Greatest Of All Time Week: The Princess ...

The Salty Nerd
About this episode

The Princess Bride movie review has the Salty Nerds declaring Wuv, Twoo Wuv for this classic movie.  

A story about adventure, intrigue, and romance, The Princess Bride is probably one of the most quotable movies ever made.  Based on William Goldman's novel and directed by Rob Reiner, the movie is about a poor farm boy who becomes a legendary pirate in order to win the hand of his true love, who also happens to be betrothed to an evil Prince who wants to kill her in order to start a war.  Now, the farm boy must team up with a Spanish duelist and a giant in order to save her - all while skipping the "kissing stuff."  

Starring Cary Elwes, Mandy Patinkin, Robin Wright, Christopher Guest, Fred Savage, Peter Falk, and Andre the Giant, this fantastical story is considered to be one of the greatest movies ever made (at least according to the Salty Nerds).  If you love this fantasy movie as much as the Nerds do, you're not going to want to miss this review.

The Guest (2014)
The Guest is nothing like the movie I thought it'd be. It's one of those movies where the name is so generically boring that someone asks you "Have you seen The Guest?" and you respond "Sure", thinking you've seen it but you're actually thinking of The Others, The Nun, The Grudge ... Show More
