To be fair, wasn't the movie talking about dead baseball player ghosts coming? For people to take that example and apply it to other endeavors in life is a bit ridiculous.
That's pretty similar to how I felt about Doom3: People complained how "unrealistic" it was to not be able to duct tape the flashlight to the gun, but...For crap's sake, it's a game about a demon invasion from hell and one guy single-handedly holding them all off. Realism and believability were obviously never the point. :)
'Course, that game had other issues, but realism (or lack of) was never one of them.
But maybe I'm misremembering. Saw it a long time ago.
Never saw it myself, but that's what I'd heard it was about.
