Spider-Man 2 has a cliffhanger?

Doctor Octopus may or may not have drowned.

No. Harry finds his father’s arsenal when he throws the knife into the mirror. I don’t consider Spider-Man 3 personal canon. It’s not that big of a cliffhanger, but I’ve always found it interesting to think about.

SONIC RACES THROUGH THE GREEN FIELDS.
THE SUN RACES THROUGH A BLUE SKY FILLED WITH WHITE CLOUDS.
THE WAYS OF HIS HEART ARE MUCH LIKE THE SUN. SONIC RUNS AND RESTS; THE SUN RISES AND SETS.
DON’T GIVE UP ON THE SUN. DON’T MAKE THE SUN LAUGH AT YOU.

It’s a sequel hook for sure, but I don’t think I’d really go so far as to call it a cliffhanger.

What are words if we don’t follow their definitions? A cliffhanger leaves the main character/plot hanging, so to speak. There are plenty examples of them without having to dip into the category of sequel hooks. They’re not quite the same thing so it dilutes the discussion to equate them.

Does the ending to The Graduate count as a cliffhanger?

The cliffhanger is if Dek will hold a reasonable opinion about the sequel.

SPOILER ALERT:

No.

I don’t consider the pre-title of “Diamonds are Forever” as a worthy or satisfying resolution!

I’m sure that Dom would be happy to be a total badass and explain.

Perhaps we should simply list the films with legitimate cliffhangers, since everyone is so hung up on the definition.

Listen, if we’re talking cliffhangers, you can bet we’re going to hang on the definition.
