I don't think I've ever seen anything like Shyamalan's fall from grace. In 1999, he was being compared to Steven Spielberg. Now he's a punchline.
Maybe The Sixth Sense was just a perfect storm, I don't know. It's hard to explain how Shyamalan could make such a drum-tight, intelligent thriller, then follow it up with so many self-serving and unfocused movies.
