All three endings are included with the home release, but when this classic motion picture was released in the theatres, they would randomly show one of them. Which was your favourite?

Which is your favourite ending of Clue (1985)?

I always prefer an ending in which everyone is terrible, so I like the third ending. It seemed to best sum-up each character.
Such a close call between #1 and #3. The Miss Scarlet ending has the 1+2+2+1 and the chandelier callback, but the third ending has Mrs. White's flames speech and the Mr. Green stuff.
Gonna go with the final ending, but arguably the Miss Scarlet solution makes more logical sense.
(The Mrs. Peacock ending kinda sucks. Less funny than the other two and doesn't make a lick of sense.)

How did I not know there were 3 endings??!!
I've seen this movie multiple times, but they've been years apart, I don't even remember which endings I've seen....or if it's just one. š¤Æ

I would have *killed* to have been able to experience this in the theaters with randomized endings.
Such a fantastic movie.

I like the third one just because it says "I killed Mr Body in the hallway with the revolver"
I just watched this movie last night for the first time so this thread is perfect timing.

It's the most memorable line in the movie. Astonishing that it wasn't in all versions.
If you saw it at home, there's a pretty good chance you saw them all. The home video releases show each one, with interstitial cards that says "This is how it could've happened..." and "This is how it really happened..." or something like that.
The endings were randomized in the theatrical release.
honestly would have preferred just one of 'em. when it gets to the endings part of the movie, i start getting bored. i can only take so much of lengthy character explanation. "and then SO AND SO was HERE! and the lamp fell RIGHT HERE! and" yada yada yada. i know, i'm no fun.
I like Scarlet's for the dialog.
But I love Peacock's for the zaniness of it compared to the others.
The "real" ending of Green being an FBI agent is boring by comparison. His apparently not being homosexual and using it as a cover also kind of didn't sit right with me, even if it's timely.
The best line is still:

After watching all 3 youtube videos I think I have seen them all. The only one I remembered was the 1st one though. I know for a fact I've seen #1 and #2, and #3 was familiar too.
"I'm gonna to go home and sleep with my wife" is one of the best lines in the movie, so of course that ending is the best one.

The Crazy Story Of How "Clue" Went From Forgotten Flop To Cult Triumph
That a high-concept, fast-talking farce based on a board game was a box office bomb in 1985 is no huge mystery. But figuring out how it became an enduring favorite is a Hollywood whodunit for the ages. (The prime suspect: you, in the living room, with the remote control.) UPDATED in Dec. 2015...
