Movies I've Seen Recently

Hello everyone! Been a little while since I posted again, so i figured I'd talk about some movies I've seen recently.

The Princess Bride

I had not seen the film The Princess Bride before last Sunday. I did enjoy it when I watched it though. I understand some of the references from other media to this film now. For example, in the show The Big Bang Theory, there's an episode where the guys learn fencing. Howard and Raj keep repeating the line "Hello. My name is Inigo Montoya. You killed my father. Prepare to die." and variations of it multiple times.

I liked this movie. 9/10, because nothing's perfect.

Muppet Treasure Island

Now, this movie isn't as good as the other Muppets literary adaptation, and coming from someone who hasn't read Treasure Island or seen any other adaptations of it, that's probably not saying much, but it certainly is a fun movie. I enjoyed it and its soundtrack and Tim Curry. What I didn't enjoy was the kid who played Jim Hawkins. I mean, come on, if you're gonna cast a kid, make sure he can at least sing a little bit. This kid couldn't. I honestly like the original draft's idea of Gonzo and Rizzo playing two separate characters named Jim and Hawkins better, why didn't they go with that?

Also the Star Trek reference at the beginning was funny. 9/10 again, I know I rated it 3 stars on Letterboxd but now that I've sat on it it's better than that.
