{"title": "Trap 2024: oh... M. Night Shyamalan is Back, Baby!", "timestamp": 1779900019.2422338, "description": "We are living in the most exciting era when it comes to [M. Night Shyamalan](). The era I would call \"A lottery\". M. Night started strong. Critical acclaim and commercial success hit him hard, when he was a young film-maker. They were calling him \"the next Spielberg\". Then doubt possessed his sole. Some critics said something about something he did. And there he went. On a downward spiral towards the bottom. *The Happening*, *The Last Airbender*, *After Earth*... M. Night never truly recovered from this turmoil. He did great films since: *The Visit*, *Split*, *Knock at the Cabin*. But he then made strangely not so great films in between: *Glass*, *Old*, the strangely *The Happening* esque ending of *Knock at the Cabin*. Going today to an M. Night Shyamalan movie is truly a lottery. You never know what you are gonna get. With *Trap* we all got a fucking jack-pot!", "author": {"avatar": "https://blenderdumbass.org/pictures/favicon.png", "bio": "Aka: J.Y. Amihud.
