It's funny how some stories can start off seeming like jokes, but then snowball into something legitimate. Such is the case with the proposed third installment of the Bill & Ted franchise. For a while now it has been reported that …

We've often said, out of bitterness and spite, that there is nothing Hollywood won't reheat, repackage, and shove into production if there is any money left to be made. This certainly seemed to be the motivating factor behind …

The Happening is a stupid, stupid movie. I don’t think anyone can deny that. In fact, it may just be the stupidest movie I’ve ever seen and I’ve seen Snakes on a Plane and Mega Shark vs. Giant Octopus. It plumbs the depths of dumb in ways that few films have ever done before and for that, the M. Night Shyamalan deserves some credit. A few days before reviews for the film were posted online, M. Night said that The Happening was intended to be a B-Movie and I can’t help but call bullshit. If it… Continue

2008 was probably one of the best years of movies during my lifetime. We witnessed the rise of the superhero, the continuing success of Apatow & the return of such titans as Rourke, Jones and Downey Jr. This lead me to realize that, while making my worst of the year list, that not all of them were that bad to me. Mind you, I haven't seen what I've heard are the shittiest (Disaster Movie, Meet the Spartans, Mummy 3, 10,000 BC, Love Guru, etc.). Thus, the lower half of the list… Continue

Hello Spill addicts,



Today I'm doing something a little different than my French movies highlights to put out there my point of view about the "hidden" message of the universally mocked The Happening...

First let me make one thing very very clear: the movie IS bad, I'm not going to argue about it! However I had a pretty interesting talk with Antithesis, fellow spill member that's being discussed in the forum and migh… Continue

Oh i heard the rumors. About how they wouldn't do a private screening which means the movie sucks. But i had so much faith in M. Night Shyamalan, i wanted to give him a chance..and he let me down. I thought if i saw it before the Spill Crew could review it, it would be so much better, maybe me seeing it first would change the outcome. How wrong i was.



The Happening is a Green Movie, it lets you know that nature isn't going to take this crap. Rattlesnakes bite you when you f**k with… Continue

Dexter Asks: Hey Carlyle, I'm starting to see a lots trailers for the new R rated flick "m Night Shamalan presents a film by m Night Shamalan.... The Happening" I think they would do better to keep his name off the trailer. Any way at first I thought this movie was about the religious notion of the Rapture and that could be a cool movie plot. However I just saw the actual plot on imdb and man it sounds stupid and potentially environmentally preachy. I dont want to spoil it so look on… Continue

I remember hearing M. Night Shyamalan interviewed on the Howard Stern show where he recounted his journey with his last movie, 'Lady In The Water'. Disney was ready to go with it but didn't really like the ending, which made him cry (no joke). After crying about it for a few days and searching his feelings, Shyamalan decided that Disney "didn't believe in the project" and he too it to Warner Bros., who was more than willing to give him complete creative control.



I don't… Continue
