the village

herman just IM'd me this quote about the village (which opens today):

"It's so witless, in fact, that when we do discover the secret, we want to rewind the film so we don't know the secret anymore. And then keep on rewinding, and rewinding, until we're back at the beginning, and can get up from our seats and walk backward out of the theater and go down the up escalator and watch the money spring from the cash register into our pockets."

apparantly the quote was from ebert. it takes a lot to get so much mass so angry. looks like another BOMB from shyamalan. hopefully more people will start to realize just how overrated he is...
