The Happening
« on: June 17, 2008, 01:27:30 PM »
Don't go see it...worst movie ever and worst M Night Shymyland movie I've seen(that's not saying much)  The cause of the "attacks" will leave you  :huh and pissed off.

If this thing is just a public service announcement about air pollution masquerading as a movie then I'm probably gonna take your advice.

I especially appreciate how the US is the worst, with the French coming in second. Really really insightful commentary.

For those of us that don't watch his movies would you care to elaborate on the cause of the "attacks"?

That's lame, but the first thing that came to mind, (after vowing to not watch this movie of course), was the following "Deep Thought".

“If trees could scream, would we be so cavalier about cutting them down? We might, if they screamed all the time, for no good reason.”

Not if you are a tree hugger.  Then it's better than Citizen Kane.
