M. Night Shyamalan on Blu-ray - Page 2 - Blu-ray Forum

Shyamalan is a story-telling perfectionist. I am not a fan of 'Unbreakable', but count me in on EVERY OTHER SHYAMALAN TITLE. They are all works of art.

This sounds a LOT like the plot to The Invasion, starring Nicole Kidman and Daniel Craig.

Just add aliens, a clove of garlic, and mix.

The Invasion looks to be a big rip off of Invasion Of The Body Snatchers. You can tell from the previews.. even the mention of "they show no emotion". When I saw this movie preview and it was not entitled : Invasion of the Body Snatchers (with remakes being so popular) I was a bit pissed at the level of rip off this movie appears to be.

Hollywood is sick of remakes.. so now maybe they will start remaking movies without giving credit

Everything can honor everything in one way or another
To talk about ripoffs would remove over 99% of movies we've ever watched
That goes for music as well

the only one of his movies i liked was unbreakeable. that was a great movie! all the other ones were just kind of bleah to me.

ReduxInflux · 08-16-2007, 01:08 PM

Unbreakable and Signs are MUST owns for me. sixth sense i can do with out. Village was a'ight. I appreciate the soundtrack more than the film. Hopefully Disney announces them soon...

Nemo looked damn gorgeous on the ABC HD broadcast... I can't imagine what it'll look like on Blu-ray.

DTMoney84 · 08-16-2007, 03:47 PM

Must agree I have been looking forward to Nemo for quite some time now. I'm also very glad to see The Count of Monte Cristo is finally getting out there.

Sixth Sense, Unbreakable, Signs and The Village are all Buena Vista.

That means the best video, the best audio, for all.

thanks... I decided to re-watch it. I think it was hollywood studio, a.k.a Walt Disney

Blu-ray rule the world

KenThompson · 08-26-2007, 07:02 PM

I've actually never seen Unbreakable. Enjoyed the rest . I wouldn't however buy the Village. Thought it could have been better. Was a let down when discovered it was just a person in the Village instead of some super natural forces that were causing the mayhem.

That would not be a bad idea at all.

Signs (my favorite)
Unbreakable
The Sixth Sense
The Village

Considering that all those 4 titles are from Buena Vista (Disney) and Disney is only using Blu-ray.

Im sold!

The Sixth Sense is one i would defnitely buy...maybe signs but thats about it.
Unbreakable was Unbearable

And The Village was vile. But I'd definitely get Sixth Sense.

I wouldn't say it was vile. It was probably a let down for alot of people. I know most were expecting something that did not happen (like I was). I was expecting a real actual monster. Not a costume, fake thing.

I did enjoy "The Village" the first few times I watched it. It gives you alot to think about and to learn. However, would I buy it to watch over and over again? I don't know. Unlikely. Maybe when it gets to bargain basement prices.

One of his movies that I thought bombed and was stupid as all hell.. Lady in the Water. Now that movie was freaking VILE!
