Night Shyamalan Is Done Forum: JoBlo | | Quote: Originally Posted by LordSimen A - List directors usually don't purpose projects as risky as Shyamalan's projects. They're usually very unorthodox and hard to sell to an audience as it is, it's only natural that some studios wouldn't want to take the risk on them even with Shyamalan's name attached. Really, there are multiple reasons why studios might pass on a project. Budget, lack of marketability, fully booked for the year, whatever. Cameron had trouble getting Avatar made because it's budget for the longest time, does that mean his career is over? Not by a long shot. He's the pure definition of A-List. And even if Shyamalan becomes a B-list director, that doesn't mean his career is over. He'll still write his own projects and direct them, they'd just be lower budget. As long as his name is M. Night Shyamalan, and he made The Sixth Sense, someone's going to take him up on his deal based on name-sell alone. But your reasonings are not factual to The Happening. Do some fucking research before you speculate why the studios passed on The Happening. It wasn't because it was deemed a risky project. Facts are your friend. Everyone who read the script thought it was shit and the word on the street was that it was indeed shit. No one wanted to touch it but Fox, but even then they had terms that were not exactly that great for M Knight. Nothing to do with it being risky or a budget problem or whatever else you want to make up that has nothing to do with the facts. |
