Pirates!

[cloudy]

Everyone seen the trailer for the third Pirates? If you haven't, go here, click on "view trailer," and take a look - turn your speakers up.

I am so going to see this one in the theaters, hopefully as soon as it comes out.

(Johnny Depp *sigh* )

Welcome to the Box Office of two months ago, cloudy.

I saw the trailer in March.

And yes, Johnny...*sigh*, also, Keira...*sigh*.

I go to the theaters about once a year. I miss all the good stuff.

I didn't see it in the theater. I saw it on my computer, put on my headphones, turned up the volume, played it several times over, and just swooned.

Indeed.

I was so glad to see (at the end of the second) that Barbosa was coming back. Geoffrey Rush isn't the eye-candy that Johnny Depp is, but he's a terrific actor, and Barbosa is a great character.

I love the monkey.

Pirates is about the only thing I have watched and liked Johnny Depp. Geoffrey Rush is an amazing actor.....I would gladly watch him in 'Shine' over and over again. A consumate performance.

Min and I both loved Pirates 1, but were a tad disappointed in 2. Not sure I want to watch another and be even more disappointed.

The 2nd one was more like an introduction for this coming one. Besides, this one seems to have a fairly good plot, and it's not like I'm gonna miss two of my fav actors and actresses in action.

Watch the trailer, Mat. Rush/Barbosa is central to 3. (I was a little disappointed in 2, as well, but this one looks like it might live up to the first one)

eta: I just had to look up Naomie Harris, who plays Tia Dalma. She is absolutely beautiful:

Just watched it.

It just might be worth watching.

There's no central character in Pirates that's not easy on the eye, cloudy.

Agree with about Johnny, Geoffrey ... and Kiera.

The reviews of Pirates 3 seem pretty damning. Most upbeat I've seen was 'don't do a part4'.

 

[Stella_Omega]

I never trust a sequel anyway, so I doubt I'll be disappointed. From the clips and stuff that I've seen, there's more of Captain Jack Sparrow in this one-- maybe almost enough of him for me!
And I can't wait to see the rest of the cast. Personally, I do think Barbossa is eye candy. I love that character. I don't see Norrington in any trailors or clips, and I am going to be PISSED off if his character is downplayed.

It's the funniest thing; I adore Johnny Depp to distraction, and I'm in absolute awe of his talents, and no one else could possibly play CJS, but I have never, ever 'seen' him in Sparrow. Jack Sparrow stands as his own persona...

 

[TheeGoatPig]

This is one of very few movies that I will be seeing in theaters this year, so I'm obviously excited.

 

[jomar]

I love that Depp based CJS on Keith Richards and that Richards played CJS's father.

I was disappointed in 2 also. I hope 3 can match the hype.

I am totally with you on the Depp sigh (*sigh*), but I fell asleep in the second one, and I've rarely met a film that didn't disappoint me on a third date.

Hm, in fact I can't recall any third in a series that has ever stood up. T2 and Aliens were FANTASTIC, LOTR 2 was good enough, but in adding a third to all of these was a huge mistake.

I am ... hm ... skeptical.

 

[rgraham666]

"You're mad!"

"If I wasn't this would probably never work."



That's worth the price of a ticket alone.

Surely you don't think any Harry Potter movie bad?

That is a very astute observation, I think Depp would appreciate it. I so enjoy a fine actor who can make one unawares of self or ego in a role. I too love the Sparrow in his own right, and wish he had a better 'stage' on which to prance.

Me too. As opposed to Owen Wilson and Vince Vaughn (who I like and enjoy) who basically play the same role in every movie.

lol - do you REALLY want to know? lol

I hate it that he's at the mercy of the mouse.

Isn't this the one where Keith Richards plays his father?

Sigh. Maybe it's yet another example of the idea being better than the execution.

yes, but it's going to be a very short scene-- but IMPORTANT, sez the producers.

Any idea that includes Keefers in any way is good with me!

Yahoo has just posted photos of all the pirate lords
WOW!
