Any help would be appreciated, thanks.
Maybe u should clarify what you mean by unresolved plot characters
Crap, I totally know that I saw one once where they totally just had thit throwaway subplot with no resolution at the end, but I can't remember what it was. I totally know what you're talking about, though.
Well, there was this one character in a Bugs Bunny cartoon who was supposed to show up and do a high dive act but he couldn't make it because of weather...
...his name escapes me, though
By "unresolved plot characters" I mean characters that are introduced into the movie , whether good or bad and then are later left out of the movie without resolution.
Better yet , if there are any movies with unresolved sub-plots that would even be better.
Most of the little mini-synopsis of movies have a lot of unresolved sub-plot (the movies, not the reviews)
That's just too broad a category
GINGER SNAPS has the mother just disappear about 10-15 minutes before the end of the movie. Same for the father.
Number one on this list for me is not a movie but a TV show.
WHAT THE HELL HAPPENED TO RICHIE AND JOANNIE'S BROTHER CHUCK ON HAPPY DAYS?????

Off the top of my head, there's the sub-character in Tombstone who idolizes Billy Zane's character, he was played by Jason Priestly. He sees Billy Zane shot later in the movie, refuses to go along with "Sherrif" Behan and Curly Bill Brosus, gallops off into the distance and we never see him again.
on a lower level, there's the boyfriend in the movie "Hackers". When they were all admiring Angelina Jolie's laptop, he leaves the room and never appears in the movie again.
Can't recall more than these, but there's definitely more.
Similarly, in the first episode of Twin Peaks they introduce a sister of Donna's who was never seen again.
Track of the Moon Beast - Professor Johnny Longbow is working with two students out in the desert. We're introduced to them, Johnny gives them his stew recipe and tells them a story, and then they pretty much disappear.
I remeber in the first episode of the Brady Bunch the girls had a kitty but in the next episode it was gone. I guess the dog ate it.
-the first rule of fat club-
No, the kitty's agent demanded too much money and fresh catnip daily in it's dressing room so the producers had the writers write it out of the storyline.
I think E! had a special on it, it was pretty nasty all around
Watching Tomestone now. Great suggestion, that movie has soo many holes in it I can't even begin to count.
I thank everyone here for their help. Thanks again and hopefully when anyone of you need assistance, I'll be able to provide the same.
speaking of the brady bunch, with the exception of the first episode, do the 'bunch' ever mention the ex's ever again in the series?
i don't think we ever find out what happened to them [with the exception of the movie of course]
Now that I remember, on "Family matters" the youngest son simply disappears from one season to another, never to be seen again.
They did that on Married . . .With Children also. Brought in a nephew, and dumped him pretty quickly.
Actually, with the Brady Bunch, it is the dog that disappears after he steals Cindy's doll, he is gone for ever. A One episode wonder.
I also believe that the Drew Barrymore film Riding in Cars With Boys, her best friend becomes pregnant, has an awful husband and creates a whole sub plot, and then, BAMF, she is gone forever.
The show 7th Heaven had a recurring character name Robbie who just disappears halfway through one season never to be mentioned again.
SPASMS is full of unresolved plots and characters. Peter Fonda sorta disappears for a big chunk of the movie. Peter Fonda is having an affair with Oliver Reed's wife and yet this is never mentioned by the characters when Fonda and Reed should be at each other's throats. At the beginning of the movie, we see a cult that worships snakes which is totally unresolved when the movie ends. In fact, they completely forgot about this plot-line. It's a chaotic and really bad movie.
Just watch "Carnivore" this week. Completely unresolved. A group of teenages (32 year olds) are attacked in a run down house/secret government lab. One is killed. They flee the house just as the police show up and are never seen again despite that fact we just watched them talk for 40 minutes. The police and gov then so up and one more person dies. The end.
Carnivore is a bad movie ( it's a student film I think) but really should be watched.
It is ED Wood like in it's problems.
I think I may have ended up liking it but you can't prove it.
