Yay for me! I snagged the last copy of “Princess Bride” on DVD from work last night. Once again, yay for me!
–Tim
Thats inconceivable!
“Inconceivable!”
No, wait a minute. What I mean is “death first!”
No, that’s not it. How about “have fun storming the castle!”
I love Princess Bride. Go have fun, Tim.
Perhaps if I gave you my word as a Spaniard? No good. I’ve known too many Spaniards.
Who are you?
No one in particular.
I must know.
Get used to disappointment.
[shrug]
Ha ha, you fool! You fell for one of the classic blunders, the best well known of which is never get involved in a land war in Asia, but only slightly less well known is this! Never go in against a Cecilian when DEATH is on the line!
What I wouldn’t give for a holocaust cloak.
Will this do?
Where did you get that?
Mawwiage. Mawwiage is what bwings us togevvah. Today. Mawwiage. That bwessed awwaingement. That dweam wivin a dweam.
There is a shortage of perfect breasts in this world. 'T’would be a pity to damage yours.
What was that for?
Because you’ve always been so kind to me, and I’m going to kill myself once we reach the honeymoon sweet.
She kissed me! heh heh heh
Surrender!
You mean you wish to surrender to me? Very well, I accept.
Where did we leave that wheelbarrow the albino had?
Well, with the albino, I think.
Fezzick took great care reviving Inigo back to health.
As you wish.
I like that movie.
Best line ever:
“You’ve been mostly dead all day!”
I think the truly important line here is
“Death cannot stop true love. All it can do is delay it for awhile.”
And on that note: You wish to surrender to me? Very well, I accept.
Nonsense. You only say that because no-one ever has (survived the fireswamp)
Well I’m not saying I want to build a summer home here or anything.
The Rodent’s of Unusual Size? I don’t think they exi…ummmph!!!
Are there rocks ahead?
If there are we all be dead…
NO MORE RYHMES! I MEAN IT!
No more rhymes now, I mean it!
Anybody want a peanut?
Call the brute squad!
I’m on the brute squad.
You are the brute squad!
Haven’t seen that movie in forever…
Anybody want a peanut?
…stop it! I mean it!
Anybody want a peanut?
Surgoshan took all the good lines 
HUMPERDIIIIIIIIIINK…HUMPERDINK, HUMPERDINK, HUMPERDINK.
Shut up Witch…I’m no witch, I’m your wife!!!
…oh you mean this gate key!
To the Pain!!!
Allo…My name is Inigo Montoya. You killed my father. Prepare to die.
My favorite movie!!! Can you believe that’s Mandy Patankin (sp?)
“Life is pain, highness. Anyone who says differently is selling something.”
“Rodents of unusual size? I don’t think they exist.”
“You fell for one of the classic blunders! The most famous of which is never start a land war in Asia–but only slightly less famous is this: Never get involved with a Sicilian when death is on the line! A-HAHAHAHAHAHA! A HAHA HA–”
And so on.
Be aware that in about a year’s time, a Special Edition of ‘The Princess bride’ DVD will be released, which will include cool extras. Probably commentary from director Rob Reiner, and maybe from cast members or the writer William Goldman!
Though that’s just rumour so far. Likely rumour.
Inigo is my favourite character,
“Hello, my name is Inigo Montoya. You killed my father. Prepare to die”. is my favourite line. Nothing complicated but it is the passion that Inigo possesses that makes it so good.
But the whole movie is full of great scenes… like the brilliant fake out at the end…
Westley: Then you’re not married. You didn’t say it. You didn’t do it.
Wouldn’t you agree, your highness?
Humperdink: A technicality that will shortly be remedied…but first things
first… [He draws his sword] To the death!
Westley: [slowly sitting up] No! To the pain!
Humperdink: I don’t think I’m quite familiar with that phrase?
Westley: I’ll explain, and I’ll use small words so that you’ll be sure to
understand. You-wart-hog-faced-buffoon!
Humperdink: [insulted] That may be the first time in my life a man has dared
insult me.
Westley: It won’t be the last. To the pain means the first thing you lose will
be your your feet below the ankles, then your hands at your wrists.
Next, your nose.
Humperdink: Then my tongue, I suppose? I killed you too quickly the last
time, a mistake I don’t mean to duplicate tonight.
Westley: I wasn’t finished! The next thing you lose will be your left eye
followed by your right!
Humperdink: And then my ears…I understand! Let’s get on with it!
Westley: Wrong! Your ears you keep, and I’ll tell you why; so that every
shriek of every child at seeing your hideousness is yours to cherish.
Every babe that weeps at your approach, every woman that cries out,
‘dear god what is that thing!’ will echo in your perfect ears. That is
what to the pain means. It means I leave you in anguish, wallowing in
freakish misery forever.
Humperdink: I think your bluffing.
Westley: It’s possible, pig. I might be bluffing. It’s conceivable you
miserable vomitous mass, I’m only lying here because I lack the strength
to stand. Then again, perhaps I have the strength to stand after all.
[Slowly, Westley stands, his sword pointed at Humperdinck’s chest]
Drop… your… sword.
[Humperdinck throws his sword to the ground]
why you wearing a mask? were you burned by acid?
no, it’s just that they’re terribly comfortable. I think everybody will be wearing them in the future.
Who are you?.. I must know
Get used to disappointment
and a personal fave… I’m not left-handed either!
Uh, Surgo old buddy, it is Sicilians who are so good at dealing death.
Cecilians are more oriented to knowledge.
Never go in against a Cecilian when IGNORANCE is on the line!
“He’s only… mostly dead.”
“I’ve just sucked one year of your life away. Tell me… how do you feel?”
“[moaning]”
“Interesting.”
“That’s the Miracle Pill?”
“The chocolate coating helps it go down easier.”
“I’ll tear you both apart, I’ll take you both together!.. why won’t my arms move?”
“Are you the Miracle Max, that works for the king?”
“The king’s stinkin’ son fired me… and thank you so much for reminding me of that. While you’re at it, why don’t you give me a paper cut and rub it in lemon juice? We’re closed!”
“Well… I’m carrying three people… he’s got only himself.”
“That’s no excuse, I’ll just have to get myself a new giant!”
They don’t make movies like this anymore.
Twue Wuv.
lol @ tomndeb re: Cecilians
I’m just wondering how long it will be before we have the entire script in this thread (slightly disjointed of course).
Not long at this rate…
(I actually own a copy of the script btw)
