Why would anyone have a favorite line from The Princess Bride?

[ThaSaltCracka]

It is inconceivable to me that someone would dislike this movie, its pretty damn funny.

my favorite line "I will use my left hand, otherwise it will be over to soon" or something like that.

[fnord_too]

Indigo "I must know"
TMIB "Get used to dissapointment"
Indigo (sort of shruggging) "Ok"

[destro]

You fell victim to one of the classic blunders. The most famous is "Never get involved in a land war in Asia." But only slightly less well known is this: "Never go in against a Sicilian when death is on the line."

[PoBoy321]

Wesley: You know, there's a shortage of perfect breasts in this world, and it would be a pity to damage yours.


Inigo Montoya: Hello, my name is Inigo Montoya. You killed my father: prepare to die. Now, offer me money.
[slices Count Rugen's cheek]
Count Rugen: Yes.
Inigo Montoya: Power too. Promise me that.
[slices Count Rugen's other cheek]
Count Rugen: All that I have and more. Please...
Inigo Montoya: Offer me everything I ask for.
Count Rugen: Any thing you want.
Inigo Montoya: I want my father back, you son of bitch.

Beat you! /images/graemlins/smile.gif

I'd like to change my vote. Somehow I forgot that line (I haven't seen the movie nor read the book in many years, but that is still an unforgivable oversight on my part.)

[PoBoy321]

Lol, I know, but there are so many good quotes from that movie that I found a few more to put up lol

[Danenania]

"Have fun storming the castle!"

[Asufiji2004]

"Maaridge...Maaridge is what brings us tugeva today, Maardige that bwessid aarangement. Tha dweam, wiffin a dweam"

One of the best movies ever made.

One of the differences from the book. In the book, it's something like:

(indigo is peircing the count's chest)

Indigo: "That was just to the left of your heart. That one was just above. Do you know what I am doing?"

Count: "You are cutting out my heart."

Indigo: "You cut mine out 20 years ago."

[The Dude]

"Cut it out, I mean it!"
"Anybody want a peanut?"

[elwoodblues]

Vizzini: No more rhymes now, I mean it.
Fezzik: Anybody want a peanut?


---------------------


Vizzini: HE DIDN'T FALL? INCONCEIVABLE.
Inigo Montoya: You keep using that word. I do not think it means what you think it means.

[wayabvpar]

"You keep using that word. I do not think it means what you think it means."

[tolbiny]

The whole scene with max the miricle worker is hilareous.

Max lifts Wesley's arm and it falls to the table with an audible thud
Max "I've seen worse".


Max "Mostly dead is still slightly alive. Now with all dead there is only one thing you can do"
Inigo "What's that?"
Max "Go through his pockets looking for loose change."

[ThaSaltCracka]

I have seen this movie once, I think. I am going to have to watch it again, as it is pretty damn funny. A lot of cameos too.

[tolbiny]

Dude its also a great date movie early in a relationship. Here's how to go about it properly.
Around the 4th or 5th date you usually try to get "video" night at your place so you have the home field advantage, and can attempt to fast forward the physical side if nessecary right? Set up this video night, and have a regular movie ready, something from blockbuster or whatever. When she comes over have the Princess Bride sitting out in plain sight somewhere. 90% of girls love this movie, and most of them will say so- and how they haven't seen it in sooooooo long. You casually ask if she wants to watch it instead. Sow you are a sweetheart- cause you like the same movie, and are attending to what she wants. But there are other benefits- she will know the movie so well that she won't really care if she misses part of it to make out and fool around. This is always a tricky situation when watching a movie neither of you have seen.

Finally- be carefull of the girl who recites ALL the lines. A couple is fine, but its a great early warning signal to get away if she recites the whole movie.

[Drac]

Something along the lines of

"The dwead piwate Woberts has come for your sooooulllls!"

Outside the castle in the holocost cloak. I love to spew that line when watching hockey and Gary Roberts lays a big hit on somebody.

[cnfuzzd]

i find that i can generally recite most of the movie. Does this mean i have to stop fooling around with myself?

Heh. Another one of my favs.

[tolbiny]

Youcan still fool around with yourself, but be carefull. I think you are definately the type to cheat with your left hand every once in a while.

[ThaSaltCracka]

all you guys posting quotes, keep going, I am enjoying this thread.

[cnfuzzd]

but i have to use both hands, you mean you guys dont?


btw, you may consider being a softball pitcher, cause you threw that one PERFECTLY!!!

The Princess Bride is a good example of a comedy that is not funny. Dumb forced humor.

[theBruiser500]

Also, SaltCracker, your taste in movies is seriously messed up.

[onegymrat]

Inconceivable!

[tolbiny]

Actually i think my favorite part is right at the beggining of the movie when Fred savage asks his grandfather if the book has any sports in it. And the grandfather replies with this list
"Fencing, fighting, kidnapping, monsters, giants, revenge, true love" and he totally slips that true love thing right by fred.

Also i love that Fred savage is playing RBI baseball when his grandfather walks in.

Have you ever heard of Plato, Aristotle, Socrates?

Yes.

Morons.


Sometimes people like dumb forced humor. The movie doesn't take itself too seriously. It tried to do something, and did it well. Sometimes it seems like you go in with preconceptions as to what a film should be, and then when that isn't matched you hate it. Let it do what it's trying to do, and you'll be a lot more satisfied with a lot more movies. It's be pretty ignorant of me to say I hate rap because it's a very poor imitation of Mozart.

The older you get, the fewer things you'll think are stupid. Remeber that a lot of people here were exactly you when we were your age. They just didn't have online poker back then.

"Life is pain, highness. Anyone who tells you differently is selling something."

An amusing movie line, and a basic human truth, all in one!

[Men the Master]

I think the funniest lines were made by Wesley during the scene when he bluffed Humperdink that he wasn't really paralyzed. It started out with Buttercup kissing him on the bed and him having to tell her "Gently." Then she pulls him closer to kiss him more and he screams "Gently!!!"

Then he goes on to tell Humperdink how he was going to cut off his eyes, mouth, and the rest of his body but not the ears so that he can hear what people would say about this "thing".

Anyway, the scene ends when Humperdink sits on the chair and gets tied down. Then he finds out that he got bluffed. Wesley's speech that preceded this had a lot of very funny lines in it. I wish I had the book so that I could quote it in its entirety.

[daryn]

yeah, that has always been my favorite part. it's like he's speaking so eloquently but then just throws in a random insult at the end like "warthog-faced buffoon" hahaha.

[blendedsuit]

Miracle Max: You got any money?
Inigo Montoya: Sixty-five.
Miracle Max: I've never worked for so little. Except once, and that was a very noble cause.
Inigo Montoya: This is noble, sir. His wife is... crippled. His children are on the brink of starvation.
Miracle Max: you are a rotten liar.
Inigo Montoya: I need him to help avenge my father, murdered twenty years ago.
Miracle Max: Your first story was better.
