Is that the one in the commercial where they ask them..why are you doing this..and they reply..because you were home.. :shock:

Speaking of home invasion movies..Bruce Willis' Hostage was on the tv today..

Haven't seen the movie yet, but it has been a long time since a trailer creeped me out at all. And this one looks awesome!

This is going to be my last rush to the theater round with M. Night. I loved Sixth Sense, Unbreakable and Signs, but his last two efforts really fell short. Lady in the Water was unwatchable. I hope he pulls it together on this one.

nope, think more 70's cheap set and surprise element, really sort of dull, but there's nothing much else to see right now...

Lady in the Water was a complete waste. The Village was good because of the ending, but otherwise, pretty freakin' slow. So far, I've only liked 6th Sense and Village. Thought Signs was really lame, plus I hate Mel.

I can't wait for "The Happening" - very sci fi looking.

Unfortunately I won't post more about it because I may have run across a spoiler. :? I didn't realize it was until I told my son and he said I may have just blown the whole movie.

It would be like someone telling you "Bruce Willis is really dead" as you walk in to see Sixth Sense (one of my all time favorite movies).

there was actually a GASP in the audience when i saw that.. i was sorta onto it .. but didnt have it all figured out.. i had not heard anything about 6th sense and it was the first week it was out..

of course i also took my mom to see SuperBad the first week it was out.. i didnt know... i just heard it was a good funny flick .. i even asked the ticket and popcorn girl if it was a good one and they both ,, of course stated.. "its my favorite movie of all time..".. i was thinking caddyshack .. UGH!!

My feelings exactly... You know, he's just wearing his M. Night formula thin, and so his movies are becoming predictable... But "Lady In The Water" was one of the worst, most self-indulgent films I've ever seen...

Anyway, I'm actually looking forward to seeing this, and just read a great review of it the other day on IGN.com:

Like 3 years ago i bought that package with 6th Sense, Signs, and Unbreakable. Never watched Unbreakable until last night. Loved it! Not sure why I never watched it. I think i actually got it confused with another movie and thought i had already watched it, and I was wrong. Speaking of movies(I'm a little behind) but I watched 'Mr Woodcock" today and if anyone here hasnt seen it, the main character wears a Journey shirt for a good 1/2 hour of the movie. I just thought it was ironic because that movie has been out for awhile, and i go get it on the eve of the release of the new Album and really, Journey is all i could think about, and then I see him walk out in a Journey shirt.

The Strangers. Big build up. Big letdown. Horrible. I've told myself time and time again I would NEVER go see a scary movie in Theater's again. Once again I give it a chance, and once again I walk out with my butthole bleeding.

No plot. I give it a 4/10 since there were some FANTASTIC jump scenes. Other than that, disappointment. I'll stick with my 80's fav horror movies like Nightmare on Elm Street and Halloween..
