La Princesa Prometida

So for tomorrow I have to summarize a movie in Spanish for my class.  When thinking through some old favorites, I of course stumbled upon a classic… The Princess Bride.  Man, what a good movie!  I love it.  And the best part is its not too complicated so I should be able to explain it in Spanish.  I wish I could translate quotes because some of them are just so funny!  But since I can’t… here they are in English…

Miracle Max: Have fun stormin' da castle.
Valerie: Think it'll work?
Miracle Max: It would take a miracle.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

Miracle Max: You rush a miracle man, you get rotten miracles.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

Inigo Montoya: He's right on top of us. I wonder if he is using the same wind we are using.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

Vizzini: HE DIDN'T FALL? INCONCEIVABLE.
Inigo Montoya: You keep using that word. I do not think it means what you think it means.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

Inigo Montoya: That Vizzini, he can *fuss*.
Fezzik: Fuss, fuss... I think he like to scream at *us*.
Inigo Montoya: Probably he means no *harm*.
Fezzik: He's really very short on *charm*.
Inigo Montoya: You have a great gift for rhyme.
Fezzik: Yes, yes, some of the time.
Vizzini: Enough of that.
Inigo Montoya: Fezzik, are there rocks ahead?
Fezzik: If there are, we all be dead.
Vizzini: No more rhymes now, I mean it.
Fezzik: Anybody want a peanut?
Vizzini: DYEEAAHHHHHH.
