Does Shyamalan care about Airbender's bad reviews?

I actually quite liked Lady in the Water...Maybe I'll watch it again someday I wonder what I was thinkin.
But yah. Airbender. Wow was that shit. I've seen better on straight to DVD. I think my favorite bit was the romance between that little ice princess and some guy which goes from first meeting, to love at first to her giving her life in about 6 seconds flat. Yes the acting was terrible, but so was everything else. Literally everything...oh the effects were ok!
The Happening was worse tho. Nothing happened. Well some trees shook in the wind and people went suicidal. The End.

because audiences have too much ADD to enjoy a story where danger literally surrounds you, but doesn't come in the form of a CGI-alien or explosion... how do you fight plant life? or bacteria? or viruses?
in a movie that is hard... the brain dead way (pun) is to use zombies... then we can alleviate some of that ADD with boo scare factor
literally people have to stop going to his films expecting summer blockbusters... and have to start looking at the characterization more... he's not aiming for highbrow, and too many lowbrow seem to go to his movies and get pissed... he wants you to invest a bit into the movie, not just be taken for a pants wetting ride
the same people (i've found anyhoos) who detest his movies, find Hitchcock to be boring as well... I'm not saying MNS and HC are on the same level... but there's definitely some stylistic overlap...
you get out what you put in... if you have nothing to put in, there's plenty of summer blockbusters to for you... you can drool over Megan Fox (or her replacement) and then drool over how cool the transformers look and come out feeling like you spent your money well... but hardly as though you've been challenged as a viewer... beyond eye strain I suppose


from someone who finds hitchcocks approach fascinating, shyalaman is a fucking dumbass

It looks cool, but since it's on NBC, why bother. It will be cancelled after 8 episodes.

Correct. If it was on AMC or FX, it might have a shot but this is far too highbrow for network TV. There's only so much the yokels can take.

People CAN do a lot on this site. However, it was not my intent to steal his video spotlight, and horde his votes, which I feel you are implying. Additionally, as far as I can tell I can NOT fix his dead link, as it does not appear in the deadpool, nor does it have a 'fix this video embed' link.

Sorry, but this is a dupeof=http://videosift.com/video/Cat-coughs-and-farts-at-the-same-time
The original vid is dead, but you can see it was the same (I remember it myself) as it has a run time of 13 sec. You can fix the old vid, but you can't just repost it because it is dead.
