Slate has an interesting defence of M Night Shyamalan today that's actually worth reading. Not only does it cut the guy a little slack (yes, his last couple of films have sucked rather a lot, but then Hitchcock had his bad streaks, too), it includes some snippets from The Man Who Heard Voices: Or, How M. Night Shyamalan Risked His Career on a Fairy Tale, which sounds absolutely hilarious.

Tue 18 Nov: Does it count in the CSI: Miami drinking game if David Caruso and Emily Procter are apparently in the same scene together, but they never speak to each other and you never see both their faces at the same time?
Sat 15 Nov: The Ascent of Money "sponsored by Cayman Islands". Huh. What's going on there then?
Sun 02 Nov: Do you think it's deliberate that Sam's mom in the US version of Life on Mars is called Rose Tyler?
