Twist is the daughter is the real killer dad just supports it

[bharanysilanrave]

What if the twist is "Josh has the butcher captive in his basement & doesn't want the police to take him in because he wants revenge"?

[sidrip]

The most unusual part of the conversation with the merch salesperson is, how does the merch salesperson know what the police plan is. They would never tell a merch sales person the plan.

[RACALDERONR]

Saying the name of the person you are talking to (usually at each sentence you say and/or at end preferably) helps put them at ease and makes them feel like you are connecting and engaged.

Don't gotta be after every but an example lol

[unropednope]

Honestly, a grown up cole communicating with a victims ghost and consulting with law enforcement would be great

[fireproofart]

An old SALESMAN TECHNIQUE, of repeating your "prospect" name, makes you feel important and like a friend and secretly people like to hear their own name being called out. But its a way to get someone to trust you fast.

[mmmuck]

i really hope Josh gets major awards one day. he's a legit great actor yet always seems to fly under the radar.

[LeonardoKlotz]

Life is like watching the newest M. Night Shyamalan movie

You never know what you're gonna get

Plot twist is there's other serial killer in the stadium... It's Jamie!

[ramblingmovienonsense]

What if, Josh Hartnett’s character is a killer who goes after supervillains but instead of bringing them to justice he just simply murders them. It’s definitely like Dexter, but making it fit within the Unbreakable universe would be interesting

[TheOneTrueJack]

Two things:

1. Enormous respect for Shyamalan for all the reasons mentioned and I completely agree that the "twist" in the trailer is not going to be the only one. His grocery lists have twists.

2. Signs plotting does make sense if the creatures are demons and not aliens (look it up).

[QuintonLeo]

Trap is the most excited for a Shyamalan film since Glass. Unbreakable was a movie I watched a lot as a young teen and is never talked about enough. I agree with you that I think this will connect with The Sixth Sense.

[jackiegillies]

I have always been a huge Hartnett fan, thrilled he's back in the forefront! I just watched Glaas again, and I shut it off, so I can imagine the ending I want!

[JodoKast]

The trailer makes it look like the police set a trap but it’s really JH’s character who setting the real trap!

[tajmahaltv]

When watching trailers like this, you can expect a few things:

-That this particular director will give you something as to how the the story and narrative is going to play out which means there’s more than meets the eye.

-That the director will most likely do a cameo in it like he did in some of his recent movie projects he had done or has his family in it somehow.

-There’s a psychological or emotional aspect and twist to the movie so it’s not just an ordinary movie.

-The twist is going to deal with the title and how it’s often taken out of context so it brings in the audience to think outside the box. Like in this case I’m getting that maybe the main character is actually a schizophrenic or super paranoid so his inner thoughts are getting the best of him or maybe he is dealing with a loss and all of this is just figments of his imagination or a “trap” to gain control of his personalities. Just saying.

Overall a great movie idea and I can’t wait to see what he has in store for us.

FUN FACT - Trap is founded in real-life sting operations. It's interesting research. I watched a video where Shyamalan admitted to this. It's brilliant. The ENTIRE concert was a sting operation

[redswastedtalents]

Twins. The twist is gonna be Josh Hartnett is playing twins.

[blackwings]

Maybe the twist is he’s not trapped in there with them. THEY’RE TRAPPED IN THERE WITH HIM!

[RefujayMedia]

Anyone else notice the fact that not only is JH wearing the earpiece but he has an ID badge in the shot at 9:59
