Since some people are disregarding the post about this below...who keeps re-adding the Sales Genie commercials? It doesn\\\'t say anything but \\\"They\\\'re offensive to Indian and Chinese people and those losing their jobs due to outsourcing!\\\" There is a rule saying that \\\'\\\'\\\'\\\'\\\'being offensive simply isn\\\'t enough\\\'\\\'\\\'\\\'\\\', and yet it keeps coming back no matter how many times I remove it. Worse, the entry doesn\\\'t explain why they are bad even when disregarding the UnfortunateImplications, which it has to say, and it always comes back \\\'\\\'with no changes whatsoever\\\'\\\'! I was told that putting an edit reason in a place like this was {{Natter}}, but if this doesn\\\'t stop, I may have no option but to do it. I would be fine with putting this back, but it complains about the offensiveness and \\\'\\\'nothing else\\\'\\\', so if they qualify, then add to the entry or don\\\'t put it up at all!

Sorry for the AuthorTract, but I felt that it should be said.

EDIT: Removed [[RunningGag yet again]].

The one and only thing I wish about the now-standard (as noted above) bad guy victory in horror films is that its makers wouldn\\\'t pat themselves on the back for being \\\'innovative\\\' and \\\'breaking the mold\\\'. Bad guys have been winning in horror since the late 60\\\'s - its now about as innovative as showing a woman punching out a man. And if the villain is any sort of body swapper - forget it, game over. I think Peter Jackson\\\'s TheFrighteners is the one and only such work where the flesh-jumpers are actually sent away forever.
