Mark Vader Posted December 10, 2012 Posted December 10, 2012 Will Smith & Jaden Smith star in this sci-fi, directed by M. Night Shyamalan. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m12geJhxPls
Fan in Chicago Posted December 10, 2012 Posted December 10, 2012 Shyamalan used to be one of my favorite directors especially after Unbreakable. My patience wore out long ago - he needs to step up big time to buy my fandom again. As for the trailer - sorry but it doesn't do anything for me.

My patience wore out long ago - he needs to step up big time to buy my fandom again. As for the trailer - sorry but it doesn't do anything for me. Yep. His movies have gotten steadily worse. I wasn't too much against most of them, just basically "eh". But The Happening was awful. Really, had to be bottom 5 of any "major" (big name director and actors) movie I can remember. This one has me interested, but it's going to have to be really good to get me back on his bandwagon. Edited December 11, 2012 by Faustus
DC Tom Posted December 11, 2012 Posted December 11, 2012 Yep. His movies have gotten steadily worse. I wasn't too much against most of them, just basically "eh". But The Happening was awful. Really, had to be bottom 5 of any "major" (big name director and actors) movie I can remember. Oh, come on. The Happening was brilliant. A movie where the main protagonist is trees, and Wahlberg gives the most wooden performance in the movie? You won't find a better, more subtle touch for irony than Shyamalamadingdong... ...wait...that irony...that was intentional, right?
Mark Vader Posted December 11, 2012 Author Posted December 11, 2012 I actually like a good portion of Shyamalan's movies, but the last couple were not that good. "The Last Airbender" being a big disappointment. I'm willing to see what this movie will be like, and having Will Smith is a plus.

Doing a movie starring Will Smith and his son isn't doing much to convince me either.
Doc Posted December 11, 2012 Posted December 11, 2012 Pass. Despite being Indian, and outside of "The Sixth Sense," I've found MNS to be a major disappointment as a writer. All of his stories just lack something.

You can't criticize writing like this: "It's the trees! We've got to stay ahead of the wind"!!!!!! That's Gold Tommy, GOLD!!! Edited December 11, 2012 by TheMadCap
