In part two of our discussion of Vacation we start by going over some really excellent audience feedback from both Twitter and Facebook, and reveal who the big winners were from our recasting in Part One. Andy goes into umbrage (not Umbridge) mode when discussing his most recent viewing of the movie, and the role of Aunt Edna. We talk about the fact that the tiny pocket computers with all the world’s knowledge on them would certainly change the story in a big way were it to be remade today. Kyle proposes an ‘Endless Vacation’ variation for a modern remake, and Jer wonders whether it needs to be a roadtrip at all.
Be sure to stick around after the music ends to get a taste of some random hilarity that usually (begrudgingly) gets cut from RM episodes.
