uses of allusions and symbolism that relate
the "real world" portrayed in the film
to the world of comics.
Some of these allusions are extremely obvious,
while others are not.
Please take note that none of these assumptions are set in stone.
These are just theories.
Although as you read, I hope you come to find that
Shyamalan may have crafted some of the most
visually engaging narrative themes
in recent memory...
I've never been that in to comic books, so this is probably only
the tip of the ice berg in terms of the allusions and symbolism
that Shyamalan crafted into this film. And I do realize
that some of this is very far-fetched,
but it's fun to speculate.
We'll just have to wait for the DVD for any real proof.
If you have any more ideas or theories, E-Mail me at

or post them in the message board and
I'll get them up as soon as I can.
Thanks.
