How did the money get into her?<br />Also, the wives were robot-people, which never made any sense anyway. :(Laurahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02815945506358556322noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8474941883581221669.post-86133958408819686702012-04-29T14:55:41.652-07:002012-04-29T14:55:41.652-07:00After Revenge of the Stepford Wives, The Stepford ...After Revenge of the Stepford Wives, The Stepford Children, and The Stepford Husbands, I was pretty certain that returning to the idea yet again wasn't going to yield much. Even to the extent that those sequels did have some interesting ideas (and the question of what made the children compliant was an interesting open question about the original) they lacked impact.Jon Hannahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03348050177174208745noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8474941883581221669.post-45492647612491045962012-04-29T09:50:33.225-07:002012-04-29T09:50:33.225-07:00I remember the first time I saw the original film....I remember the first time I saw the original film. I was with my gf and it was clear that Joanna was walking into a trap. My gf talked to the TV: "Just leave the kids!

If you're g...How to ruin a movie 101: do this.<br /><br />If you're going to change the base of the story, and only make vague allusions to the -actual- story, then it's not a remake. It's just a shitty movie.<br /><br />I almost can't believe the remake you describe. But then again, terrible, unfaithful "remakes" are a dime a dozen.<br /><br />We have canon for a reason: to have a set of commonly accepted material, and to completely exclude and ignore something like this.<br /><br />I've actually never seen or read The Stepford Wives. Sounds cool, and I'll definitely check it out soon. I'll also stay miles away from the remake, thanks.<br /><br />I also think it's amusing that the captcha asks me to prove I'm not a robot.Rexxarhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11886893302927485990noreply@blogger.com
