Movies.com: People have come to expect a certain something from an M. Night Shyamalan movie, so do you find yourself picking projects that are going to manage what has become this idea of you as a brand?

Shyamalan: I guess I would say that I manage it in the sense that I try to make it more accurate. For example, you're saying the audience's relationship started with me with The Sixth Sense. That same year I wrote Stuart Little. That combination is pretty accurate. The breadth of that and my interest in that, the family-oriented nature of that story -- somewhere between there is where a lot of my movies fall, but if you don't take that side of it into account, it's probably more limiting than what my tastes are.

By the way, I ghost-wrote a movie that same year that would even add to the breadth of it all, but I don't know if I want to tell you which movie I ghost-wrote. [Laughs]

Movies.com: We'd love to hear about it.

Shyamalan: I ghost-wrote the movie She's All That. [Laughs]

:heh:

For anyone who is too young to remember this movie ... it basically resurrected the teen movie genre. EVERY. SINGLE. CLICHE/TROPE. can be found in that movie. It was the basis for the spoof Not Another Teen Movie.

This nikka is finally taking credit for She's All That because at this point it's a highlight of his career.

Sidenote: I copped the DVD in Summer of 99 :snoop: must of watched it with every girl on my floor the following year in college.
