Re: Lady in the Water?

I saw the 10 minute preview on tnt a few weeks back, looks pretty weird. I'll give this one a look when it comes out. Hopefully its better than the village.

Re: Lady in the Water?

I think it looks good.

July 21st...

I will probably wait for reviews though.

Re: Lady in the Water?

I'd like to see it, but I'll wait for the reviews too.

Re: Lady in the Water?

Like most of M. Night's movies, it'll be a "I loved it" or "I hated it" flick.

M. Night has been on record as saying though that this one doesn't have a twist ending...weird.

Re: Lady in the Water?

Bump.

I want to see this movie, but I doubt I'll go this weekend.

Ouch. 35 over at metacritic and 21% over at rotten tomatoes.

Re: Lady in the Water?

Looks stupid, but I'm sure I'll wind up seeing it on video at some point.

Re: Lady in the Water?

I think the trailer looks good, but of course I thought that about The Village as well. I'll wait for DVD since his last two movies really underwhelmed me, unless my wife wants to see it in the theaters.

Re: Lady in the Water?

You have to see M. Night's movies in the theater... if you are the type who says "its worth a rental"... then don't rent it... just watch it in the theaters and never watch it again to save money.

His movies in theaters are always 10x more suspensful.

As for me... I will def see it... I don't understand why most don't like The Village... but that would categorize the same people that don't really like shows like The Twilight Zone either... I am a fan of both TZ and all of M. Night's movies (especially Signs)...

I must see this one.

I liked the Village too. I didnt think it was as good as some of the others, but still good.

I hated the Village. Unbreakable, IMHO, is his best movie, and one of my favorites though. Just the ideal superhero movie for me.

As for Lady In the Water, I plan on checking it out as soon as I can, but I'm not expecting much. Until the Village, I loved all of Shyamalan's movies, from Sixth Sense to Signs, but I thought the plot in The Village sucked. There were quite a few good scenes in that movie though, and Shyamalan does a great job directing the movie and exuding atmosphere. But the story that he wanted to tell was lame there, IMHO. Unfortunately, might be the same with Lady in the Water.

I hope he breaks out of this slump, and starts becoming more selective of the types of stories he tells.

By the way, Signs didn't have a "twist" ending either.

Re: Lady in the Water?

My rents saw it last night and explained the whole situation about the girl, etc to me.

Pretty sure I won't be seeing this, in the theatres or rental.

I know what happens from spoilers and what not. I predicted it from seeing the very first trailer.

Re: Lady in the Water?

I'm sure at some point during the movie you'll say to yourself...

THAT was the big twist!?
