So incredibly stupid. I was actually getting angry watching it. The only reason I didn't shut it off was my girlfriend.

Overrated is an understatement. That guy made one really good movie and then just beat the surprise-ending to death

Signs was possibly the worst movie ever. Aliens invade a planet that's 75% water but also all it takes to kill them is......water ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I feel like his movies could’ve been good but he went out of his way to make them not good.

That's your issue? Not that the psycho parents let their children die or go blind than step outside their dumb village? That town was full of sociopaths!

Clearly the most qualified person to get help.

Who the hell thought it was a good idea to make that movie?

Something tells me Johnston over MDC tomorrow night. Also did anybody else see the 4th period saying Lou is looking for a 3rd line wing to play with Pageau and Wahlstrom. Even mentioned rumors of Komarov to Panthers for B. Connolly but couldn’t make it work because Florida would have to eat some salary.

ISLES WANT 3RD LINE UPGRADE

The New York Islanders are looking to a boost to their third line and GM Lou Lamoriello is trying to acquire a left winger to play with Jean-Gabriel Pageau and Oliver Wahlstrom.

Lamoriello’s problem is his lack of salary cap space. Money in would mean money out, and there aren’t that many teams willing to take on Leo Komarov’s contract right now, especially if the Isles are trying to upgrade their lineup.

There was some chatter circulating about the Islanders and Florida Panthers discussing a swap of Komarov for Brett Connolly, but the Panthers would need to retain a portion of Connolly’s deal or take on another contract in order to make this work. So far, it hasn’t.

With five weeks up until the trade deadline, expect the Isles to cast a few more lines out there in hopes of strengthening their forward corps.

We stay playing at this level he’s going to try but these crap contracts are going to make it real difficult.

I’m willing to illegally cross the border and drive Komarov straight to Sunrise. Free of charge.

I caught that...I doubt they do much but it'll be interesting to see if there is anything they can work out.

I was wondering if they don't consider taking a look at bring Hamonic back as a rental. He's on an expiring (cheap) deal and VAN doesn't look like they're going to end up being in the hunt. Not sure if that's a fit or not, but it'd be good depth if he were cheap.

I thought that whole trilogy was good but I still can't forgive him for The Village. We figured out that twist 10 minutes into the move and suffered the rest of the way through.

It’s not all bad. Lou hit a home run with Martin after all.

Oh for sure. The Village was a cinematic crime of the upmost order.

The Isles are grudgingly listed at #6. Buffalo is about where one would expect.

I did throw a cup of water on her. Not because I thought she was an alien, but because she was making me watch a poop movie. Then she knocked me out with her weird wrist gas. In retrospect I should have used more water.
