One of my daughters told me years ago that he needs to make a movie of nothing but all of his trailers. The trailers are much more intense than the movies.

Click To View Spoiler A big part of that movie was the crazy dude thinking he was special. That many things we would consider impossible or unnatural can happen.
It's playing with the idea of super powers being real. The ability of the human mind in aiding someone in doing something fantastical. Well i suppose that and he figures out the one girl is a bit off too having been molested by her uncle or something. So he lets her go because he thinks she's special too. |

When did all movies start sucking? They've all sucked for years. Is it just because I'm getting older or do they really suck? Disney. Marvel. They effing suck. Even my GF thinks they do and she's their demographic. The whole industry needs a hard reset.

The Sixth Sense was brilliant. So was Unbreakable. I didn’t mind Signs. The Village had its moments even if the last third was a letdown. The Visit was a pleasant surprise.
Every other movie he’s directed has ranged from mild dogshit to pure dogshit. |

Sixth Sense was good.
I love Unbreakable and have watched it several times. Thought The Village was okay. Certainly didn’t hate it. I didn’t finish Lady in the Water. Got maybe half to 2/3 of the way through it and decided I didn’t care what happened and turned it off. Never saw any others. |

I'll usually watch his movies at least once.
Almost all were...well OK, but could have been a lot better with a few changes. A few I really enjoyed. The standards are so low with the recycled shit from hollywood, his movies get me to watch them because they are at least different. Knock at the cabin surprised me. |

So the movie will make it clear Josh Hartnet is the axe killer guy all the way through but the twist will be the axe killer made him go to the concert or he’d kill his younger brother Or something and the real axe killer is the daughter.

They always showed who the killer was at the beginning. I don’t think it’s supposed to be a mystery. Its focus is how the killer deals with being trapped. It’s a psychological thriller, not a murder mystery. |
