@faerierealm Well, I remember watching it on VHS and me and all my fantasy-loving buddies LOVED it. Years later, I found the book , instantly bought it and read it. I have years to see such a warm, funny, romantic movie with all the ingredients in exactly the right doses. (Damn I haven't seen it in YEARS! OK, just added it on the To-Do list, now!!!!)

@panos "My name is Inigo Montoya. Yu killed my father. Prepare to die." So many quotable lines from that film haha. And yes, you're not the only one. In fact, I would venture that at least a quarter of Gen Xers will be familiar with the movie!

Wow!!! So, I'm not the only one who loves that movie and those characters on this planet?!!! (my absolute favourite: "Hello, my name is Inigo Montoya....")

Yes, it's definitely the kind of movie you can rewatch over the years. "Have fun storming the castle!" 😆

How are you able to rhyme so well? You're like Fezzik in the Princess Bride haha.
