I'm glad it doesn't have a Spoiler Space, because then I would be tempted to find out the specifics when that breadcrumb you mention is all I have. The Wikipedia page (briefly) having Unbreakable listed as part of the "See also" section actually made me pump my fist.

After the bullshit he spouted about The Happening being a b-movie, it's good that he actually knows what one is and is able to make one without it drowning in austerity.

I cannot fucking wait to see this movie. I love Shyamalan's good movies (and The Village is not only one of those, but the best of those, goddamnit) so much that even the shittiness of his misfires can't deter me from wishing for a comeback, which it sounds like this provides.

Oh my god, he hide it in plain fucking sight. Shyamalan, you son of a bitch, I never should have doubted you.

It's going to be so disappointing when it turns out it's just that Spencer Treat Clark points a gun at James McAvoy at one point.

Fuuuuuuuuuuuuuck yeah! Shyamalan, all is forgiven.

I'm going to post that theory here for posterity. It's based on breadcrumbs, so it could very well prove to be monumentally wrong.

By the way, you should totally listen to Blank Check with Griffin and David's episodes on the Star Wars prequels. They just put up best-ofs for each of the miniseries.

I am in the odd position of desperately not wanting to spoil myself on the ending of Split while also desperately wanting to know if my theory on what it is is correct.

In Jackie, she's both!

I was going to make that same comment before worrying that I would be responding (semi-)seriously to what might be a quote from something. But yeah, no, Natalie Portman is never tall, not even in her dreams.

Annapurna Pictures is becoming a distribution studio, will release Kathryn Bigelow's Detroit riots movie on their own this year.

Phoenix was supposed to play McAvoy's part in this initially, and while it sounds like McAvoy does a terrific job, I think Phoenix would've really made a meal out of this part(s).

I am very excited to go into this movie blind about the ending, which is a luxury I was not afforded for literally any other Shyamalan film.

Yeah, the problem with Shyamalan is that he whored himself out to make terrible anonymous movies, whereas the Wachowskis' post-Matrix movies are filled with personality and visual invention, regardless of what you think of their quality (I fuckin' love them all).

Phoenix is one of the few actors weird enough to be able to sell Shyamalan's utterly bizarre sense of humor (Lady in the Water is full of great actors but none of them are up to that task).

That's why I like his cameo in The Village, it's solely in there as a throwaway gag.

"Vamanos!"

The Village may honestly be one of my favorite films of all time (definitely one of my favorite scores of all time, I listen to it a lot). I agree that the ads hyping it as a terrifying thriller instead of a really moving story about love and repression killed it, maybe more than the twist.

I'm so glad to see the positivity about Shyamalan here. I absolutely adore his four Disney thrillers and really like The Visit, and his movies between those sucking hard (I can't quite subject myself to Last Airbender or After Earth) shouldn't make people think that he never had it (or even that he completely lost…
