Exploding or malfunctioning women

[billmarksman]

I've always been interested in the build up to the malfunction or explosion such as a twitch in the eye, a spark, sporadic movements, change in speech. You know, small signs that something is about to happen. Anyway, I was just curious if others had similar examples besides these.

1. Fembots in Austin Powers 1/Vanessa in Austin Powers 2/ Brittney in the 3rd

2. Episode of Buffy where a man designs a robot girlfriend that battles Buffy until it malfunctions/powers down.

3. "Cherry 2000", A movie where you could have a robot wife for all your sexual desires. The main character comes home to his "wife" in the kitchen and things start to get heated. The dishwasher (for some reason) overflows with foamy water while he and his wife are rolling around on the floor, she short circuits and stops moving.

4. Sims 2: A mod is available where you can skin the robots to look just like humans that wear clothing. Making them get in the hot tub or leaving them out in the rain causes them to malfunction and run about crazily until they blow a fuse and power down.

5. Blade Runner/ Screamers (I guess, not the best examples but noteworthy)

Any form of media is most welcomed.

The movie that you couldn't remember the name of is 'Cherry 2000':

It's a fun movie, and don't worry folks, the robot isn't "dead". They fix her/it up later on, though she's still a dolt.

Maybe you would be interested in The Stepford Wives

Christopher Walken is enough reason to watch Stepford Wives. >.>

Off topic.

I do find malfunctioning women amusing though.

Haven't seen the newer version of Stepford wives, and yeah "Cherry 2000", thanks for the link.

I'll keep editing the list when more info is presented.

Hmmm, interesting find but I don't see much exploding or malfunctioning.

Some Exploding ones for you:

James Bond, Never Say Never: Bond shoots the girl with the pen and she explodes leaving only a pile of clothes.

The old For Brunettes Only commercials: There is one on YouTube, but not the one I remember of the dumpy woman clutching the bottle and looking around all nervous before entering the phone booth and exploding into a babe. So more of a transfomation but the woman knew she was going to explode into a babe and looked nervous first.

From 1998-2000: Saw while living in Detroit and was a commercial for some kind of fat free burrito. A man and his wife are in the kitchen eating their low fat burritos and the announcer is announcing how great they taste and low fat too. The woman looks nervous and straight into the camera puts down the burrito and explodes. The husband shrugs and takes her burrito off her plate and adds it to his own. The camera shows the wifes chair and it is just a pile of dust and her jewlery.

Would love to see the last 2 again, but have not been able to find either one.
