Just like saying someone who thinks black people are loud in theaters is a biggot. Perhaps most of the black peiople he knows or have been exposed tyo ARE loud in theaters. Most white people I know are WAY to sensitive about the feelings of other races. But again, that is a stereotype ;)


Anyway. I thought the movie was decent, of course cusack's acting was great, and he went a long way to sell what i thought were some pretty mediocre scares. However, the tension and atmosphere was greta, the scares just didnt deliver on the promise the atmosphere made.
The point was that it was completely irrelevant.

It would be like me saying: I went to the theater and bought a ticket for a movie. The ticket-seller was white. Then I watched the movie, and I really liked it.

It was a pointless addition of a detail, that was all I was saying.
