Whenever I think of the movie "Just Add Water" my mind jumps to the image of the cover of the poster for the movie "Holes". Both movie are about the struggles in a place where the lack of water has taken over their towns. They were both once beautiful and prosperous places but as we have seen, when disaster strikes it leaves a mark on the town. The ending to these two movies are enarly exactly the same, the towns have not seen rain for god knows how long and once it begins to rain, everyones lives are changed for the better and the criminals are taken away in handcuffs.
Also, not a concrete object but one thing that I cannot help but thinking about is the song "Run Rabbit Run" by Eminem. The song just talks about how much his life sucks yet he must prevail over everything around him that is stopping him. Ray does just the same, he prevails over his terrible life and makes change for himself.

Is Eminem making an allusion to John Updike's novel of the same name?
