She got married to Sean Penn. She's now credited as Robin Wright Penn. She is still in the occasional movie. White Oleander, Unbreakable, Forest Gump (Jenny), etc.

"He didn't fall! Inconceivable!"

Inigo Montoya : You are wonderful.
Man in Black : Thank you; I've worked hard to become so.
Inigo Montoya : I admit it, you are better than I am.
Man in Black : Then why are you smiling?
Inigo Montoya : Because I know something you don't know.
Man in Black : And what is that?
Inigo Montoya : I... am not left-handed.
[Moves his sword to his right hand and gains an advantage]
Man in Black : You are amazing.
Inigo Montoya : I ought to be, after 20 years.
Man in Black : Oh, there's something I ought to tell you.
Inigo Montoya : Tell me.
Man in Black : I'm not left-handed either.
[Moves his sword to his right hand and regains his advantage]

Inigo: I do not mean to pry, but you don't, by any chance, happen to have six fingers on your right hand?
Westley: Do you always begin conversations this way?
Vizzini: You fell victim to one of the classic blunders. The most famous is: "Never get involved in a land war in Asia." But, only slightly less well known is this: "Never go in against a Sicilian, when death is on the line!"
Prince Humperdinck: Surrender!
Westley: You mean you wish to surrender to me? Very well, I accept.

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.

Inigo: Hello, my name is Inigo Montoya. You killed my father, prepare to die... now, offer me money.
Count Rugen: Yes!
Inigo: Power too. Promise me that!
Count Rugen : All that I have and more! Please...
Inigo Montoya : Offer me everything I ask for.
Count Rugen : Anything! Anything you want.
Inigo Montoya : I want my father back, you son of bitch.
Oh man, best scene ever.

The #1 reason to watch Dead Like Me. #2 being the rest of the cast, who all rock equally.
Princess Bride rocked me.

I encourage anyone who has seen this movie to read the book, as it explains the backrounds of each character, plus it kicks ass.

This was my favorite childhood movie.
FANTASTIC movie. Easily one of my all-time favourites. The commentary on the special edition DVD is pretty decent as well.
I also own the book and enjoyed that too. It gives a lot of background to each of the major characters and even ends with a tease about a sequel. (But you know it was all in jest)
Still, I think I enjoyed the movie more in this case. Elwes was totally the fucking man in it...as he was in Robin Hood: Men in Tights, which SERIOUSLY needs a DVD release.

Rube is definitely the #1 reason to watch that show. I fucking love his character.

He's such an asshole, yet he plays it off with stride. You want to see him play the asshole, and when he's not one, he's the most mysterious character of the show and you just want to know everything about him. I think two episodes ago (where Rube got an undelivered package of money) is an indicator of something to look out for. I see Rube really developing.

It is appreciated!
I JUST bought the special edition DVD a week ago 
I remember seeing the film many, many years ago, and I of course thought it was absolutely great. But I didn't know the title, so I imagined I would never find it again. But then, a year ago or so, one of my friends convinced me to see this "fantastic" movie over at his, and as I watched, it all came back again. Was I ever happy that day
