"I know everyone says that his movies got worse and worse after Signs, but I feel like they sustain the same amount of absurdity throughout. I haven't seen his last few, but I remember seeing the Village and Lady in the Water in theaters and not thinking they were as awful as everyone was saying they were... not to say that his movies, or any movie for that matter, don't deserve the HDTGM treatment.\n \nin other words, I feel like as time passes and his name loses the connotation it currently has, his films will be re-assessed. not saying I fully enjoy his movies, but there's a definite degree of piling on when it comes to M. Night Shyamalan. lots of directors who make surreal movies don't experience any praise for their work in their lifetime and every filmmaker has a formula to their movies if you look hard enough.\n \n \nplus, you have to give him some props for the fact that he continues to make movies when just his name is pretty much a punchline these days.\n"
