Because, often on the internet and also among certain parts of the AV Club commentariat, it’s popular to behave as what is less-than-affectionately known as the Wannabe Movie Snob / Asshole. MKS’s movies fall into the range where they’re at least semi-popular but also generally considered mid enough to where it brings…

I have read some fantastically dumb things on the internet over the years, but congratulations, you’re making a strong play for the top podium spot

Please, please, for the love of god, get off the internet. I say this as someone who loathes Shyamalan.

I am continually confused as to why this uneven but ambitious and well-meaning director inspires such frothing rage in people. It’s not even like he’s dominating multiplexes like Marvel, he just comes out with a few mildly successful movies every few years. Why get so mad?

What is wrong with you??? Here’s an idea: DON’T WATCH HIS MOVIES!
Your dumbass does realize that you’re hoping there’s a kid or kids out there suffering trauma because you don’t like that a guy is making money making movies you don’t like, right?
That fact that you don’t realize how sick you are is more disturbing than…

This is some dark shit. Time to back away from the pop culture. This is fucking you up inside.

imagine being enough of a fuckhead to type and publish this comment, seek help

Definitely agree with Tremblay. Shyamalan loves stories that affirm the power of faith and belief, but as a result he ends up creating a world where a dude has to kill himself so planes will stop falling out of the sky. Why would you want to place your faith in that kind of deity/celestial whatever?

La Leche League is really extreme about breastfeeding and really shouldn’t be used as a reputable source. They can be great as a support for women who want to breastfeed and are struggling, but shouldn’t be used as an authority. Also per their own guidelines they’re not supposed to be involved with any kind of legal…

An undercover cop did a drug sting at my high school. He looked 30 and everyone joked that he had to be a cop. He still busted a bunch of kids because teenagers are bad decision makers and will snitch on each other. It did nothing to help the severe heroin problem that was plaguing my rural community but at least some…

The Chicks were cancelled for the better part of two decades for being right about G W Bush.

Can you point to anyone that has actually been canceled?  Go ahead, I’ll wait the century it takes for you to provide a real example.

A minor quibble with real policy implications: Reconstruction, when it was being fully implemented, worked quite well, the problem was much more the backlash, the falling support and the discontinuation of the policies

Reconstruction after the Civil War was an absolute failure. Intolerance, misogyny, bigotry and ignorance have flourished within the red states and is now full-throated fascism.

Let me preface this by saying that I came of age in the early 2000s emo pop punk era and I was hyper involved in the scene. I’ve been going to shows for nearly 20 years, since I was a starry eyed 15 year old with huge tits. I KNOW what predatory behavior is. Matty Healy is not that. He is paying fan service. The…

Thanks @ the comment section for reminding me how much people believe it’s okay to hate fat people <3

I’m waiting on She Said because of depressing news fatigue.

Agreed. I have no doubt it will be a good movie, but I just don’t have it in me to watch that subject right now. Even Tar was a bit hard to watch. 

Oh please. Clarence Thomas would make himself 3/5ths of a person if he could. 

Won’t their uterus’ litter the track when they fly out with all the high g turns and acceleration?
