Tsk tsk, editing your post while I replied:p
I dont see what you mean by story story being "more complete" in the remake. They both ended the same way, only the original had a little thing called continuity.
As for the scene with Jodie at the end, what kind of redeeming feature could you find in that? It was as much pointless eye candy as the babysitter was, albiet a different kind of eye candy. Once I again I bring up the subtlty of the original. It never came out ad showed the house as being alive, it was all a more human story. The Jodie scene was there simply to contradict that idea even further, and show us how powerful and alive the house was, blah blah blah. I much prefer the original especially for that concept of humanity versus evil, rather than a familly versus a house. They are completly different ideas, one leaves the audience with something to think about, and the other is simply there to make money, nothing more.
