Brazil vs Ghana, Spain vs France and The Stepford Wives

Went to DongHao's house yesterday night. Along the way, dogs are littered across the road, barking at me. Some threatened to bite me, barking in a more intense way compared to the others. Had to rely on my bag (quite heavy, filled with my trusty Robbins) to protect me from the menance...

Reached the house, watched some football matches. It turns out to be a boring match (due to the fact that Spain lost) but some channel saved the day. The Stepford Wives they're showing. I was expecting the ending to be the same as the newer modern version. However it's more sinister... A peaceful town hiding its dark secrets. Kinda pity the mother, is it Joanne? What husband will want a robot to serve him instead of his faithful wife? And sending her to her death just doesn't make sense. This applies to the other husbands and their spouses too... Maybe the movie is about the male dream---"Total Dominance"!
