Line 66 ⟶ 67:
* [[So Beautiful It's a Curse|So Beautiful, It's A Curse]]: Her beauty is enough to get her promoted to future queen, except the Prince threatens to kill her if she refuses. And he's planning to kill her anyway. In fact, if she were slightly less beautiful, the whole conflict wouldn't have happened.
** Slightly averted in the book, where he originally had every intention of going through with the marriage, until he came up with the plot to frame Guilder. He specifically says to Count Rugen that he wants a wife who is so insanely beautiful that the whole world will be jealous, which is why Rugen shows him Buttercup in the first place.
* [[The Ugly GuysGuy's Hot Daughter]]: Both of Buttercup's parents (who are not in the movie) are hilariously ugly. Lampshaded when it's said they don't know ''how'' they managed to produce such a beautiful child.
* [[World's Most Beautiful Woman]]: The book even explains ''how'' she became the worlds most beautiful woman.
 
Line 73 ⟶ 74:
* [[Badass Spaniard]]: Let's hope ''you'' didn't kill his father.
* [[Best Served Cold]]: His revenge against the six-fingered Count Rugen for [[You Killed My Father|killing his father]].
* [[Catch Phrase]]: "Hello. [[My Name Is Inigo Montoya]]. [[You Killed My Father]]. [[Prepare to Die]]."
* [[Catch Phrase]]:
** [[Hello]]
** [[My Name Is Inigo Montoya]] ([[Trope Namer]])
** [[You Killed My Father]] (almost [[Trope Namer]])
** [[Prepare to Die]] (not-really-but-kind-of [[Trope Namer]])
* [[Excuse Me, Coming Through]]:
{{quote|'''Inigo:''' Excuse me...excuse me... Fezzik, please?
'''Fezzik: EVERYBODY ''MOVE''!
'''(Crowd:''' *clears a path*)''
'''Inigo:''' Thank you. }}
* [[Fake Nationality]]: [[Mandy Patinkin]] is not from Spain.
* [[Good Scars, Evil Scars]]: Has classic good scars in the parallel slashes Rugen gave him to the face.
Line 198 ⟶ 195:
* [[The Storyteller]]
