Seriously, I do not understand what people like about this movie. I just tried watching it again to see if my opinion would change, but it's just downright boring. The one-liners are funny one time. "Inconceivable!" is funny once, maybe twice. Same with "You killed my father, prepare to die." I just don't see what's so great about this movie.

Agreed.

It isn't the "Inconceivable!" that's funny; it's Inigo's reply to hearing it once too often that's funny.

Again, that's not the funny part. "Stop saying that!" is the funny part.

Indeed.
shareI know I'm several years late on this.
I like TPB and have seen it several times. I've even read the book. But to those who don't get it, I get what you're saying. There's been movies where seemingly everyone loves them and I don't. I've posted on some boards back when IMDB was thing to ask what it was I wasn't getting. People always assumed I was bashing the movie they loved. No. I just wanted to understand so that maybe I could like it too.
I don't get Wes Anderson movies. I don't understand his appeal. But I have a friend who loves them but he can't explain to me what it is that he loves about them. I didn't understand all the love for Frozen. I thought Tangled was a much better and more layered film. And no one could explain what it was that I was missing about Frozen. So I've just had to chalk it up to those movies don't appeal to me for whatever reason and go on. But I would still really like to know what makes those movies so appealing to others and understand what it is they like about them even if that doesn't change my opinion.
