I have genuinely no idea how "the women know what men want from them" counts as Fan Disservice. Also, Domino just quite frankly doesn't get naked enough to count for much in a movie with this much nudity.

* AllJustADream / SchrodingersButterfly: ''Very'' subtle hints in the movie provide clues that this is so. For example, both answers in the specific and satisfaction in the abstract seem to elude Bill as the story goes on, with all his prospective sexual encounters fizzling out and nearly everyone who can provide answers disappearing offscreen. Many scenes also end abruptly much as in dreams, and logic seems absent in many regards. After all, the movie ''is'' called Eyes Wide '''[[ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin Shut]]''', and the novella is titled "'''Traum'''novelle" ("Dream Novella").

* GainaxEnding:GainaxEnding: The conversation in the toy store that ends the film at first seems to be leading into a split in the relationship, but then Bill and Alice start talking about the nature of dreams and reality in a way that suddenly throws much more ambiguity on Bill's adventure, made no clearer by Bill's reply that "no dream is ever just a dream". Alice concludes that they're awake and will hopefully stay like that, though the question of fidelity remains up in the air as using the word 'forever' to describe their relationship scares her. And then, to close it out...
