Wa Hoo!
Same here. Though I think I was either 1 or 2 at the time. Course, once it came out on video, I watched it non-stop, along with Labyrinth and Legend. I really do have to get around to picking up on DVD.

No film with Stephen Fry, Walter Matthau and Tim Robbins can be all bad.
And there are some movies that will live on for decades. Who cares about, say, The Core or Big Momma's House 2, to name a couple that outgrossed Serenity and The Princess Bride.
The sooner the market is orientated towards films you want to own on disc forever, rather than movies you don't mind watching in a theatre full of rowdy teens, the better.

Stephen Fry?
Now I gotta watch it again. I never even spotted him. Nobody tell me, I wanna find him myself.
My favorite line: "I don't even exercise."

My favorite line: "Hello. My name is Inigo Montoya. You killed my father. Prepare to die!"
Just can't get over that one.

What it says in the commentary is more or less that any movie that crosses genres, as both it and Serenity did, is doomed to do badly in theaters because they don't know how to advertise it and when the guy was talking about that I felt like he was describing the problems Serenity and Firefly had wrt advertising perfectly.
The two movies are more alike than one would think.

My mother's favorite line is, I think, "Why don't you give me a paper cut and pour lemon juice on it." I don't really have a favorite line, I love the whole movie. And, for the record, I didn't see it in theaters either, I was two at the time.

To clarify, Stephen Fry was in IQ, the movie Chris was quoting from. He's also in QI which is even funnier.

I just love love love that the Browncoats are also so keen on the Princess Bride. This was without a doubt my favorite movie growing up.
Simon: We got cancelled? Inconceivable!
Mal: You keep using that word. I do not think it means what you think it means.

Inigo Montoya: Is very strange. I have been in the revenge business so long, now that it's over, I don't know what to do with the rest of my life.
Westley: Have you ever considered piracy? You'd make a wonderful Dread Pirate Roberts.
