If I change my mind, I'll be sure to let you know. :)<br /><br />Hmm... I suppose the camp value of The Happening is something I like. It's tough to describe. I don't think it's a GREAT movie, but I saw it and liked it a lot. I thought it was a good movie (and I didn't have a problem with Wahlberg's performance). Even Ebert gave it a 3-star review, and I was surprised at all the hate the film received. It still holds up as a solid B movie for me. :/Joshhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08596682195753811295noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5030627662498151745.post-66185051485186804832014-07-22T23:01:13.000-04:002014-07-22T23:01:13.000-04:00Haha, I've really gone against the crowd with ...Haha, I've really gone against the crowd with this film. :)Joshhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08596682195753811295noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5030627662498151745.post-55848255847542256672014-07-22T23:00:18.841-04:002014-07-22T23:00:18.841-04:00If you do decide to watch it, I hope you like it. ...If you do decide to watch it, I hope you like it. ;)Joshhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08596682195753811295noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5030627662498151745.post-57563694143620612872014-07-22T22:59:08.185-04:002014-07-22T22:59:08.185-04:00Thanks for adding me!

Like, for camp value right? LOL, Marky Mark is awful in this movie. When he has that conversation with the plant, I almost died.<br /><br />That said, the score is wonderful, and the sound design is impeccable. Just the sound of the wind is incredible.

To be fair, the trailers for that movie were super creepy.

Somehow High Society has never been on my radar. As for The Happening, I purposely deleted it from that radar. For a while, I was actively avoiding M. NIght flicks and not hearing anything good about this one didn't change my mind. I haven't avoided the last few, but haven't felt the need to go back and see what I missed, either. You do make it sound interesting, though. Thanks for participating! Oh, and no worries on missing the deadline. I added it to the links post.<br /><br />One more thing: I nominated you for an award, sir!<br /><br />http://dellonmovies.blogspot.com/2014/07/versatile-blogger-award.htmlDellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05634519605152190304noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5030627662498151745.post-73292711658961420472014-07-21T23:21:21.850-04:002014-07-21T23:21:21.850-04:00Ha, fair enough.

As for The Happening, well I would take that over ANY of the Transformers movies too, but I still don't think it's a good movie. I do think the premise is intriguing and it started well enough but certainly not M. Night's best. ruthhttp://flixchatter.netnoreply@blogger.com
