It’s because you know you’re gonna get something crazy, for better or for worse. And you can’t ever forget that he did The Sixth Sense, so there’s always hope that he will make another masterpiece.

[@xg3990]

@Prince Smith all good. I don't think he's knocking it. It's just...the sixth sense is a movie for cinema history. The rest of the movies are just movies that we enjoy.

[@jerotoro2021]

The chain of thoughts always goes: "Oooh, a new M. Night Shyamalan movie, it looks good!" [after seeing] "Man that was a good movie, very enjoyable, it made me think." Society in general: "Man what an awful movie by M Night, so lame." [cognitive dissonance followed by fear of being mocked for liking it] "Uh, yeah, so awful! I thought that all along!"

[@xg3990]

@Prince Smith again, I'm not saying they aren't. I loved both of them. I'm just saying that objectively, sixth sense was really something else when it came out. And before we knew who M.Knight really was all about. There's a reason why sixth sense is on all cinema lists as one of the greatest movies.

Just saw “Old” in the theater. It was actually really good! And he has a significant cameo in it!

It was laughably bad. I’m 100% sincere in saying Old is the funniest movie I’ve seen this year. He’s definitely trolling with that movie. No one is THAT out of touch.

[@ToharaAmah]

I enjoyed it. I wouldn't call it a favorite movie for sure, but I'd watch it again.

[@patrick7228]

Really enjoyed this. I wish he would at some point do an interview just discussing his movies. His ideas, the meaning behind certain things that happened, why he made certain choices, etc.

[@ericks1178]

He doesn't seem like 50 years old

[@samos4924]

What do you think 50-year-olds are like? Walking around with canes telling people to get off their lawn?

I loved what he said about the guy saying he reminds him of Spielberg. Sometimes it takes comments like that to give you the confidence to go on to do great things that you don’t believe you can or should do at the time, and people don’t even know the effect that have on you when they say those things.

[@KenShackler]

I haven't seen most of his movies, but the ones I've seen I've liked. Writing unique and interesting plot twists is one of the most challenging things for a writer, so I really respect him cause he's written more than a couple great plot twists.

I always liked M. Night. He always seemed like a real nice and down to Earth fellow. He did good with this here. I know his career has been uneven, but to me he had done well.

[@aquamelon0087]

Despite the strangeness of his movies, he's a pretty cool guy

[@FalardeMusicaeLegal]

This was one of the guys who taught me about cinema and I love him.

[@saipavann9913]

He deserves an Oscar for unbreakable's screenplay

[@lacouerfairy]

He seems so nice and normal.

[@thefosplus]

As a 5'10", 5'11" guy, I feel very seen M Night.

I'm a 5'10 teenager kid so Sometimes people said I'm 5'11.5 and 6'0"

I LOVE that he was careful about spoilers for movies that have been out for over a decade. What a cool guy.
