I already know that today is going
to be uneventful. We walk in to the
classroom and it’s dark already. The
movie is all ready to go. I put my
things down and immediately go over and make myself coffee. Scratch that.
I forgot I have to scribe today. I
run back to my seat. The movie has
already started. I’m sure I’m being very
distracting. Oh well, I’m sure everyone
is so absorbed in the movie that they don’t notice me asking Amelia to make me
coffee. I busy myself with getting out
my laptop to begin my task. Everyone is
making comments about Rugen’s six fingers.
Thank you for pointing that out, I don’t think I would have been able to
tell, especially with that dramatic close-up of his right hand. I’m really glad I have such attentive
classmates.
The movie progresses
uneventfully. Westley is taken to the
Pit of Despair and is prepped for torture by the albino. There are a few laughs at the utter
ridiculousness of the whole thing.
Amelia brings me my cup of coffee.
I didn’t think she’d actually bring it.
I love it when people do what I tell them. The movie continues to roll. Buttercup has nightmares and Humperdinck is
annoying. Jack gets up to make
coffee. No one is surprised. Rugen begins torturing Westley. No one reacts. Humperdinck continues to be ridiculous and
annoying. Adam laughs. See, I told you it wasn’t a girl movie. The movie continues. Fezzik and Inigo are reunited and it’s really
cute. Nina makes a comment about the
romantic music playing during the scene.
Adam says they looked like they were about to kiss and it was
weird. He’s right. While Fezzik and Inigo plan to find the man
in black, Nina does other homework. Meredith
is eating and no one is surprised. But
it’s just getting good! Buttercup tells
Humperdinck he’s a coward and Humperdinck gets really pissed off. Westley is tortured and no one cares. Inigo and Fezzik search for Westley. I wish I had coffee left. There’s a super dramatic moment when Inigo is
trying to find the opening to the Pit.
Again, there is no reaction from the class. Does anyone like this movie? This is like my favorite movie of all
time. I hope people are enjoying
it.
Miracle Max is one of my favorite parts of this whole
movie. Finally, he gets a few
laughs. Yes, this is the best part of
the whole thing. Max and Valerie are two
of my favorite characters ever. This
movie is just so flawless. The amount of
sass is wonderful.
There are a few scattered laughs
and a few whispered comments. Nothing
notable really happens. The movie goes
on. Inigo, Fezzik, and Westley plan to
storm the castle. Buttercup and
Humperdinck are at the wedding. The
lisping clergyman gets a few laughs.
Fezzik is on fire and Buttercup gets married. Inigo finally finds Rugen. Rugen runs away. Fezzik smashes a door. Westley disappears. Everyone laughs when Buttercup tells the king
she’s going to kill herself and he, not hearing her, tells her that’ll be
nice. Finally, a reaction!
The movie goes on. Nothing happens. Buttercup is going to kill herself. Westley tells her she has perfect breasts and
Adam laughs. He’s the only one. Inigo kills Rugen after some dramatic
swordfighting. Jack applauds. Humperdinck finds Westley and Westley
explains the term “to the pain.” Westley
stands up and it’s really impressive.
They tie up Humperdinck and everyone is reunited. Fezzik shows up with Humperdinck’s
horses. There are scattered laughs and
various comments. Inigo doesn’t know
what to do with his life after killing Rugen and Westley suggests piracy. They all ride off into the sunset and
everyone lives happily ever after.
There’s a kissing part. Kory
thinks the grandfather is Westley. Mrs.
Gill starts talking about purpose again.
We discuss how much we quote the Princess Bride. I know I do that quite a bit. Adam admits that he liked the movie. I knew he would. I’m always right. (Not really, that’s such a lie. I don’t know why people think that.) We talk about the exam briefly as everyone is
leaving. I wish I could stay here
forever instead of going to physics.
