Oh, dear...

1. The Last Airbender was, unfortunately, very bad. What a waste of Jackson "Fine Ass" Rathbone. The special effects and fight scenes were mostly good. I loves me some slo-mo action sequences so I can actually see what is going on. But the writing and most of the acting and the overall herky-jerky storytelling was just...yuck. Oh, M. Night. I still love you, though. Not enough to go see another midnight showing of yours, but still...

2. Thanks to the non-stop rain and time of the month, I now am enjoying horrible cramps/my period and the biggest sinus headache ever to set up residence in my noggin simultaneously. Ugh. Everything hurts and squirts. Sorry for the TMI.

3. OHMYGODTHECRAMPS!!!!

4. Due to all of the above, I got nothing done at work today and thus have to work tonight. Which I am going to do momentarily. I swear.

Yeah, I can't stand people who were all, "M. Night is so brilliant!" after The Sixth Sense and Signs, who then turned around and called him a talentless hack after his other movies didn't do as well. Fair weather fans.

However, I do think he needs to lay off the whole directed/written/produced route and let some other people in to help and look at things with a critical eye.

But I still love him. I think Unbreakable is one of the best superhero movies I've ever seen.

Yeah, M. Night definitely needs like a QA department. Someone looking over his shoulder to tell him what the public will and won't accept, because I'm starting to think he can't quite feel that out himself.

I haven't seen Unbreakable! Probably the only one I've missed, other than Airbender.

Agreed. See Unbreakable when you get the chance! It is a great movie, although he takes his time telling the story.
