I don't care. Spoil this for me: What is the point of the toast in the movie? Since I know squat about it, all I can assume is that the toast idea was the work of a mastermind of idiocy.

I'd love to see where your(s) argument goes, since I'm a curious soul, but, I'm not seeing your definition of tyrant anywhere on this. And even if your definition was true, it could be said that his is just as true.
That picture of the smug walrus made me laugh quite a bit.
Hey, the Devil's in the details, and funky toast being all funky is just too funky to NOT be the work of the Devil.
This film looks shit just from the trailers. Cheers for the heads up Bob, I was actually thinking it could be a surpriser (in quality), you saved me money I don't really have to spend.

Not that I'm doubting that this movie sucks, but I'm beginning to develop clairvoyant abilities not unlike Yahtzee's over at Zero Punctuation: Moviebob didn't like a movie with religious undertones? GASP WHAT A SHOCK.
For someone who derides movies for being predictable, he's getting awfully easy to predict.

This movie is... so much fun 
! Seriously!
I thought Resident Evil would be the best "worst" movie of the year. You know, the majority of the people die years ago and the buildings still on fire. The world come to and end but they are still doing makeup. But Devil, is too much worst/best!
Hollywood believe that horror movie = people taking bad decisions (in fact, kind of work...). But in devil they believe that bad decisions itself are scary.

I was hoping that this wouldn't suck.
I haven't tried watching a scary movie in years and I figured this one might be a good one to use to ease me back into the genre but based on that review I'll stay out of it.
But still a fantastic review, made me LOL irl several times - Escape To The Movies may well be my new favourite thing on The Escapist...

Wouldn't Peter Porker's little hooves make it tough to stick to stuff? And he really should have hooves even though he doesn't in the picture, I mean, c'mon.
And sadly this is exactly the review I was afraid this movie was going to rate. I am a hopeless optimist, I keep hoping Shyamalan will regain his touch and start once again turning out good material.
I don't have any doubt he is a smart guy and I know he knows how to make movies, I stupidly keep this tiny flicker of possibility that each new movie he is connected to will be really good and he will begin a streak of good movies as long as his bad streak has been.
Oh well.

When i saw this trailer, and the first word of dialogue was from the chick going though the security check and ignoring it saying "what could i possibly be hiding" or something along those lines, i thought "yeah this movies going to be shit".
Just from the first line of dialogue. And i was right!
And its set in stone at the toast thing. Thats going to be some kind of common mock joke soon.

My God the stupidity.
The toast scene is clearly meant to be humorous. Even if you're unsure, the reactions by the damn people around him clearly confirm it.
The movie is pretty good and uses its atmosphere well.
Bob sounds like he has such a gripe with religion, he doesn't films dealing with it objectively.

My question is... Bob, why do you go to see these movies when they're pretty much guaranteed suckage? You're not contractually obliged to review recent movies, are you? Go review some of your DVDs or something!
IT'S NOT WORTH THE PAIN BOB ;-;
