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.

I think I agree with this. I kinda wish they just left it at the hospital with him talking to the little girl

yeah because you don't know if the wife is telling the truth or not, but you know there's not really a chance he got out.. but it's one of those, "leave it up to the audience" kind of things instead of "he probably gets rescued and all live traumatically ever after"

but really i think they were going for a "how about that whistle" thing, the object that got her lost and him found, and bringing it all back around.. but it's not really very clever if you think about it

But if you only think about it a tiny little bit, it's actually very clever.

I don’t think I would want to watch the hills have eyes with my parents, but then again I wouldn’t want to watch anything with my parents.
