	I do agree that there are other directors that are more deserving of a quiz. However I don't believe he was a "one trick pony" the Sixth Sense was a classic but I liked Unbreakable just as much. So, maybe he was a two trick pony, lol!!

	You know you're a fan if you got the two that preceded The Sixth Sense.

	I disagree Patrick, and so do millions of people out there. Just look at his box office success and DVD sales.

	he's an okay director...his movies are kinda out there, though.

	I didn't consider myself a fan, but I didn't know Unbreakable was his - I really liked that film.

I think this quiz is suitable, he has so few films it's easy to remember all but the first two. I stopped watching him with the 2002 one. Such an awful movie.

	Figures I'd miss the only movie of his I like. The others were all okay, but none of them touch Unbreakable in my eyes. That one's a great movie.

	for some reason I was under the impression that Sixth Sense was his first movie. Guess it was just his first hit.

	Worst director ever? Come on, his scripts are terrible, but at least the films are well made. If you want a terrible director, check out Bert I. Gordon, Roger Corman, David Hills, Coleman Francis, Sam Newfield, Edward D. Wood, Paul W. S. Anderson, or Uwe Boll. They all make Shaymalan look like Francis Ford Coppola.

	any time i hear M Night's name, i always think of the skit from Robot Chicken where after anything happens, M Night looks at the camera and says "what a twist!" Is it just me, or is "Lady in the Water" one of the worst titles for a movie? I remember seeing the preview and the movie looked all intense, and then the title came up and i was like "really? that's it"...in my opinion, the sixth sense was the only good movie he made. feel free to agree or disaggree, but thats how i feel

I didn't get his first two films. Overall, though, He makes one or two good films and then makes one or two bad ones. Very unpredictable, but I like him.

	beckleyman:	Dec 18th, 2008 at 22:09 GMT	3 points
	His last two movies have been pretty boring. The Happening had an interesting story to it, but I just didn't like the way it was executed. Lady-yeah, that was a pretty horrible movie. In fact, I really only like one of his movies-Unbreakable. Amazingly, I've never watched Sixth Sense....

	@John Lambeth: SPOILER ALERT!: I liked "The Village" too, although it breaks my heart that I was taking an Art and Architecture in America class at the time. When the first shots of the houses came in, I turned to my wife (then girlfriend) and said, "Wait a minute, these houses were certainly not in style during colonial times. They didn't come about until much later." Kinda ruined it for me.

	Bad director? You could say that. Worst director? Not even close. Uwe Boll makes him look like Martin Scorsese

	I was in Wide Awake, he filmed it at my grade school. Just thought I'd share since I'm cool like that.

	Sixth Sense and Unbreakable were amazing films!! But everything since have been colossal piles of crap. Actually The Village was bearable... not good, bearable.

	This quiz should have some sort of a twist at the end...

	Shyamalan's movies are at least decently made, even if the plot tends to go a bit hokey at the end.

	DeeJay:	Mar 13th, 2009 at 17:55 GMT	1 point
	And he's definitely not worse than Uwe Boll. That guy can't do -anything- right. Have you seen any of his movies? They're just really badly made films. They can't even get the effects right.

	JohnJF:	Mar 23rd, 2009 at 04:38 GMT	1 point
	He's an okay director who has made some very good movies; he just happens to be immensely overrated.

	the happening is hands down the worst movie i have ever seen

	Eh. The Village. Awful, awful film :(

	I only know Sixth Sense and forward

	Lady in the Water is the worst movie I have ever seen. I recommend it to all my friends so that when we discuss movies we have a lowest common denominator to compare all other horrible movies to.

	LAX_Girl:	Sep 20th, 2009 at 17:11 GMT	1 point
	I think most of his movies are terrible. The Village? Come on, not scary. His only decent one is the sixth sense.

	BSF5775:	Nov 1st, 2009 at 20:31 GMT	1 point
	yep i agree. overrated and tries too hard. after sixth sense he hasnt made anything i would see more than once. i liked signs until the ending, and havent bothered to see lady in the water.

	SillyStokey92:	Nov 11th, 2009 at 16:19 GMT	4 points
	The Last Airbender should be an extra answer. :)
