    this movie is going to be like if it was made by a bad m night sham

    which means it will be signs but worse

    completely dumb twist ending with no bruce willis

    e: look lets go into an analysis -

    The Killing Room (2009) - cool you just made saw except without a real antagonist and it was the best film at sundance 2009 because it was "like Reservoir Dogs without the hipness." To put that another way:

    "You know those thrillers about a group of strangers who get locked in a room together and have to figure out how to escape? "The Killing Room" is one of those, except that neither the characters nor the things that happen to them are interesting."

    Darkness Falls (2003) - The characters confront the mother fucking tooth fairy. Is there anything else I really need to say about this?

    Genesis and Catastrophe (2000) - ugggh fuck you Roald Dahl jesus this movie is so bad. It's 3 minutes of a woman hemorraging during child birth, 2 minutes of her complaining about how mean her husband is, and then 3 minutes for a twist ending that doesn't really mean anything.

    The Texas Chainsaw Massacre: The Beginning (2006) - Possibly the worst reboot of a franchise in movie history.

    Rings (2005) - is okay apparently.

    I would like to pause for a moment, to talk about my penis.
    My penis is like a toddler. A toddler—who is a perfectly normal size for his age—on a long road trip to what he thinks is Disney World. My penis is excited because he hasn’t been to Disney World in a long, long time, but remembers a time when he used to go every day. So now the penis toddler is constantly fidgeting, whining “Are we there yet? Are we there yet? How about now? Now? How about... now?”
    And Disney World is nowhere in sight.

    Signs has plenty of flaws, but that doesn't make it bad necessarily.

    Some of those flaws = things that just didn't appeal to me.

    signs is pretty bad

    it's didactic in its message and heavy handed in its story telling

    not as bad as subsequent m night movies, but still bad

    I liked Signs, in spite of its problems, but it's the last tolerable one for me.


    EDIT: But wait, that's not true actually


    I think the Happening is fucking hilarious

    tour de force by Mark Wahlberg


    when his good-hearted protagonist denies an accusation by an obviously paranoid senile old lady that he's out to murder her, he does it so awesomely unconvincingly that even I, with the benefit of of the viewer's perspective, have my faith shaken


    but now I've talked it up too much, it's a little moment, it just happens to be the summit of the movie for me.

    I feel okay about signs.

    I don't think you can really fault the whole water kills aliens thing. I mean, what are your reasonable options for resolving that issue when the focus of the story is on a family with no particular abilities that make them well suited to fighting aliens? I guess they could have died horribly, but that doesn't really resolve their relationship issues in a satisfying way.

    signs was a step away from being a kirk cameron movie

    the water kills aliens thing wasn't only stupid because aliens invaded a planet that is 70% deadly and frequently has death rain from the air (although that was really stupid), but because the dramatic resolution was basically "have faith in god" and that is boring
