The Happening. AKA: The Air Is Killing Us!

[Duel]

In a world...

Something is suddenly killing us all.

It's the air.

Or whatever.

I dunno, bees?

Early review. It's gonna suck so much.

Duel, if you twist is that the air is killing people, you will recieve an infraction for the topic title.

Not the "twist", but rather, the premise.

*** SPOILERS ***
The Happening is a paranoid thriller in which a family must survive a global environmental crisis that is caused by trees and plants releasing deadly neurotoxins.
*** END SPOILERS ***

For some reason I thought that was obvious in the trailer, but I went back and re-watched it and it really isn't.

I've heard that there is no twist whatsoever, though. Is that a spoiler?

Re: The Happening. AKA: The Air Is Killing Us!

I know the twist. It's not the air.

It's something simultaneously not as dumb yet even dumber.

unmarked spoilers will be punished, peoples.

PS, the twist was already given away in that synopsis.

I dunno, I really wanna like M. Night but he's really making The Sixth Sense look more like a fluke rather than setting the bar so high that he can't possibly surpass it.

Wha? Spoiler? I posted that cause it's from the wikipedia article...I didn't think they posted spoilers for movies that weren't out yet on wikipedia. I assumed thats SUPPOSED to be common knowledge. oO

The Happening has to be the worst title in the history horrible stupid dumb titles. Seriously, when the trailer showed at Iron Man the whole audience cracked up when the title appeared.

[Stormy]

Re: The Happening. AKA: The Air Is Killing Us!

The same thing happened when I saw Iron Man. Also there was a collective "Oh, that makes sense" kinda noise when everyone saw M. Night's name show up.

Re: The Happening. AKA: The Air Is Killing Us!

Yea, same thing happened when I saw Iron Man. M. Night's achieved risible status now.

It's because he think he's some kind of mad genius, when really all the guy can do is frame a shot well.

Jumping on The Happening is a dumbass title bandwagon.

Re: The Happening. AKA: The Air Is Killing Us!

It's rated R, though!

Could be really scaaaaaaary!
