Product: Anne of Green Gables: The Continuing Story
Rating: 1.0
This is what happens when you mess with a good thing...
Why? Why? WHY? Even bother? The second part of the series veered from the book but still managed to stay within the spirit of the Anne stories. This one is a travesty...not only does the story line make no sense with who the characters are, it TOTALLY SUCKS! Even the actors seem to know it--Anne and Gil lack the connection they had in the earlier versions. Sullivan Films lost its way on this one. Was it an attempt at "modernizing"? Why try to modernize what is timeless? Ironically, it turned out extremely dated. There is a reason why true Anne of Green Gables fans find this version offensive. It leaves you pissed, angry and cheated--do they think the viewers are stupid?In order to make amends, Sullivan Films needs to make A TRUE continuation, one where Anne and Gil are together as they are meant to be, their House of Dreams does exist, Rilla, Jem and Walter grow up with their friends and maybe then we might consider letting the boys go off to war and let Rilla try to raise an orphan baby. Until then, Sullivan Films can go suck a lemon! How dare they mess with Anne!
