Welcome to part two of our discussion of the 1980’s action/adventure/romance/comedy (acvenmancedy) ‘Romancing the Stone’. We start out by going over some great listener casting suggestions, and reveal who the big winners were from our picks in part one. From there we tackle lots of different discussion points about the original, which had a wide range of opinions amongst our hosts. We talked adventure, sass, whether the plot should have had more or less detail about the peril in Colombia, a studio ending vs. an independent ending, and how awesomely weird the music was. Enjoy!
