I fell victim to one of the classic blunders (drawing a load of fan art when I should have been working)

This is true love. You think this happens every day?

You want to know why Inigo Montoya remains such an iconic and beloved character even 35 years after the Princess Bride came out?

It's because he's one of the few characters in fiction who has a story where he has dedicated his life to revenge, his whole motivation is about getting revenge....and he gets it! and then he isn't empty or despairing! he doesn't regret it! he's totally satisfied!

because so many stories about revenge or rage are about characters "seeing the futility of their actions" or learning "their desire for revenge has only made them the monsters they hated" FUCK THAT.

Inigo Montoya kills the man who kills his father, is allowed to live in the narrative after and be happy about it and it is so satisfying. it's fantastic. it's iconic.

let more characters rage against the world, bring it down with bloodied hands, and let them be FUCKING RIGHT about it. Let them celebrate their success with sharp grins, and let them live happy, full lives where they always remain proud/fulfilled for what they've done

"Hello. My name is Inigo Montoya. You killed my father. Prepare to die."

The Princess Bride (1987)

[spinchling]

The two most romantic lines in cinema history are "As you wish" from the Princess Bride and "I can fix that" from Holes.

Oh Legolas/Gimli this, and Merlin/Arthur that... y'all are missing the TRUE medieval fantasy are-they-friends-or-are-they-more dynamic pairing:

i am right and will accept no arguments

[thegroundhogdidit]

the funniest thing about the princess bride both in the book and the movie is that inigo is going off on tangents left and right, claiming that the scream they heard had to have been the man in black for no reason other than he should probably be in emotional agony right now, resurrecting him as soon as he finds the man dead, and launching a massive plot to break into the castle and kill the man who killed his father while also getting the woman he helped kidnap to not marry the prince and this whole time fezzik is just like. "well. my husband is losing it. but he's been right about everything so far so we might as well keep going idk"
