I was a fan of M Night's from the Sixth Sense, Unbreakable( my favorite) and Signs. But the Village killed off any interest I had in his movies. He would have to do something really special for me to watch one of his films again.
Lady in the Water - A Prediction About Barack Obama
- Thread starter Agent Richard07
- Start date
Pretty much.
Unbreakable is one of my favourite movies but Shyamalan's stuff is getting more self-indulgent and hard to watch as the years go by. I haven't seen The Happening yet but I hear it's garbage on par with Lady in the Water.
Can we keep the sophomoric political debates to TNZ were they belong! This forum is reserved for sophomoric debates on Sci Fi and Fantasy!
I was about to issue a thread-wide admonishment to the mud-wrestlers, but that sums it up nicely.
As do I. I thought it was cute. Usually I don't like cute things, but this one had the right balance (I love the sequence where the movie critic tries to deconstruct his own death scene). I readily understand why most didn't like it, but I was smiling and laughing (good-naturedly) throughout. I guess it just has to be approached with a certain mindset. The setting is modern, but the story is really a self-reflective fairy tale, and operates on the logic (or lack thereof) of that genre.
On the other hand, I hated Signs. An even more thorough insult to the viewers' intelligence than The Village, in my opinion.

Now please... let's leave the political commentary for their appropriate forum(s).
