This week the girls take aim at... Remade Movies
Amy introduced this week's topic by running through a brief history of remade music and movies. Amy then discussed some fun facts about the most remade movies and some epic flops of remade movies.

For something different and because she had to leave midway through recording the episode we let Sarah go first this week.

Sarah chose a couple of songs that she preferred the remake of instead of the originals. Sarah also declared her love for the movie Titanic made in 1997 which is far better than the original or any of the remakes of this movie (there are many). Face it, you cannot beat Dicaprio.

Amy jumped back in at this point in the show to discuss a movie that she believed was better than the original. Amy's pick was the Stepford wives. The original was made in 1975 then remade in 2004. Amy like the remake better because she thought the equality between the genders discussion was better made in the remake.
Bianca finished us off by discussing the movie Freaky Friday and two of its remakes. The original film was made in 1976 and stars then child star Jodie Foster. The first remake Bianca discusses is the remake made in 1995 starring Shelly Long and Gabby Hoffman. The final remake Bianca discusses is the 2003 version starring Lindsay Lohan and Jamie Lee Curtis. In Bianca's opinion, both remakes are better than the original.

Amy went fuzzy tail deep this week and found not only were the last words intriguing and hilarious BUT these people's lives were also very interesting.
Sarah brought the episode to a close with hilarity and this time not because she dictated either!
