Beyond the aspect ratio you can still see crew stuff, mics, etc. 98% of the time, that's what's happening. If I see this on TBS one day and then I see a boom mic, well, then we'll know for sure.<BR/><BR/>But, yeah, you can't fucking outrun wind, five year olds know that. Dumbest chase scene ever.<BR/><BR/>I'm not actually angry this time, and I'll write more about that later. His films have begun to occupy a cultish category outside of good or bad (though this one, and Lady in the Water, are undeniably awful films). It's not camp. It's not good. It's not bad. It's fingernails on a chalkboard.

I would warn about spoilers but, it would be impossible to spoil this nightmare, plus I don't think it'll make sense unless you've seen it.<BR/><BR/>-Show don't tell, Mr. Night. ("Call Mommy!
