So did Malik and Kristen get together at the end?


From what I remember they held hands and walked off together.. This was the same guy at the beginning she was scared of in the elevator and held her purse tight.



This is for Allah... and it's going way out there sucka...

Yes they did not walk away holding hands--but they probably became friends. They were staring at the Columbus statue in the middle of the quad (this was probably now the end of the semester which is odd but they had Fudge Ice Cube "walk" in a fall graduation ceremony--but maybe it was also end of spring term--the weather was certainly nice). Anyway, Malik mentions that he lost his girl here, Kristie Swanson blames herself, but he told her you can't. It is awkward kind of condolences and then Malik says I have to go and they part ways. Then he starts running as graduation music plays in the background, we see a montage of students graduation pictures (Ice Cube) and a marching band...then Professor Phipps walks out of a building on campus and under an American Flag they type out unlearn.

the end

I doubt they started dating. They probably became friends and I agree with another poster I don't think they remembered each other from the elevator.

please..they didnt even know each other. his girl just died and she's sexually confused. They didnt hook up

-Why?

But since she's sexually confused, it makes sense she'd bounce from a frat rapist to a libber woman, to a girly-boy with a penis and then to a black athlete.

Or maybe she'll just do the professor.




Aye. The haggis is in the fire for sure.

I don't think anyone in this movie could pull someone away from Jennifer Connely

No, they didn't do that. And she didn't remember that it was the same person from the beginning but he knew it was her.
