M. Night Shyamalan's "The Happening" teaser trailer

You know, I really like M. Night Shyamalan. No one would argue that Sixth Sense was nothing short of awesome. Unbreakable was good in an often misunderstood way. Signs is one of my top-10 movies of all time. I liked The Village despite the randomness of the big twist at the end. It was still great. And, although contrary to popular opinion, I enjoyed Lady in the Water. So I would consider myself an M. Night Shyama-fan.

It only makes sense that I am really excited about his new movie “The Happening“. What in the heck is going on? Why are people killing themselves? Has emo music taken over the world? Whatever it is, it looks intriguing. Here is the trailer, you decide:

A Couple of Questions

I came across some random, thought provoking questions online this morning and I thought I would answer them. There were a lot more, so be looking for more of these in the future. But for now, feel free to comment, and to answer them yourself in the comments. Here we go:

1. If you could sport any accent, what accent would you speak with for the rest of the day?

I would have to say an Australian accent. That is HANDS DOWN my favorite accent of all time. If a female is speaking with one, I get the urge to propose. And how manly is the phrase “That’s not a knife, this is a knife!” from Crocodile Dundee. And come to think of it, the 2nd season of Survivor was my favorite. You know, the one in the Australian Outback? So, I would want an Australian accent. And I would use the Dundee line as often as I could.

2. If you won a million dollars and had to spend ALL of it — every last penny, what would you spend it on?

I would do the following:

  • Pay off any and all debts
  • Build a Mac Pro configuration that can only be referred to as “bitchin’”
  • In addition to the Mac Pro, do a “technology upgrade” of my entire house
  • A new car. Or maybe just fix mine
  • Buy my mom a new house
  • Probably spend the rest on Wal Mart gift certificates. You can get almost everything there!

What about you? What accent would you speak for a day, and what would you do with the money?
