Whenever I see Morgan Freeman in a movie I think "there's Morgan Freeman." He immediately takes me out of the movie. Maybe that's what Trag feels like when he sees Tom Cruise.

I have a visceral reaction to advertising and promotion. There's just something about salesmanship that grates on me on a very base level and I react very negatively towards it. I want those people to suffer and I want their enterprises to fail.
