Out of curiosity, was "Princess Bride" a hit at the box office or a miss that amassed a great cult following like "Buckaroo Banzai"?

Has anyone read the book on which the film was based? I think there are like two different versions, an original and a "good parts" version.

You know, if they were making TPB now, it would probably star Orlando Bloom or some WB boy as Westley (played by Cary Elwes originally) and some underfed girl as a tougher, more feminist type Buttercup (originally Robin Wright Penn).
