A quote-along with The Princess Bride? As you wish! Join us for an inconceivable evening with Buttercup, Westley, Miracle Max, Prince Humperdinck and the rest. This fairy tale has everything you look for in a good story-a beautiful princess, an evil prince, swashbuckling swordfights, Billy Crystal dressed as a decrepit-looking warlock, the kid from The Wonder Years and more. As with all of our quote-alongs, we will screen The Princess Bride with subtitles on, so you’ll know exactly when to say: "My name is Inigo Montoya, you killed my father, prepare to die!" So come get rowdy with us as we cheer for True Love, hope for those who are mostly dead and keep an eye out for Rodents of Unusual Size. Inflatable swords will be provided for the first 100 people through the door!
Hosted by funny man Thomas Rivas.
