Me personally? I did not care for Game of Thrones.

The Princess Bride. Only USians care about that movie, which is absolutely not the most quotable movie (that goes to Commando).

    Woah I guess if the point of this post was unpopular takes, the Princess Bride DEFINITELY wins lmao. May you rest well, and dream of large women.

    In a US-filled environment for sure.

    I also don't think most movies Americans remember with nostalgia/familiarity are bad: It's a wonderful life is a masterpiece, wonderfully aged, surprisingly educational and with a masterful direction.

    The Princess Bride is just a mess. If sitcoms are comfort food, that is the cold pizza you forgot out of the fridge 2 days ago.

    Totally agree, thought the movie was incredibly mediocre and forgettable.

    Granted I watched it recently; so I was familiar with it.

    Maybe its just a function of it aging poorly, but even teh quotable parts...aren't as entertaining as the zeitgeist led me to believe.

    And the third act...woof, its like from another movie. So bad and incongruent with the beginning.

    Just poor movie.

    I think nostalgia and novelty when it was launched, is what is doing the majority of the lifting for this movie.
