The Crying Game, Usual Suspects, The Sixth Sense (and that was the ONLY one of Shyamalan's plots that was even remotely unpredictable IMO), and The Others (which, to be fair, was similar to The Sixth Sense)....
You would consider any of those recent? The most recent was The Others, and that was 8 years ago.
I thought the same thing about Star Trek. It didnt take that long on netflix.
Err...Star Trek was released in theaters on May 8, and on DVD on November 12. That's six months.
District 9?
In theaters August 14, on DVD December 29. That's 4 1/2 months.
