I mean besides just STANDING there, she then manages to fall over and get her foot stuck in the ROUS's mouth. LOL. But I sooooo heart this movie! I feel like it raised me I watched it so many times. True story...I named the love interest in my novel Ryan because of this movie--Im obsessed with the way Westley gives his speech "I am not the Dread Pirate Roberts, my name is Ryan..." I totally know what you mean about writing ruining things, but after awhile you kind of just turn it off and go with the flow...sometimes...here and there...Frankie Diane Mallishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06066659801542129040noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2762330519599483179.post-72153909723512048222010-09-09T16:28:16.671-04:002010-09-09T16:28:16.671-04:00It's a syndrome, indeed!

And I still love it, but looking at it now, it suffers from Twilight-syndrome. <br /><br />Buttercup is just too Bella for me. A bland, boring, empty vessel which all young girls can live vicariously through because she has no unique qualities (besides beauty). She can represent everyone because she is so generic. <br /><br />Also, in the beginning, she's a total bitch who delights in ordering Wesley around. Why would he fall for her, besides wanting to get her in bed? <br /><br />It's just true love, I guess. We can't question motives or desires when it's true love!<br /><br />I still love the movie, but Buttercup is my least favorite character in the film. The miracle workers have always been my favorite.

Well, it has changed how I ...Oh yes yes yes indeed. Well, it has changed how I read at least. I find myself rewriting clunky lines in my head. I had to skip most of your post cos I need to read this book and I'm trying to forget the plot after watching the film years ago and I like to be surprised, but a wussy female character can really ruin any good story for me, tv book or otherwise. Something has to be REALLY good and I have to be unable to figure out how the writer/directer has done it in order for me to love something.Rhiannon Harthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03611927348379723038noreply@blogger.com
