[oh, and it just so happens to be 4:44!]
so the Captain and I just got back from wrapping up shooting the "Ninjas Vs. Pirates" film. This short film shot right 'ere in Central Florida gathered a wide array of pirates, and then a couple of ninjas, to depict a tremendous battle. Pirates totally win! First off, they needed pirates to pose as ninjas just to make it look like they have a chance. Secondly, our fighters are ridiculously badass. And third,... well, I'm not gonna ruin the ending.
But be sure when I say pirates win. Everybody was on their side, even if it's just secretly. But lets go into the real world and see a bit of how how these two groups stack up.
First the Ninjas:
there are very few acceptable ninjas...
Chuck Norris
Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles
Mighty Morphin' Power Rangers
Karate Kid

...and the best of them have lost their edge.
then there are the ninja-like people...
Batman
Cobra Command
Mortal Kombat and Tekken
finally, the ninja "enthusiasts"
Vanilla Ice (Ninjas lose points here!)

Now, take a gander at a sampling of the Pirates:
Blackbeard
Captain Hook and his men
Captain Jack Sparrow and Captain Hector Barbossa
The Dread Pirate Roberts
Captain Morgan
...each legendary Pirates who stand the test of time
though it may not be as many, our exceptional pirates are the greatest
Han Solo
Flogging Molly
and we clearly win with much awesomer pirate enthusiasts
Jimmy Buffett
The Goonies
SpongeBob SquarePants
TheBestPageInTheUniverse.com (Maddox will totally kick any other webmaster's ass)
lastly, one thing ninjas certainly don't have, their own holiday.
International Talk Like a Pirate Day
Now, I only mentioned a few of the pirates I've discovered. I didn't bother to mention piraty things, like drinks and Superbowl winning sports teams. and I'm not even gonna touch the people who have the pirate spirit, thar be no need to, it's already obvious! ye best come to the conclusion that Pirates are way cooler than ninjas.
film,
pirate
