Which movie is it? You can't leave a review like that without a title!

The Princess Bride! Sorry, I guess in my head it was inconceivable that everyone wouldn't already know it.

[-] Encode1307@lemm.ee 50 points 1 year ago

You keep using that word. I don't think it means what you think it means

The eggs were too thick or the swimmers were weak.

[-] elbarto777@lemmy.world 5 points 1 year ago

You can conceive plans and conceive ideas. So inconceivable fits here.

Now, to be fair, I rarely hear it use this way in English. In Spanish, though. All the time. "You haven't seen this movie? Inconcebible!"

I know you were.

[-] bouh@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

I check a dictionary and it seems to be a good word. Maybe slightly off compared to impossible for example but not a mistake.

What would inconceivable mean otherwise?

Inconceivable is a popular line from the movie and so is the comment above you

[-] bouh@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

Oh! I saw it in another language so I didn't have that ref

[-] undeffeined@lemmy.ml 5 points 1 year ago

Never seen this movie, should I?

You absolutely should. It's goofy, fun, and extremely quotable. Bonus points if you have kids to rope into watching it with you.

[-] Ookami38@sh.itjust.works 4 points 1 year ago

Depends. Do you like great movies? If not, probably skip it

I've never met someone who watched it and didn't love it.

[-] protist@mander.xyz 13 points 1 year ago

No, this is clearly Saw

[-] athos77@kbin.social 6 points 1 year ago

You misspelt Dances with Wolvesheads.

Bury my heart at wounded knee

[-] Prunebutt@feddit.de 31 points 1 year ago

The Princess Bride

[-] danieljoeblack@kbin.social 12 points 1 year ago

You're in for quite a treat my friend

[-] SnipingNinja@slrpnk.net 1 points 1 year ago

Strange name for a movie, only if because of how long it is

[-] ivanafterall@kbin.social 4 points 1 year ago

Dear Zachary. It's a really sweet little film!

[-] Seraph@kbin.social 34 points 1 year ago

Obligatory "you should go read Tress of the Emerald Sea" post

Similar story but with badass heroine. Would love to see it get made into video!

[-] BedbugCutlefish@lemmy.world 11 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

I actually really hated the book, which was a big surprise to me, since I love Princess Bride and most of Sanderson. But man, the narrator was way more grating and unfunny to me than Princess Bride's.

Sanderson usually isn't funny for me, which is usually fine, but Tress relied on humor too much imo

[-] Seraph@kbin.social 12 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Sorry to hear you didn't like it! I rather enjoy Hoid/Wit's perspective but maybe that's because I knew him before I read Tress?

Edit: If you do not care for Sanderson's humor avoid Alcatraz vs the Evil Librarians, it relies on it heavily!

[-] BedbugCutlefish@lemmy.world 6 points 1 year ago

I've read all of cosmere, and I don't care for Hoid in general, though there's a lot about his books I do love. But I tried a few of his YA books (the chalk one, and reckoners) and didn't especially care for them.

[-] Rockyrikoko@lemm.ee 31 points 1 year ago

Is this a kissing movie?!?

[-] ace_garp@lemmy.world 16 points 1 year ago

A friend gave me the board game last week, randomly without knowing if I like the movie.

Of course I am eagerly anticipating the first playthrough.

It's just assumed that everyone likes this movie. We're not monsters.

[-] NakariLexfortaine@lemm.ee 4 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

My spouse and I have played a couple times. Everything's decently made, we've had fun with just us, but I can see where having the full 4 would be the best experience.

Can't speak of the solo play. Kinda tempted to set the game up and throw the movie on for it one day, though.

[-] athos77@kbin.social 12 points 1 year ago

And a note for anyone who missed it, most of the original cast got together for a virtual table read of the script during the pandemic.

[There's also a pandemic home movie version with a whole bunch of actors.]

[-] Arotrios@kbin.social 8 points 1 year ago

My app is handling this link to kbin strangely, but I can see it.

I haven't counted my fingers in a while, but it's possible.

[-] Arotrios@kbin.social 4 points 1 year ago

Here's a more more direct route if you're one of Dread Roberts' crew... just posted it over on the @13thFloor to preserve the link in case any of the mods here were Humperdinck agents looking for volunteers to test the Pit of Despair.

[-] Arotrios@kbin.social 4 points 1 year ago

Almost forgot to mention - just a heads up re: the finger thing - I think @InigoMontoya is looking for you...

[-] owatnext@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

I love this movie. I love the book. I love everything about it.
