A new clip from M. Night Shayamalan's After Earth titled "Monkey Discovery" has been released. In it, young Jaden Smith does indeed discover a monkey, who is extremely upset at being forced to star in an M. Night Shyamalan film. Justly so, I think.

I wouldn't say I was at all optimistic that M. Night Shyamalan would ever make a decent movie again after the Airbender debacle, but I did assume he knew the theory of evolution. I guess not, though.

Get a good luck at the gigantic creatures Will Smith's son will have to fight in M. Night Shyamalan's post-apocalyptic adventure After Earth. Set on Earth... after... something.

The past master of the twist, M. Night Shyamalan, is developing a Twin Peaks style series titled Wayward Pines. Fox has finished a deal with Shyamalan for this series, penned by Chad Hodge (The Playboy Club) and adapted from the Blake Crouch book Pines. Here's the official synopsis from the novel:
