In this episode of Spiraken Movie Review, Xan is joined by Lu and his wife Liz as they review a 80's fantasy story that we all know and love. So sit back and relax as they review 1987's, The Princess Bride directed by Rob Reiner and starring Cary Elwes, Mandy Patinkin, Chris Sarandon, Christopher Guest, Wallace Shawn, Andre The Giant, Billy Crystal, Carol Kane, and Peter Falk Note, we recorded this before the new year, so there are a few out of date statements. I do apologize for the lateness but Life happens. Anyway, While we review this nostalgic film, there is also discussion about Andre The Giant's wrestling career, why recasting a modern day remake with the cast of "It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia" would be hilarious and why "Haywire the Series" is an awesome Post Apocalyptic revenant series. Also stay tuned till after the ending credits for an interesting stinger about Japanese culture (NSFW) and the best scenes of the film performed by several talented voice actors. ----more---- Please send us any comments concerns and ideas on how to make this podcast better.
