10 Ridiculous Movie Moments That Made Everyone Irrationally Angry

After The Sixth Sense, M. Night Shyamalan knew that his movies needed his signature twist to give fans what they came for. Unbreakable didn’t really have one so M. Night decided his third feature better have one that blew the socks off of everyone in the theatre.

In Signs the aliens come, terrorize the planet and spray their poisonous wrist juice into the nostrils of their enemies. Earth seems doomed, until, their glaring weakness is exposed; they’re allergic to water. Fans yelled, “Why the hell would a species who’s advanced enough to fly to a distant planet come to one that’s made up of 70% water, virtually their kryptonite?” And, they weren’t entirely wrong, but they’re also assuming the race knew what water was or how it’d affect them.

The twist is a clever bit or irony, even if on the surface (Get it? Surface? Like Earth’s Surface? Like Water?) it seems downright dumb. Water, something human’s take for granted severely, is the one thing that saved us from total domination. The film’s critics have an argument, even if it’s pretty loosely standing, but it is not close enough to capsize the otherwise great film.
