"After Earth" a new film from M. Night Shyamalan

[Torrasque]

Now how about a Quentin Tarantino Samurai Gangster Western Space Opera? That one I would pay any price for a premiere ticket, even knowing it will be pretentious.

You basically described Firefly there, well serenity to be more accurate.

I thought I might get this.
Truth is I just want Quentin Tarantino to do one SciFi film. I reckon it could be very much interesting.

Aliens: The Prequel. A movie by Quentin Tarantino with Ridley Scott as the co-Director.
I'd be very ok with this so long as Tarantino is allowed to be Tarantino.

 

[tthor]

I refuse to see it regardless of reviews. He destroyed TLA movie which should have been an epic series of movies. I will spite his career for that reason alone.

This. If I ever meet M Night Shamalamadingdong in person, I'll punch the fucker in the face for what he did to my favorite series.. he's dead to me

O'Ren Ishii, half Chinese, half Alienese.

Nope hes a failure branded for life
new director please.

He desperately needs to go back to those twist ending movies he used to make.

Agreed! I say he makes a movie where Dolph Lundgren is a scientist who, through a mishap in his lab develops the ability to smell crime, right? Then he goes out and stops said crime with his sexy smoking hot lab assistant, right? Then when they are done stopping said crime head back to the lab to have sex, right? Then comes the twist...oh there's a twist...

Spoiler

He shows it...all of it...full penetration. Then the movie goes like that: solve crime, full penetration, solve crime, full penetration. It goes on like that for about 2 hours and then just sort of ends.

 

[Justyn Stahll]

I thought The Last Airbender destroyed his career...forever.
I actually like Devil, or maybe it's my fear of elevators that freaked me out

Hopefully they don't go for a "WTF?" kind of twist ending that makes a grand total of zero sense...

or that its a good moive

Good Joke

Captcha: Attila the Hun, WE NEED A MOVIE ABOUT HIM!

 

[pilouuuu]

I'm surprised Will Smith accepted to be part of this. And include his son on it! Bah, I don't care! I'll be busy watching season 2 of Legend of Korra by then. If it turns out to be an amazing film, maybe I'll watch it later on DVD.

 

[Korten12]

Has anyone said the twist: They died in the crash and it's all a dream?

 

[Screamarie]

I don't know whether to find this funny or sad. I have never enjoyed an M. Night Sham's movie before and I doubt I'll start now.

*sighs* M. Night...just...I can't tell you to give up because I know you won't.

Well I'll just stay far, far away from it.

 

[Antonio Torrente]

I know what your thinking, after M. Night destroyed The Last Airbender he should not be allowed to make movies or be involved in making movies because the attachment of his name to any film will make it a sure flop, Devil anyone.

Personally I thought M. Night Shabamalamadingdong shouldn't have been allowed anywhere near the Director's Chair (or even Author's chair, for that matter) for pretty much everything he's done thus far.

The Village was crap.
Signs was crap (Seriously? Aliens whose faces melt off if they get splashed by water invade a planet covered 70% in the stuff? That means you could adequately protect your home by leaving the fucking lawn springlers on and waving a garden hose at the aliens.)
The Happening.

I didn't even see Air Bender (not a big fan of the series to begin with), but I'm sure he crapped all over that as well, and I've little doubt this movie will be crap as well.

As proof that Will Smith =/= greatness, he's going to be in an upcoming sequel to Independence Day.

Not to say that, for its time, the first Independence Day wasn't a good movie. But making a sequel to it?

>.> yeah...

I'm still wondering what his patented mandatory twist ending will be in this movie.

Turns out the Earth depicted in the movie is Earth in the year 2015.

At least it won't be as bad as Mass Effect 3 right? right?

I dunno....M. Night can pull off some really...REALLY groan-inducing crap. And crap so stupid it makes you want to stab him, like the aliens to whom water = acid as strong as xenomorph blood.

Yes, they've mastered intersteller travel, yet they either had no clue that water - something that melts their faces and can be found all over the galaxy - was deadly to their people, or they didn't realize the planet they decided to invade was 70% covered in a substance that is lethal to their species.

Worst alien race ever thought up.

 

[BytByte]

The few Salmonman movies I have seen were not bad, just weird to me. This seems more straightforward, so here's hoping for the best.

You got to understand he still receiving praise from Unbreakable and I think he decided that since he is still what you call an artistic director, he thought no one will notice that the alien race he came up with was crap and look how that turn out to be.

 

[Antonio Torrente]

this picture pretty much sums up what's happening with him.

The guy's problem is that he makes the twist too big. A good twist is subtle yet deep. Like you find out "Holy shit, Bob wasn't even at the party!" and that single fact changes your entire understanding of the story.

M. Night just drops predictable cliches. "He was dead the whole time!" "The exact oposite of the indestructible man turns out to be a villian!" "They're really in present day and are just part of some creepy combine!" Don't think I've seen an M. Night movie that I failed to predict the ending of. Well I guess there's signs...but you'll have to excuse my not considering something so stupid as an alien race that's weak to water.

Edit: And yeah, I'd say that pic does sum things up quite nicely, except my "Fuck you" came with Signs. I know I obsess about those fucking aliens, but it's just so god damn lame!

OT: I'm calling that the crash sent them back in time and the son grows up to be his own father.

+1 for that description of Serenity. That is bang on.

On one hand, I fucking hate M Night Shyamalan, especially in Birdy the Mighty.
On the other hand, I love just about every movie Will Smith has ever been in.
At least this movie has his son being the star rather than him, so that makes me lean more towards "this will be shit like anything Shyamalan does"

Wait. M Night Shyamalan was involved in Birdy the mighty? As in the anime? Am I missing something here?

Not at all actually, but the main antagonist in the first season is named Shyamalan, and bears a striking resemblance to IRL Shyamalan.

I always joke around that he wanted to make the best movie where a planet killing bio-weapon turns on it's creator and THEN kills the planet. The twist being that it turns on it's creator, like that never happens in anything ever....

Ah right haha! I was beginning to think that he was actually involved in something I enjoyed, that was going to be a huge revelation for me as I've never really enjoyed any of his work, Bio-weapons or films.

 

[gideonkain]

Sounds pretty awesome to tell you the truth, the extensively long GIF above was spot on, but all the ingredients are there:

1) Will Smith is a good actor
2) Jaden Smith is a good actor, and both have worked together before as Father & Son to great effect(The Pursuit of Happyness)
3) Post Apocalypse is good and Will Smith has already shown he knows how to portray it with genuineness(I am Legend)
4) M. Night is hungry for a win.

Imagine if he does a trillogy of Mass Effect films and his ending to 3 is fucking brilliant?
I would laugh till I die.

 

[VoidWanderer]

I can guess the ending already...

They discover that earth is in fact another planet, and it's not earth after all.

He's pulled that one already.

He is going for the ... dream card.

And while I understand that some of his recent ... attempts have earned him scorn, I can't blame M Night for Avatar. He was probably told to condense the ENTIRE series into one movie. M Night does have vision, he just needs corrective lenses and to take his medicine like a good boy, or we will send hi to live with his possible life partner Uwe Boll.
