    Re: Signs really freaked me out (NO REAL SPOILERS) —Dave Schuler
   (...) I'd caution against overuse of the term "genius," which has been used to describe Tim Burton and Alanis Morisette, for pity's sake! In any case, I'd have to object that, IMO, Signs was the weakest of his "main" three films. The atmosphere--his (...) (22 years ago, 9-Aug-02, to lugnet.off-topic.fun)

        Re: Signs really freaked me out (NO REAL SPOILERS) —Shaun Sullivan
     (...) Actually, I have to admit that I've been pretty impressed with him. I mean, the Fast and the Furious was entertaining, but it certainly wasn't high art or anything. But aside from that (and, presumably, his performance in XXX), he's an (...) (22 years ago, 9-Aug-02, to lugnet.off-topic.fun)

        Re: Signs really freaked me out (NO REAL SPOILERS) —William R. Ward
   (...) Hmm, did I miss one? Sixth Sense and Signs are the only two I can think of. (...) "Extremely talented" and "genius" aren't the same thing, but when you're talking about an entertainer, that's the common usage. And by that definition, I'd say (...)
