Welcome, discerning listeners, to our Season 2 Premiere!  :)  Thank you for stepping through the portal with us, not just for another episode but a whole new season.  We hope our next 50 episodes are even better than our first 50, and we're off to a great start.  This week, we are reviewing the timeless and beloved 1987 classic fantasy-romance fairy tale..."The Princess Bride."

We discuss trivia and behind the scenes information, including things about Andre the Giant's involvement in the movie.  We talk about favorite moments, which for some co-hosts were pretty much...everything...just, the whole movie.  We also discuss the witty & funny dialogue, the ad-libbing performed by Billy Crystal & Carol Kane in the Miracle Max sequence, and yes, even a few minor nitpicks (well, by one co-host anyway -- guess which one).  But, mostly, we just quote the movie...a lot.

Which co-hosts loved this movie?  Did anyone just like it or even...hate it?!?  Inconceivable!  If one or more co-hosts didn't totally love this movie, just how low does their rating go?  How many times have some of our co-hosts watched this movie?  Can any of our co-hosts quote practically the whole movie from memory (spoiler:  yes, they can)?

Prepare for adventure, swashbuckling, tests of intellect, romance, and giant rodent extermination.  Grab your storybook, sword, pirate mask, chocolate-covered miracle pills, holocaust cloak, and witty comebacks, as we prepare to engage...The Princess Bride.

What is your favorite quote from the movie?  Is it one we actually missed?  Let us know your favorite quotes, moments, or behind-the-scenes tidbits.  Contact us for those or any other reasons at the following...

Would you like us to give you another season of thoughtful discussion?  Do you want a nice balance of praise, criticism, and neutral analysis?  Do you want a variety of movie reviews, TV discussion topics, "Whatcha' Doin'?" episodes, and maybe the occasional book review or roleplaying game session?  ...As...you...wish.  ;)
