M. Night Shyamalan

Probably the most overrated film director of all time. The only decent movie he made was "the sixth sense." Other than that this guy makes movies like lady in the water (which i think he was on acid when he wrote this) and the very disappointing "last airbender" which has been called "the most disappointing movie of the year" and "the worst movie of the year."
Dude 1: Hey man did you see "The Last Airbender" last night?

Dude 2: Yea man, biggest waste of my time. Its so bad its almost comical. Don't waste your money on it.

Dude 1: Wow, M. Night Shyamalan has done it again..
