“Clue” (1985) -which ending do you prefer?
Clue is a classic murder mystery caper, but it was released with three different endings, only one of which is the best. Clue follows Mr. Boddy and his Butler as they host a dinner party for several dinner guests, all of whom work in or around government jobs, and none of whom completely know each other. They all have something in common, however: they're being blackmailed by Mr. Boddy, as he knows their darkest secrets. When the lights go out, and he's murdered, every guest becomes a suspect, as it was advantageous to any one of them if he was dead. What follows is a lot more murder and betrayal.
Which ending do you prefer?

The film only makes sense if it was everyone;
My love of Lesley Ann Warren makes me love the Scarlet ending;
My love of Eileen Brennan makes me love the Peacock ending (she's my favorite character in the movie);

I'd like to see a cut where 'Mr Boddy' is replaced by someone who can actually act--yes, I know he's a minor character, but his putrefyingly awful acting stinks up the entire picture.

Which is the one where Madeline Kahn says "Fl-... fl-... flames. On the side of my face. Heaving... heaving breaths"?
It is of course that one.

The everyone ending is the only one that makes sense, given how the plot unfolds.
Anyway, I'm going to go home and sleep with my wife ...
