"Cary Elwes Wasn’t Acting When He Got Hit In The Head In Princess Bride"
"In one scene in Princess Bride, Cary Elwes’ character Westley gets clonked on the head pretty hard by the six-fingered man, played by Christopher Guest.
But when it came time to film the scene, the stunt didn’t look realistic enough. So Elwes suggested that Guest knock him as hard as he could using a real metal sword.
"Because of the angle, we couldn't sell a fake blow well enough for the camera, so I told him to just hit me hard," Elwes wrote in his book, As You Wish.
"And that’s the last thing I remember. I woke up in the hospital.""

there is one of the best scenes missing:
in the first Indiana Jones (raiders of the lost ark) from 1981, Harrison Ford had diarrhea and was only able to stay ten minutes on the set.
So, the swordsmen came, a fight was planned, but he just shot him.
Luckyly the swordsman reacted fast and right

Eliphalet, Close -
"The famous scene in which Indy shoots a marauding and flamboyant swordsman was not in the original script. Harrison Ford was supposed to use his whip to get the sword out of his attacker's hands, but the food poisoning he and the rest of the crew had gotten made him too sick to perform the stunt. After several unsuccessful tries, Ford suggested "shooting the s#cker". Steven Spielberg immediately took him up on the idea, and the scene was successfully filmed."

Please, please stop capitalizing every word in an explanation. It's confusing and "ungrammatical." But otherwise, I liked this article.

Prissy,
I agree absolutely
#27 is an extreme example, hoe NOT to do it
that's Wikipedia style. If I want to (re)name a movie correctly, I use the notepad for editing my copy and paste.
Also the - is in Wikipedia a special sign.
I'm WaItInG FoR ThE DaY, They (sorry, if I stop, but it hurts me even to write like that) start mixing capitals in every word
I agree absolutely
