    Re: Lady in The Water

    I saw lady in the water and I thought it was a good movie. I think people say it sucks because they wanted a scary movie and this movie wasn't meant to be scary.

    It was a good story. I took my kids and they couldn't stop talking about it.

    IMHO, The Village was very good. Shymalan (sp???) does something most
    other in Hollywood have forgotten how to do - HAVE AN ORIGINAL IDEA
    FOR A MOVIE, don't remake some crap for the 8th time.


    I'll go see it once we're in Tejas, which ain't too far off, sparky.

    This thread is nothing without md's spelling of Shamallamalyn's name.

    That being said, I want to see this movie.

    I finally learned how to say his name properly. It's Shah'-ma-lawn.

    In the TMI department, she revealed in an interview that her folks gave
    her the middle name "Dallas" because that's where she was conceived.

    I'm glad my parents didn't do that. Mine would have been Elmendorf.

    I'm confused. First you say "the Village," then you say "Original Idea."

    Re: Lady in The Water

    I'm curious whether to watch this one as well. I loved Signs, and The Village was good, but I'm not sure I want to go see this one.

    I have a theory that most of the people that don't like his movies are shallow people that feel violated when he throws a curveball they didn't expect.

    Am I the only one who has never seen one of his movies?

    Are you honestly trying to say that there were people SURPRISED by the ending of The Village?

    The only surprise about Signs' ending was that someone would actually make a movie with that stupid of an ending. "Hey, I know, we can't deal with water-it kills us. Let's go attack a planet that's like 70% covered with it! Then we can eat the delicious organisms that are like 90% water! That's the ticket!"

    I liked the Sixth Sense and Unbreakable though.
