    Meh, great movie, and yes there’s pirates, but I wouldn’t consider it pirate-themed personally

      I mean, the main character, Westley, is literally The Dread Pirate Roberts. And there’s swashbuckling, sailing, and a ragtag group of outlaws who come together despite all odds to fight the crown and take it’s treasure (Buttercup).

      That’s a pirate movie.

        I’m not taking away from your very valid points, but I feel like a pirate adventure has to spend a majority of its time at sea on ships and The Princess Bride does not.

        It does, however, make an excellent Land Pirate movie.
