Thanks for the info HeyJude!

R. Daylight Shaggybambalam as writer/director huh? (hey, I'm Indian so I can make fun of his name!) I'm not so sure I like G. Midmorning Scrappylamahamadan. His movies kinda aggravate me. Then again, I aggravate many people so I should cram it. It'd be interesting to see it as a film...I keep thinking Waterworld meets Castaway. But if the thought of that gives you chills, I feel your pain (no insult to Castaway intended).

I do not like Shyamalan either. more than that, on the love-hate scale it's closer to hate. Maybe it's because i'm not a fan of suspense/horror, but his films just don't do anything for me, except the feeling of the wasted time.

I loved the book too! It's one of those books you can't put away until you finish it, and then afterr you finished it you feel sorry that there isn't more. I was really surprised by the end, I think it's wonderful.
