| 5 | * Why did Sister Honey get beat so easily? She's used to the men on the island not fighting back. She let him hit her so they could spot the sacrifice. |
| 6 | * The reason this film feels too much like a comedy is because that's the only experience Neil Labute has when it comes to directing movies, since comedies are the only type of movies he's ever directed. |
| 7 | * The trap that the women of Summersisle, a place where their main product is bees and honey, use in order to lure men in to eventually be sacrificed by means of the Wicker Man by having them impregnate a woman and later lure him in presumably by means of "threatening" their future daughter? It's a HoneyTrap. |
| 8 | * Some of the women cultists seen in the remake are seen to be wearing what looks like bright red hoods with woven circles over the front. This does serve as a very good creepy visual. But hoods like that were actually used in the past. By beekeepers! |

| 11 | * Unlike the 1973 original, where it was revealed that Lord Summerisle's plan was born out of desperation at not knowing how to handle the crops failing for the first time since people settled on the island, Sister Summersisle reveals that they've had many bad harvests in the past, and that what happens to Edward has happened many times before, always resulting in a much better harvest the next year. One can only imagine how many men needlessly got roasted alive, just because Summersisle had a bum honey crop one year, and the islanders had evidently never heard of the FalseCause fallacy. |
