I loved The Sixth Sense, and I enjoyed Unbreakable and Signs. But The Village and Lady in the Water were much less good and The Happening was just stupid. (I don’t know how much he is to blame for The Last Airbender as the original was also stupid - see: Speed Racer).
All I know is audiences are actually laughing when his name appears in the trailer. I don’t know if he can rescue his career at this point.
The original wasn’t anime. It was an American television production, although obviously with strong Japanese influences. I’d be interested in reading your views on it in more depth, as I disagree pretty sharply with what you’ve written here. Of course, you are setting yourself up for a dogpile if you do, so I don’t blame you for not wanting to get into it.
I are whooshed:p I had a feeling it was a parody and then wavered back and forth until I saw the real trailer (which, I think looks kind of good). I started a post thanking the OP for the great laugh and was going to link to the trailer I had watched on IMDB and when I went to the site it was. . . gone:eek:
According to the whooshing rules, any whoosh that requires a poster to click an outside link is not always a whoosh. And any whoosh that requires a poster to watch a video is NEVER a whoosh.
You’ve mistaken what has happened. They are actually reenacting an obscure Monty Python skit, not having a real discussion about M. Night Shyamalan. So… whoosh.
How does that change anything? You can’t start an OP with a link to a video and then call “whoosh” when someone doesn’t watch the video. Most people don’t watch the video, so essentially you’re trying to do a rickroll without the “Never Gonna Give You Up”
