"To certain members of the pop culture intelligentsia, 1987's The Princess Bride is like The Rocky Horror Picture Show but with pirates and kidnapped princesses instead of transvestite Transylvanians and thrown toast"
I adore the book (and quite like the film) but the book is lovely, lovely, lovely. I love it.
You fell victim to one of the classic blunders! The first is never get involved in a land war in Asia. The second, only slightly less well known, is this: never go up against a Sicilian when death is on the line!
"I'm not a witch, I'm your wife!"
"Hello, My name is Inigo Montoya. You killed my father. Prepare to die."
One of the all-time greats! I had to watch it again this weekend.

Inigo Montoya: You are wonderful.
Man in Black: Thank you; I've worked hard to become so.
Inigo Montoya: I admit it, you are better than I am.
Man in Black: Then why are you smiling?
Inigo Montoya: Because I know something you don't know.
Man in Black: And what is that?
Inigo Montoya: I... am not left-handed.
[Moves his sword to his right hand and gains an advantage]
Man in Black: You are amazing.
Inigo Montoya: I ought to be, after 20 years.
Man in Black: Oh, there's something I ought to tell you.
Inigo Montoya: Tell me.
Man in Black: I'm not left-handed either.
It is just the best movie
As you wish
