I probably won't get many replies, but still I'd like to hear your views. Erm, read your views, anyway.
Right.
Yesterday I went to see Pirates of the Caribbean 3: At World's End (the premiere of sorts here) and, um... well, I *am* a Pirates fan, so I'm a bit biased, aren't I?
I was blown away with how little they took themselves seriously - the movie is even a bigger funfest than the last two Pirates movies (which says quite a bit - those of you who've seen the legendary 'Wheel of Fortune' scene know what I mean). If you haven't seen the movie, I'd recommend it, but be warned - thar be plenty more o' Wheels where that came from.
Johnny would bring life to a broken-down drink dispenser and, Cthulhu be praised, by the end of the movie I lost the urge to tie Orlando Bloom's guts in a Gordian knot.
Keira is, apparently, Winston Churchill preincarnated.
Geoffrey has more arrs and yaarrs and har har har!s up his sleeve than you'd give him credit for.
Bill Nighy has a weird accent.
Kevin McNally is just plain fun.
Midgets and big guns don't mix. Or, rather, they do. So do undead monkeys and cannons.
The best place for a wedding is in the middle of a bloodbath. Brainstorm - a baptism would work well in such an occasion, too.
Tom Hollander has shipwright-issues.
Fun, fun, fun!
I won't go into spoiler-infested waters, because it's more fun to watch the movie with all the plot twists waiting around the corner. Then again, even if I told you everything, I'd still be a fun movie. And that's what I love about Pirates of the Caribbean - they're fun. It's the Indiana Jones of my generation... which is not to say that Indy didn't raise me (along with Han, mind you.... come to think of it, Harrison Ford was a surrogate father to me). But this... this is our movie, baby.
...
Oh, and, btw, Keith Richards rocks.
...
Pun intended.

I liked a lot first movie, but second one dissapointed me A LOT. I'll probably watch the 3th, though :insane:
-
:- o I thought both movies were great! I stll haven't seen the 3rd 'cuz lack of time.
Besides, Johnny Depp :wub:
-
:w00t_jump: I hope to see it this weekend - but I already saw a "making of" and lots of pictures :)

How so? That is, wherefore? The movie in general disappointed you, or where you bummed by the ending?

3rd ;)
I'd definitely recommend it.
Besides, Johnny Depp :wub:
I'm a big fan of his work, so having him on board was like going to the store, finding out they've got your favorite brand of ice-cream dirt cheep and then having a spontaneous orgasm just to top of the initial happiness.

In a completely straight kind of way.

Making of? Where?

:lol3: that's a good way to describe it. Indeed, I really like the characters he tends to play in movies, very unique, besides being a great actor, and did I mention cute? :roll-eyes:

Saw the last two and they were great , besides i dont miss any of johnny depp's movies, you know because of my phisycal resemblance to him and all that stuff, anyways as soon as i see the new one ill post again .
yo yo yo :)

I didn't even see the second one last year. :lol: I guess I didn't have time to.
As for this 3rd one, I don't know, perhaps I'll watch it. It's coming out tomorrow here, so definately I'll watch it in a week or so, if I watch it all. :whistle:
-
I'll have to do some serious convincing work and/or sign a treacherous agreement with my g.f. if I want her to come along and see that movie with me. :ninja:
BTW, I like both of the previous parts... somehow I preferred the second movie, the phatom ship and everything on it is just great! Not to talk about the octopus-like monster, I would really like to be of those if I don't were an anglerfish. Hope to have some time this weekend to go and see it... along with Shrek the third!

I agree with Luthy! (a first time ever! :ninja:)
The second one was just too long and boring
-
All second movie bored me a lot. The first one, on the contrary, was fantastic. I think I saw it 3 times (in the cinema) :unsure:

I must be very wrong, then :ninja:

They remind me of Cthulhu. :lol3:

... just heard a part of the soundtrack - it´s wonderful!! I hope to see the movie this weekend :)
yo ho

I loved the second one, although, granted, it wasn't as good as the first movie - it did lack something. I didn't find it boring (quite the contrary), but it lacked that certain something something.
I've been listening to the At World's End soundtrack for a few days now... beautiful. Especially Parlay. :) The scene in the movie when the song plays is like something out of a Sergio Leone movie, only with a Pirates' twist. And the song... arrgh! Morriconesque :)
The beginning of the movie introduces the new theme - the song's called Hoist the Colours and it's darker than the uplifting He's a Pirate theme. Especially in the intro scene.
Also, the lyrics are the best case of foreshadowing I've seen in a while - but you just don't get it at the time ;)
(Well, foreshadowing of a sort)
Yo-ho, all together
Hoist the colours high
Heave-ho, thieves and beggars
Never shall we die

:yeha: I´ve seen it yesterday!! It´s a great movie - and if you´ll watch it I have an advice: stay in your seats after the movie itself and watch credits COMPLETELY!!!L ;D
