Summary: Won't someone please think of the bear?!

This movie is a treasure trove of originality and ingenuity:
Aliens: The Others
Teddy bear: Bear
Plot: Independence Day and Twilight are having a baby

Other notable stuff I learned from the movie:
- It's a SONY movie.
- Sony's Mobile Phones won't survive a planet wide EMP.

Henceforth I will deny I've ever seen this movie...

It annoys me that Sony has to feel like every item in their movies have to be under their brand name. Even in the animated films like Hotel Transylvania or Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs, you can find obvious Sony products. No other studio uses the same brand promotion for every movie.
