YOURS, MINE, & OURS Remake - Another 'Cheaper By The Dozen'??

Meh.


"The Spectacle has, indeed, an emotional attraction of its own, but, of all the parts, it is the least artistic, and connected least with the art of poetry. For the power of Tragedy, we may be sure, is felt even apart from representation and actors. Besides, the production of spectacular effects depends more on the art of the stage machinist than on that of the poet."
--Aristotle

oh, but the Lucille Ball and Henry Fonda original is a classic! I think I'll skip the re-make... I LOVED the original!

Beave, I didn't see your post before I sent mine. That scene is one for the ages!

Doesn't this seem a bit dated now? Two families with 9 kids each? Does that strike anyone as unlikely? Anyone know if they try to explain the circumstances?

I was the youngest of 6 kids-- I loved both these movies as they p[roved to me that IT COULD BE WORSE!!!

It might be dated, but it's still wonderful...

Beave, I am on a mission to find it now! My sister and I used to watch that movie and dream of having a really big family (it was just the two of us). We loved the 'organization' of the household!

Plus, you can't go wrong with Lucille Ball and Henry Fonda!

Van Johnson was in it, and a VERY young Tim Mathieson (Woof!) but I missed those two.

"At the opening night party, they had clowns on stilts, jugglers, a chocolate fountain, popcorn, hot dogs. [My son] looked at me like I had been holding back. Like, 'This is what you do?' I had to tell him, 'No, no, darling. Opening nights don't usually look like this.' It's usually a dark bar with a bottle of vodka." ?Chitty Chitty Bang Bang's Jan Maxwell plus i proudly share the title of the shortest member over the age of 10 with wickedrentq!

I'm with you Addy......that whole sequence when they get Lucy drunk is just too good!

Ah! I was annoyed when they made a Cheaper by the Dozen remake but they had to touch Yours Mine and Ours? Come on, anything with Henry Fonda, Lucille Ball, Van Johnson, AND Tim Mathieson should not be touched!

I love the original movie. I want to get it on DVD, but haven't gotten around to it yet. I better get it soon, though, since after this movie comes out it'll be much harder to find.

Are a couple of the kids at the top of the picture black? I guess they're going to be changing the script to be able to fit in a few more Nickolodeon kid stars or something pathetic like that.
