Game of Thrones/Princess Bride Mix

Uproxx has a knack for posting great fan-made film and tv parodies, tributes, and similar labors of love. In the middle of March, they shared yet another gem: Peter Falk's reading The Princess Bride to Fred Savage, but blended into HBO's hit series, Game of Thrones. As with many PB-related things, it's great, and it would be great even if all it did was remind me of this excellent film:


I haven't seen HBO's hit series yet - although I am starting to watch it, as my new roommates are full-on fanatics - but I know that little blond bugger plays a total bastard on the show. And, of course, like all right-thinking people, I love and adore The Princess Bride. The two work quite well together, like chocolate and peanut butter. Cheers to YouTube user CinestirTV, for this finely-made clip!

  1. Ha, surprisingly appropriate. Love the soundbite from the lisped priest at the end.

    1. Oh yeah! There must be more than a few GoT fans out there who are kicking themselves for not thinking of this first...
