"Hello…my name is Inigo Montoya…you killed my father…prepare to die!"

Inigo Montoya is one of the most iconic characters in the most quotable movie of all time, The Princess Bride. His father, a swordmaker, was killed by a six-fingered man when Inigo was just a child, and he dedicated his entire life to the study of fencing to avenge his father's death. Inigo might be my favorite character in a movie full of great characters. If they ever decide to remake The Princess Bride, heaven help us, for the apocalypse cannot be far behind.
