01.22.12 | List is absolutely correct, first three are his best. |

01.22.12 | Cop Dog is his best by far |

01.22.12 | The Village was so weak, I remember leaving the theatre pissed after it |

01.22.12 | the first half of sigsn was good, then it got really bad really quick |
Trebor.
01.22.12 | The Ass Gaybender |
Divine
01.22.12 | I think Signs and The Village are borderline, when it comes to a negative/positive scale. The rest are either pretentious, terrible, or both. |

01.22.12 | Signs is fine up until the last ten or so minutes |
Inveigh
01.22.12 | I actually like Unbreakable more than Sixth Sense, but they're both pretty ok. basically one-trick ponies though. the rest range from average to terrible imo (well, haven't seen 5 or 7). |
Deviant.
01.22.12 | The problem with Unbreakable is that the "twist ending" is fucking terrible |
Hawks
01.22.12 | Signs and The Sixth Sense are pretty awesome. I thought Unbreakable and The Village were kinda bad though. |
Inveigh
01.22.12 | well I mean pretty much all of the twist endings in his movies are terrible |
Divine
01.22.12 | "well I mean pretty much all of the twist endings in his movies are terrible"
Except The Sixth Sense, that ending was genius |

01.22.12 | umm mnight shamalydingdong has only 2 passable movies so this was kind POINTLESS |

foxblood
01.22.12 | ranked correctly, 1 and 2 are great. signs is average, and the happening is like a 2/10 |

01.22.12 | im just sayin bro could ranked something cooler like will ferrell movies and put them all in 10th place
fuck thats a good ass idea actually |

What? do you mean they're supposed to be mexicans or something? they're clearly aliens |

01.22.12 | the twist is the aliens are jews |

01.22.12 | So I says to him
"Muh, you got two problems. One of them is that 7-10 split you left yourself there. The other is not being able to write a movie without a damned twist ending!" |

01.22.12 | list is very accurate, cool job man. although Signs is arguable |

01.22.12 | I've never understood the love with The Sixth Sense or Unbreakable. |
Parallels
01.22.12 | "What? do you mean they're supposed to be mexicans or something? they're clearly aliens"
No the movie is about demons. Shamalan used the idea of Aliens to create a sort of movie theme double entrendre. |
Trebor.
01.22.12 | That's fucking stupid
|
Parallels
01.22.12 | Why else did you think he focused on the flashbacks so much? The aliens were there for the effect, but it was about how people deal with their personal demons. or you can tell yourself that they are mexicans. |
Trebor.
01.22.12 | The aliens represent mexicans and the water represents learning english |

They're not aliens, they're demons. Holy water kills them. Shyamalamadingdong said it himself. Seriously, if you know anything about science you know they cannot be aliens. |
Trebor.
01.22.12 | well obviously they are scientifically inaccurate
I just thought Shamylan was a dumbass who doesn't know shit about aliens
|
paxman
01.22.12 | He could very well be a dumbass who doesn't know shit about aliens, but I thought the whole alien/demon parallel was clever. |

theacademy
01.22.12 | night is a pretty fantastic (or at least decent) director. he just can't write for shit. |
FromDaHood
01.22.12 | He would actually be decent if he didn't confine himself to setting up a "shocking" twist at the end of all his movies and forcing himself to write to accommodate said twist. |
MrHotMoms
01.22.12 | no a lot of his movies are pretty fucking terribly developed throughout... also there's the dialogue... The Village and The Happening especially. (havent seen lady in the water or last airbender b/c i didn't think there would be enough violence to be worth my time). |
Trebor.
01.22.12 | That Robot Chicken sketch rules |
FromDaHood
01.22.12 | That's because he's trying to find a way to twist it at the end. Duh. |
Josh D.
01.22.12 | I like watching The Happening because I like watching the way the people die.
Is that weird? Did I make it weird? |

Because aliens are a scientific certainty. And of course it must be holy water, it came from the tap of a priest's house |

01.24.12 | "Because aliens are a scientific certainty. And of course it must be holy water, it came from the tap of a priest's house"
Science in its present state posits that water is a prerequisite for the development of any sort of life, terrestrial or extra. Given that the creatures in SIGNS breathe oxygen (for they're on Earth, after all), it would therefore be wise to believe that their existence was founded on the same scientific guidelines as ours. It doesn't make any sense then, if they are indeed extraterrestrials, that they are fatally allergic to water. It makes even less sense in this case that an alien race with a deadly aversion to water would invade a planet that is eighty per cent water and a planet from whose skies water drops every day.
I think it's really clever that at face-value, SIGNS is an alien-invasion story while digging deeper it is an exorcism story.
In any case, this entire discourse is useless, because M. Night Shyamalan explained in some interview or other that the "aliens" are physical manifestations of the characters' personal demons and that the water, which is holy, is what kills them. |
