23-07-Mel Gibson fails to outwit Signs co-star

Mel Gibson was left disappointed after he attempted to play a
practical joke on his Signs co-star.
Gibson, who is known for playing pranks on his co-stars, appear with
Joaquin Phoenix in Signs, the latest film from M Night Shyamalan.
The pair were filming a scene in which Phoenix's character is
watching news of an alien attack in a small room under the stairs of
their farmhouse.
"On take 14, Mel comes crunching down the stairs and he's supposed to
knock on the door of the little room I'm in, enter and then we do our
scene," Phoenix tells www.suntimes.com.
"Well there was a knock, all I see is the lights go out in my little
room and then I notice that I'm locked in this room that's no bigger
than a closet.
"I just sat there patiently for 15 minutes and then when Mel finally
opened the door, I leaned out and did my line," Phoenix says. "Mel
was so disappointed because I gave him absolutely no reaction to his
prank."

21-07-The Deauville Festival

The event, same as Cannes, benefits from the myriad of stars

22-06-New Signs Trailer on E!, news from the Yahoo Signs board

This weekend there is a new trailer
for "Signs" on E!'s "Coming Attractions". It comes on immediately
after the "K-19:Widowmaker" trailer shows. "Signs" is the fourth
trailer in the show.

*Disney company Touchstone Pictures is planning to create crop circles around the world as part of its marketing campaign for its sci-fi movie Signs, starring Mel Gibson. A source at Disney's Buena Vista told Teletext: "We will carve out crop circles at unnamed sites." Most circles appear in July and August - but this year, some will have been created by Signs' film-makers. How Touchstone proposes to alert the world to its landscaped crop circles is not known, but it's thought images of the crop patterns will be posted on the net and used on posters.

18-06-New Signs Still from Cinema Confidential, not from Joaquin though HERE

13-06-I finally got to go to the magazine store to get the magazine Empire

Signs

The pitch: "I see crop circles...." A Pennsylvanian farmer finds mysterious graffiti in his wheat fields.

The spin: Completing a trilogy of twistastic, otherworldly thrillers, M. Night Shyamalan turns his expert attentions to the phenomenon of spooky messages made out of crushed wheat. the highly original idea centres on a farmer-pastor (Mel Gibson) who, in the midst of a crisis of faith, finds a 400-foot crop circle in his cornfield. Is it a message from God, an alien civilasation or just a bunch of hoaksters up to no good? "I enjoy asking the kind of personal questions that people don't necessarily know the answers to, like, 'Is there life after death?' or, 'Are aliens real?'" the elusive Shyamalan says of his latest trip down wierdo avenue. "Although I think they're hoaxes, crop circles are intriguing and seemed like a nice starting point for a creepy story." With the trailers suggesting more than a hint of Close Encounters, Shyamalan is even further stepping into "new Spielberg" territory. For Gibson, the opportunity to work with the new wunderkind was too tempting to turn down: " he has real vision. I'm still figuring out the movie business. When I was his age, I was being toilet trained."

The bottom line: After The Sixth Sense and the more sombre unbreakable, Shyamalan has announced himself as one of the most daring yet commercial filmmakers in Hollywood. Now with a pair of brilliant elusive trailers and the promise of as much humour as terror, the stars are aligned for something special.

ETA: September 13

Empire estimated Box Office $275m

16-05-Thank to HARUKA for this news, an article about Signs HERE from NYpost

* Movieline Summer Escapes May 2002

Do crop circles actually scar anybody? We have never understood why, when confronted with gigantic primitive patters cut out of neatly planed farm fields, people don't automatically figure that someone has gone round the bend in their anthropology research, or someone has finally realized that the farm life is intolerably boring and the whole town could benefit from a harmless hoax, or worst-case scenari that someone in the local high school has been dealing ecstasy. The conclusion you wouldn't come to is that aliens were doing it or that there was some secret meaning to it all. Well, M. Night Shyamalan of The Sixth Sense fame and Unbreakable infamy is out to prove us wrong, and his success at doing so will depend on which of his two previous movies this one resembles. It's a bit of a relief to have Mel Gibson stepping in for Bruce Willis as Shyamalan's star in this one (even if he is the best-looking farmer ever to till the soil of eastern Pennsylvania), and Joaquin Phoenix is classy casting as Mel's younger brother (what did the parents look like?) That said, the trailer to this film isn't a bit spooky, so M. Night has heaps of pressure on him, and we're exceedingly curious about how he'll pull this premise out of the fire, or light a fire under it.

03-05-More Sings Revieuws 1 2

Some of the things they say of Joaquin in Signs

*Joaquin does it again ("Joaquin, you're the bomb!"). He owned the role, thank god Ruffalo dropped out. His character is funny, naive and touching. He has a couple of scenes with Mel that make the movie.

*Joaquin is touching and at times hilarious such as his description of his own personal reason for having faith in god- hint- it has to do with kissing a drunk, about to be violently ill girl and a moment of lucky timing.

*The acting is superb by all involved, especially by Joaquin Phoenix, who was absolutely hilarious.

*Joaquin is very funny in this film and the moment where he confronts Mel Gibson near the end about his lack of faith is one of the movie's best.

*And is wonderfully supported by Phoenix who helps add humor and believably to the family unit in peril.

19-04-I got this from a Yahoo messages board from Signs

Ok, You all aren't going to believe this, but, from what I understand, Buena Vista released a fairly long (30 or 40 minutes) segment from the middle of the film. I guess it was a part of a showcase for their summer movies, or something and was shown to some exhibitors and theater owners (of which my uncle is one in LA). Anyways, from what I heard, the clip was awesome and both Gibson and Phoenix gave great performances. Both Shyamalan and Gibson were on hand for it and I guess the audience really loved it. Geez, I wish I could have seen it!
