Fun fact. During the shooting of this movie, when they had some time off, the crew went horseback riding and got caught in freezing rain on the way back. The woman that played Buttercup says that when Andre saw her shivering, he rested his hand on top of her head like a hat. She says that it warmed her up and kept the rain off surprisingly well, but on top of that, it made her feel safe, which she really appreciated.

[@bhelliom3]

I knew you would love the Prince's dialogue 😂 his casual delivery of "My wife to murder" in his to-do list kills me every time.

[@caralayne503]

“I’m swamped 🤷🏻‍♀️” 🤣😂

[@TheAbominableDrFaustus]

Chris Sarandon is great. Even his reaction when Westley describes “To the Pain” is hilarious.

[@bwilliams463]

Andre was suffering greatly by the time the film was made, but people who were close to him said that he really enjoyed doing it. The filmmakers had to resort to a few tricks with the camera to hide his increasing pain, such as having Andre stand with his feet is parallel trenches when Westley appears to be hanging on his back. Cary Elwes was actually walking behind Andre in those shots.

[@theshadowfax239]

He couldn't even carry Robin Wright in the end scene, they had to rig her up with rope and pulleys to hold her.

[@CameraManBlaise]

18:15 "...ah...buttercup. Jesus! I was thinking baby cakes." lol

[@corumhayes8178]

Jimmy cannot help but like the villains even when he doesn't know they're the villain.

[@PokeTheBunny]

When this came out, we went to see this in the theater having no idea what it was about. It was one of the few movies that had the entire theater cheering and I can't not watch it if it is on TV. Great reaction Jimmy!

[@iKvetch558]

LOL...I want to say that it is INCONCEIVABLE! that Jimmy has not seen this one yet...but it is actually very conceivable. 😜😂

[@doubleswords]

This is one of the most-quoted movies ever. Loved the amazing mix of action, comedy, hope and despair.

[@djcowell91]

Yep. Love to see someone appreciate Humperdink. When the Iocane powder is introduced as an odorless, tasteless poison and then the prince later shows up, smells the vial, and identifies it? LOVE IT!!

[@lizd2943]

Every line in this movie is delivered perfectly.

[@0okamino]

And that includes the impressive clergyman.

[@bobbuethe1477]

​@@0okaminoYou mean the impwessive cwergyman. 😅

[@0okamino]

@@bobbuethe1477 Vewiwy so.

[@XMachete]

Here's my popularity theory: It was one of the last movies that predates the culture splintering (meaning USA consumption of media through *relatively* few options). Movies like this got hefty replay on basic cable channels like USA and TNT. As you note, it's a good, enjoyable, campy romp. That made it easy to like and easy to rewatch. And it became a common piece of media in our shared experiences. I think this is one of the things Gen-X has more than any generation before or after it. The boomers had network TV but we had that plus cable. So we have a whole bunch of shows and movies that are cult classics just off widespread rewatch.

[@zachharris3040]

The Kevin Arnold slander is strong. I find the kid's disposition to be dynamic and necessary. It makes the ending so much better.

[@jerodast]

Jimmy has a thing about children not being obedient little robots :P

[@chand911]

Michael Scott also did the "Marriage" with a lisp bit at Phyllis' wedding. You may have been remembering that as well.

[@user-lg2jm9zg6l]

Still one of my favorites. So many memorable and memeable moments. Cary Elwes (farmboy) wrote a book, As You Wish, about filming the movie. The audiobook features many of the actors, producers, director of the film; it's great and also a glowing tribute to Andre, who had already passed.

[@WARdROBEPlaysWWII]

They did a great live reading of the script during the pandemic.

[@Spleen_Wort]

First rule of being a private mercenary: make friends out of enemies. That’s why they don’t kill each other. Because they are trying to protect their boss from retaliation from stronger forces.

[@rawkmode6315]

This movie has some of my favorite lines in it. "Ha! Your pig fiancée is too late!" "We are men of action, lies do not become us." "You've been mostly dead all day." I also think its funny how easily the Wesley could have killed both Inigo and Vizzini. Inigo literally hands his weapon over to Wesley while he's telling his story, and Vizzini immediately stops threatening Buttercup with his dagger when he's offered a game of wits to the death. Both of those character beats are oddly informative, with Inigo not really being a killer, and Vizzini not being as smart as he thinks he is. Fezzik, on the other hand, is someone who values fair play and honesty above all, which is reflected in his confrontation with Wesley. Aside from that, it should be noted that the book this was based on doesn't really have a happy ending. Fezzik's horse throws a shoe and he has to walk. Inigo's wounds get worse, and it's implied that he may not survive. Wesley and Buttercup have their kiss, but then have a, "What now?" realization since they've built each other up so much in their minds over the years, and reality can't ever match up to that. Prince Humperdinck recovers and puts together a posse to hunt them down....and that's where the book ends.

[@VOX_Games]

There's an alternate version of Deadpool 2 where Deadpool tells the story to grown up Fred Savage in the same room.

[@alexanderthegreat5649]

"Oh 1 more thing sir!" 😂😂 you know what I mean

[@thedoctor4327]

One of those films I don’t see often but when I do I lament that it wasn’t a bigger part of my childhood. So quotable and has a lot of charm 🙂

[@robertscott1949]

Since you recognized "Columbo" Peter Falk, did you also notice his Columbo reference at the end when he patted his vest looking for an imaginary pencil?

[@0okamino]

Imagine having him as a grandfather. Just when you think you got away with something… “Oh, uh, one more thing…” 😄

[@samfisher6606]

I highly recommend you look up behind-the-scenes stories about the making of this film. They are all hilarious. For instance, Wesley in the miracle Max scene is most a dummy because Carey Elwis couldn't stop laughing. Or the night before the scene on the hill, Elwis broke his ankle ATVing with Andre. There was that time Andre let out a 17-second fart on set and stopped production. Or the time the guy in the ROUS costume got pulled over by the police while wearing the costume.

[@lunagal]

Inigo Montoya’s & “You killed my father. Prepare to die” is the most famous line from the movie. 👍🏼

[@jerodast]

Mandy Patinkin vs his father's cancer. Yeah he's mad. Iconic.

[@ronweber1402]

Followed by "Have fun storming the castle." A favourite of punny parents since about 1990.

[@bobbuethe1477]

Once saw someone with a button that said "Hello. My name is Luke Skywalker. You are my father. Prepare to die."

[@truekingnate]

INCONCEIVABLE!

[@rolandcooke]

Now you know where all the memes come from.....

[@MarkMcLT]

So glad you know who Peter Falk is. Most reactors are sadly oblivious.

[@stevenwoods8463]

When I was a 12 year old boy I thought this was gonna be a boring movie based on the title. I was fucking wrong.

[@kreehomel]

Easily one of my favorite movies. Like Peter Falk says - it's got a little bit of everything. It's a comedy with one of the best sword fights ever made in it! What's not to love?

[@esinach]

LOL "Princess Babycakes".

[@ScottGibbs]

"I fucking hate this kid!" is not something I ever expected to hear during a reaction to this movie. LOL

[@anontay916]

Ooooh, would love you to react to Spinal Tap. Also directed by Rob Reiner and almost all improvised. Spinal Tap was among one of the first mockumentaries and inspired Ricky Gervais to create The Office. I think you’d really enjoy it. It’s also considered one of the funniest movies of all time.

[@WitchoftheNight]

I demand more Rob Reiner movies. This is Spinal Tap (1984) is probably my favorite.

[@ashwhikidd]

This is one of my all-time favorites since I was a kid! Also, the book was one of the funniest books I've ever read. It's not for everyone, but I loved it and laughed most of the way through it.

[@sallyatticum]

This is one of my son's favorite movies.... Babycakes, hahah. Prince Humperdink also was Jerry the Vampire in Fright Night.

[@Rainefaelyn]

My all time favourite movie. I know it's not everyone's cup of tea. But it never fails to make me laugh. It's comfort and nostalgia that covers all the entertainment bases. Even the camp is intentional and perfectly placed. This movie is a pivotal piece that gave birth to many movies throughout the decades. It is still informing many media genres. From memes to mainstream. eg GOT, Mountain vs Viper. GRRM is a huge Princess Bride fan. It is difficult to convey the importance that this movie had on the landscape of entertainment. To someone who is only now being introduced to it. At least not without ruining the experience.

[@MaybeRelative]

“Whoooo whoo hooooo… Look who knows so much…” -Miracle Max Love your reactions, bromigo. Keep on keeping on and Gritos from Tejas. Princess Baby cakes?!… I can never…

[@suncore598]

Jimmy Macram + The Princess Bride. Another fantastic combo!

[@dwarfchron801]

The giant rat in the Fire Swamp is still some of the greatest special effects work ever done.

[@TheAbominableDrFaustus]

Bro if you love Columbo, you should watch Murder By Death where Peter Falk plays a detective named Sam Diamond and he’s hilarious.

[@bobbuethe1477]

And Neil Simon's "The Cheap Detective," a parody of several of Humphrey Bogart's most famous films. Falk does a great Bogie.

[@TheAbominableDrFaustus]

@@bobbuethe1477 I was not aware of that. Him and Simon must have worked a lot together. It’s so weird you just sent this because I just found Murder by Death at the store for like 3 bucks like 4 minutes ago.

[@bobbuethe1477]

@@TheAbominableDrFaustus One of my faves. You have to have seen "Casablanca" and/or "The Maltese Falcon" to appreciate a lot of the gags. "The Big Sleep" helps, too.

[@TheAbominableDrFaustus]

@@bobbuethe1477 I’ve never seen Casablanca but I was thinking about watching it because I guess Claude Raines is in it? Maybe I’ll give it a look this week. I know it’s a classic but there’s just so many movies man.

[@jerodast]

You want someone to phone it in, get Kirk Cameron. You want someone to be a savage, you get Fred. ...Savage!

[@jerodast]

(from a commentary track that aired on ABC in 2011)

[@alexanderthegreat5649]

😂 random but Jimmy Columbo is 1 of my favorites as well! I think I'm a few yrs younger than you, but neither of us were actually watching it during it's run unless you caught those later years during the 90's. I still watch it regularly I've gone through it on the Peacock service(it has a lot of classics surprisingly) I'll even turn it to Great American Country in the mornings for their blocks of Columbo and Murder She Wrote episodes just to have playing. Sad we don't get those type of shows anymore I recently while watching an episode thought it'd be great to have an updated Columbo show! Even a spiritual sequel that gets what made the show great would be nice.

[@frogofbrass382]

For motivation in the movie, Mandy Patinkin imagined that the Six Fingered Man was the cancer that claimed his real father's life. Thus, the truly honest emotion behind the line, "I want my father back, you SOB."

[@russellward4624]

Im impressed you know Columbo. Didnt think you were old enough.

[@tamarleigh]

Have you seen Homeland? Mandy Patinkin (Inigo Montoya) is so great in it, costarring with Claire Danes. Excellent show, I think you’ll like it a lot. My 2nd favorite spy show after The Americans, it’s a very well written show with several great seasons and a great finale.

[@jerodast]

And for even more Mandy Patinkin, try _Dead Like Me_ although it's not everyone's cup of tea.

[@joshualincoln7191]

Just an FYI. You watch Bram Stokers Dracula last month. The actor who played Lucy’s fiance Arthur in Dracula played Wesley (Dread Pirate Roberts) in this movie. Carey Elwes is his name.

[@terrycullen3302]

Chris Sarandon (the Prince) is also great in a very different role in Dog Day Afternoon.

[@Mortigantoj]

He is also the voice of Jack Skellington 💀

[@AmericanMumReacts]

LOVE this movie! 💚

[@aboutthat1440]

Cool to see you here.

[@MonkeyFarmFrankenstein]

Man, if you like Chris Sarandon relishing a villain role, you have to see him in Fright Night 1985.

[@mikedignum1868]

One of the best sword fights on the cliffs.

[@goldenageofdinosaurs7192]

THE CLIFFS OF INSANITY!!!

[@Anonymiad]

ultimate classic flick

[@KimberlyAnnScheper]

As you wish

[@Ninaofthe90s]

hey Jimmy, how about uploading "The fifth element"? Yes, Cash didn't enjoy the movie and you didn't really pay attention the first thirty minutes. But you started to really enjoy it later on once you understood what kind of movie it is. So you could upload a reaction to the second half! 😁

[@mybatteryisdying1001]

Death… Taxes… Jimmy hating kids 😂

[@blotcho84]

What a classic :D

[@maralinekozial9131]

The fact that i literally saw a puppy & a ducky on the commercial before this video loaded made me happy enough to want to check this movie & reaction out!!!! I actually saw this film back in the day but was too busy spooning to pay attention to it!!!! Sometimes we need to have alot more control over things at the correct moment even tho we're men!!!!
