I don't mean that his movies are entirely unenjoyable, and I actually can't even personally attest to the quality of most of his films (I haven't seen any of his movies since Sings, which I did enjoy.)

I'm just saying that this is the conversation I have with my friends every time he releases a movie:

Friends: Oh, an M. Night movie! I'll go see it!

Me: Didn't you hate his last one?

Friends: Yeah, but look at the trailer!

Friends after seeing movie: HOLY CRAP THAT WAS TERRIBLE.

It's like if somebody tells you they hate spinach, and yet they buy it every time they're at the store. I'm not saying it's impossible for someone to like spinach, I'm just saying I don't get why people who previously decided they didn't like it are so amazingly shocked and angry every time they continue to try it.

You would think after a while that people who don't like his movies would go "Hey, this guy's movies aren't for me." But they don't because apparently M. Night flies over the whole country and sprinkles some kind of voodoo pixie dust on everyone to make them ignore reason and logic. Though I guess his plane was broken on this last one.

Ah, cool. Since you just signed "Chris" I thought maybe it was Chris who runs Cubeecraft.
