I think the thingamajigger at the top of your screen is another dwarf. I dunno. The Princess Bride is:HEHEHEHEHEHE
another favorite part is when the stupid dimheaded mole-headed prince tries to take Wesley away and Wesley pretends to have lived in the Fire-Swamp for a long time!!! HEHEHEHEHE LOD

"Westly, what about the R.O.U.S's?" "Rodents of unusal size? I don't believe they exist..." as one jumps out of the nearby bushes. he he he luv that

It IS supposed to be funny! Wesley(i've always have thought Wellesley should be pronounced Wesley) is kinda mocking, kinda joking. I always thought that Wesley wuz kinda mean after he left to *says in deep voice*"make my fortune" or something like that
Prince Humperdink:To the death! Wesley: no! to the pain! Prince Humperdink, looking confused: I don't think I know that one. Wesley says his really long speach about what he'll do and then........ Inigo, as Welsey"falls":Help him! Buttercup(stupid name):whats wrong w/ wesley? I could go on forever!!! LOD

I did however like the costumes and the sword-fights and Inigo Montoya. I liked the part when the Man in Black outwits Fexix and Montoya, but I didn't like him when I found out it was Wesley because then he went all mushy.

P.B. and Willow are wonderful pieces of fluff. Personally I've seen each about twelve times and enjoyed each and every viewing. Sometimes you need a lite story with beautiful photography and lite dialogue while other times you need a brownie!

You've commited the second deadly error. The first is never start a land war in Asia, but the second is never bet against a Cicilian when death is on the line! Ha ha ha ha ha h-

Last night i actually started and finished it and i loved it. It wasnt the real book, it was the abridged version, but it still rocks. I love Inigo, and Westley. Mawige... The ending is.. unexpected after seeing the film.

Sorry, there was no S.Morgenstern, it was just a puedonym for William Goldman. He made it up so he could tell you things.(i.e. he wanted to tell you there were ??? pages about the princesses packing without actually writing them)

Read the book first, loved it, saw the movie and was very pleasantly surprised - wonderful adaptation!
Favorite line (that some people probably WON'T appreciate ) "I don't feel right about killing a girl." "God does it all the time. It doesn't bother Him; don't let it bother you."

I don't know if any one else noticed this, but on the back of the movie box (at least mine) they misspelt Westley and put Wesley. I found that quite annoying.
