M. Night Shyamalan Zitate auf Englisch

Zitat des Tages von M. Night Shyamalan:

When I was a kid, I had two great guilty pleasures. One was horror movies and the other was martial arts movies.

Movies will end up being this esoteric art form, where only singular people will put films out in a small group of theaters.

There is no one looking out for us. We are all alone.

There are a lot of things I can take, and a few that I can't. What I can't take is when my older brother, who's everything that I want to be, starts losing faith in things. I saw that look in your eyes last night. I don't ever want to see that look in your eyes again.

M. Night Shyamalan

I don't want to pretend I'm any cooler or smarter than I am.

See what you have to ask yourself is what kind of person are you? Are you the kind that sees signs, sees miracles? Or do you believe that people just get lucky?

When they see those fourteen lights, they're looking at a miracle. And deep down, they feel that whatever's going to happen, there will be someone there to help them. And that fills them with hope.

The combination of the CGI, 3-D, and sound effects, it's just impossible to separate them. It gives you a more immersive experience, and I prefer that.

Is it possible that there are no coincidences?

M. Night Shyamalan

Are you in my dream too?

Being insecure - I'm a master, a virtuoso - they can be handing me the keys to the kingdom and all I can think is, I hope I don't drop the key.

Movie making is not like other art forms, like painting, or writing a novel, because that can be digested or interpreted... It takes two years to make each one of these, and it's always judged on money.

M. Night Shyamalan

I offer originality: you don't know what my films are like until you go to them. I think that's the reason I've been getting all this attention.

M. Night Shyamalan

When you say 'fear of the unknown', that is the definition of fear; fear is the unknown, fear is what you do not know, and it's genetically within us so that we feel safe. We feel scared of the woods because we're not familiar with it, and that keeps you safe.

M. Night Shyamalan

When I was a kid, I had two great guilty pleasures. One was horror movies and the other was martial arts movies.

The thing that's protected me creatively is that the movies have made profits.
