M. Night Shyamalan Newsweek argues that M. Night Shyamalan is arrogant. My reaction? The guy writes, produces and directs his own films. Sorry, Newsweek, but in the film business, this gives you the right to be arrogant. Deal with it. Disclosure: I'm a fan of his films and I'll be seeing his newest one on Friday. In my opinion, his lesser films are more interesting than 80 percent of the stupidity at the Box Office.
