Check it Out: M. Night Shyamalan Website Ian DeVere, June 23, 2009June 23, 2009 M. Night Shyamalan, director of such movies as ‘Unbreakable’, ‘Signs’, ‘The Sixth Sense’, and ‘The Happening’ has launched an official website, which is more of an experience than a website.Go to www.mnightshyamalan.com, where you will be taken into a room and given simple instructions: use your arrow keys to move around. Rocket science right there, folks. Now, onto the actual contents. I will say now, that this is NOT a flash site where something will pop out at you (the atmosphere and look of the site implies such a thing). When you move around, there is generally something in your field of vision that you can pick up, move and place somewhere to unlock a special commentary from Shyamalan with his own thoughts on his films, tidbits of trivia about them, and his favorite scenes from each of his films.Since the site is running particularly slow for me for some unknown reason, I couldn’t do everything there was to do on the site. Therefore, see what you can find inside this ‘experience’ and let us know in the comments if you find anything interesting or peculiar in there! It is worth noting that M. Night’s next movie, ‘The Last Airbender’, has a teaser trailer out now (which is playing in front of Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen, along with the new 2012 trailer). The film is currently slated for a July 2nd, 2010 release. Viral Marketing The Last Airbender
