Pirates of the Caribbean

[lizardbit]

I am a HUGE Johnny Depp fan, so chances are I'll see it and love it..lol. I loved the first one and can't wait for the second and third. Depp is an amazing actor and as long as he is in the others it will be awesome. They have to keep the original actors all the way through, it won't be the same without the original actors. Although since the second one isn't due out until 2006, I am patiently awaiting the Charlie and the Chocolate factory remake with Mr.Depp..lol.

Geeze, where have I been? I didn't even know there was a 2 and 3 one coming out.... wow. I'll have to be sure to see them!

I wasn't aware a third one was coming out!? Oh please no... I'm worried enough about the second one! Disney is known for slaughtering movies with their acursed sequels!

*catches breath* But I loved Pirates, Jack Sparrow was just the best. Barbossa was a great bad guy, and it was so filled with amazing action scenes and humour. I am forever against Lord of the Rings for stealing the awards from Pirates. Any fool can make lots and lots of people come over a hill graphically, it takes TRUE genius to evenly make people turn into skeletons in moonlight and make them clearly go through it without any glitches at all. PIRATES RULE!

I agree with the fact that Disney slaughters movies with sequels.......
thats mostly because they don't leave the movies so they can have a sequel....
where can it go, But i do love the graphics..........

I'll prolly see them, I guess. ~shrugs~

Im sorry to burst everyones bubble but i thought this was an awful film, i really did. I respect that everyone else likes it but it was just so poor, i admit that some of the characters where good but the whole story was not good. I expected a long voyage into the open seas and lots of other good stuff.

I loved this movie! My teacher at school liked to bring in movies sometimes for us to watch and this was one of them. After watching it at school I went out and bought it! Can't wait for 2 and 3!!

Amazing movie. Looking forward to the next one a lot.

All pirates are cool.....

"I'm disinclined to acquiesce to your request - means no." One of the greatest lines in movies!

That and, "Well, at least you've heard of me."

Great movie, can't wait for 2 & 3.

Pirates rule....

PotC was a lot of fun Not too intellectually challenging, but so entertaining that I didn't care. Whoever says it's rubbish has completely missed the point of it lol.

Not intellectually challenging? I'm sorry, but there's a lot of history in Pirates. Try the DVD and you'll see why. The characters portrayed in the film such as Captain Jack Sparrow originate in historical stories about various pirates who sailed the seven seas. Also note that the British ruled the Carribean once, which is also very well portrayed in the film. Alright, it may not be high intellect stuff but history is the pursuit of intellectual academics nonetheless.

I loved that film, I watch the dvd...and I must say a certain two male leads don't hurt I'll probably watch the sequel...and then wish I could have the time back after realising it's just as bad as the other sequels by Disney!

POTC is one of my all-time favourite movies! I think I've memorized most of the lines, it's just pure old-fashioned fun at the movies. Nobody said movies have to be intellectual, sometimes you just want to be entertained, and POTC never fails to do so. Johnny Depp just completely steals the show, he was robbed of an Oscar! I fully believe that in 10 years people will still be watching POTC, but will have forgotten all about Mystic River. Not that I don't think Sean Penn is talented (he is!), but Johnny Depp created a truly memorable character in Capt Jack Sparrow.
Johnny Depp, Keira Knightley, and Orlando Bloom have all signed on for the sequel. I heard rumours that they're filming 2 & 3 at the same time. I sincerely hope that they're good sequels, otherwise I will be so very disappointed.
Drink up me hearties!

"Avast!"

"He was a pirate, and a good man."

Yeah of course, I know the historical detail was spot on because last year I researched the history of piracy and Port Royal as the basis for some stories I was writing. What I meant was that the storyline demanded nothing from the viewer - it was pure fantastical enjoyment. I've got to disagree about the authenticity of Jack Sparrow's character, though - real pirates of the era were probably not so good or amusing people; they were the terrorists of the time.

Without a doubt the best line! I was pleasantly surprised by this movie. I hadn't expected much from it and it turned out to be a "to buy" movie. Definately looking forward to the sequels.
