Vin Diesel is just terrible. Plus he's no match for The Rock - he provides stupid, muscle-bound action much more effectively.
I paid like $15 on pay per view at a hotel

Shyamalan is, in my opinion, possibly one of the worst and most pretentious directors in film history. I would rather have needles stuck through my toes than watch another one of his films.

The Sixth Sense drove me mad. But I loved Toni Collette.
Unbreakable? Was unwatchable.
Signs? Oh my word. I don't even know where to begin.
The Village? Even Sigourney couldn't save it. That says something.

And his stunt with that absurd documentary and the SciFi Channel just made me dislike him even more.

I liked The Sixth Sense and Unbreakable (I thought is was Broken ) But, after that, I thought his stuff with a few exceptions in fleeting moments on screen was unoriginal and trite.

Eek. Bless you, you have a strong stomach. I bought Unbreakable not knowing that it was one of his films and when I watched it, my jaw was on the floor and I was in utter disbelief at how awful it was. I then took it to a used music store that bought used DVDs and they wouldn't take it because they had ten other copies from people who despised it just like I had.

I forgot about that stunt, that was regoddamdiculous. I saw The Village and I didn't hate it. It loses a lot of momentum when you find out what the twist is.

Talking Yes...

Bush & co should win for their supporting roles in Michael "Aint seen my feet in years thanks to the Krispy Kreme diet" Moore's doctumentary...

I love this awards show...A better and more respected award show in my eyes than any of that Academy Awards BS.

Hmmm an idea has entered my sadistic mind, I should start my own version of the Razzies...But for MUSIC!!!! Hehehehehehehe!!! I think it the D.U.C.T. (Dried Up Cow Turd!!!) award for musical stupidness/blandness & absolutely pure suckiness/lack of talent.

It was random how this sweet man turned out to be so wretched. There was a lot about the story that didn't hold up but I did find the movie entertaining. I liked the actress who played the blind girl.

I like his films on the whole. Just enjoyable nonsense really, nothing wrong with that.
Yeah, you don't have to just "suspend" disbelief, you've gotta ball it up and chuck it out the window!

I didn't mind it either BUT I'm relatively unpickey when it comes to my movie entertainment....

Now -what stunt did he pull on the Sci-Fi channel? I've not heard of this

I liked her, too. She's Ron Howard's daughter.

And she took over for Nicole Kidman in the Dogville trilogy, so I'm excited to see her in it.

Oh wow, I didn't realize who she was. She's got an understated beauty, very appealing, and she's a good actress too!

He helped make a documentary/hoax about himself called "The Buried Secret of M. Night Shyamalan." It was supposed to reveal a big secret about him and in it, he refused to cooperate and called his lawyers to try and get them to stop making the documentary and blah blah blah. Turned out to be a big hoax on the part of him and the SciFi Channel to drum up interest for that ****ty Village movie.
