Such a quotable movie.
Let's hear your favourites!
Most quotable movie of all time is Caddyshack. Every golfer says at least one per round.
Let me explain. No there is too much. Let me sum up.
"You seem a decent fellow, I hate to kill you."
"You seem a decent fellow, I hate to die."
R.O.U.S. (Rodents Of Unusual Size) 🐀
Pluto, Aristotle, Socrates...morons.
One of the few perfect stories in Hollywood’s long history, and yes, that was Billy Crystal
Not just Billy Crystal, but the legendary Carol Cain as his wife.
There’s a shortage of perfect movies in this world it would be a pity to damage this one
@@Madd_u_mad Nicely done😂
"I kinda don't want it to be over." Watch it again tomorrow. This movie literally never gets old.
As you wish.
There's a shortage of perfect movies in the world. It would be a pity to have overlooked it
Its over... INCONCEIVABLE!
I love this 😊
PREACH!! 100%
A whole bunch of people I went to uni with said this was their favourite movie as a kid, and they were all surprised I'd never seen it. I didn't wind up watching it myself until I was like 25 or something but I spent the entire movie thinking "yes, I understand, this would have altered my whole personality if I saw it as a child."
My thoughts exactly!
Cary Elwes' physical comedy is on point!
I've got a newfound appreciation for him!
@@RyanCarrington If you look into the films he has done it goes from this, to Liar Liar, to Robin Hood Men In Tights, to SAW. Think about that. This movie and SAW. Pretty accomplished and diverse if you ask me (which you didn't LOL).
There's not a single other film I can name, where a 5 year old and an 85 year old can sit down and watch together, and both enjoy it equally.
Shrek
Not going to lie, The Princess Diaries is pretty fantastic as well.
Better than it has any right to be.
Fact!
Did you recognize the actor that played the man with six fingers? Epic comedic actor, Christopher Guest who was in Spinal Tap and Best in Show. The man is an absolute chameleon.
I can't believe I didn't recognise him!
None more black 😂
@@RyanCarrington Well, to be fair, it's not your job to be as confused as Nigel.
@@RyanCarrington Princess Bride and This is Spinal Tap were directed by Rob Reiner (he plays Marty DeBergi in Spinal Tap). I cannot recommend highly enough the movie he directed right after Spinal Tap: The Sure Thing. It stars a very young John Cusack. It's a comedy, road trip movie, a Christmas movie and is SO GREAT! One of my all-time favorites. Just... see it, your life will be better for it. :)
My brain still can't connect them as the same actor. It's uncanny.
@@oscardiggs246 Of course, he also directed _North_ .
The giant, Fezzik was played by professional wrestler Andre The Giant.
A rare perfect movie. The story and characters are exactly as they should be. The pacing and length are spot on. Humor, action, romance, comraderie, and villainy, all well done.
Buttercup: "What about the ROUSes?"
Wesley: "Rodents Of Unusual Size? I don't think they exist."
*ROUS: "Bet."*
Carey Elwes did get a concussion in this film, when Christopher Guest (Count Rugen) hit him in the head with his sword. He's really being knocked unconscious in that shot and had to be rushed to the hospital. I saw this movie after it first came out. I was seventeen and it still became my second favorite film ever. When Mandy Patinkin says, "I want my father back, you son of a bitch!" I fight tears every single time.
That line is the biggest reason I had a hard time watching this after my own dad died of cancer; because I also want my father back.
He also bruised a rib trying to keep in his laughter (pretending to be dead) while Billy Crystal was ablibing his lines
@@erinesque1889Mandy Patinkin had lost his dad to cancer just before filming this. I think it shows in his delivery.
I was lucky enough to see it at an outdoor screening in a park, and the triumphant cheers when said he said that line...
@@erinesque1889I'm so sorry for your loss. I lost mine to cancer as well. That line still makes me cry to this day..
Yes that’s Billy Crystal and the wife is Carol Kane-the ghost of Christmas present in Scrooged and Latka’s wife in Taxi.
Tankyu veddy much!
She is also a recurring actor in the upcoming season of Star Trek: Strange New Worlds as their new chief engineer.
I had no idea Carol Kane was Latka’s wife! I honestly didn’t think I’d learn something new about the Princess Bride. Thanks!
The excellence of the main pair in the movie is, in a funny way, a tribute to step-parents. Robin Wright, though a California girl, had a British stepfather and so was able to do a flawless English accent. And Cary Elwes, though British, had an American stepfather and spent part of his youth in the US, and grew up liking and understanding American humor, so he could give the right undertones to his lines and action.
That is a worthy piece of trivia😊
I grew up with this movie. I can't remember a time when I hadn't seen it. My family quotes it CONSTANTLY. Such a great classic.
As someone that was born a year after this movie was made....same 😅 This was a favourite growing up, and it has remained a favourite
Fun (kinda) fact:
The actor who played Inigo lost his father to cancer during filming. During the final fight with the Count, he imagined he was fighting cancer itself. His intensity was real (as was the fear in the Count's eyes... the actor has stated he was genuinely afraid of being hurt because of Patinkin's intensity)... and his final line of "I want my father back" has so much extra weight because of that.
The actor who plays Fazzik is Andre The Giant. He used to be a professional wrestler and R.I.P. to him. Fun fact Fred Savage that plays the little boy in bed was a big fan of Andre The Giant. They had no filming scenes together. Andre showed up on set to visit Fred. They became good friends after meeting each other
Films that were told from the storytelling format:
The Princess Bride (1987)
The NeverEnding Story (1984)
Stranger Than Fiction (2006)
The Pagemaster (1994)
The Secret Life of Walter Mitty (2013)
The Book of Henry (2017)
The Imaginarium of Doctor Parnassus (2009)
The Words (2012)
The Fall (2006)
The Ninth Gate (1999)
and I'm sure a few more. Cheers!
Thanks for this!
Stranger Than Fiction !!!!
Would _The Grand Budapest Hotel_ (2014) fit in there as well?
@@RyanCarringtonI highly recommend The Ninth Gate.
@@0okamino maybe also Fallen (1998)
"Yes, you're very smart. Shut up." 🤣🤣🤣
The Never Ending Story. Another film where the plot unfolds as someone is reading a story. And a very awesome 80's film. Very much worthy of a reaction.
I kind of wish that they’d remake The Neverending Story and actually complete the story - I’d like to see Ygrammul and the multi coloured death and a transformed Bastian as well as a talking Artax and a green skinned/blue haired Atreyu. It would be very long but so worth it imo
It's only wonderful when you don't know the book, of which it only covers the first half and thus completely cripples the message.
@@erinesque1889 Could be done in two movies. Though best shot back-to-back or even in parallel so that the main actor doesn't age too much.
I think the author sued for some reason so they cant remake the neverending story.
I only saw this for the first time 4 or 5 years ago, couldn't tell you how many times I've seen it since, I absolutely adore it. And Cary Elwes physical comedy after coming back from being "mostly dead" is so good here, it's almost Jim Carrey like (ironic given the Liar Liar clip you stuck in haha).
Aha yeah I didn't think about the Jim Carrey comparison.
That bit killed me 😂
The Neverending Story (1984) is told like a book
He really needs to check this one out next.
Thanks
Wow, thank you 🖤
@@RyanCarrington thank you so much!!! My favourite movie as a youngster ❤️
@@sdu74 I can see why! I missed out 😫
@@RyanCarrington another movie you might want to check out is Stardust (2007). Similar to The Princess Bride. Another of my favourite movies (hence my username lol!)
The Princess Diaries isn't that bad either 😄
Though you'd probably like Ever After or Ella Enchanted more
Edit: yes, that's Billy Crystal. The pale dude was comedian Mel Smith of Alas Smith & Jones fame
First watched this when I was about 13 years old. Loved it, still love it. It's my #1 movie (followed by Labyrinth and Ladyhawke). Went through 3 VHS tapes and when the 3rd one was worn, I got the DVD.
Oh.. Ladyhawke and Labyrinth always rounded out this trio for me too. I think I saw them all within weeks of each other. Doesn't get any better.
These are both solid choices! The 80's had some fantastic fantasy films, and these are upper echelon.
OMG, Ladyhawke!! Brilliant movie! ❤❤❤
Mark Knopfler from Dire Straits wrote the score for this movie.
Cool. I did not know that 👨🎓
RIP, Andre The Giant, 1946-1993.
Also, "My name is Ignio Montoya, you killed my father, prepare to die."
"Stop saying that!"
Lol!
The Princess Bride is basically an 80s Dungeons and Dragons adventure on film. I love it
Where's the Bard
@@SilverScribe85 No one played a bard back then 😅
@@ThisLoveIsSweet Aw, nuts
@@SilverScribe85 Inigo could be a Swords bard. Bit of a stretch, but... he's got enough Dex to pull that stretch off
@@JaneXemylixa What about Fezzik
andre the giant going "that not every sportsman like" is funny
I was 8 years old when this came out. A story of a grandson and grandfather bonding over a young adult adventure story. The best part is how much fun the grandson will have enjoying those fun characters the next day with his grand dad.
Amazing team of actors, beautifully shot scenes, fun action, great humor and heart, awesome sword fight.
Impossible to overrate this movie.
It was a lot of fun watching The Princess Bride with you. I was 18 when this came out and I saw it for the first time. Now at 53 I've lost count of how many times I've watched it. There was a time when almost everyone I knew could quote from this movie.
The best thing about The Princess Bride is that it's not primarily for kids. The Python-esque humor is perfect for this "fractured fairy tale".
"That guy is huge." Yes, Andre the Giant was a fairly large man. 🤣
You can put this movie in your Christmas viewing pile of DVDs; notice the decorations in Grandson's room, the hallway when room door is open, snow on rooves, Santa cut-out on closet door, etc.
The actor playing the prince, was a vampire in an 80s movie called Fright Night! It's AWESOME!
I'll add it to the list! Thanks man!
@@RyanCarrington no problem man, take care!
Chris Sarandon. He’s the reason Susan is a Sarandon. They were married about 12 years, divorced in 1979, but she kept the last name.
Seconding Fright Night! Make sure it's the 80s version! There was a 2000-teens remake, which wasn't bad, but not nearly as good either.
This is my absolute favorite movie ever since I saw it in the theater. I have been suggesting it to everyone since then, and people would always think I am crazy because of the movie name. But it is just fun in every way, and good for the whole family (with exception of when Count Rugen gets killed... a bit bloody for little kids). Great, great movie.
Love this movie
I was 21 when this movie came out... Loved it then... love it now... I will always love this movie... it's one of my all time favorites and will always have a special place in my heart.
William Goldman, the author of the book and the (screenwriter of this and many great movies), asked his two young daughters what they would like him to write a story about. One said a story of a Princess, the other wanted a story about a Bride...
There is a shortage of perfect movies in Hollywood, but this is one of them. It is a classic story, a movie that knows exactly what it is. It doesn't take itself seriously, it is perfectly cast and the actors deliver their roles professionally. It seems that the writers, directors, producers, and actors were all on the same page and made it look like a well oiled machine. I don't think it is the "Greatest" movie of all time, but it is perfection IMHO.
Neverending Story tells the story in a similar way
The intro is oddly relatable. My sister asked for The Princess Diaries on dvd for Christmas back around 2002 but my dad accidentally bought The Princess Bride. That’s how I first saw this movie when I was 10/11 and absolutely loved it. Been one of my favorites ever since!
Bro was really gonna watch The Princess Diaries for us. 🤣
Such a fantastic film! And the book is awesome, too. I often get bored trying to read a book when I've seen the movie, but not with this one.
I first saw this in the movie theatres when it came out. I was a teenager.
There's a version of the book that cuts out all the excessive politics, which is the version I found
@@o0PonderousPanda0o Are you sure that wasn't the actual book?
@bitemark it literally had messages in it at the beginning of some chapters with summaries of what the political info was, and that it had been removed. "This chapter goes on about X country doing X thing" etc.
@@o0PonderousPanda0o Yeah I'm pretty sure that was the actual book :) the book is written much like this movie was made, it's a dad reading the book to his sick son, and keeps referencing the "original" book (there is no original), about how it would go on and on for pages just about fashion and pagentry, and political climate, etc
The Albino is played by the late Mel Smith, comedy partner of Griff Rhys Jones. Also, Peter Cook is in the credits as 'The Impressive Clergyman' which always makes me smile.
As a kid in the '90's, this was one of THE movies. I didn't even rent it all that often, but I didn't have to - it was everywhere. You go over to someone's house, they'd have this movie on. Parents get invited to a party; all the kids get shoved into a room with a film to keep them quiet; guess which movie would be on? Yep, this one. But no one ever got tired of it - I never once heard anyone gripe about watching 'Princess Bride' AGAIN, even though we'd all seen it a million times. I remember once, they showed it to us in school (well, one particular time; I probably saw it at least three times in school), and we were supposed to take notes on it to break down the story or something, but I got so into it that I forgot, and the teacher got mad at me. It's one of those very rare movies that the bloom never fades from, even if you can quote literally every line.
Thanks for the fun reaction, I appreciate your editing and the time you spend on it!
The Cliffs of Insanity were filmed at the The Cliffs of Moher in Ireland. A place I'd like to visit once I can manage to travel outside the USA.
Thanks for watching!
Definitely try to travel. I've been to Ireland once but only Dublin and did the typical touristy stuff.
I'm slightly envious that you can just hop in a car and see such a variety of landscapes living in the US, though!
I hate flying, so that would be perfect to me 😂
@Ryan Carrington You seem to underestimate just how utterly MASSIVE the US is. We have no fewer than 11 states that could easily fit in the entire land area of the UK at least once.
I spent 10 days in Dublin and had s threesome with two oppositely-shaped blondes. Had drinks with Larry and wife from U2. Had a tiny little red headed red bearded drunken Irish leprechaun fella freak out over my black american friend for being black. Did 6 sellout concerts. My favourite part was the meats and cheeses. So nice to have non-processed un-american food.
@@dorkandproudofit Canada looks down ands smirks as it fits 1.5 Texas' into Ontario. To quote The Arrogant Worms "Canada's Really Big" but also it's mostly "Rocks and Trees"
@@platinumspider7859 XD
This movie is for everyone boys and girls it is such a great movie. This movie is based on a book. The writer of the book also wrote the script of the movie . The scene with Westley and the six finger man when the six finger man hit him in the head was real and the actor who plays Wesley had to go to the hospital. here was real spark between the main actors in real life Westley and Buttercup that's why it works. Andre the giant used his big hands to protect Robin Wright (Buttercup ) head when she was cold on the set. You should also see Wilow, Lady Hawk, The Never Ending Story and The Labyrinth 1986. This is one of the movies with an epic soundtrack like Conan The Barbarian or Highlander which you should also see. one of my favorite quotes from this movie "“We are men of action, lies do not become us.”"
Highlander is on my list, actually. I think I put it on a poll a while ago. Thanks for the reminder.
The gf keeps nagging me about Labyrinth, so I'll get to that, too 😅
@@RyanCarringtonyou gotta watch Lady Hawk, it's my favorite Matthew Broderick movie.
Ladyhawk is hard. Good movie ruined by an awful soundtrack.
The cliffs they climbed were the Cliffs of Moher :)
That’s just crazy! 😉
Not just Billy Crystal, but Carol Kane playing his sassy wife. She played Simka, the sassy wife of Latka (Andy Kaufman), on the Taxi series, where Christopher Lloyd (Doc Brown in Back To The Future) also got his comedy acting start.
I was eleven or twelve the first time I watched it. My cousin kept telling me I needed to see it. I was not interested in watching some princess movie. So I very much got your vibe when you were resisting watching it. LOL.
I remember one time telling my friends to watch American Beauty. You should've seen how they looked at me 😂
I saw this in the theaters when I was 23 with a bunch of other friends. We all worked the Renaissance Faire. All of us starting quoting this movie all the time. It's my favorite movie.
When I first saw this, I was a bit put off by the fantastical elements, but then I realized what we see is a visualization of how a grandfather would describe a fantasy story to his grandchildren. It totally changed my perspective of the 'bad' effects and over-dramatic actions.
The quotes going
Westly: where is my sword?
Montoya: why you cannot use it?
Westly: thats hardly common knowlege now is it?
is such a great hint to how he beat Humperdink in the end.
"Why do they hang around that guy?", is exactly the reason why the book goes into more detail on Inigo's and Fezzik's bio.
Boils down to what he screams at them, though: He picked them up at their lowest points and gave their lives reason.
The main character, Wesley is played by Cary Elwes. Until just now looking him up, I thought he was from New Zealand, but he is English(born in Westminster in London).
"Unlike some other Robin Hoods, I can speak with an English accent." -- Cary Elwes in "Men in Tights"
They establish in the first bit that when Westley was saying "As you wish" what he really meant was "I love you." So when at the end Peter Falk says "As You Wish" to Fred Savage, what he really means is "I love you."
Andre could barely move by this point, he couldn't even actually carry Robin Wright but he still wrestled for three years or so after this.
I was about 12 when this came out and saw it.
Enjoyed your reaction, and since you asked: the book was published in '73, when I was 8. I found it and read it the summer of '80 (15). Still one of the funniest books I've ever read. When the movie came out, I was 22 & a young single working mother, so I didn't see it 'til it came out on video (& didn't think the movie could do the book justice, frankly). My son & I watched it when he was probably about 8 or so & it's still one of our favorites (he's 38 now). So here I am, 58, watching you enjoying a story that's s been around for most of my life. And I just became a grandmother, I hope I'm around long enough to watch it with my granddaughter! Subscribed.
RUclips recommended me Princess Diaries 2 below this video! 😂
Amazing 🤌 😂
The main character, Cary Elwes is English, he was born in Westminster. He's a fantastic actor and I love him in everything he's in.
My favorite musician, Mark Knopfler from Dire Straits, did the score.
I was nine when I first saw it. That was when it came out. Still is one of my favorite movies of all time.
The duel between Wesley and Inigo is so perfect. It isn't a fight, its a conversation with swords. I've seen it criticized as too showy, but thats the point. Inigo wouldn’t have been satisfied just with winning, he would want his opponent to KNOW that they did their best and lost to a superior foe.
I grew up with this movie and it's a favorite to this day! It's a unique mix of romantic fairytale and adventure, told in a fantastic way. Each detail has so much thought and love put into it, you can really feel it. It's just such a feel-good film! Leaves you smiling 🥰 ~Caroline
😊I love seeing people react to this film.
Hope you had fun watching along with me 🤙
Another great movie is Adventures in Babysitting. You would love it
Great thing about this movie: When channel surfing, you can hit this movie at any point and enjoy it from there!
This is one of those movies that all you have to say is one of the lines and people instantly know the movie
Directed by Rob Reiner son of Carl Reiner. Carl Reiner was a legend, directed Steve Martin’s breakout hit The Jerk amongst others. Carl and Mel Brooks were best friends til Carl died. Watch the Mel Brooks episode of Seinfeld’s Comedians Cars Coffee episode to see Mel and Carl hanging out. It’s so cute.
Rob Reiner is one of the most versatile directors ever. Misery. A Few Good Men. Stand By Me. Spinal Tap. When Harry Met Sally. Diverse and successful.
This movie was absolute perfection! This constantly recycled narrative out of Hollywood about how it should be remade is blasphemy!! Hands off!!!!!
There is the home movie remake version, which I find quite funny. I guess that counts more as a reenactment, though.
The fact that this movie is still so important is that the marriage part is part of orange, is the new black. They use that line.
This is one of those movies I could watch every day or two and never get tired of it, it's just delightufl, I love it so much. Infinitely quotable, lighthearted but also with respectable stakes. Wonderful characters. Ah, I love it so much :D
I didn't see this movie in theaters, but I saw it after it hit VHS, so I was 7 or 8 when I first saw it. It's been my favorite movie ever since.
I was 17 yrs old when this was released. I don't think I saw it in the theatre, but I've seen it many times
Yay! But also: WATCH THE PRINCESS DIARIES! It's also a good movie and would be a great one to react to!
Got a shoutout from the Diamond Dogs on Ted Lasso!
A few things I like about the movie. You mentioned at the Cliffs of Insanity, it looked like painted setwork and miniatures. The whole movie has almost a play-like feel instead of a movie. Inigo and Westley's sword fight at the beginning. The honor they show. Inigo hands Westley the sword he was going to kill him with. Great show of faith and honor. It is implied that the Dread Pirate Roberts (Westley) leaves no prisoners. We have to assume he has killed dozens of people by this time, but doesn't kill anyone. Well, maybe technically Vizzini, but he killed himself by intentionally drinking from a potentially poisoned cup. Grandpas "As you wish" at the end of the movie. So sweet. This movie is so corny, but hilarious, and always worth a watch!
He was playing on a Commodore 64, an early computing system. In the opening scene, you'll notice a short, wide, tan box to the right of the television. That is the disk drive for the computer.
When I was really little, the ROUS traumatized me and I could never remember what the giant rat puppet was from that haunted my dreams. Then one day when I was a teen, my father made me watch it and I humored him... I, too, confused it with the princess diaries.
Imagine Andre the Giant's hand on top of your head, while pretending to be paralyzed, Andre just moving your head around like a barber with hands the size of serving plates.
The main character was played by Cary Elwes who is English (Robin Hood Men In Tights, Twister - where he was the leader of the rival storm chasers).
The torturer was Mel Smith, film director and actor/comedian (Alas Smith and Jones, Wilt, Not the 9 o'clock News, etc.).
Yes, that was billy Crystal.
The Giant was played by a French born professional WWE wrestler who went by the name Andre The Giant.
I was 10 when I saw this in the theater. I still remember coming outside and it was raining.
Grandpa was played by Peter Falk, my fave of his was with Alan Arkin, "The InLaws" - of course he was also Colombo!
Most of the outdoor scenes were filmed in Ireland. The big cliffs above the sea are the Cliffs of Moher. Yes, they are really that high.
The six fingered man is Nigel from Spinal Tap 😉
Someone mentioned that earlier and it's blown my mind haha
The 'cheese race' you mention is called 'cheese rolling' and is done down one particular hill in Gloucestershire annually.
The albino is played by British comedian Mel Smith.
Divining or dowsing is the 'paranormal thing' for finding things, usually water.
I saw someone above call it divining (what Inigo was doing with the sword to find the Pit) and another call it dowsing. I know it as dowsing. I grew up in New England in the US and we call it dowsing and dowsers (those who practice) are also known as water witches. They are still used to this day to find water underground for wells.
This movie is a treat. Rob Reiner directed this. Other movies he directed are well worth watching, among them: This is Spinal Tap (1984), Stand By Me (1986), When Harry Met Sally (1989), Misery (1990), A Few Good Men (1992).
This is such a great, fun film. How they do these scenes and keep a straight face I'll never understand. Andr'e the Giant, known as the "8th Wonder of the world", "The Gentle Giant" was a fabulous wrestler in the 70s. Loved seeing him get into films. R.I.P. Thanx so much, Peace
I was a teen. I walked down the aisle to the theme song for my wedding. I was prime age for all these movies - I recommend Ladyhawke for a followup (Matthew Broderick, Michele Pfeiffer, Rutger Hauer)
One of Rob Reiner's best. The book is also quite excellent, though the framing device is different.
Hard to believe Reiner also made North. one of THE MOST hated movies in existence
Not really. I read the book many times, the author/narrator is the boy in the story, and his grandfather does read the story to him. Yes there's more to it, but the film remains remarkably faithful to the book.
A favorite film told like a storybook is Inkheart (2008) with Brendan Fraser, Andy Serkis, & Paul Bettany! 📖
I had the pleasure of watching this in the theater with my Dad I was 10 & loved every second of it..& I've been showing this to all my friends since lol loved your reaction!..
Aww!
The end credits song is so good. One of my favorites from any movie ever.
Sung by the lead singer from Dire Straits if I remember correctly.
@@TheArchangel911 Nope. Mark Knopfler, the lead of Dire Straights was the films composer but he didn't write or sing the end credits song. That was Willy DeVille of Mink DeVile.
@@muppetsstoogesfan1 very cool. I was always curious. thanks
Don't worry about quicksand. The way it is usually pictured was invented for the movies (where its usually just water with bits floating on it). There IS such a thing as quicksand, but you can't sink completely in it, only about up to your thighs. The problem with it is its usually in tidal bays and estuaries and it can be difficult to get out of. You can get stuck in it and then drown when the tide comes in. They say you should ideally lie down on the surface and crawl out.
It is Billy Crystal as Miracle Max. And, I was about 12 when this came out. LOVE this movie.
I don’t remember when I first saw it, I just know that I’d see it enough times I had it entirely memorized by the early 90s.
You got it first try, miracle max was billy crystal.
I was way too happy with that spot 😂
“Mime is money!”
Andre as the gentle giant was perfectly cast, he was and is always my favorite character. There are so many hilarious lines, such a quotable movie; Inigo Montoya ⚔️ has many that my family quote. 👸👰♀️💕
