This week on Xtra Butta, Cam & Dylan finally tackle the most quoted movie of all time: The Princess Bride.
You know it. You love it. You can't stop saying the lines. We break down how this movie somehow pulls off romance, action, comedy, parody, and comfort-food vibes all at once while also gaslighting an entire generation into thinking sword fights and true love are normal life skills.
We talk Westley's unmatched “as you wish” levels of devotion, Buttercup's all-time elite stress decision-making, and Inigo Montoya delivering one of the cleanest revenge arcs in cinema history (six fingers still catching strays). Plus: the logic of the poison scene, the absolute chaos of the Fire Swamp, and why every single side character feels like the main character.
Is this the most rewatchable movie ever? Why does it hit harder the older you get? And how did a movie this unserious become so emotionally bulletproof?
Inconceivable? Nah. That's just Xtra Butta doing what it does best.
