Seriously?

Well I don't remember any threads about it, seems like the kind of project that would get a warm welcome from the initial details to me, top director, top writer, seems an attractive 'one sheet'.

[jetjevons]

I'm going out of my mind... of M. Night Shymalan.

Gary's

Spoiler

paycheck

is bigger than yours, fact.

 

[Lunchbox]

One word for you: water.

its a metaphor, the movie is a thinking mans movie, a work of art

 

[Zilch]

Seems like a match made in terrible movie heaven. They deserve each other.

Jaden's rise to supreme power will not be deterred by the shitty writing of Gary and direction of M.Knight. It has been foretold.

 

[HiResDes]

Im not debating whether KK is good or bad, but you havent seen many movies if its in your top 10 worst. It holds about a 70% on RT too.

I've seen more movies than you...I'm obsessed. I watch a new film everyday. There are films that are worse in terms of aesthetics, cinematography, and dialogue however those that are worse are more entertaining. Karate Kid occupies a sort of neither-land in that it is neither good nor hilariously bad. I think it's a failure both in terms of entertainment and artistry.

Whitta's rise to supreme power will not be deterred by the shitty acting of Jaden Smith and direction of M.Knight. It has been foretold.

[HolyCheck]

Two gaf members, together, taking on the world!

good luck m nights + whitta

 

[diunxx]

It's impossible for this movie NOT to suck :lol

 

[Lebron]

Nope. Eli had shit writing, and I'm more than sure this will too. I mean, M.Knight is on board so it has to be pretty shit. Lucky for both of them, Jaden will bring in some money to keep them in the business for now. The Smith domination can not be stopped.

Now you're just trolling me

Will you please admit that at this stage in his career Jaden is not a good actor? :lol

 

[Amir0x]

i'm so sorry Gary Whitta

 

[Lonely1]

Soundtrack by justin bieber

Fixed.

 

[SpeedingUptoStop]

Sorry Gary, but getting in bed with M. Night has me losing all interest in this movie.


Really surprised anybody here finds the Jaden thing even remotely more troubling in anyway.

 

[Speevy]

Even your best script can't save whatever travesty this man will inflict upon us next.

 

[Dabanton]

The Karate Kid remake was good.

 

[brianjones]

One word for you: water.


I love this argument. Yeah that movie clearly went over my fucking head.

like he said.. you didn't get it

the water is irrelevant

 

[Xeke]

You drop the bomb on me.

That opinion is certainly not worthy of a "what the fuck are you talking about". You must at least recognize that you share that stance with almost no one.

 

[Imm0rt4l]

Damn.....

Well maybe Garry can convince someone not to preface any trailers with "from the mind of m. night shyamalan".

 

[ZoddGutts]

Eli was an alright film, but that's all it was an alright film.

 

[Chichikov]

I hate Shyamalan as much as the next guy, probably more.
But his problem was always writing, he's a pretty decent director, or at least he was, Lady in The Water and The Happening are terrible across the board.

That being said, I think his name is box office poison at this point.

 

[Speevy]

I just thought of an idea.

Since he loves to be in his own movies, write him into so many scenes that he can't possibly direct, then remove those scenes in editing.

?

 

[Lunchbox]

Now you're just trolling me

go watch your michael bay transformers 2. youre just a hater.

watch it again without hate goggles

 

[HiResDes]

Sorry Gary, but getting in bed with M. Night has me losing all interest in this movie.

This is pretty much M. Night's specialty and he has some decent movies under his cap: Unbreakable, Sixth Sense, The Village (Scarred by lackluster writing), and Signs was okay.

are you that guy who made the embarrassing final fantasy post

 

[mattiewheels]

"From the MIND of M Night Shamylan"?

Jesus fucking christ.

(I still love you, Gary!)

 

[HiResDes]

If you liked this Karate Kid remake you must have muted the television during all of Jaden's parts.

are you that guy who made the embarrassing final fantasy post

No...I did make an embarrassing post about my sex life though.

 

[DevelopmentArrested]

go watch your michael bay transformers 2. youre just a hater.

do i look like duckroll to you? i didnt hate m night when i watched it and still hated it but okay.

You sound like an unbelievable snob.

And this is GAF, we're all snobs.

 

[smokeymicpot]

That is a twist.

 

[StuBurns]

This thread has made me want to watch Signs.

 

[Speevy]

I'll bet John Travolta is secretly doing a fist-pump at the prospect of this replacing Battlefield Earth on the list of worst sci-fi movies.

 

[Speevy]

This is pretty much M. Night's specialty.

Being worse with each new outing is M. Night's specialty.

 

[UrokeJoe]

I feel sick.

 

[Dreams-Visions]

GAF! be easy.

Garry has bills to pay. This will enable him to pay them and continue buying Macs. Chill.

 

[ghst]

seems like a decent fit.

 

[Expendable.]

:lol

This is a terrible post. In addition, my insecurities dictate that I must use hyperbole in justifying my own opinion, so I classify this the 3rd worst post that has ever been on the internet. Ever.

 

[Lebron]

Will you please admit that at this stage in his career Jaden is not a good actor? :lol

This stage? You mean after three movies, two being on his own? Nah, he's fine.

 

[Speevy]

Nobody's begrudging the guy his job, but any chance to pick on one of the worst directors making major motion pictures will be taken.

 

[Rindain]

A far-future sci-fi by M. Night written by GW? Will watch...I'm a sucker for far future speculative sci-fi.

And is Gary really banned? For science's sake unban him now so he can tell us stuff.

None of what you said makes sense, there are 1000's of movies that are worse in every way and are also not entertaining.Its your opinion I suppose, but its not a very good one.

On a side note why is everyone saying Gary is banned?

 

[DevelopmentArrested]

seems like a decent fit.

 

[Speevy]

And is Gary really banned? For science's sake unban him now so he can tell us stuff.

I didn't know that. Good grief, he has 4 names or something. He needs to lose them all before getting banned.

It was a joke. Wow, didn't know there was a Jaden Smith/Karate Kid defense force. What's next a Noah Ringer/Last Airbender defense force.

 

[EraldoCoil]

GARY ISN'T BANNED!!!

i know for a while he was, but he's not anymore.....he even made a thread yesterday.
