How It Should Have Ended
How It Should Have Ended (HISHE) is an animated webseries that parodies popular films by creating alternate endings and pointing out various flaws. Endings for many major movies have been presented, using the tagline ‘sometimes movies don't finish the way we'd like’.

History
How It Should Have Ended began after Daniel Baxter and Tommy Watson started discussing alternate endings for a movie they had watched. In 2005 their first animation How Matrix Revolutions Should Have Ended was completed and soon after in July 2005 the website was established.[1] Christina "Tina" Alexander,[2] who has previously worked with Daniel, joined the team shortly thereafter.
HISHE was awarded the "Best Internet Parody" award for How Superman Should Have Ended by Spike TV at the 2006 Scream Awards at the Pantages Theater Hollywood, California.[3] and was featured in an MTV Comedy and Talent Showcase at the Hollywood Improv. It has also been featured as a Yahoo! Profile Pick and has appeared in both Fade In and Wired magazines.[4]
On March 5, 2007 HISHE was launched on YouTube as HISHEdotcom. It has attracted notable appearances such as Stan Lee himself in the parody of The Amazing Spider-Man.[5]
In September 2009 How It Should Have Ended joined Starz Digital Media which now handles all licensing. In April 2010, How It Should Have Ended was awarded the Streamy Award for Best Animated Web Series at the Orpheum Theatre in Los Angeles.[6][7]
On June 30, 2013, a video was uploaded on TheFineBros channel which features the Teens React teens watching the Lord of the Rings, Harry Potter, and The Hunger Games HISHE Videos.
In November 2013, Batman and Superman from "Super Cafe" guest starred in the Nostalgia Critic's review of Man of Steel, at the end of the episode where The Critic parodies Super Cafe. HISHE also featured in the Screen Junkies series Honest Trailers in the episodes about The Hobbit: The Battle of the Five Armies and Star Trek Into Darkness.
Interestingly enough, HISHE sometimes predicts things from the movies it "HISHE's". In the HISHE for The Amazing Spider-Man 2, the short predicts that Spider-Man will appear in Avengers: Infinity War and that Vision would die in the Doctor Strange HISHE.
Statistics
As of July 12, 2020, HISHE had 9.75 million subscribers and 2,717,173,817 views.[8] At the same time, HISHE had amassed over 284,000 likes on its Facebook account,[9] over 132,000 followers on its Instagram account[10] and over 30,000 followers on its Twitter account.[11]
Critical reception
HISHE has received many positive reviews[12][13][14][15] about its animation and alternate endings to popular movies. IMDb gave it a rating of 8.3/10 from 2,484 users.[16] Some of the parodies which were most popular with the reviewers are of Lord of the Rings, Spider-Man 3, Harry Potter, Superman and Star Wars: The Last Jedi.[17] HISHE's short animations of Superman and Batman sitting in a café (dubbed Super Cafe), discussing various flaws in movies along with the characters of the movie such as Iron Man, The Avengers and even the Super Mario games, have also been well received.

HISHE Features
On May 12, 2015 HISHE launched a series named 'HISHE Features'.[18] This series aims to put the spotlight on lesser known YouTube animators or movie related channels. It is also used to bridge the gap between HISHE's own videos.
The series has been a success, both in terms of views and features, which include Ricepirate, OnlyLeigh, BrotherhoodWorkshop as well as Hank and Jed. The series has however received some criticism from fans who believe the content is not up to par with HISHE's own and could therefore damage their reputation. HISHE has responded by refuting these claims stating that it is beneficial to all parties involved.
HISHE Kids
HISHE launched an additional channel called HISHE Kids, with the show Fixed Fairy Tales.
Fixed Fairy Tales
Fixed Fairy Tales is an animated series that takes classic fairy tales and gives them a new twist. The stories are narrated by a talking owl named Vincent Featherbottom, who usually tells a summary to the actual story while pointing some flaws and starts to narrate his own version of the story.
Super Cafe / Villain's Pub
The Super Cafe / Villain's Pub is a segment that debuted at the end of How Superman Should Have Ended which featured Superman discussing the alternate events of the 1978 Superman film in a cafe with Batman, which began the trend of the Super Cafe. Though it is thought to be based on Seinfeld, the clips are actually based on the final scene of Daniel Baxter's favorite film, Swingers, with Superman standing in for Trent and Batman standing in for Mike.[19]
In various superhero episodes of How it Should have Ended, altered or added scenes are shown from the superhero film, followed by the superheroes that appear in the movie interacting with Batman and Superman (both voiced by Daniel Baxter) in the Super Cafe; it also always appears at the end of each episode (except the HISHE video for Spider-Man 2, which the Cafe was only shown at the near beginning). The Super Cafe segment is featured in every superhero film the series has covered so far. Superman and Batman also make a brief appearance in a cafe in the How Pulp Fiction Should Have Ended. The segment was also used in the Nostalgia Critic's review of Man of Steel.[20] A companion segment called the "Villain Pub" which is modeled from Cheers and features many popular villains like Loki, the Joker, Voldemort and many more began with How Thor: The Dark World Should Have Ended. In those segments, Emperor Palpatine is the bartender and Bowser is the bouncer (bownser). The Cheers Theme Song was rewritten as a theme.
There are numerous running gags in the Super Cafe segments, the most notable being in which Batman always explains his various accomplishments and abilities or finds some kind of excuse to say his catchphrase "Because I'm Batman!", much to Superman's irritation. In the Suicide Squad HISHE, Batman discovers the Villain Pub and in the Villain Pub episode "Boss Battle", goes to confront the villains congregating there, nearly successfully, only to be tempted by Emperor Palpatine by his weakness – the ladies. It is then that Harley Quinn, who had used her vexing charms to be allowed back into the pub, knocks out Batman from behind. Batman is then taken into the cellar to be fed to the shark Jaws, who is comically depicted as talking in a high-pitched voice, chained up and stripped of his equipment. He barely escapes after being rescued by Dr. Strange, a fact that is reiterated in the Doctor Strange HISHE (which also cryptically contained a spoiler for the Avengers: Infinity War trailer). Later, in the Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 HISHE, things begin to take a turn for the dire when Ayesha, disgusted by heroes congregating in a cafe to meet, decides to punish superheroes whom she blames for her failure by destroying their cafe and unleashes her superweapon Martha (a parody of Adam from the actual end-credits scene of Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 and choosing the name to taunt both Batman and Superman for their mothers having the same name). The arrival of Martha to decimate the cafe is foreshadowed in further videos like the Wonder Woman and Spider-Man: Homecoming HISHE videos. At last, in the Justice League HISHE video, Martha (voiced by James Rallison) arrives and succeeds in his primary objective of destroying the cafe but upon facing the Justice League, joined by Green Lantern, who comically resembles Steve Trevor, gets his neck snapped by Superman, much to the irritation of Batman, who had wanted to take down Martha through his own plan. The cafe is later rebuilt by Black Panther in the Black Panther HISHE video.
In the HISHE video for Deadpool, Deadpool gets himself bounced from both the Super Cafe and the Villain Pub. He gets bounced from the Super Cafe because he likes killing enemies like a villain, and from the Villain Pub because he is not evil enough to be allowed there. Deadpool can't even swear at the Pub, with his attempts being given bleep censors.
