When the brute squad search and clear the village they come across an inebriated Inigo. The solldier challanges Inigo with the phrase "Ho there" to which Inigo replies , "Ho there yourself" or Joder , spanish for F-you or go F-yourself. Since you have a list an all.
@Playfulpanthress You're right about Buttercup and the water, but Íñigo's name is Spanish (for "Fiery") and the "tilda" above the "n" makes it an "enya" and gives it a "ny" pronunciation. He's saying it just the way Mandy Patinkin says it in the film, just as "canyon" is spelled "cañon" in Spanish. I always say other movie companies (writers, producers, directors _et al)_ should study this film to see how action comedies should be made. In short, I love it. Stay safe.
nono the reason the boat "jumped" to her is because the grandfather paused reading, then accidentally reread parts, then skipped ahead slightly. the entire thing is based inside the narrative of a book, after all.
It doesn't really matter bcos all the events we see are what the boy is picturing in his head as his grandfather reads to him. Continuity has no place in that context
@@susie9893Is it weird I never put together that we were seeing inside the grandson’s imagination? I just thought we were seeing the contents of the book, but your comment made me realize that’s probably true; after all, when the grandfather starts reading the book again, and the grandson says he read that part already, it is the exact same part! Thanks for making this comment; I learned something new 😊
Reading the book fills in Fezzik's backstory (incredibly well, and everyone else's backstories), how Inigo fares at the end, and more. It makes the movie even better!
@@kchandler6094 that's funny. I thought the movie was much better, that much of the book was unnecessary. But to each their own, & nearly everyone has to like at least one or the other, right? It's very, very rare that I prefer a movie to the book that spawned it.
Vizzini did carry a bag up the cliffs which he clearly drops from his left shoulder at the 16-minute mark to cut the rope. Vizzini has the bag over his left shoulder once again when he says. " He didn't fall? Inconceivable." The same bag is seen resting at his feet in your very video from 5:41 - 5:57. "You fell victim to one of the classic blunders..."
Or some scientist demanding that the Chronicles of Narnia be banned for portraying talking beavers as carnivores, serving cooked fish to the kids, because REAL beavers, although obviously very talkative and living in well furnished lodges, DO NOT eat fish, cooked or not......
And not just a work of fiction, but a work of fantasy! In whose reality does fantasy need to be entirely realistic? Kinda defeats the purpose of the genre, right?
I had always assumed the same, that not only had Indigo survived, but became the next Dread Pirate Roberts, as Wesley suggested. However, the book ending, is fairly close to the same, except that it does have 2 ending. The author placed, "But here's what really happened..." and during that slightly more comical version, Indigo does survive, "until his wounds open up again..." This is not a direct quote and it has been several years since I have read the book, but even then, he doesn't die in that version, either. The Princess Bride is my all time favorite movie and this list is not really a list at all...it seemed too much for them...
Exactly. Not just that it’s fiction but that the ENTIRE motherf****** motif is of a grandfather lovingly reading a story, with breaks, asides, occasional clarifications, et al. to his grandson. I mourn for Looper that they apparently have neither read nor been read to enough to understand how this kind of storytelling works.
If you remember, Queen Penelope waited for 20 years for Odysseus to come home and she hadn't remarried until she was forced into it by her suitors. So, Westley expecting/hoping for Buttercup to keep waiting for him isn't THAT big of an issue. If you have a strong enough love connection, your partner could wait for you as long as it took
On top of that she also demanded her suitors perform an exceptional, if not impossible, feat of skill with the axe handles so even when backed into a corner she was still like "nah, bro."
What I keep coming back to is the fact that it is heavily implied that Buttercup had no choice. It says that "the law of the land gave Prince Humperdinck the ability to choose his bride". It never ever says that she had to agree to it. In fact, I always saw it as he chose her and that was that. She had no choice
Hoping, yes; expecting, no. Much as I love this movie and the book, Westley was absolutely venomous toward Buttercup for not living up to his expectations. Viewed realistically (and not as the genius satire that it is), his attitude doesn't bode well for their future together.
Are you all Forgetting ..the dred pirate Robert's never leaves survivers and it was none that the vessel he was on was attacked by said pirate. She died that day.
As a person who uses ropes for a living being a tree removal specialist. You can feel any tug on ropes. It's not just flexible. But does carry motion so if something is happening at the end of a hundred foot rope you can feel it at other end especially when under a load most of my ropes are loaded between 2 to 4 ton for lead or climbing but bull ropes or load ropes are almost 30,000 lbs. You feel everything that happens on the rope.
Using that logic then, Westley would’ve felt the rope getting cut (which took a little bit) and gripped the side of the mountain before the rope fell, which makes sense. As to why he had rocks in his shoes, he could’ve gotten them from climbing up the last bit with Inigo pulling him up; any loose rocks could’ve ended up in his boots 😊
Yup. And we don't even have to use ropes for a living to know this! The maker of this video not only got dialogue out of sequence and completely missed the details that it claims weren't there, but has very little understanding of how ropes work. Apparently they never made a "telephone" out of two cans and a piece of string as a kid. What a dull, unimaginative childhood they must have had. That's probably why they wanted to nitpick the greatest fantasy movie of all time. 😢
Actually it should be titled "Things Looper Was Paying Too Little Attention to in This Great Movie to Understand" The errors in this video indicate the author wasn't paying attention at all.
Why are you over analyzing this magical fiary tale? 🤔🤨 Just accept the fact this was a timeless fairy tale with all the elements of a classic. Adventues. Magic. Humor. Romance. Heroes. Villains. Monsters. What more could you expect from this rare gem? Most of all - Love will prevail. ❤
3:32 I thought the relationship between Inigo and Wesley was just excellent. They were pals instantly when they met. However, their friendship was simply very bad for their business. So, if they had to kill each other, they should do it in a chivalrous duel. Nothing tops that. 😉⚔ 1
Having done "man overboard" drills and other exercises to pick-up dropped cargo, one maneuvers the vessel to a position that the wind blows the ship/boat toward the person/object to be picked-up. One could include more details about maneuvering the ship, but why? It's the sort of technical accuracy that doesn't fit. As Harrison Ford said to Mark Hamill about a minor continuity issue, "It's not that kind of movie, kid."
My god, man, did you have a rough childhood? Did you even see this movie as a child? You have completely taken the enjoyment out of this movie. You've sucked the life out of it just as Westley's life was sucked out of him. Why? It is a fairytale movie. It's supposed to be a mess. It's a Fairytale!
Count Rugen, who had 11 of what normally numbers 10, was played by Christopher Guest. A few years earlier he had played a character who famously showed off that he had 11 of what normally numbers 10.
So, two points of connection to Spinal Tap. One visible before anything even gets started, and one in the plot of the movie. Well done, Misters Reiner & Guest.
"Adult" is such a loaded term. Please change the title to "Adult with brain damage" or "Adult with learning disability ". Both of these would help qualify the title and give the viewership a better idea of what is about to unfold.
The author of this channel must be fun at parties. Also, what you call plot holes are actually Rob Reiner's brand of slapstick comedy blended with subtle humor.
I can't believe they Karened this AND were so embarrassingly incorrect 🤣 Things we missed as kids? Nope. Imaginary things you (Looper) think we "missed" because YOU were not paying any attention to detail. 🙄
Inigo had that leather vest, probably a layer or two of linen. Rugen didn’t seem to get a very strong throw with that dagger. I think it cut him, but it wasn’t too deep. Mostly knocked the wind out of him. Plus, we know Miracle Max is within a few hour’s ride of the castle. Indigo isn’t dying here, I don’t think.
Also, Inigo has been training for this moment for a ton of his life-from studying to practicing to adventuring. All while Rugen has been living the high life being an evil aide(?) to the Prince and giving orders. Of the two, Inigo has probably more of a hearty bodily defense against harm than Rugen.
And yet, with all that time, they still didn't pay any attention to the movie, and so they are completely wrong on most of this. If you read the comments, much of it is debunked.
Boots full of rocks -> "We may never know". Those are called jokes. The guy climbed a rocky cliff. His boots are full of rocks like they would of sand. It doesn't make sense, it's non-sensical humor, and it's funny. That's what an adult might notice when they forget about humor.
The book is wrapped as a birthday gift. He even mentions birthday boy. As for the albino, you missed where they mentioned leaving the wheelbarrow over the albino. So possibly indicating that he did die.
Don't watch this video. Even when I was a teenager watching this I recognized that you don't question movie fantasy, you enjoy the ride. This isn't anything a child wouldn't notice, I noted all of that just fine, I just didn't, and don't, care to concern myself with minor plot holes while watching a fantasy movie filled with mystical magic and meanings. Not to mention it being the greatest love story ever told... hopefully tomorrow, I'll be able to watch it again. As I wish.
I always just assume the "land war in Asia" line goes over the heads of most kids watching it, especially those born well after this movie's initial release.
It certainly went over my head as a child, I didn't get it till I was a late teen (not being American, and Vietnam not being anywhere near my generation - I eventually realised thru watching reruns of MASH 😂). But I think that just proves how multi generational this movie is
I'm going to go ahead and say that there are so many dislikes already because the title is "Only Adults Notice" so it makes you think that you're going to show us some dirty scenes that we might just not have realized when we were kids. But that isn't the video, you are just pointing out inconsistencies and little plot holes. So yeah dislikes are because of the misleading title. not one of them, js.
No. The dislikes are because the video is actually wrong in most of its criticisms...because whoever made this video wasn't paying attention to detail at all. In fact, they may end up dying embarrassed when their time comes 🤣
You will never know how much I've loved your performances.... Yentil, Criminal Minds, but the most of all.... my childhood had 3 copies (taped from cable and 2 because we lent one to a licensed copy to a family friend, which sent back over a year later). I fell in love with you in The Princess Bride and Indigo Montoya, I love your acting. Thank you. I've lost both parents and that movie..... you have no idea. I'm the "movie buff completely. I remember everything I watch. I'm approached by family to link acts. Its not the 6 degrees of Kevin Bacon for me. I love you and you Sir are a class act.
Of course Inigo survived. They just humiliated Prince Humpderdink. Miracle Max will whip up another chocolate-covered pill and Inigo will be back to swordfighting in no time.
Any discrepancy in this movie can be explained by the fact that we're not watching a portrayal of the story, but the grandson's imagination on what the grandfather is reading to him
Climbing the rope was done to set up tension for the sword fight. Also, presumably it could have served as a shortcut or a way to throw potential followers off their track by not taking the conventional route. Depending on how deep the thrown knife wound was Inigo could have survived it. plus inigo skewered the count so it was hardly a superficial wound by comparison to his own.
Umm, did you not notice the backpack/bag next to Vizzini during the "Battle of Wits"?!? That was where he got the wine, cheese, giblets and tablecloth. 😉
The movie is amazing. This video is rubbish. Have a read through the comments... Most of what this video claims is incorrect. The maker of the video just was not paying enough attention to detail 😂
As an adult, I did wonder what this video had in store. Turns out it was 'mostly' continuity or 'where did that come from?' and a little litterally-ism. There's nothing wrong with a bit of Fantasy to take you away from common old day life. And there's nothing worse than a kid asking you "Why?" "What?" "Where?" Adults accept this movie for what it is. A fantastical romp. Kids question. And in answer to the questions of Inigo and Fezzik's past and future/future and past.. you can all read about that in the sequel, "Buttercup's Baby".
I gave up watching after 5 minutes of trying to take the joy out of a great movie. Must be a lot of fun at a party, next you can explain all Penn and Teller tricks. Thank you.
This is a dumb analysis. The Princess Bride is a reading of a book. Showing the plot holes or continuity errors in how the tale is being portrayed to the audience forgets this important distinction.
Oh, for pity's sake. It's a Fairytale wrapped in a touching, and itself amusing, familial story. Mentioning "Christmas" and flogging that point to death, then just burbling. I'm surprised that you didn't harp on about the fact that all the characters have extraordinarily strong bladders, and no need to defecate either.
One thing that never made sense is when Prince Humperdinck puts the machine up to 50 and Westley screams so loud that he can be heard for miles, Count Rugen and Albino don't cover their ears.
Don't forget the recreation of Rob Reiner's navy cap on the shelf over the grandson's bed! Christopher Guest demanded that there was at least 1 nod to the fact that he and Rob Reiner had worked on Spinal Tap if he was to agree to do the movie as Count Rugen. The hat is visible briefly around timestamp 0:32-0:34 as his mother checks his temp and kisses his forehead.
5:17 Considering Humperdinck hired Vizzini to perform a kill on Buttercup, thr prince probably set all that stuff up for Vizzini. That was my assumption when I saw the movie for the first time at age 6. 😉
Count Rugen's scar inflicted by Inigo was in the same spot in which is where the scar that Robin Loxley inflicted on the sheriff of Nottingham in "The Prince of Thieves".
@@susie9893; I have seen "Men In Tights", but what has that got to do with the cheek scar on the villains from either the Princess Bride or the unrelated "Prince of Thieves" aside from the fact that two of those movies happen to have Carry Ewes as the hero and that two out of the 3 happen to be retellings of Robinhood? Besides if I have not seen the movie I wouldn't have understood that it was more like a comedy pantomime than a movie movie and besides I haven't watched it in a long time and the last time I have seen it was my second time. I know very well that Robinhood was supposed to be either English or welsh anyway and that is the whole thing about Robinhood's heritage and Legacy, because he isn't just one guy, he is any outlaw that outshines other outlaws (Except maybe Zorro and Puss in Boots[Yes I am including Puss In Boots, yes I know you'd say "Puss In Boots is not Legendary" and that is true but he is a lot more dangerous and far more cute of an Outlaw from a fictional standpoint than Zorro and Robinhood combined, and that isn't just the Zorro stereotyped version from the Shrek universe, I am talking about Puss In Boots in the entire general history of every story he comes from]{yes; obviously because he is a talking magical cat and not a human}).
Well then, perhaps you are just a little bit foolish... because most of what this video nitpicks the maker of the video got wrong. Have a read through the comments... Enjoy.
Actually, he does say he doesn't want Wesley to be embarrassed but then he goes on to say he doesn't like for people to die underhand. It's all part of his feeling of fair play. Killing each other like civilised people 😅
@@susie9893actually, it's the reverse order. Vizzini tells him to hide behind the boulder and throw the rock at Westley. This is when Fezzik says it's "not very sportsmanlike". Part way into their hand to hand combat Westley asks if Fezzik is really trying or just toying with him, to which Fezzik responds that he likes to let his opponents think that they are doing well ... because he hates for people to "die embarrassed". I may have watched this movie too many times 😅
Its a fairy tale. I expected a video that as more on its satire and parody of fairy tales and adventure stories and more of a film essay than a nit picky video. Some choices were made for comedic purposes and to further the plot instead. I have been a fan of this movie since I was a child and watched it multiple times as an adult and don't spend my time nitpicking a perfectly entertaining story.
The post about buttercup making the right decision is very true. If your boo is declared dead for 5 YEARS and you’re forced into a loveless marriage, I don’t blame you for getting married.
4:09 I think the idea of Westley potentially killing him did cross my mind at some point. I didn't realize Fezzik may have killed the albino. I was wondering how the hell Inigo would survive all these wounds. Him dying is kind of a bummer.
If you had read the book, you'd know a lot more. Fezzik, Ignigo and Buttercup. I'd recommend you start with the abridged version as the original by S. Morgenstern is almost unreably long winded. If you read the book you get it.
In the first one that you said it was a Christmas Time movie you failed to reveal that in the end the grandfather told his grandson shalom. That would most likely make family Jewish. Though there are variants and the grandsons parent could be of a different faith but Grandpa gave him a book wrapped in Christmas paper. Odd
🤷♀️ But we can *say* it's a Christmas movie and add it to the list of movies we'd rather subject the family to than the majority of Christmas movies out there. I could bear to make this movie an annual tradition (even though I know it by heart)
No! No! No! Inigo does not die! He kissed the miracle pill before he gave it to Westley. So, his wounds (eventually) heal up and he lives a long, happy life. I will accept no other ending for his story than this!
Did you mss these moments? Inconceivable!
When the brute squad search and clear the village they come across an inebriated Inigo. The solldier challanges Inigo with the phrase "Ho there" to which Inigo replies , "Ho there yourself" or Joder , spanish for F-you or go F-yourself. Since you have a list an all.
the only thing "inconceivable" about all this is the "i" YOU are missing in "miss" 😂
It's inconceivable for this cult classic movie to be remake, reboot or have sequel's & prequel's 💯
Ummm, they do start to turn the boat. Vizinni clearly says 'Turn Left, no your other left'.
@Playfulpanthress You're right about Buttercup and the water, but Íñigo's name is Spanish (for "Fiery") and the "tilda" above the "n" makes it an "enya" and gives it a "ny" pronunciation.

I expected this to be about adult themed jokes rather than minor plot holes.
Same, disappointing
Likewise.
Exactly
Bingo
Same, what a crock of shit!
nono the reason the boat "jumped" to her is because the grandfather paused reading, then accidentally reread parts, then skipped ahead slightly. the entire thing is based inside the narrative of a book, after all.
Yeah. It's like when a narrator says, "Let me back up." and the video reverses.
Exactly!
AND!! Vazzini yells "STEER LEFT!! LEFT!!!" When she jumps in. So yeah, the boat does steer off course!
It doesn't really matter bcos all the events we see are what the boy is picturing in his head as his grandfather reads to him. Continuity has no place in that context

Thank you I love the book lord though! The movie is so great though!
Everyone: the book is always better than the movie

The most unnecessary video about an amazing movie.
Reading the book fills in Fezzik's backstory (incredibly well, and everyone else's backstories), how Inigo fares at the end, and more. It makes the movie even better!

If you want to know more about the characters, read the book. It's one of my favorite books ever and probably my most reread.
Idk why this whole video sounded like Karen complaining to Cinema managers why the movie isn't realistic enough for a work of fiction.
😂
😂🔨👍🏼

In whose reality does fantasy need to be entirely realistic? Kinda defeats the purpose of the genre, right?
Since they didn't show it otherwise, I'm going to assume that Inigo survived.
Hey, Arya Stark survived similar wounds, jumped into filthy water, and still survived long enough to become a Deus Ex Machina, so why not?
I had always assumed the same, that not only had Indigo survived, but became the next Dread Pirate Roberts, as Wesley suggested.

@@Hi-me2jn Inigo*
I just assumed they would take him to Miracle Max? If he can bring Wesley back he can save Inigo
This is more like, when you become adult, you start nitpicking.
Someone needs to do it! Those pesky kids only want to pay attention to the story.
..the dumbest most irrelevant non-problems.
6:25 Buttercup didn't agree to an arranged marriage, she had no choice, it was the law of the land
Ah yes! Just one more thing this pointless video got wrong!
Two errors on Fezzik.
You can criticize this masterpiece as much as you want. just do: AS YOU WISH!!!!!!❤
Haha! Nice
Newsflash:
This film is _not_ based on a true story.
Fiction, heard of it?
Exactly. Not just that it’s fiction but that the ENTIRE motherf****** motif is of a grandfather lovingly reading a story, with breaks, asides, occasional clarifications, et al. to his grandson. I mourn for Looper that they apparently have neither read nor been read to enough to understand how this kind of storytelling works.

Forgetting ..the dred pirate Robert's never leaves survivers and it was none that the vessel he was on was attacked by said pirate. She died that day.
The whole "Fezzik having powers" thing is a total stretch
Viziny tells them to 'turn left, no the other left's, so it's indeed a stretch.
Pun intended?
@@sarahwade6720 Nope
I love this film and one that I still watch as an adult
It's a comedy fantasy, use your imagination and relax. Movies are not supposed to be everything, fill in the blanks with your vast imagination.
Man, did you guys just try to s*** all over this film!!
Ye he did :c
Tried really hard and failed embarrassingly, kinda like Humperdink and Vizzini 🤣
I want 10 minutes of my life back, please. With interest. Thank you in advance.
Boat - drifting from the water movement. Not difficult to imagine.

Apparently they never made a "telephone" out of two cans and a piece of string as a kid. What a dull, unimaginative childhood they must have had. That's probably why they wanted to nitpick the greatest fantasy movie of all time. 😢
No one ever thought these things. They just enjoyed a wonderful movie
I think we noticed but since this is one of the most memorable and wonderful movies we've ever seen, who cares!!
The Looper series "Things only adults notice..." should be more properly titled: "Things even kids noticed but Looper only just now noticed..."
Actually it should be titled "Things Looper Was Paying Too Little Attention to in This Great Movie to Understand"
The errors in this video indicate the author wasn't paying attention at all.
Why are you over analyzing this magical fiary tale? 🤔🤨 Just accept the fact this was a timeless fairy tale with all the elements of a classic. Adventues. Magic. Humor. Romance. Heroes. Villains. Monsters. What more could you expect from this rare gem? Most of all - Love will prevail. ❤
Fencing, fighting, torture, revenge, giants, monsters, chases, escapes, true love!
One of my favorite movies of all time. I can recite the entire script by heart. 👏🏻
Prove it
Yes, I eventually gave away my copy for exactly that reason. No point having it if it lives permanently in your head

Isn't a huge message in this film about believing in the impossible?

Inigo had that leather vest, probably a layer or two of linen. Rugen didn’t seem to get a very strong throw with that dagger. I think it cut him, but it wasn’t too deep. Mostly knocked the wind out of him. Plus, we know Miracle Max is within a few hour’s ride of the castle.
Indigo isn’t dying here, I don’t think.
Plus, in a pinch, they can just head to the fire swamp and crudely cauterize the wound with a sword
Besides, Inigo CAN'T die. Ditto Mandy Patinkin.
Also, Inigo has been training for this moment for a ton of his life-from studying to practicing to adventuring. All while Rugen has been living the high life being an evil aide(?) to the Prince and giving orders. Of the two, Inigo has probably more of a hearty bodily defense against harm than Rugen.
And no matter how deep the knife goes, it is very possible to miss all vital organs and major blood vessels when you hit the stomach area.
You do know this is the boy's imagination listening to his Grandpa reading the book right?
This video just shows that some people have too much time in their hands.
And yet, with all that time, they still didn't pay any attention to the movie, and so they are completely wrong on most of this.
If you read the comments, much of it is debunked.
Boots full of rocks -> "We may never know". Those are called jokes. The guy climbed a rocky cliff. His boots are full of rocks like they would of sand. It doesn't make sense, it's non-sensical humor, and it's funny. That's what an adult might notice when they forget about humor.
INIGO LIVED DAMNIT!! I’m not crying you’re crying!!
This is my childhood movie that I was raised on every since I was a few months old
As it should be!!
They went to Miracle Max after they left the castle
In the book Vizzini uses a magical spell to raise the rope from the boat landing to the top. Inconceivable.
nitpick all you want, this is still my all time favourite movie
Explanation for the cliff scene - He's not stupid! He knows that as soon as they reach the top they're gonna cut the rope
The book is wrapped as a birthday gift. He even mentions birthday boy.
As for the albino, you missed where they mentioned leaving the wheelbarrow over the albino. So possibly indicating that he did die.
Excellent point. You've no doubt watched this movie as often as I
Don't watch this video. Even when I was a teenager watching this I recognized that you don't question movie fantasy, you enjoy the ride. This isn't anything a child wouldn't notice, I noted all of that just fine, I just didn't, and don't, care to concern myself with minor plot holes while watching a fantasy movie filled with mystical magic and meanings. Not to mention it being the greatest love story ever told... hopefully tomorrow, I'll be able to watch it again. As I wish.
Or that it's one of the funniest movies ever made
@@susie9893yup.
The one thing this video got right is the line about "an iconic scene in a movie made up almost entirely of iconic scenes".
Your inconceivable narrating this movie 😂😂😂😂
I always just assume the "land war in Asia" line goes over the heads of most kids watching it, especially those born well after this movie's initial release.
It certainly went over my head as a child, I didn't get it till I was a late teen (not being American, and Vietnam not being anywhere near my generation - I eventually realised thru watching reruns of MASH 😂).
But I think that just proves how multi generational this movie is
I'm going to go ahead and say that there are so many dislikes already because the title is "Only Adults Notice" so it makes you think that you're going to show us some dirty scenes that we might just not have realized when we were kids. But that isn't the video, you are just pointing out inconsistencies and little plot holes. So yeah dislikes are because of the misleading title.
not one of them, js.
No. The dislikes are because the video is actually wrong in most of its criticisms...because whoever made this video wasn't paying attention to detail at all.
In fact, they may end up dying embarrassed when their time comes 🤣
One of the best family movies ever. Oh in case you missed it Star Wars isn’t real either. Get a life!
You will never know how much I've loved your performances.... Yentil, Criminal Minds, but the most of all.... my childhood had 3 copies (taped from cable and 2 because we lent one to a licensed copy to a family friend, which sent back over a year later). I fell in love with you in The Princess Bride and Indigo Montoya, I love your acting. Thank you. I've lost both parents and that movie..... you have no idea. I'm the "movie buff completely. I remember everything I watch. I'm approached by family to link acts. Its not the 6 degrees of Kevin Bacon for me. I love you and you Sir are a class act.
Of course Inigo survived. They just humiliated Prince Humpderdink. Miracle Max will whip up another chocolate-covered pill and Inigo will be back to swordfighting in no time.
Any discrepancy in this movie can be explained by the fact that we're not watching a portrayal of the story, but the grandson's imagination on what the grandfather is reading to him
3:22 'We may never know?' That's your problem not ours !!!
It’s a fairy tale. The good guys never die
Climbing the rope was done to set up tension for the sword fight. Also, presumably it could have served as a shortcut or a way to throw potential followers off their track by not taking the conventional route.
Depending on how deep the thrown knife wound was Inigo could have survived it. plus inigo skewered the count so it was hardly a superficial wound by comparison to his own.
You missed the whole movie
Umm, did you not notice the backpack/bag next to Vizzini during the "Battle of Wits"?!?
That was where he got the wine, cheese, giblets and tablecloth. 😉
Ummm.... goblets. Giblets come from chickens, not backpacks 😅
Wait. You mean Die Hard is the *second* best Christmas movie?
😂 When he said this I thought: Yay, I get to add this to Die Hard for family Christmas movies!
Perfect
You forgot to mention there's no such thing as light sabers !
🤗
I absolutely adore this little movie gem! Terrific video 👍
The movie is amazing.
This video is rubbish.
Have a read through the comments... Most of what this video claims is incorrect. The maker of the video just was not paying enough attention to detail 😂
I definitely noticed the fact that she was too far away for Fezik to have grabbed from the boat when I was a kid 🤣
As an adult, I did wonder what this video had in store. Turns out it was 'mostly' continuity or 'where did that come from?' and a little litterally-ism. There's nothing wrong with a bit of Fantasy to take you away from common old day life. And there's nothing worse than a kid asking you "Why?" "What?" "Where?" Adults accept this movie for what it is. A fantastical romp. Kids question.
And in answer to the questions of Inigo and Fezzik's past and future/future and past.. you can all read about that in the sequel, "Buttercup's Baby".
Awesome movie. Perfect in all aspects
I gave up watching after 5 minutes of trying to take the joy out of a great movie. Must be a lot of fun at a party, next you can explain all Penn and Teller tricks. Thank you.
WE LOVE THESE BITS!! And, so, if you didn't notice these then.... Keep moving on 😂
This is a dumb analysis. The Princess Bride is a reading of a book. Showing the plot holes or continuity errors in how the tale is being portrayed to the audience forgets this important distinction.
Inigo did not die! How dare you
Man...you are truly reaching here. Have you run out of material for other movies???
Oh, for pity's sake. It's a Fairytale wrapped in a touching, and itself amusing, familial story. Mentioning "Christmas" and flogging that point to death, then just burbling. I'm surprised that you didn't harp on about the fact that all the characters have extraordinarily strong bladders, and no need to defecate either.
Actually vinncini tells fezek to turn left after the princess jumps
Inigo Montoya the best of the whole movie enough said he would be a great pirate.I wish they had shown Pirate Roberts in the movie.
He's too honorable to be a pirate.
They did. Wesley
One thing that never made sense is when Prince Humperdinck puts the machine up to 50 and Westley screams so loud that he can be heard for miles, Count Rugen and Albino don't cover their ears.
Probably used to ear-splitting screams of torture.
It was for science dear boy
1:36 or it is a movie sin and they just forgot to move the boat
The 11 fingered man was apparently a nod to Reiner's earlier film, Spinal Tap, which had an amp that went to "11".
Don't forget the recreation of Rob Reiner's navy cap on the shelf over the grandson's bed! Christopher Guest demanded that there was at least 1 nod to the fact that he and Rob Reiner had worked on Spinal Tap if he was to agree to do the movie as Count Rugen. The hat is visible briefly around timestamp 0:32-0:34 as his mother checks his temp and kisses his forehead.
5:17 Considering Humperdinck hired Vizzini to perform a kill on Buttercup, thr prince probably set all that stuff up for Vizzini. That was my assumption when I saw the movie for the first time at age 6. 😉
Count Rugen's scar inflicted by Inigo was in the same spot in which is where the scar that Robin Loxley inflicted on the sheriff of Nottingham in "The Prince of Thieves".
I have a mole??
@@susie9893; 😕your comment you sent to me does not make sense🤨; What does that have anything to do with either one of my own comments?
@@HeatherNickless-vt8zr never seen Men In Tights then? The other (better) Robin Hood: the one with the "English accent" you know 😅
@@susie9893; I have seen "Men In Tights", but what has that got to do with the cheek scar on the villains from either the Princess Bride or the unrelated "Prince of Thieves" aside from the fact that two of those movies happen to have Carry Ewes as the hero and that two out of the 3 happen to be retellings of Robinhood? Besides if I have not seen the movie I wouldn't have understood that it was more like a comedy pantomime than a movie movie and besides I haven't watched it in a long time and the last time I have seen it was my second time. I know very well that Robinhood was supposed to be either English or welsh anyway and that is the whole thing about Robinhood's heritage and Legacy, because he isn't just one guy, he is any outlaw that outshines other outlaws (Except maybe Zorro and Puss in Boots[Yes I am including Puss In Boots, yes I know you'd say "Puss In Boots is not Legendary" and that is true but he is a lot more dangerous and far more cute of an Outlaw from a fictional standpoint than Zorro and Robinhood combined, and that isn't just the Zorro stereotyped version from the Shrek universe, I am talking about Puss In Boots in the entire general history of every story he comes from]{yes; obviously because he is a talking magical cat and not a human}).
I’m 13 and this guy thinks I’m an idiot. Of course I saw these
Well then, perhaps you are just a little bit foolish... because most of what this video nitpicks the maker of the video got wrong.
Have a read through the comments... Enjoy.
The line is “Embarrassed” but I always thought he was saying “on bare hands” when I was a kid. His emphasis on the syllables makes it sound like that.
Actually, he does say he doesn't want Wesley to be embarrassed but then he goes on to say he doesn't like for people to die underhand. It's all part of his feeling of fair play.
Killing each other like civilised people 😅
@@susie9893actually, it's the reverse order.
Vizzini tells him to hide behind the boulder and throw the rock at Westley. This is when Fezzik says it's "not very sportsmanlike".
Part way into their hand to hand combat Westley asks if Fezzik is really trying or just toying with him, to which Fezzik responds that he likes to let his opponents think that they are doing well ...
because he hates for people to "die embarrassed".
I may have watched this movie too many times 😅
Its a fairy tale. I expected a video that as more on its satire and parody of fairy tales and adventure stories and more of a film essay than a nit picky video. Some choices were made for comedic purposes and to further the plot instead. I have been a fan of this movie since I was a child and watched it multiple times as an adult and don't spend my time nitpicking a perfectly entertaining story.
So what? It’s the greatest movie ever. We can ignore any supposed errors for the fairy tale.
I told you I already loved your vids @Looper
The post about buttercup making the right decision is very true. If your boo is declared dead for 5 YEARS and you’re forced into a loveless marriage, I don’t blame you for getting married.
I think the point of Wesley clinging to the rock was that he’s just that inconceivable.
4:09 I think the idea of Westley potentially killing him did cross my mind at some point.
I didn't realize Fezzik may have killed the albino.
I was wondering how the hell Inigo would survive all these wounds. Him dying is kind of a bummer.
Wesley did not die - the knife missed all internal organs. And riding a galloping horse with an abdominal wound .... Okay, but Wesley didn't die.
@@windycityliz7711 I was talking about Inigo.
My error - I meant Inigo. He did not die either. @@zachtwilightwindwaker596
I always figured the boat kept drifting. Or the producer made a mistake.
Vizzini barks an order to "steer left".
If you had read the book, you'd know a lot more. Fezzik, Ignigo and Buttercup. I'd recommend you start with the abridged version as the original by S. Morgenstern is almost unreably long winded. If you read the book you get it.
It's on my to do list
It’s what’s called an movie mate,just enjoy it
In the first one that you said it was a Christmas Time movie you failed to reveal that in the end the grandfather told his grandson shalom. That would most likely make family Jewish. Though there are variants and the grandsons parent could be of a different faith but Grandpa gave him a book wrapped in Christmas paper. Odd
🤷♀️
But we can *say* it's a Christmas movie and add it to the list of movies we'd rather subject the family to than the majority of Christmas movies out there.
I could bear to make this movie an annual tradition (even though I know it by heart)
No! No! No! Inigo does not die! He kissed the miracle pill before he gave it to Westley. So, his wounds (eventually) heal up and he lives a long, happy life. I will accept no other ending for his story than this!
this just makes me love the movie more
People forget this is also a comedy
Also?
One part is that the swamp of Despair Wesley scuba dives in the sand which is weird and funny.
Who gaf about any of this. The movie was great!!!
Is it just me or do you think all the “errors” were in the movie to make it funnier?
Not just you
And most of the stuff this video claims is wrong.
I didnt enjoy any of this.
It didn't diminish my enjoyment of the film, but rather my enjoyment of this channel hahaha
