FAQ: (Questions that are asked to me OFTEN, will answer here)
Q: Why is a small portion of the video completely muted?
A: Copyright reasons. Sometimes I get hit with copyright claims AFTER the video has already been posted, my only choice is to refute the claim but if TH-cam denies it, I have to either take down the video or mute the small portion they are claiming. If the video has been up for a while, it is much easier for me to mute this small portion in the YT studio and then unmute it months later after people aren't watching the video as much.
Q: Why is the movie not as loud as I want it to be, why can't you show more of it uncut?
A: Copyright reasons. Notice a pattern here? Most of your questions will likely be answered with some type of copyright related reason.
Q: Why is the movie footage flipped?
A: Again, copyright reasons. I am watching the movie the normal way, it is only flipped for the video.

This is my personal favorite Shyamalan movie. The dinner table scene always gets to me, and Gibson hearing about his wife's accident is always devastating.
Nothings gonna stop us from enjoying this meal SO ENJOY IT! STOP CRYING!!!
@@GrabaCuppaPodcastI hate you…you let mom die
For real man this movie is brilliant. My dad saw it in theaters and the day it dropped on DVD/VHS/TV my dad showed it to us kids (we were pretty young😂). Scared the shit out of us and scarred us for a long time. We grew up surrounded by forests and cornfields just like the family did. If the corn was up you didn’t want to go outside at night. If you did have to, you armed yourself and begged a sibling to come with you. Even to this day I get paranoid late at night outside when the corn is up. Granted I am a man and I usually pack heat with me 24/7😂
I watched this movie when I was young and it was the first time I saw aliens in a movie that were full sized. When Joaquin Phoenix jumped backwards in his chair I did the exact same thing, lol.
That scene is absolutely terrifying!
When I was younger I didn’t notice how big it was but him being that scared made me really scared too
6 year old me was terrified. By the end of the movie, my legs were literally shaking from fear. Couldn't sleep for weeks, it didnt help that the door to our attic was in my bedroom closet.
It's hard to explain but this is like a comfort film for me- maybe because I've seen it so many times. I love how everything in this movie has a purpose you know?
That’s my favorite thing about a film, when every scene has importance to some revelation in the ending
💯 Same!!
YOU MISSED THE POINT: This movie is about faith and how God works in mysterious ways and there were signs and miracles in their life. GOD gave his son asthma to save him from the aliens, GOD gave his daughter an obsessive compulsive disorder to have water around to save them from the aliens, GOD made Mel's brother have super hitting strength to kill the aliens, GOD killed his wife to give him the message as to how to proceed against the aliens so he would remember it. Mel HATED GOD for putting all these things in his life but God put them there to save him. Mel quit being a minister because of these awkward elements that he blamed God for putting in his life. At the end, Mel realized that none of these things were coincidences but were put there by God to save them. Realizing this, he became a priest again! YES, SOMEBODY DID SAVE THEM.
I used to watch this every other night coming home from work. Definitely a comfort film and it's weird to say that. @Happy Mouth Sandra didn't miss the point because with God, everything has a purpose. I don't think you should assume people need mansplaining when you two are talking about the same darn thing.
@@happymouth9318 Too bad God didn't save everyone else who got killed by the aliens 😔✌️
Very underrated movie, love how they portray the beliefs.
The Village is also a very good M. Night Shyamalan movie. At the time it came out, it was different, so some people weren't sure what to think. But it has been a lot more appreciated in recent years. Also stars Joaquin Phoenix.
I really enjoyed The Village. It's a polarizing movie; some people loved it, some people hated it. I'm in the former because it has the most lush, authentic, interesting atmosphere and general feel of Shyamalan movies. Bryce Dallas Howard is a stronger actress than I expected. And it had a few very-well-shot rather jolting scenes in it. And the fancy James Newton Howard music goes without saying.
While I didn't like the Village as there wasn't much of a payoff, I respect the hell out of MNS for making HIS movie and not doing what everyone expected with that film
@@commsense1979 Regardless of its flaws, I still enjoyed The VIllage's extreme old-fashioned vibe, visual appearance and very heavy, old-fashioned atmosphere. Not to mention that Newton-Howard fancy violin music. I still think The Village is worth at least one watch.
The Village was a major flop. The twist was extremely predictable. It's one of M. Night's worst movies.
@@rubio9478 ok and that’s your opinion get over it.
Never been more creeped out in my live after leaving a theater after seeing this movie. This movie has crazy atmosphere and tension
Yeah Signs scared me more than most of the typical horror movies, even tho technically is not even a horror movie. That's what makes it so good, it genuinely makes you feel terrified with it's atmosphere and the few jumpscares are justified and it pays off. The alien reveal on that kids Birthday party is ingrained into my brain for 20 years.
The only other alien movie that gave me absolute dread was "Incident at Lake County". It may not hold very well as effects go these days, but man when I watched it as a kid it terrified me, it was one of the 1st "found footage" films and there was no such genre back in 1998 and many people actually thought it was real, that's what made it so special. That's 1 year before the Blair Witch Project came out.
The Brazilian birthday party recording scene is the scariest to me
The foreshadowing and how everything came full circle is a master class in writing.
Agreed!
Btw that was Shyamalan acting in the car with the blood on his shirt 👌
This movie is soooo good that even as like a 7 year old I didn’t understand all the deep thinking and scene but I still loved this movie.
aye i was seven when i first watched it too! It remains my favorite alien movie, along with war of the worlds.
This is my favorite Shyamalan film (and honestly one of my favorite movies EVER)! I love the double meaning of the title (crop signs and signs/miracles). I find it very funny in a subtle, quirky way that I love. And as a Christian I appreciate the overall themes. My mom was working at out church when this came out and a bunch of the staff members went on a little field trip to see it and then left a tinfoil hat on the pastor's desk! 😂 My Christian college also played it on Halloween at the one-screen theater on campus. 😊 In addition to Unbreakable, you should definitely watch The Village!
19:33 the amount of stress at the dinner table scene makes me start tearing up.
Love this movie. And the scene where the camera pans across the room with all the glasses of water gives me chills. And they both just look at each other for a second. I like the editing a lot.
The part where he watches the video and the alien pops out scared the shit outta of me as a kid.
Also the little boy is Charlie from Scream 4.
Loved your reaction to this, it's a beautiful movie.
The Village is also a nice Shyamalan-movie, it might not be as good as The Sixth Sense and Signs but I find it really interesting and the soundtrack is AMAZING.
The writing on this movie was so amazing. It was a great film for sure. I loved it.
Love this underrated film, scared me so much as a kid lol. And that reveal of the alien in the TV's reflection at the end is one of my favorite jump scares of all time. The score for this film is one of my favorites of Howard's too, for sure.
It's rated perfectly fine. 🙄
M.Night has great films, his writing is always consistently on par. The fact that he has a cameo in his films is a bonus but honestly you should watch more of his films; The Village, The Happening, The Visit but especially Unbreakable, Split and Glass (In that order as they’re almost a trilogy). Enjoying your channel immensely-so a big thanks from here in OZ.
The village
The Village and The Happening get so much hate but they’re great movies!
The death of Grams wife too was the reason why his brother moved in with him. If it wasn’t for the wife dying his brother wouldn’t have been there.
I remember when I first saw this movie. I was like 14/15, and it was someone's birthday (mine or my siblings), but the party was over, and the only one still at my house was my aunt. I remember us watching and right as they reveal the aliens, a balloon randomly popped and scared the shit out of my aunt lmao.
I was so traumatized after seeing this movie for the first time, I think I was like 8 or 9 back then... Now it's one of my all time favourites movies
Maaaaaaan, in 2002 I was 13. My friends birthday happened to be Halloween day, so her birthday party was hosted the night before, as to not overlap with the trick or treating.
8 of my closest friends and I sat down to watch Signs. And I tell you, it was terrifying.
Funny enough, what was planned for the party afterwards?? The 9pm corn maze in town that goes up every year for Halloween.
So at 13, I watched THIS movie and then went to a f*cking corn maze in the dark.
We were screaming bloody murder around every corner. 🤣🤣🤣👌
It was great. Hahahahah
That sounds truly amazing
What most people seem to skim over is his wife's death. Deep down I thought "why not dreams, or visions instead of killing his wife" then it dawned on me. The hardest, most difficult things to forget are memories locked in by trauma. Things like the loss of a loved one, immense stress, and risk to your health and/or sanity, all stick with us no matter how hard we try to forget. To get him to remember the message no matter what, he needed a traumatic event to make sure it wouldn't fade. Nothing lasts longer than the loss of those you hold dear.
If there ever would be an Alien invasion I believe it would be a lot like this movie because this movie has a more life like tone to it than other alien invasion movies which always attends to have too much action in them.
The opening was definitely like an Alfred Hitchcock movie.. awesome you caught that
Fusion guy’s back!!! Signs was awesome!!! M Night was on fire around this time. The Sixth Sense, Unbreakable and Signs!!!! Sigh…..
great reaction - this one is also my favorite M. Night movie, underrated as heck - he has a way of getting great performances out of kids. Both Joaquin and Mel slaying it in a character-focused horror/thriller
One of the best ones he ever did for sure!!..you should check out "unbreakable" it's another m.night Shyamalan movie with Bruce willis..that one is probably my favorite movie of is
Saw this movie when i was like 4-5 and the news scene still gives me chills im 24
This is such a good movie and Mel Gibson´s performance is as well really good and despite everything else I think he is a great director, if you haven´t seen the movie Apocalypto you should definitely react to that one. And as always loved your reaction!
Thank you! I have not heard of that movie so I'll add it to the list!
Saw this in theater as a kid. It was an older theater so the chairs were a little cheap/old,
so during the jump scares I could hear the whole theater shift in their seats. 😆
I unironically really like the movie. Some people hate on it because of the director, but it's a classic for me personally.
So far I'm loving Shyamalan's movies (only seen this and The Sixth Sense tho)
@@MovieFusion "The Village" and "The Lady in the Water" are similar movies if you're wanting more like "Signs" 👍
This movie had a serious psychological impact on me when I was a kid. Our dad showed it to my siblings and I when it came out on DVD/TV about a year after release. We grew up in a rural county in Illinois. The biggest town only had 3500people in it. And we lived way away from that. Surrounded by cornfields and thick forests similar to their house in this movie. Anyway after watching this movie there was no going out at night unless you really had to. And when you did you had to talk a sibling into going outside with you. At the time we threw pocket knives in our pockets just in case lol. To this day any time I walk outside at night instead of a pocket knife I am strapped, locked, and loaded lol. Didn’t help that my home county has the most UFO sightings per capita in the state and the surrounding states. Which is impressive considering how few people we have here. Nothing will ever likely happen but you had better be damned sure that I will be ready if or when it does 😂
If you haven't seen Braveheart, give it a watch! stars Mel Gibson.
Oh also!.. “Arrival” is a good movie. Doesn’t have Gibson or anything but something you just said made me think of it.
My favorite Shyamalan movie. This isn't really an "alien" movie. To me, it's really a movie about a man who lost his faith and, through a series of amazing circumstances, regains it. The alien stuff was the vehicle to move him through his faith journey. I also love the way the backstory with his wife was interstitched and the payoff was perfectly timed. Just fantastic stuff. Glad you reacted to this.
I love when you say : " All scenes matters "
You godam right !!!
Saludos desde México , es mi película favorita de shyamalan
I saw this in the theaters, 12 years old. Freaked me the hell out!
I don't know if you've seen it but Shyamalan's second best movie (after The Sixth Sense) is Unbreakable; the twist at the end is horrifyingly creative. And the JNH music crescendos may bring tears to your eyes.
This is one of those movies you can watch over and over and you pick up stuff you didn’t see before.
You mentioned how this film is different from a lot of other alien invasion movies, showcasing it from a simple family's POV, and War of the Worlds is similar in that regard. I saw quite a few people recommend it in your Minority Report reaction, and I'll echo that suggestion. These are great movies all around.
Merril: "Give me some comfort..."
Graham: "Uuuh... No."
I think this film at its core is a simple drama, it simply just has a lot of scary thriller and horror elements mixed in so that it can be more than just a drama.
That’s why it doesn’t feel like it’s a normal horror film, because it’s sole purpose is not just to scare and shock you - more than anything it’s there to explore human themes and concepts - it just so happens that one of those themes is our human existential dread - our relationship with the unknown and how it can either make us or it can break us and lead us into terror and uncertainty. The concept of something greater and more powerful out there could be terrifying or it could be comforting, it all depends how you choose to think about and look at it.
One of my favourite films. It just so perfectly hits on so many elements from drama to horror so effectively, it’s not often in a film you’re feeling terrified but also about to break into tears because you are so scared for the characters and you’re so moved with how they’re confronting the scary scenario. When you care about the characters that much you’re not only terrified but you’re feeling their potential last moment’s sadness and it just breaks your heart.
Masterclass in film-making and storytelling and great reaction from you!
Very underrated movie I love it so much so much emotions so many mixed beliefs
29:13 Your pure emotion! This is why you're my favorite reaction channel. You're so authentic. Keep up the great work!
One of my all time favourites. So glad you loved it. 😍
I like your enthusiastic movie insights, please keep these vids coming!
“ I am open to the possibility, but unless I see it with my own eyes then I cannot say it is “, healthy skepticism there!
I’m fortunate/unfortunate my scepticism was severely challenged by an experience, but I cannot ask anybody to believe me because all I have is my word and if somebody else told me the story I would say it was interesting but I would have to see it myself.
Yay a tear! Lol great reaction. Tis a good one, even with its "flaws" it is overall a well made & movie & story
This movie scared the shit out of me when I was a kid and this Shyamalan's best film in my opinion!
this movie is one of my most favorite sci fi movies of all time
THE INTRO ESPECIALLY THE MUSIC IS SUCH A GREAT TRIBUTE TO HITCHCOCK
It’s my favorite alien movie! The writing made me feel in between . Having faith or just believing you are lucky. Like my life is rough so it just pulls on my heart a lot . :) this film is just movie magic lol
The first movie that really got me into M. Night Shyamalan
@15:50 that’s M Knight. He always makes a small appearance in every movie he does.
Sorry for the comment dump lol
Watching someone react to this for the first time is so awesome haha. “Oh the crop circle I guess that’s why they call it signs.”
“He’s a priest?… oh not anymore” haha
When you got to the basement scene , you said you really starting to like the movie. I'm betting you'll love it by the twist at the end. M. Night does a great job with his character development. I personally love the finding your faith aspect to this movie.
One of, if not best written movies of all time. The acting, the score, the way the story all connects at the end.. it’s just brilliant. A true masterpiece. Awesome to see this film get the appreciation it deserves.
This movie was peak Shyamalan. It was so touching and thrilling and just amazing. He has not maintained this quality but I will always respect him because he made this movie. Also it’s a shame Gibson is such a troll irl because his acting has always been my favorite. I had such a crush on him as a teen.
Maybe one day you'll see the truth behind what those who run Hollywood(and most everything else) have always done, some of which he witnessed personally, and then you'll be back to crushing on him. I pray so...
Awesome reaction video! Subscribed!
Thank you!
That Goatee is GOAT., Dude.
I'm sure it's been brought up, but when the Alien reveal itself at the kid's birthday party, the entire audience screamed and went crazy like the people in the video. And I don't think that that reveal has anything to do with technology, it deals only exclusively in storytelling! The storytelling is what shocked the audience. Shamalan's showmanship is what sold the scene! Showmanship is what modern movies are completely lacking, which is why many don't like the MCU or other modern superhero films.
omg I can't believe you've never seen this great flick
One of my all time favorite movies.. Being a dad and watching this is such a different experience than when I watched it when I was younger. And you realize that Graham is telling his kids their birth stories because at that moment he deep down doesn't think they'll make it through the night.
Always made me think of Roman's 8:28: "and we know that all things work together for good, for those who love God, who are the called, according to His purpose."
Such an awesome movie!!!
I really like this one. Good acting all around, the kids were great, particularly during the emotional scenes like at the dinner table.
This movie is not really a horror movie, IMDB categorizes it as "Mystery" and "Sci-Fi", which it is. But out of all the horror movies that I've watched and were made this century, this is the one that actually scared me. It's the suspense, the tension that gets me.
Great reaction and glad you enjoyed the film!
Loved watching your reaction. I absolutely love this movie, and I am so gad this affected you the same way.
This one covers a lot of ground. Mashing together aliens, family tragedy and religious struggles all together was unique.
Shyamalan loved all the old school "horror" movies and uses a lot of old school techniques when filming, like really long shots, panning, shooting action in the background (so there is something happening closer to the camera but the story is happening in the background), alternating focus, crowding characters together in a shot........and his composition is so beautiful.
This movie gave me the creepies for months first time I saw it.. i couldn’t look at any window at night for the longest lol
Good reaction! Besides that, what a lovely smile you have 🤭 ❤️
I'm pretty sure this director also worked with another famous story writer who was in the insidious movies so he also directed them but the guy who wrote the stories was just genius. The director I think also did the saw movies too
I do love the score in this movie. It just sets you on the edge and keeps you there for the entire movie.
Director waited until M. Gibson was ready for the couch act
Shyamalan has very good movies, for me this one and The Village were my favorites in movie teathers when I was a teenager. I love your reaccions.. and yes, I also cry with Mel Gibson. Greetings from Chile

Instant subscriber to anyone who reacts to this gem
Awesome reaction! Love this movie and script 👽 so cool to see you enjoy it and that it moved you. Shyamalan is a genius (he actually did a cameo in the movie: he's the guy that locked the alien and killed Mel Gibson's wife). And ur right his characters and their dynamics are awesome. Hope you get to react to the Unbreakable trilogy (it has samuel Jackson!) and his latest movie "Old".
You should see the guilty pleasure movies Waterworld and Dinosaur because both have the most epic, giant James Newton Howard scores you’ll ever hear.
Shyamalan is such a fascinating writer/director, because when his movies work, they REALLY work, and when they don’t, they REALLY don’t. He’s one of those ambitious storytellers who just goes full throttle and then sees if the finished product is awesome or a big mess.
One of my top ten. The writing, acting and directing are all amazing
This movies freaked me out when I first saw it (10 years old). I couldn’t sleep straight for weeks
I've never understood why Sixth Sense got so much love and attention and this film gets swept under the rug. Very good movie as well.
This and Sixth sense to me are not horror.
They present themselves as horror but in the end they’re overwhelmingly positive and wholesome.
A boy discovers his curse isn’t a curse and uses it to help lost souls. (Adult chole could have been in glass.) he reconnects with his mother, becomes popular and help Malcolm overcome his regrets.
Here a man who lost his faith after a senseless accident took his wife fears he’ll lose the rest of his family to aliens.
Throughout the ordeal despite his efforts he doesn’t believe they’ll prevail. Then when the crisis has passed his fears are proven right and his son is about to die. He has an epiphany that God is real and laid an elaborate plan for the Hess family to survive.
He needed to protect Morgan from the gas, so gave him asthma. Needed to provide water to use so gave Bo a hydrophobia.
Needed Meryl to be in the house with his bat so helped him hit a record to make sure he kept the bat.
He needed grahams wife to die so Meryl would move in, and also so she could pass on the message to Graham that allowed him to make these connections.
Without her death they wouldn’t have survived the final act, What mother in the world wouldn’t agree to give up her life so her husband and kids would live.
I like to believe god gave her a choice before the accident.
Signs is about a very lost and hopeless man, regaining that faith and hope through a horrible ordeal. There something so beautiful in that.
And as if it matter I’m an atheist
These kinds of movies horrify me. I’ve seen a lot of UFO’s and supernatural stuff in my youth. After I turned 18 it all stopped.
It’s fun to see that so many young people nowadays don’t correlate crop circles with aliens xD
"Signs (2002)" Perfectly acted by the entire cast and still a very re-watchable movie.
I love when Gibson picks up Abigail Breslin off the swing and she stays curled up. But I hate that scene because we have a German Shepherd.
Filmmaker M. Night Shyamalan has played characters in 11 of his movies. In this one he plays the man who fell asleep at the wheel and killed his wife.
Good flick. Great use of mood, setting, characters, tension, score. And it has the proper amount of comedy relief peppered in to balance things out for the audience. I can forgive its flaws and just enjoy it as an effective and classy "monster movie".
This is such an underrated movie. I think there were a lot of high expectations soon after Sixth Sense and Unbreakable, and I do think the finale is a little off with how the reveals pay off, but I still love it and think it’s excellent - the writing, the acting, the meticulous way he frames the camera and builds suspense, are so good. And you have Newton Howard’s epic score. I know he looses favor as he goes on in his filmography but there has always been at least one sequence, or , theme or character in M S’s movies that are pure film making brilliance, and have surprised me, or moved me, or taken my breath away (Unbreakable is a masterpiece ( you should watch), but something like The Village which has some iffy stuff, has whole chunks of just excellent filmmaking).
it pretends to be an alien movie but its actually a movie about faith
One of my favorites as a kid.
Also The Visit by M. Night is good too.
Another thing that wrapped up nicely was Joaquin´s "ass whoopin time". Well, when we are at that, its worth mentioning that those aliens were particularly pathetic...
Unbeknownst to many, Mel Gipson is a wicked Three Stooges fan hence the phrase “I’m loosing my mind!”
Damn got me tearing up too haha
This has always been a personal favorite for me
Part of the reason a lot of people are fascinated with crop circles (other than the hoaxes which are done with wood boards), a lot of the real crop circles are so meticulously created that the corn stalks themselves are actually not broken at all, just very carefully bent. There's so much history with these things, they're not all hoaxes. Just a bunch of the first media-covered ones were hoaxes. But the real ones are scientifically baffling.
