won't let it stop me from continuing on, but what's the point? I really don't get it.

Glad you posted. I don't get it either. I liked the portrail of the wife as being a normal, easily spooked person out of a 50's sitcom who was thrown into a james bond world. Call me stupid, but the time when she was trying to dance like a striper and fell down was funny. I thought the whole idea was that this was part comedy about this. I don't hear anyone screaming when arnold trips, or flexes.

In that sence I don't agree with the statment about "all women are good for is..." but I can see how the portrial of a "weak" woman could be interpreted as that, and I LIKED the portraial. Just as I liked it in an analogous movie with the sex roles reversed. This is why there was a little :-) on the end of this. Berzerk.
