[@throatwobblermangrove8510]

@@Devilke No, any problems with the book are the author's fault. The movie's faults belong to the director, because he determines how the story goes. That's like saying Dune was a shitty movie because Frank Herbert wrote a shitty book, which is completely untrue. Any flaws with the book's story could have been fixed by the director, just as the director can add flaws that aren't in the book (good example: Millennium by John Varley). If the book's flaws are so great they cause the movie to be bad, there shouldn't have been a movie to begin with. In any case, Shyamalan has a well-earned reputation now for making movies with terrible plot twists and plot holes you could drive a Mack truck through.

I think all M.Night Shyamalan movies sound completely nuts when you recount the plot. Just sometimes he manages to create a really cool mood or story or so much suspense that you just buy all the nonsense. And then sometimes it just bombs. Lady in the Water was okay until Shyamalan had to drop that ham-fisted dig at film critics in there.

@@TokyoBlue587 Well, to be fair... Signs wmis an awesome movie. I did get allll the way off his back by the time he released Elevator though. It was only marginally better than Nick Cages Wickerman and so much less scary than the similar Dr. Who episode in that vein.

[@squidracerX]

@@rosemali3022 - i mean, i dont know if he did a pitch meeting for Signs - which was a neat movie compared to the rest of his portfolio - but if you define "an awesome movie" as intelligent aliens picking a planet to invade thats 70% water and it rains, when water is their weakness? And the little girl happens to leave water all over. And said aliens can come from across space but cant get in a nailed-shut door. It had good "craft", but his movies are all illogical dog crap that people think have neat twists (but the real twist is that they dont!). -- Like Day of the Triffids had aliens with a weakness to salt water - but they were plant creatures who seemed to invade by accident and everyone on earth was blind while they did it. I was just left very unimpressed by the aliens after Signs.

[@rosemali3022]

@@squidracerX That's totally fair. It was my first ever horror movie as a kid so its special to me. And it has some genuinely good scares. That scene with the alien standing in the roof gets me every time. The acting was good, and the dialogue was well written. It had funny moments like when the film cuts to everyone wearing tin foil hats. And also had some really guy wrenching moments like when the dad yells and then starts to cry. Yeah, I stand by it being a really good film. The aliens were just the premise to deliver the story to us, not the story itself. It's about dealing with tragedy, being present for your family, and faith. Without being preachy about it. Besides, who said horror movies are supposed to make sense?
