"Hello, my name is Inigo Montoya. You killed my father, prepare to die."

Mandy Patinkin's oh-so-memorable, oft-repeated line from "The Princess Bride" is directed solely at Christopher Guest's Count Tyrone Rugen, but a few cinematically challenged passengers on a recent Qantas flight to New Zealand can't tell a Patinkin from a Taliban.

According to Stuff, Kiwi/film buff Wynand Mullins started a minor kerfuffle on his flight to Aukland when he wore a t-shirt with the quote on it, the "Prepare to die" part not sitting well with some in coach who hadn't seen Rob Reiner's 25-year-old cult classic.

"The flight attendant said to me: ‘Are you able to remove it because some of the passengers are quite intimidated by it,'" Mullins said. "I thought it was all a bit silly. The person next to me was laughing, because they knew the movie."
