So last night after the Phantom of the Opera I finally saw The Village, by M. Night. Shyamalan. I guessed the ending, not because I'm a genius (even though I am, obviously) but because it was a blatant rip off of a book I used to read my 5th graders, Running out of Time. Notice the underlining, the hypertexting? Anyway.....hellooooo? Is no one else upset about this? I was blown away by the book when I came across it alomst a decade ago now, and I have yet to come across anyone who has mentioned it and the movie's similarities. I think it's so sad considering how innovative the idea was and to have Shyamalan get all the kudoos, well, it's just not fair.
Humph.
