M Night Shyamalan

Post by Clinton Huxley » Fri Jun 07, 2013 1:35 pm

Apparently, he is still rubbish. Latest, After Earth, getting panned.

He always was rubbish. Don't know why anyone thought The Sixth Sense was good, it was shite. I don't know why Hollywood keep giving him money. Is it 'cause he's Token Indian Guy or something?

Sad, he's actually a good director. Pity his writing is substandard mid-nineties graphic novel with a twist bollocks.

I haven't seen all his films. I loved Sixth Sense and Unbreakable. Thought Signs was fucking awful, Lady in the Water as well. Didn't watch any others. I really liked After Earth, though. Didn't think it was anything extraordinary. But it was enjoyable.
People think "queue" is just "q" followed by 4 silent letters.

But those letters are not silent.

Tat, the reviews have been so bad they'll probably quote you on the posters.

:hehe:

I know, dude, this film was absolutely savaged by the critics. I really don't understand why. It's not high art or anything, but neither does it pretend to be. It was fun, nothing more, nothing less. The audience I was with was comprised of a wide range of people, different ages, different ethnicities. Everyone liked it. The kids' attentions were kept, people laughed at the funny bits, and clapped at the end. They really, really liked it, as Sally Field might say.
If you want to bring your kids to it, Hux, I think it's a good choice.

Is he high on crack? Guy Ritchie is fucking brilliant. Well, he married Madonna. But everything else...brilliant. Snatch is one of the greatest films of all time. And even his most commercial endeavor, Sherlock Holmes, how can anybody not love his Sherlock Holmes? Are they gay or something?! :what:

Revolver and Swept Away. That is all.

Seems I'm the only person who enjoyed "Revolver". Though the last 10 minutes were badly put together, it was an interesting idea, mostly well executed.

I liked Revolver just fine. I think I have it on DVD. I'll have to watch it again.

Never heard of Swept Away :think:

Sixth Sense was brilliant. Everything else he's done though has been shite. I wonder if he realises how shite most of his stuff is?
