Silmaril

<I>The Princess Bride</I> is, obviously, one of my favorite movies. LoTR beats PB out in terms of epic film-making, drama, and special effects (the sound effects for the ROUS in PB are really Ron Howard growling into a mircophone!); but PB definitley trumps LoTR in terms of pure humor. (now, before anyone argues, I know that LoTR was not made to be funny, while PB was) Even though PB will never stand up to LoTR in the traditional sense of rating movies, they are equally wonderful in my book!
