Watching Signs (2002)

[guest]

I never wanted to watch this again because I thought Scary Movie 3 would have ruined it, but it hasn't, it holds up by itself.
Rewatching it because of the Mel Gibson thread here... the only fault that I have with it so far (that I've never seen anyone brought up before) is how every channel constantly has the news report of the crop circles, like it's 9/11 or some shit. At this point in the movie there aren't even any aliens yet, just crop circles, yet it's on the news 24/7 on every channel. The fuck?

Signs fucking rules. Probably the last great movie Shayalamamamalman did.

Holds up. Especially when you understand that the "aliens" are demons. Blew my fucking mind when a brotherman explained it to me here.

There absolutely was a time crop circles would get on the news/papers but you never see it anymore. I miss the simple conspiracy tricks of my youth

Yeah but the daughter was watching cartoons and then said it changed to the crop circles news story, and every single channel was playing the same story. Buuuuuullshit!

the aliens not being able to turn a door handle ruined it for me

It’s a garbage plot. “The little girl leaves cups of water around so Joaquin Phoenix can hit then with his baseball bat!”

Absolutely dreadful. Mel yelling at his kid to stop crying is the highlight of the movie.

Jesus, man... can we get a SPOILER tag!

Yep it was horseshit. And water kills them even though the whole atmosphere is filled with water? Gay

Without actually looking it up, I'm almost 100% certain I've seen him agree with the theory.
