Who else was disappointed with the ending? Hooch was so great and then he died and it was really sad (I admit I got a bit choked up). But then...oh, great...Hooch's girlfriend had puppies and one of them is just a miniature version of his father...eh. This didn't make me any less sad about Hooch's death. Hooch cannot be replaced.
shareNo, the Douge De Bordaux was not one of the litter of pups that his GF/Wife had! It ws another DDB that was a "chip off the old block", and had the same destructive tendencies as Hootch did.
shareWhen Tom Hanks started repeating his dialogue from the first part of the film, I got really psyched, hoping Hooch was still alive. Then, when I see some other midget version of Hooch, I just thought: meh.
shareI thought the ending was great. Hooch died a hero and had a complete arc.
It's not supposed to make you less sad about Hooch's death. It's supposed to make you happy that Turner has grown. It's showing how his character has changed from the beginning of the movie.
