You forget, the princess bride is on the dawn of recorded history for most of ATOT. I always wondered how many posters saw the original Star Wars when it was released in the theaters.

wat


No idea here.

Also, technically the comic is wrong, Wesly's character admits there is nothing to the pirate other than issue. She could have reasons for argument that he steals and never tried to contact her until now, but as for killing, that wasn't the case.

 

[Anubis]

You keep using that word. I do not think it means what you think it means

Oops, I meant how many people outside of ATOT would get it.
A lot of youngin's out there have never even seen yet alone heard of this movie.

Don't forget the Alt-Text

 

[Kadarin]

Inigo Montoya: That Vizzini, he can *fuss*.
Fezzik: Fuss, fuss... I think he like to scream at *us*.
Inigo Montoya: Probably he means no *harm*.
Fezzik: He's really very short on *charm*.
Inigo Montoya: You have a great gift for rhyme.
Fezzik: Yes, yes, some of the time.
Vizzini: Enough of that.
Inigo Montoya: Fezzik, are there rocks ahead?
Fezzik: If there are, we all be dead.
Vizzini: No more rhyming now, I mean it.
Fezzik: Anybody want a peanut?
Vizzini: DYEEAAHHHHHH.

Great movie, and probably one of the most quoted.

I was in the theater, but I was a baby. Don't know if that counts.


Regarding the topic, the inscription inside my wife's ring is "As you wish", so... yeah.
And for those wondering, it will finally be out on Blu-Ray 3/17.

It doesn't matter when the movie came out, everyone has seen it and it's still the best movie ever.

Period.

If you don't get princess bride references, you don't deserve to be entertained by xkcd.
