The Princess Bride (film)/Funny: Difference between revisions

{{work}}

* The entire Miracle Max scene.

'''Miracle Max:''' Have fun [[Storming the Castle|stormin' the castle]]!<br />

'''Valerie:''' (''to Max'') ...Think it'll work?<br />

* {{spoiler|Vizzini's}} death scene: He laughs manaically, then suddenly freezes mid-laugh, a grin permanently frozen on his face, and falls over, dead.

** Prior to it, we got this brilliant gem:

{{spoiler|'''Vizzini:'''}} '''''You'd like to think that, wouldn't you?!''''' (''continues stalling'') }}

* When the Albino wakes up Westley, first by speaking in a stereotypically raspy voice for an [[The Igor|Igor]], and then clearing his throat and speaking normally.

* This Troper (and her three family members) have yet to watch Buttercup throw herself down the hill without cracking up.

** This Troper seconds that.

'''Buttercup:''' (''proceeds to throw herself down the hill'') }}

* I, for one, could NOT stop laughing at Inigo's first encounter with the Six-Fingered man.

'''Six-fingered Man:''' (''runs for his life.'') }}

** During Count Rugen and Inigo's fight to the death:

'''Count Rugan:''' STOP SAYING THAT!!! }}

* The R.O.U.S.'s.

''[An ROUS immediately attacks him]'' }}

* Wesley screaming "AAAASSS YOOOOUUUU WIIIISH!" as he rolls down the hill. Cannot watch that part without laughing!

* This scene always makes this troper giggle:

'''The King:''' [[Completely Missing the Point|Won't that be nice.]] She kissed me, ha, ha, ha! }}

** Seconded! What makes it even funnier is as they're walking away, with the King beaming, while Buttercup is wooden and unresponsive, as if to say, "I can't believe it, he doesn't even care I'm killing myself..."

* As Buttercup is about to commit suicide by stabbing herself in the heart:

* When Inigo comes into the bedroom after Buttercup has tied up Humperdinck:

'''Westley''': Well, in that case... ''(falls over since he can't hold himself up)'' }}

* With the Grandson and Grandfather, after further reading has revealed that Buttercup marrying Humperdinck was [[All Just a Dream]]:

'''Grandfather''': Yes, you're very smart. Shut up. }}

* The hilariously anticlimactic "guide my sword" scene.
