My guess is maybe these people are on another planet. They got grabbed by aliens and their home is just a habitat in a zoo

Hopefully she does something different other than try to follow in her fathers (failed) footsteps.

He made some good movies. His biggest failure was the Airbender movie. But his other stuff wasn't so bad

She was in Equalizer 3 recently

Also movie looks intriguing, but they sound like bugs. If they're bugs I'm not watching.

Could anybody make out what the back of the DVD box said? "Property of Prof something something ots"?

That was like her debut movie. So you missed her entire career pretty much . Some years ago she was in a show on like TNT or something called The Alienist. It only ran for 2 seasons but it really good. Was set in NYC in the 1880s or 1890s. Was about a small group of educated friends who worked to catch serial killers. Each season was about 1 killer. So they only got to cover 2 killers before the show was canceled. It's based on some novels I think. There was a 3rd novel that never got adapted

Id say yesat least on a certain level. Yes, he made money, but I only ever hear people talk about The Sixth Sense, Unbreakable, and sometimes Split with reference to his truly great titles. Even Signs, which feels like it was more hype at the time than anything else, sits at a 6.8 on IMDB. Above average on RT and comparable to his others, but The Sixth Sense is really his only standout hit there. Even Unbreakable and Split dont come close to the reception that one got.

The Village (arguable, I didnt enjoy it personally and thought the twist was glaringly obvious)
Lady in the Water
Thr Last Airbender
The Happening
Devil (this one is my guilty pleasure - I enjoyed it)
After Earth
The Visit
Glass
Old
Knock at the Cabin

All of these received generally average to below average or even super below average ratings. His issue is that, following on the trails of Sixth Sense, he spent a significant portion of his career just building movies around twist endings rather than building a compelling narrative that eventually lead to a twist. The reception to many of these feelings is, IMO, a direct response to twist fatigue audiences probably felt whenever they saw his name attached to something.

I guess failed is technically the wrong word here since he has obviously made a ton of honey in his careerI just hope his daughter does something different beyond just building her movies around (mostly) predictable twist endings.

"Directed by M. Night's daughter" probably would have worked, I doubt anyone would have wondered who "M. Night" is.
