At World's End

It was one big convoluted mess.  There were 4 scenes I absolutely loved and would watch over and over.  Too bad they were in this movie.

Barbosa was great.  Sparrow of course great.  Performances were great from mostly everyone.

Norrington dies.  That's the stupidest idea ever.  Why are you going to build up this great character over the previous two ( Read more... )

I know you're going to be COMPLETELY surprised. But I agree with you. :p Hahaha.

Norrington dies. That's the stupidest idea ever. Why are you going to build up this great character over the previous two movies only to have him die for really no reason.

*Hallelujah from the choir over here!*

And it's not because I don't understand either. I make it a point to analyze these movies. I work at a theatre where I spend most of my time watching movies over and over to understand why something works or doesn't work. I completely understand the plot, but the point is I also understand each audience i observe seems to get lost with the first showing.

Sweet Jesus help me save the cat! THANK YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

And you only get one chance to hook them. If you lose them once that's it. Game over. Well not for Disney, cuz they're going to make money regardless. But if they cared about makinga great movie, would they have dared to make a movie so convoluted and experimental. Yes that's right, experimental. I almost feel like they were just kind of sitting around going, "hey let's put this in and see what happens."

You know that noise that Little Richard makes in that Geico commercial? That WHOOOOOOO! I just made that.

those that love to look at Depp may enjoy this.

I once told someone I would probably enjoy watching Johnny sit on the pot for two hours. Obviously not, because I CRINGED throughout these sequences.

The giant Calypso. I'm fine with it, but to be honest there was something a bit too Xena Warrior Princess about that. And truth be told I enjoyed Xena, but come on guys, you're supposed to be 5 steps above an old syndicated show. Wassup?

Drive-In movie moment! EXACTLY!

Will becomes the new captain of The Dutchman. Unorthodox. Why would you do something so risky to a franchise. I thought for sure that Calypso would appear at the end and make things better so we could have the cliched happy ending. And sure it is a cliche, but honestly it's what alot of people wanted, dare I say it was almost a given. But just like Davey Jones, Calypso, and Norrington, Will and Elizabeth's happy ending or proper resolution never comes, although that's pretty much what you're garunteeing us with the first movie. Instead of resolution you give us a soap opera. Thanks.

I'm doing that swaying and clapping in the air thing right now. And I'm wearing a robe. *sings* Patrick on the mainline, tell him what you want!

After the credits. Yeah yeah, we see after the credits there is more to the story. This is just plain stupid. Not only do you take Will and Elizabeth's resolution to soap opera level, but you give us a major part of their resolution as a "bonus" at the end after the credits. Thing is not everyone stays after the credits. If you really wanted to tell everyone how it all really ends, why are you fuckin around. Put it in the fuckin movie. Yeah yeah, everyone knows that there's always bonus at the end of a POTC movie. But it's usually reserved for something unimportant about the dog or the monkey. What is this, "oh by the way they have a kid" crap? I've observed the last three showings every night since opening day, out of the 300 people per screening, 5 people stay to watch the end.

*puts a hefty donation in the donation plate*

I think Pirates should have been what Indiana Jones is.

*is ready to testify*

You're going to be awesome in Hollywood. You get it. Thank God. Remember me when you cast Bruce Willis in something, would ya? I'm totally interviewing him on YOUR set.
