The Parent Trap/Fridge


 * Fridge Horror: Pictures torn in half, no mention of your other parent, meeting a look-a-like at camp, only to discover you've been lied to by EVERYONE. Imagine the therapy sessions (if the movies weren't Disney, that is).
 * This troper in particular couldn't manage to enjoy the movie because she doesn't find it sweet and tender at all, but horrofying. Seriously, what were those selfish parents thinking???
 * Fridge Logic: In the Lindsay Lohan version it is established that Sammy the dog is far more friendly to Hallie than he is to Annie. So when the parents couldn't tell them apart why didn't they just bring the dog in and see which girl he ran to?
 * Well, maybe to fix that Hallie would get Sammie friendly with Annie so he liked him when they get back?
 * From my limited experience with children, I've learned that when they're being difficult and you're on a deadline, you aren't the most rational person. I'm sure the dog was the last thing Hallie and Annie's parents were thinking about when they had the stress of trying to get one home, the other planning a wedding and them both having to deal with each other for the first time in years.
