The M. Night brand ain't hurtin'. But dude's writing is slippin' fierce. I enjoy the cat's work... but THE HAPPENING forgot to happen. And that wasn't a director's error. That's a writer's error. That's the problem with writer/directors who are brands. There's no one to tell them "Yo.... rewrite that."

And I ain't plea coppin' for Quentin. That dude's just as guilty. If not more. But that wasn't the question posed in the headlining post.
