Pirates of the Carabean : curse of the black Pearl

[themysca]

I need to see that one more time to decide if I liked it or not. /forums/images/icons/grin.gif

[ratm1966]

Okay, then why did you post a thread here? Why don't you watch it again, post your opinion of the movie, then ask what everyone else who saw it thinks about it?

[Ryall]

I only needed to see it once to decide that, other than NEMO, it's the best summer movie I've seen. Johnny Depp is awesome.

[Denyse]

For me, it was everything I want a summer movie to be...Action, adventure, romance, comedy, a couple of explosions and a cast that's very easy on the eyes. I hope they can make #2 as well...Two very enthusiastic thumbs up!

[Razorback]

What is a carabean? Is it tasty?

[Efexeye]

Gee, if I ripped on everyone who mis-spelled words or used poor grammar, I'd have over 1000 posts, too.

[Razorback]

Calling that a "rip" is hyperbole.

RB

[themysca]

Ok. I definitely need to see it again. Maybe I should have gone to the original version rather than a french-translated one. And maybe I would have like it better without the little monster crying all along. At least, I agree that Johnny Depp was very good. Remind me of Dustin Hoffman in Hook. And Orlando Bloom was just fine as the naive one.

[NOFX]

I thought it was a great movie and I would definetley like to see another movie of it's kind. Also wasn't there a movie that was called Pirates of the Carribean a long time ago cause somebody told me this and I wasn't sure if it was true.

[Zens_7s]

There was a movie called The Pirate Movie that was a take-off on the Pirates of Penzance.

[brycejmcewen]

I tried to write a "pirate" movie, but it turned into 200 pages of guys going "Argggggh, matey." Apparently, there has to be more to a movie than pirates going "Arggggh, matey." I always thought "Arggggh" said it all, but I guess I was wrong.

[karmattack]

Pirate walks into a bar with a steering wheel down his pants...

bartender looks at him and says "Isn't that steering wheel uncomfortable?"

Pirate says "AAAAAAaaargh, it's drivin' me nuts!"

[Zens_7s]

I can't believe I just laughed at that.

[DangerSeeker]

Three pirates are discussing their wounds.
"I was attacked by a crow up in that thar crow's nest, and he pecked me eye out, so now's I got one made a cork!"
"Arrr, I lost me hand to a gator, and all that rests in its place is this metal hook!"
"Avast! I dangled from many a plank, and on one such occasion, a shark felt a pang o hunger that cost me the knee down!
"All this talk of the sea is makin me thirsty. Woulja like another round?"
"Would I? Would I?"
"Peg leg! Peg leg!"

[karmattack]

Wait, I thought it was made a cork. /forums/images/icons/confused.gif

[karmattack]

Mainly, I'm just suprised that Pirates of the Caribbean was rated PG-13. I think it would be obvious to anyone who has seen it that it should have been rated R.

[makes pirate hook with his finger]

...Argh?


[walks plank]

[DangerSeeker]

Planks for the memories.

[themysca]

There was a quite good pirates by Roman Polanski, too, in 1986, staring Walter Matthau and Cris Campion. A good one, too. What's missing in the Caribbean is a good song. Don't read me wrong here. The soundtrack is good, could even have been signed by John Williams, but a nice balade would have scored.

[ELPARKINO]

first of all...you saw it in french? ...silly canadians...i would have to agree that this is teh perfect summer movie...arrrggghh....i've used eh pirate accent e'er since me an' me lassy lef' 'e thea'ter

ARRRRGGGHHHH

[themysca]

Nobody's perfect.

[jayandbobrock]

actully im canadian and i didnt see it in french but i have to see it again.

[psychofiend]

Can't be as good as the pure action-comedic gold (pun intended) of Cutthroat Island.

[Psyche]

derm.....i loved it...gonna like.......see it 3 more times and buy it when it comes out =]

if johnny doesnt get an oscar i have to commit suicide =\

[SecretArt]

waiting for the UK release...which is really annoying seeing as they had the premier over a week ago but its not actually in cinemas until 8th August....gol figure!

[Razorback]

I remember when (living in Europe meant that) a big American movie arrived a year or more later in theaters. A few weeks isn't that bad. /forums/images/icons/smile.gif

RB

[SecretArt]

i'm use to the gap between the USA release and the Uk release it just seems a bit silly to have the premier and all the media hype that surrounds it like 3 weeks before its actually on general release....

[psychofiend]

...Or you can go to Japan for a good bootleg DvD. The day after the American primier(sp??).

[mattsav]

Okay, help me out. I can't believe I'm writing this but I am confused by part of the Pirates...plot. Please confirm that Jack Sparrow does cut his hand and put the blood on a coin at the end. If so, why? Are he and Orlando Bloom brothers in a literal sense? Or is it more symbolic? OR is it because Jack stole a coin and was thus cursed like Geoffrey Rush and had to put his blood on the coin to reverse it?

And no, I am not a member of MENSA.

Thank you.

Confused in Boston.

[ratm1966]

I haven't a clue. I haven't watched it yet, but was planning on watching it this weekend.

[Razorback]

**********SPOILER, DO NOT READ************

He is cursed, so he must spill his blood.

RB

[ratm1966]

I need to quit reading this thread, it is giving away the whole movie. Of course, it is too tempting to just ignore a thread when it shows up as having a new post.

[Razorback]

Sorry... I added a spoiler warning now.

RB

[ratm1966]

Thanks, I am sure that erased everything I read about the movie here from my memory.

[Razorback]

Oh well... at least it may help others.

RB

[code6enterprises]

**********SPOILER, DO NOT READ************

But if he was cursed then how could he spill his own blood.

[Razorback]

*********SPOILERS YOU DIPPIES!*********

Maybe he can be cut but not killed.

Since the sequel is coming out, I thought I would resurrect this thread.

Is it just me or does it look awesome?

[karmattack]

I'm excited to see it. I went to see MI:3 with my mom-unit last night and the new Pirates trailer ran in front of it. Seeing some of the effects on the big screen filled me with gleeeeeeeeeee!

[BAMSS04]

I can't wait. It should be awesome!

[bwdial]

Less than two months! My daughter and I are going to see it the day it opens.

[ILovePapaSmurf]

I am excited to see it because I loved the first one, but if it ends up sucking, I will cry.

Cry like that time when I skinned my knee on a bicycle. I swear that cat came out of nowhere...

[Mighty Wingman]

I'm not going to get too worked up just yet. It's hard enough to believe Bruckheimer can be responsible one good movie , but two?
Will the main characters return ?
Is Verbinski directing?

[ILovePapaSmurf]

Yes, the main characters are returning. Have you not seen the trailer?

[By-tor]

Have you not seen the trailer?Hell, woman, he lives in one. :D

[By-tor]

Since the sequel is coming out, I thought I would resurrect this thread.

Is it just me or does it look awesome?Looks great, but, it's dinner time and I'm heading over to the pirate's favorite fast food stop:

ARRRRR-BY's. Yummy!

[jjcourtright]

I've yet to see the first one. No matter how many times I hear how good it is, I still have no urge to see it.

[FanGirl]

I was the same way. I didn't see it until I was trapped at a friend's house and forced to watch it. Now it's in my regular rotation. So we just need to trap you somewhere and force you to watch it.

[Robbo_the_Hood]

I've yet to see the first one. No matter how many times I hear how good it is, I still have no urge to see it.It's all right. Johnny Depp is great, but it's shot like an MTV video with it's all of it's quick edits. It's more annoying than entertaining. But it proves my theory that Jerry Bruckheimer + Movie = not good.

[phit_demon]

I've yet to see the first one. No matter how many times I hear how good it is, I still have no urge to see it.
Don't bother, it's not as good as people make out.
I went to see it with high hopes cos I like The Depp but I was quite disappointed. Orlando Bloom is lame and Johnny isn't all that much either.
Mildly entertaining, nothing more.

[Mighty Wingman]

I've yet to see the first one. No matter how many times I hear how good it is, I still have no urge to see it.
Duuuude ! It has Keira Knightley in it !

[Mighty Wingman]

Hell, woman, he lives in one. :D

Now correct me if I'm wrong , you live in Waco, right ?

[By-tor]

Now correct me if I'm wrong , you live in Waco, right ?Outside of Waco, thank you very much. But Bellmead is where all the toothless meth-lab cooking, trailer park living degenerates hang. You can smell the ether 10 miles away.

[Mighty Wingman]

Well hey , at least you guys finally got your own Hooters.

But I'll bet you a thousand bucks there are more trailer parks within ten miles of your house than within ten miles of mine.

[By-tor]

Well hey , at least you guys finally got your own Hooters.

But I'll bet you a thousand bucks there are more trailer parks within ten miles of your house than within ten miles of mine.Sadly, agreed. :o

[JK]

hey, lurker... you're not going to find anything in here about the new movie...

[Graceful17]

Johnny Depp... *forever drooling*

[acid_soda]

Johnny depp? Jessica Alba!

[Matthew]

Johnny depp? Jessica Alba!

When will she show her tatas....

[Robbo_the_Hood]

When will she show her tatas....If she didn't in Sin City when she played a stripper, she ain't ever gonna...that is until she needs a career rejuvination and she poses for Playboy when she's a little too old ala Kristy Swanson, Tia Carrere, Farrah Fawcett, etc.

[jjcourtright]

Or stars in some Skinemax movie in an effort to get people to remember her.
