times when everyone -- maybe even the winner -- believes the wrong name was read and the Oscar should have gone to... someone else.
We've picked 13 unlucky times the Academy made a huge, irreversible mistake, whether out of misguided loyalty to an actor-turned-director, fear of bestowing the Oscar to a violent or controversial film, or for no discernible reason at all (in no particular order). Get More »
Before They Were Famous: Nathan Fillion in 'Saving Private Ryan'
DreamWorks
A man can't become a Geek God overnight. It takes years of sweat and toil – and those are just the soap opera years. Nathan Fillion knows all about the hard road and heartbreak one endures before they nab an iconic role like Captain Malcolm Reynolds.
Fillion began his career as Joey Buchanan on "One Life to Life" which earned him a Daytime Emmy nomination in 1996 (watch a clip here), and a desire to head west and seek his fortune in LA. In 1998, he nabbed two shiny gigs – a supporting role on the sitcom "Two Guys, a Girl, and a Pizza Place," and a feature film debut in Steven Spielberg's "Saving Private Ryan." Get More »
