What parts of this... 'thing'.... are true?


What parts of this are true and factual?

reply

apparently it's all a fake but that's what sci-fi said,maybe there just covering for m.night.

we will probably never know what went on in m.night's childhood.

reply

Night was raised by his parents who are both doctors in a nice upper class neighborhood outside Philadelphia, all that was shown on sci-fi is basically fake, im sure Night had just a fine childhood.

None of it is true, M. Night Sham was just seeking attention because he knows no one is bothered to see the same style of movie he makes witht he same tired and worn out twisted formulas. Also I think M. Night Sham has some sort of Messiah-ego complex and believes himself to be mysterious and different, when in actual fact he's a spoilt filthy twit who needs to get a clue and stp trying to cry for attention especially when he makes false rumours about his life.

reply

Wow he sure seems to have your number. Why so emotional. When you see a movie or a talent you don't like just move on. Did he do you wrong ?!! Did he shoot your dog?

I can just image how upset you must get with people you actually know.

Enjoy your freedom of expression but seriously have you thought about prozac ?

reply

Or maybe . . . he knows how this Art form of film making goes and he can make people believe things that arnt true. he is always saying he likes taking realistic views on crazy things. I think this is brilliant and well done. personally i loved this peice of art work. well crafted and flawless.

well done NIGHT well done

reply

Dude, he shot my dog.

reply

I know he did cause I got it all on tape. But if you play the tape at half speed you can see your dog going for his Glock. So you see M. Night was just acting in self defense. Next time don't let your dog use a gun. Unless of course if he's one of those police dogs. Bummer about that whole opposable thumb problem.

Remember guns don't kill people, dogs kill people.

reply

And I bet if you play it at half speed you can see Andy...he's the one who told Night to shoot my dog. Damn drowned boy!

reply


OMG !!! You're right I do see Andy!!!

I thought Andy killed Kenny!!?!



We Must All Have Waffles Forthwith!

reply

I told you! Andy is *beep* everywhere! I heard he lives in the pipes underneath my pool...

Andy did kill Kenny! My dog's name was Kenny...

reply


Andy did kill Kenny! My dog's name was Kenny...
----------------------------------------------------

This changes everything that I have ever known about all Andys in general.
I mean for the most part the Andys I have known have usually been friendly unassuming type people. They either live in Mayberry or they are some kid's talking toy. I would have never taken an Andy for a talking dog that makes a move on Kenny's glock and then stashes the gun in the pipes under the swimming pool.

We talkin bout that kind of Andy?



We Must All Have Waffles Forthwith!

reply

All Andy's suck. This one in particular because he drowned and now lives in the pipes under the pool and makes other kids drown too. When Night was in my pool Andy tried to drown him again! And then made Night shoot my dog!

reply

Hmmmmm that is a problem. I suggest getting Roto Rooter and Cesar Millan (The Dog Whisperer) Cesar says that dogs need exercise, discipline and affection in that order! Roto Rooter says "And away go troubles down the drain. If Cesar's approach doesn't work surely Roto Rooter will. I mean well... do you remember the song?

Tell them that I sent ya and don't forget to sing the song.

And way go troubles .....

reply

Now you got that song stuck in my head. Plus it didn't kill Henry. It just imprinted the song into his brain, now everytime I go swimming I hear "away go troubles down the drain...not this time bitch!"

i think the part when he talks about his necklace is true. no idea, i didn't look it up or anything. but it's just the only thing that sounds legit. not really interesting to hear, but probably real nonetheless.

i liked how they brought johnny depp into it too. he's always cool to see. was he really up for the role in signs? idk if i can imagine him in it.

hmm, wonder how they really did the whole ouija board thing. was that whole scene done without any cuts?

reply

All the scenes they shot in and around Chadds Ford PA (location of the "Village") are real. It was fun seeing our local town on SciFi. Have a look at my website below and you will see some landscape that shows in this mocumantary.

the movie jsut pissed me off!

reply

I reckon most of it is true, but M.Night wanted to cover it all up, cause sure,Sci-Fi said that, but why did M.night let the movie go to DVD?


EVERYONE SHOULD BE KILLED!!!

reply

You're all idiots, the truth is M. Night is secretly sending out subliminal messages in order to make Ameericans dumber than they already are to the extent that when the great Nazi-Reptilian invasion occurs they'll be too much in a state of bemusement not to do anything about it. Oh that, and Prince Harry is actually the antichrist!

reply

Dude, I saw this thing at midnight and I was so fkn' scared that I searched some info on the net about it.Finally it appears to be a hoax and I am relieved of it. Although I hope Lady Diana won't come holding her smashed face/head in her hands, to visit you while you're sleeping...lol

No No No! M Night Shyamalan is a fool! How cheeky can the man be to present his debut a an M Night Shymalan film - Like we should know who he is! How can you be frightened by a man that looks like he works in a book shop? His films are atrociously contrived works that hinge on maybe ten seconds of film, the rest is filler. How cheeted I felt that I sat though the sixth sense for THAT twist. When writing the man must start with the twist and then work out how to fill 90mins, the result is arse gravey. His films could be cut to fifteen with very little difficulty and still make sense and still have the desired effect. Besides that ALL of his films work in exactly the same way. You want a good director look to Kubric - his genius was in the fact that he could present many genre of film in various, exciting, and often seminal prose. Unlike Shyamalan who reruns the same film in various and quite often ridiculous formats. He is a sham hoaky director - who should not be held in any regard other than a slightly off beat blockbuster churner.
By the way he killed my dog also. Frisky could not use a gun but he was trained in the mystical ways of the ninja. Even his woo-dan mind control powers where no match from the bordom of village. I weep over his ramshakle grave every night the nasel whine of laughter ringing in my ears... All I can do is collapse to my knees, shake my fists at the sky and and curse HIS name. 'One day Shyamalan... One day'.



'I see... a bad film, nooooooooo...'

reply

i see that you dont know anything about movies, plot, or developing a script at all...

you have a better idea for a movie? write it and get it made, otherwise sit back and just relise how much work went in to making that film. he is an amazing film maker and you only need half a brain to see it.

reply

Well I'm open to debate, but please do that. Tell me the points that you disagree with! Its no good to tell me that I dont know anything about movies plot or developing a script. I'm happy to discuss charator development and natative form if you tell me what it is you think I dont know about.

P.S. I'm sorry about your unfortunate condition of having half a brain, life must be terrably frustrating. I believe that this condition may be the reason that you like his films.

reply

"P.S. I'm sorry about your unfortunate condition of having half a brain, life must be terrably frustrating. I believe that this condition may be the reason that you like his films."

Hello, talk about offending to those with only half a brain! Really!

reply

I appologise profusly for any offence caused to those with half a brain. I have come to realise that even those with half a brain could not like shyamalans films. Again I apologise sincerly. I have discovered from Dr Carbuncle's extensive research paper, "the effect of Shyamalan over the spectrum of the intellgentista", that only people with less than seven brain cells (sceptcelliods)could ever enjoy his films.
