ceiling fan changed direction on its own & running half power?

my ceiling fan recently began making noise, slowed to a stop, and started running backwards. I flipped the switch on the fan to make it change directions again so it’s still pushing air down. It’s only running at half speed now at best. I have a remote box installed in the fan… is it the box or the fan that needs replaced? And what would cause it to suddenly change direction.. a change in polarity.. if so how? Thanks!

turn it off now an don’t use again untill fixed. vibration can cause the wire nuts to loosen. bare wires could be touching. could be a fire hazard.

I want to host a Twilight DVD release party, any Ideas?

I don not want costumes please!
Ideas So Far:

i think thats a great idea, considering im a huge twilight fan. definitely do something with apples, or “forbidden fruit”. possibly play some baseball
get posters of all the characters, like the family, and james, laurent and victoria.
you can play kiss edward! my friends did that with the poster of his face…
its like pin the tail on the donkey, only you put lipstick on and kiss the poster after being spun and blindfonded and such.
and the person who comes the closest wins the poster
idk corny but its a good time.
