What's wrong? Really!?

Why does a death in a movie has to mean it is a sad ending?

Why is it that, in a movie, when the so called main character departs/leaves/breaks up/anything along the line with their loved ones, it is said that it is a sad ending? A sad conclusion. Why is that?

I'm not being pessimistic or sadistic here, i'm just thinking something out of the box(something i usually do). It's not that there's anything wrong with the movies nowadays, just that i get sick watching the faces of people in the cinemas and also tired of feeling the same feeling when a sad scene happens.

Lately i have lost interest in all the things i used to enjoy myself with. Like watching movies, playing games, chatting with friends and eating. Oh wait, i still love eating. Thank god.

Okay, back to what i was talking about.

I was only wondering, why isn't departing or dying a happy thing? ahahaha. That is me laughing my ass off at myself for writing and thinking stuffs like this. But yeah, sometimes when the ending scene is happening, and you can see the antagonist dying, sacrificing himself/herself for the sake of his/her loved ones, talking slowly and telling them how much he/she loved them. To me that is a happy ending. Don't you?

I mean so what they're dying. Everybody is going to die sooner or later. No matter how hard and how long we try to stave it off, it is inevitable. Even the mightiest fall. So why can't we accept that and move on. Why can't we think of it as a big finale. No comebacks and no encore. We'll just leave the world wanting more. Wouldn't that be great?

But perhaps, i think not many out there has the optimistic beliefs like i do.

Oh well, back to watching Lord Of the Rings.
