Ask for someone to rank M.'s best movies Night ChyamalanAnd there is a great chance that the "signs" will be somewhere in the top five, maybe even to take the number one. It is understandable, really. Searching for Mel Gibson through corn fields and escaping his sadness is still a nail biting clock, with a mark being aaakin Phoenix that pulls out of the child's birthday party footage of a child's birthday party (What Shiamalan admitted to laughing during shooting). And yet, even with all those great moments, one thing that is most remembered "signs" is her last big discovery that also exposes her biggest plot hole.

During the film, the upheld Graham Hess (Gibson) awaits these space -based creatures to finally touch their homemade grass, which is covered with half a full glass of water thanks to his daughter Bo (Abigail Breslin). It's just by reviewing the last moments with his wife and remembering her last wishes that allows his brother Meryl (Phoenix, who was originally ready to play Mark Rufalo) Let's move away, breaking containers with water all over the house when it is discovered that it is toxic to other people's attackers.

It is one of the most significant twists of a shyamalan that does not include Bruce Willis, but the one that stands out more for most of the wrong reasons. Although it is commendable that the good respected and his family have the right defense to put aliens on the back foot, did the intruders not considered such a question when visiting a planet that is over 70% water?

Imagine taking the planet inhabited by insignificant, smaller creatures; To get an idea for local terrain would be a smart move, right? Then, why, in the case of a UFO creep and tin foil hats, are the aliens not a factor in the poisonous wet things that not only cover the planet, but often descends to dry land at repeated intervals?

It has been alluded to as the film is advancing that the secret of sending foreigners to packing lies in the water, especially when Chyamalan himself, how he joins Graham's wife, Ray Reddy, reveals that he plans to take a shelter by the lake. Being close to a body of water can do the trick, but why not revealed that aliens do not want to get wet? Were there any reports from areas that experienced rain that aliens were running away from the scene? If they were confident enough to break their birthday parties, they would surely tore around, say, the UK, for example, and as a result, probably did not survive the journey (they would not have a chance in Scotland, that is certain).

However, even with this glittering question, some fans designed their own theories why aliens could neglect this, but only barely.

As is the case with any of the conundrum based on films, walking online often solves as many problems as it creates. In the case of a black hole conspiracy in "signs", one theory assumes that water is dangerous not only for foreigners but also for humans. During the film, Bo is constantly looking for a fresh glass and declares that something is wrong with the water, leading to them to be arranged throughout the house. A Reddit fan pointed out that the reason why Bo (Abigail Breslin) continues to change glasses is because the water has actually been polluted and that although deadly for aliens, it only had a slight impact on humans.

A Redditor He added that the water used on the Hess farm could contain pesticides, so Bo always complained about it. Aliens attacking their home can also be because it was far from large water bodies, assuming they would be safe, just not to be the case.

Even with that explanation, the question of aliens facing rainfalls or cases when someone else from Earth discovered this weakness and announced it to the world before communication remains non -violent. Given this, perhaps the best option is really just to ignore this issue in another otherwise uncertain thriller.
