Official PotC3 review
Point the first: The Calypso effect. I was... unimpressed. Woohoo, Tia Dalma got all big, spoke in tongues and then dissolved into a tidal wave of crabs.
W. T. F? I was expecting something a little more impressive than simply appealing to the giantess fetishists.
Point the second: Beckett was not a good enough baddie to deserve a slow-mo death scene. Not by half, not by a quarter he was, to quote Jack, "A beligerant homonculous" Seriously, no one that short could possibly be a convincing baddie.
Point the third: Elizabeth was more of a marysue than ever. Sure, sure, she was a kickass sue, which was all well and good, but... meh, still don't like her any. Though, I will admit that I did feel a little sorry for her at the end, because she went from being King of the Pirates to being Single Mum on a Deserted Island Somewhere, and that would suck for anyone.
Point the fourth: I rather liked the new song "Hoist the Colors" and I was surprisingly unbothered by the fact that they were hanging a kid. In fact, I agree with... I think it was Panther who said: "I don't mind the killing of children apparently, just as long as they don't need a booster seat to do it"
In other news: "Hit in the face by a flaming undead monkey" would be an awesome band name.
