Happening trailer! | Movie News

UPDATE - The debut of the HAPPENING trailer was apparently not sanctioned by Fox or M. Night Shyamalan and the trailer has been pulled by iKlipz. Hopefully it will turn up soon in some fancy Quicktime HD...
A lot of people jumped off the M. Night Shyamalan bandwagon after LADY IN THE WATER but strangely I kept my seat. I actually enjoyed LITW (begin calling me crazy) and still think the guy is one of the best suspense directors in the game. Perhaps a little of the old hubris has gotten in the way of his filmmaking but let's face it, the guy's got the goods. His latest offering, THE HAPPENING is getting ready to happen this summer with Mark Wahlberg and Zooey Deschanel starring. MNightFans.com just dropped us a line with word that the film's first trailer has mysteriously popped up online at iKlipz. Why didn't Fox run this last night during the Super Bowl?? This would've killed (pun intended)! I'm a big fan of what I see below and can't wait to see the final product. THE HAPPENING opens on June 13th.

Extra Tidbit: The movie opens on Friday the 13th. Spooooky.

I think MKS is a cut above most of his peers, but I really wish he would just let someone else write his stuff. The guy has great premises, but the follow through (and the inevitable "twist" reveal) is almost always painfully lame.
Of course, were someone else to write his stuff,...

Of course, were someone else to write his stuff, he wouldn't be the much-vaunted auteur that he is, right?
Have to agree, his trailers and concepts make you want to see his flicks. Having Zooey star doesn't hurt either.
But hopefully he also holds off on the 7 minute uninterrupted camera positioning in a scene.

Alls we do, day-to-day, on this site and within our friends is BASH Hollywood, especially over the past few years, with all the remakes and rehashes and all the TV shows being made into movies, and here's a guy who CONTINUES to write his own movies, and come up with new and creative ways to make us want to see a movie.
Clowns like Ratner, Boll, McG, and all of those dudes should be lucky enough to pronounce this guy's name! I wish there were more people and filmmakers in Hollywood like Shyamalan. I realize the guy (and his movies) isn't perfect (easy on the ego, dude), but for fuck's sakes...let's support the home-team, folks!
And how about his trailers? Most every single one of the teaser trailers to his films has been INVENTIVE and leaves you ASKING QUESTIONS. In a world...where all we get is trailers featuring the ENTIRE MOVIE in 1:30 minutes, more kudos go out to Shyamalan for HOLDING BACK.
Can't wait to see this and whatever else you come up with, dude.

I'll give it a go but I expect little...maybe that will help me enjoy it a bit more.

not what i thought this movie was going to be about. but now that i know, i want to see it even more.
oh, and zooey deschanel. i'd watch 90 minutes of a brett ratner or uwe boll home movie if zooey happened to be a family friend who made a cameo.
oh. "happened." see what i did? didn't even mean to.

"There appears to be an event happening."
"Could this really be happening?"
Sigh...
