Princess Bride Poster

TikTok has clued her into a lot of things she doesn’t remember, as fans upload old clips. \”It’s weird to find out things that I did when I was younger on TikTok. I’ll see people posting things of me, and I’m like, ‘I don’t even remember doing that,’\” she said.When everyone got together to watch the very first episode at a launch party, she cried over the way she was portrayed. \”I was like, ‘Oh my gosh. Everyone thinks I’m this bitch and I’m not. I’m seven!’\”I ran in my first road race since getting pregnant four years ago on Saturday. Tired from getting up at 6:15 a.m. after my son woke me up at 3 a.m., there was no way I would opt for trying out the decaf espresso shot at Starbucks. Instead, I sprung for the blonde.The former child star shared some of what her mom said to her during a recent interview on Emily Ratajkowski’s podcast, High Low With EmRata, revealing that during a panic attack last year, in the middle of which she called her mom, certain things from the past were dredged up. Just last year, she had a \”really bad\” panic attack. \”I called my mom and things were coming up from the past, and she apologized to me,\” Maddie revealed. \”She was like, ‘I’m so sorry that I put you through that.’ And it’s so sad, because she would never want to hurt us, but none of us knew how crazy it would get.\” Indeed, it was a tad lighter but still creamy and delicious. And I did come in fifth in my age group with a time comparable to my pre-baby races. Was it the extra shot of caffeine, my playlist or eight weeks of training? I’m not sure (though caffeine may help fuel a workout), but I think I have a new pre-race beverage. When she’s not writing, Sammi moonlights as an EMT. She also enjoys playing post-apocalyptic video games, attending Broadway musicals over and over, and adding new Taylor Swift tracks to her guitar repertoire. 24. “You can’t hurt me. Westley and I are joined by the bonds of love. And you cannot track that, not with a thousand bloodhounds, and you cannot break it, not with a thousand swords.”

Since she started so young, she barely remembers what life was like beforehand, sharing that she’s \”blocked out so much of my childhood that I actually don’t know what my life was like even just before working.\”The now-20-year-old picked up a lot of traits during her time on the show, many of which she says she’s trying to unlearn now. \”You have to be the best. If you don’t win, you’re not good,\” she gave as an example of the thought process she grew up with while dancing under Abby Lee Miller. \”It’s an ongoing battle.\”

That said, it might not be the best choice for everyone. For folks who love sweeter Starbucks beverages—Caramel Macchiato or the Double Chocolate Cream Frappuccino with whipped cream and chocolate syrup, for example—it might be best to stick with the less-sweet dark roast. And decaf is always a good option if it’s later in the day or if caffeine isn’t you friend.

Besides pop culture, she frequently covers beauty news and hacks, and is also passionate about human rights and climate change. She especially loves to explore the intersection of entertainment and social impact, proving that media can do both at once.39. “True love is the greatest thing in the world, except for a nice MLT, mutton, lettuce and tomato sandwich, when the mutton is nice and lean, and the tomato is ripe.”

As a mother of two, I’m powered by coffee—specifically Starbucks. My reward for making it through Saturday-morning soccer practice or swim lessons? A grande skinny vanilla latte that I get to drink hot while my husband drives (a treat for this mom). It’s creamy, just a little sweet and has two much-needed espresso shots.

Starbucks introduced blonde espresso in 2012. The blonde’s beans are roasted at a lower temperature for a shorter time than the dark roast, which makes for a smoother and lighter flavor. You might get nutty, citrus notes in a blonde roast versus the chocolate and caramel flavors in a dark roast.

Most viewers also assumed she was \”the most well-treated dancer,\” thanks to the editing, but she actually had some of the highest pressure on her shoulders. \”…she was like, ‘You’re my girl, so you have to lead everyone to victory every time,’ which is just not sustainable,\” she added.Sammi is a writer and editor on the breaking news team, where she covers celebrity gossip, viral TikTok videos, brand giveaways, and more; anything and everything trending!At the time, Maddie was too young to realize she could stand up for herself. In retrospect, she said, \”It helped me a lot to be able to be like, ‘I can say [no]. I can stand up for myself.’\”I tend to drink lighter roasts when I sip regular coffee in the morning because they’re less bitter and acidic. What I didn’t know? They may be lighter in flavor and color but not in caffeine. Blonde roasts have more caffeine. Why? The shorter roast time lets the beans hang onto more oil, which increases the caffeine content.

Finally, around 11 or 12 years old, Melissa was able to break their contract with the show. Maddie said her mom \”did everything\” to free them from the nearly 30-episode seasons, which \”consumed [their] lives.\”

You can choose from dark roast, blonde and decaf. Dark roast is the default, so if you don’t specify, your drink will be made with that. If you already adore your go-to Starbucks orders, you may not want to stir things up, but adventurous types might want to consider branching out.Beth Ann Mayer is a New York-based writer and brand strategist. Her bylines have appeared in Parents, Healthline, The Knot and USA Lacrosse Magazine. She is the co-founder of the content agency Lemonseed Creative. When she’s not writing or running, you can find her wrangling her two sons (Peter and Noah), two dogs, cat and husband, Pete.

Maddie recalled being \”perceived as a little brat in the first season\” because of the script that crew members gave her. \”When I was doing the show, in the first season I was seven, there were male producers saying, ‘This is what you have to say,’\” she explained. \”My mom wasn’t in the room, so I was like, ‘Okay, I just have to do whatever I’m being told.’ They would say, ‘Say you’re the best, say you’re better than everyone else, say blah blah blah.’\”Prepare for your mind to be scrambled by egg-cellent wordplay and yolk-tastic humor. These shell-arious puns will leave you and everyone you tell cracking up!

She earned her bachelor’s degree in Biology from Siena College, where she graduated with honors after publishing her thesis on the effects of Hollywood medical myths on emergency bystanders.37. “There’s a big difference between mostly dead and all dead. Please, open his mouth. Now, mostly dead is slightly alive. Now, all dead…well, with all dead, there’s usually only one thing that you can do.”

Wait…what? Seriously? Have you been missing anything by not knowing this news? How does changing an espresso shot impact your favorite Starbucks beverage?Guess what? Love is a major theme in The Princess Bride. In fact, it’s probably the most important theme of all, since it totally drives the action of the whole story and it’s the last thing mentioned as the book comes to a close. After all, this story would end almost immediately if Westley and Buttercup didn’t love one another so deeply. And Westley never would have pursued Buttercup up the Cliffs of Insanity, which means Buttercup would have been killed by Vizzini. Way different book, right?On top of all that, Goldman (the real one? the fake one? who knows…) truly believes (as he tells us several times) that high adventure and true love are two of the best things you could ever hope to find in a story. And we can’t help but agree with him.You’ve successfully purchased a group discount. Your group members can use the joining link below to redeem their group membership.

She moves complacently through her days, certain that she will never feel passion for anything or anyone again, but willing to go through the routines and rituals involved in becoming queen. The greatest factor in her decisions is a simple preference of life over death—she marries Humperdinck instead of opting for death, and she jumps into the shark-infested water rather than have her throat slit by Vizzini. Once she loses Westley after the Fire Swamp, she spends the rest of the story desperately trying to bring him back. In her essence, Buttercup is a common girl who also happens to be bold, passionate, and uncommonly beautiful, and in the end it is her beauty that moves the men who move the plot, not her wits or courage. The Buttercup in the book is less guarded, less rational, and more extreme but also charming. Buttercup’s parents were not included in the movie, but some of the book’s funniest lines come from family scenes like the one above. When the Count and Countess of Florin visit Buttercup’s family’s farm, it is clear that the Countess is attracted to Westley.

“I have not known a moment in years when the sight of you did not send my heart careening against my rib cage. I have not known a night when your visage did not accompany me to sleep. There has not been a morning when you did not flutter behind my waking eyelids.”

Buttercup gets jealous, and she is finally forced to acknowledge that she is in love with Westley. When her father praises Westley’s work on the farm, Buttercup exclaims that nothing Westley does is overly special. She blames her outburst on being tired, when it is really about her jealousy.

After Buttercup confesses her love to Westley in the middle of the night, he shuts the door in her face. The next day, she pretends as though she was just joking, and Westley says that he is leaving for America. He tells her that it is so he can better himself and have a fortune for them to share, because he loves her too. In the book, we obviously get more details and a longer love confession than in the movie.Inconceivable: Never has a single word become so famously associated with a film, and it’s thanks to actor Wallace Shawn and his distinct voice shouting it at least once every minute that his character, Vizzini, is on screen. In the book, the word is also a frequent fixture on the page, but the humor is strongest in the film.

Soon after being recaptured, Buttercup asks Humperdinck to give Westley a chance to object to their marriage before it happens. Humperdinck agrees, and promises to send four of his fastest ships in each direction with a letter on board to let Westley know of the impeding ceremony. What Buttercup does not know is that Westley is underneath the castle in the Zoo of Death, where he is being tortured by a man employed by Humperdinck. No ships went off to find him, and Westley is powerless to help.

The Man in Black is perceptive and knows that Vizzini is not as smart as he thinks himself to be, which is why he challenges him to a battle of wits. Though Vizzini could not have possibly won this battle (the Man in Black put poison in both goblets instead of just one) the scene when Vizzini tries to logically work out which cup is poisoned is hysterical.

“I told you there were not words invented yet to explain how great my brain is, but let me put it this way: the world is several million years old and several billion people have at one time or another trod upon it, but I, Vizzini the Sicilian, am, speaking with pure candor and modesty, the slickest, sleekest, sliest and wiliest fellow who has yet come down the pike.”Taken altogether, it’s clear there are countless fabulous quotes from The Princess Bride. May these wise words serve as a reminder to never give up on your goals (particularly if those goals involve killing the six-fingered man who murdered your father); to believe in the enduring power of love; and to steer clear of R.O.U.S..

There are so many instances throughout both the book and the movie when Vizzini asserts his superior intelligence. The first time this is contested is when Inigo exclaims in frustration that Vizzini does not use the word ‘inconceivable’ correctly, and the last instance is this above book quote. After defeating Inigo and Fezzik, the Man in Black encounters Vizzini, who has Buttercup in his grasp, with a knife pointed at her neck. He asserts that he is one step ahead of the Man in Black and thinks he knows his intentions. Before the Man in Black and Vizzini can battle each other, Vizzini again points out how smart he is.

The yelling out of this phrase is a turning point in both the book and the movie, because Buttercup is engaged to marry Prince Humperdinck. With Westley back, she knows that she cannot marry Humperdinck, and expects him to be as understanding as he seemed to be in the past. When he refuses, it is clear just how devious Humperdinck is, leading the rest of the plot to center on defeating him.

There is no shortage of fight scenes, monologues on love, or life-saving miracles in the text. The book was director Rob Reiner’s favorite as a child, and when a studio gave him the freedom to choose a film to make, he picked The Princess Bride. The 1987 film starring Robin Wright and Cary Elwes instantly became a beloved classic that is still widely watched more than thirty years later. The novel is celebrating its 46th anniversary this year, and to honor it, we compiled a list of our favorite Princess Bride quotes from both the book and the movie.

In the scene in which we meet Inigo (in both the film and the book), we learn that he has become an expert fencer and swordsman in an effort to avenge the death of his father. In the book, his father was killed by a six-fingered man in a fight over a sword that he commissioned, but refused to pay Inigo’s father for. Inigo moves throughout Europe to widen his chances of encountering this man, but to no avail. He worries that this man might already be dead, and his efforts will have been for nothing.Buttercup proves herself to be an underrated feminist icon in this quote from the book. While her extreme beauty is mentioned throughout the text previously, this is the first time Buttercup sticks up for her other attributes. This quote comes just after Buttercup realizes that the Man in Black is Westley, and the pair reunite.

Fans of both the film and the book know that when Westley said “As you wish” to Buttercup, he really meant “I love you.” In the beginning of the text, Westley repeats this phrase to Buttercup after every demand she makes, and Goldman notes that it was the only thing Westley ever said. When Buttercup is captured by the Man in Black, she believes that he is going to kill her or use her as a bargaining tool for ransom. She pushes him down a hill so she can escape, and as he rolls, the Man in Black yells out, “As you wish.” Buttercup immediately realizes that the Man in Black is really Westley.

This movie quote happens soon after the lovers reunite and are about to enter The Fire Swamp, which is filled with Rodents of Unusual Size (R.O.U.S.)—150-pound beasts who feed off of human blood. Before entering the swamp, which is the only way the pair think they can safely exit, Westley makes light of the situation by joking that they can make it through because they are in love. He continues to show his prowess by single-handedly fighting them off, all while telling Buttercup the story of the Dread Pirate Roberts to keep her calm.

“There’s different kinds of dead: there’s sort of dead, mostly dead, and all dead. This fella here, he’s only sort of dead, which means there’s still a memory inside, there’s still bits of brain. You apply a little pressure here, a little more there, sometimes you get results.”

Fezzik and Inigo take Westley’s body from the Zoo of Death after Humperdinck orders the maximum setting on the life-sucking machine. They bring him to Miracle Max, the recently fired healer from the castle. Max—who is played by Billy Crystal in the movie—and his wife Valerie (Carol Kane) serve as a comedic interruption to the seriousness of Westley’s death. While filming this scene in the movie, Crystal improvised so many funny lines that Cary Elwes, who plays Westley, cracked his rib trying not to laugh.
