The cartoon is brilliant and he's got that brilliance in him. And yet it is horrible. I did love unbreakable - blew me away. The Village was okay. Oh, and Signs, when it all came together, was great. I'm waiting for the next great movie from him.<br /><br />Here for the Friday blog hops! Am your newest follower.

I liked Signs & Unbreakable just okay at first, but I find that both of these movies get better every time I see them. The Village has some amazing dialogue exchanges, and Lady in the Water is really kind of a sweet story (it was meant to be a bedtime story for Night's children).<br /><br />The only movie I thought was actually bad was The Happening; unfortunately, Shyamalan took a wrong turn there (I haven't seen The Last Airbender, but I don't even necessarily consider that a Shyamalan movie since it's not his original concept). But the ridiculous criticism he gets is totally unwarranted--the man is brilliant, and I can't wait for his new movie coming out this fall, <i>The Devil</i>.Toasterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08886711135599784087noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9176707597013847097.post-25724753707885822662010-07-30T11:11:30.388-04:002010-07-30T11:11:30.388-04:00I agree with you completely.. I think Sixth Sense...I agree with you completely.. I think Sixth Sense was good, but Unbreakable, Signs, and The Village were brilliant (LOVED Joaquin Phoenix)- and I happen to think Lady in the Water was sheer Genius. Yes, The Happening was BAAAAD, but oh well. It happens. Look at Star Wars: Episode 1 (which, for the record, I still loved). I have faith that M. Night Shyamalan will come up with something truly worthy in the near future... :)Claudia Jabieskihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09622050830823656879noreply@blogger.com
