None of them have a plausible ending as far as I know, not if you count that piss poor excuse of a finale as a closure.
Which gave the best closure?

Overall I'd say the movie. Actually played with the show's ideas in a fun way, not an antithesis to the show but a hey some problems are bigger than just a song. It felt like that little twist and kick in the bum Steven needed. Themes need to be challenged and the movie at the very least had a little more to say than be super nice and everyone will agree with you.
CYM was overly simple, but then again so was the show. Steven was just able to wiggle his eyelashes and get what he wanted. It stuck the the show's themes at least, it was an appropriate end that could have been so much more. At least WD was so little of a character that you can argue that sure turns out she did just need a little poke. Future's issue was it appeared to do more, it seemed like it was hitting against something more real. The writing just isn't that good. They can only explain PTSD in a blatant PSA that kids will laugh at in time. All of this, for it to get hugged out. Steven had much deeper issues blatantly shown yet they were solved in an even more childish way. That didn't even really address his main hang ups, throwaway lines about oh he is getting online therapy is just fucking nothing/
Movie > Show > Future

None of the above, in a good way?
The best thing about how SU evolved was it became a setting rather than one single story.
So to that end, I’d say the movie is the worst because its the one with the most finality to its end. The main show wrapped up too abruptly, so I’ll say Future edges out the win. It left the most plot threads open for the future no pun intended, rather than just dangling unanswered.
Pic very much related. Its in a perfect place for a tabletop RPG or a vidya.

CYM would have been the perfect closure if it had confirmed the Steven & Connie relationship. So I'd go with Future.
The movie was just pure waste of time and energy.

The movie should've been the ending, but it should've gone for a different plot involving Steven and the Diamonds. I really didn't like Spinel or Future
Christian Gonzalez
Future, I don't give a shit about Spinel so the movie didn't give any closure to me

I liked the OG ending and while her potential was used too great WD is one of my favorite antagonist in animation and Change your Mind is just such a sweet song to end the series on

Ronaldo had a lot of predictions that didn’t come true. Plus most are addressed in the same episode.
>Steven can get pregnant
Unless him and Connie form Stevonnie in the future, or somehow expels Pink/Rose’s personality by budding off his Gem or something.
>Lion can turn invisible
Kind of, if you count it as predicting the teleporting.
>Sneople
He also mentions bodiless creatures that can possess people in the same episode. People gave charitably suggested this means he predicted Corruption.
>Watermelon Stevens are aliens
>Greg is also an alien, as depicted by Steven’s drawing of “Guitar Dad”
Can be counted kind of as Steg.
>Stole a piece of Peridot’s ship to study
We never did find out what he did with it.
>The government covers up evidence of the Gems
Proven with Dewey’s freakout over it.
>Predicts the Diamonds and Peridot, as well as Injectors
>There is a mutant donut which he bought immediately
We never heard more about that one.
>Stevonnie could beat Kevin in the race
They could have if they wanted to.
>Documents Lapis and Peridot using powers
People assumed this would tie-in later but it didn’t.
>Finds out how the Gems live by trying to join them
>He knows about the Moon Base even before he sees it, and discovers Lapis is on the moon with the barn
>Learns about Gem warfare talking to Bismuth at the wedding
>Documents Pink’s ship, then White, Yellow, and Blue’s ships
He compiled a fuckload of information, which Steven kind of undercut when he and the Diamonds sent out a universe-wide message about the history of the Gems and Earth, which Earth also received. He went from being aware of all the Gem events to being on the same page as the rest of the human race.
That said, he probably got footage of all of Stevenzilla including him turning back.
