1001 movies you must watch before you die – The Princess Bride (1987)

Now THIS is a cool movie I must say! This movie made me laugh more than all the supposedly funny bullshit we get today. Also it made my heart warm and cozy. It …it awakened the pussy in me. But it’s ok, because this movie is beautiful and it should awaken the pussy in everyone.

So ok. The movie starts with a grandpa reading a book to his grandson. The book (and also the movie) is about two lovers getting separated. And like the chick thinks that  (damn its long time ago I saw this I must say) her boyfriend is dead because he goes somewhere and never returns.. (war I think).. So she gets married with this abnoxious guy… a king or whatever. ANYWAY – the fun stuff starts when she gets abducted by 3 clowns. One of them a giant, another one some awesome swords guy wanting to kill his fathers killer and one big mouthed fat midget who is also the boss around there. Now these guys are god damn funny. So the chicks boyfriend returns as a pirate to rescue her from those guys (btw he is pissed because the damn bitch managed to get married in the meantime). Turns out the sword guy and the gentle giant arent that bad after all (the boss however is asshole enough to get killed). And this is what got me, I just LOVE movies where the villians arent that bad and they gradually become friends with the hero. Like ice age where diego is the bad guy to start with but then becomes friends with the rest. Uh… what was I saying? Ah yeah.. so the pirate, the gentle giant and the sword guy have to rescue the chick again unfortunately because thats what princesses do. Along the way a lot of awesome shit happens (this being in a fantasy universe, we get screaming fishes and all kinda crap. There were huge rats too I think).

I give it 5 screaming sharks or whatever that was out of 5 screaming sharks or whatever that was.

Btw, I have no idea why this is in the book other than being hell a entertaining.

 

EDIT: THEY WERE EELS! SCREAMING EELS! EEEEWWW
