M. Night Shyamalan: Glass 1/19/19

[tragabigzanda]

Whenever there's active promotion on the part of somebody else, whenever I see somebody all dolled up for a fancy photograph and someone's handing out flyers or whenever there's active promotion for something like that, as an imposition on my day, I hate all those people and I want them to fail. I have a visceral reaction to advertising and promotion. There's just something about salesmanship that grates on me on a very base level and I react very negatively towards it. I want those people to suffer and I want their enterprises to fail.

i didnt see the movie about the crazy dude but that looked promising

[bada]

I'm in.

This looks great. Love the shot of The Beast running like an animal, and I'm intrigued by the idea of Glass being the central character.

that show was so good yeah...im also intrigued with Glass being the central one, but im guessing it just the title.

Saw it yesterday and i was a bit worried about it because of the bad hype around it. I was expecting to be a mess, and the end be a total failure and embarrassment.

Wow, i just loved it. Amazing, daring, bold, emotional. Kudos to this for not being another copy paste of a comic book movie.

Spoiler: show

i was shocked with the three of them ending dead. really shocked. Wasnt even considering about the doctor motivations. And fuck, that ending struck me hard...the boy, the girl and the old woman, sitting together just waiting and watching. Superb.

I liked a lot of it but there was something about that climactic battle scene that felt so boring and static... people standing around explaining stuff at each other... the feeble-looking group of like four SWAT guys storming the scene... the awkward POV shots from Bruce Willis in that puddle... just didn't hold together very well

[VinylGuy]

I thought the ending was great. I honestly didnt even know what was going to happen...when is the last time i got that from a superhero movie? Not to have a clue about what was going to happen. Ages.

I get that a lot of people are angry because its not the payoff they wanted....but damn, this is bold.

[Jorge]

To me it's not about the resolution but the way the scene was set up and executed. Just felt languid, unexciting and weak

But yeah, this movie has a lot of good things going for it

I did not care for this film

[Blaine Ryan]

I just feel like Unbreakable was stronger as an individual, self-contained story. It ended well. I don't think it needed to be expanded on.

yeah, i agree with that. Its a very good movie for sure. Split seemed like another self contained story too, and Glass makes a very good job on bring them together.
