Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl

[Catgirl]

I am getting very excited for this new movie, and can't wait to see it. I was wondering if anyone else is looking forward to seeing this movie as well as me? The main reasons for me wanting to see it are for Orlando Bloom and Johnny Depp! Although, I think that the fact that the movie is based on pirates makes it really cool anyway.

[Silme*Christian]

I can't wait to see it either! Where, Orlando Bloom is one reason, and pirates (sp?) is another, I say a few clips, and the spetial (sp?) effects are awsome!

[Khamûl]

This movie is on my to-see list. (No, not because of Johnny Depp and Orlando Bloom :p) It looks like it should be a good movie and I think pirates are cool anyway.

By the way, Silme*Christian, I love your new Mr. Bean avatar. He's the most popular guy on the 'moot now. :D

[Silme*Christian]

REALLY?! Wow. I love yours better. I really want to see POTC

[Catgirl]

Well, I have also watch some of the movie clips and am really impressed with how real thay made the skeletons look! They did a really cool job. And I also love the fact that they gave Jack Sparrow (Johnny D.) a funny personality. It goes really well with him, and I LOVE his smile!!!!!!!:D

[Silme*Christian]

Really? sounds cool!

[Giroth]

LOL,it's funny that both slime and khamul have Mr. Bean avatars:D:D:D:D


I KNEW this thread was coming............I mean,there are like a million orlando bloom fans here,and aside from that,pirates and special effects can be cool:D:D:D:D

Looks good:cool:

[Salquënòrëwen]

I wanna see it too, because it looks like a cool movie............................................. ...........and because of Orlando Bloom....;) :D

[Giroth]

LOL!

I must say that I wouldn't want to see the movie because of OB..........but just because I like special effects,sword fights,ect.!ACTON!!!!wahahah!!!

[Salquënòrëwen]

oh.....and Johnny Depp too.....:) :) :)

[Giroth]

not going to see him either:cool:

DEAD PIRATES!!!!!!!!YYYAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!

[Silme*Christian]

I'd rather see it for the sword fight than for OB or JD. Almost all the movies I have, got a sword fight scene or two in 'em.

[Giroth]

heheheh, I agree there:cool: :cool:

[Silme*Christian]

But that's just the sword fight scenes! ALL my movies got cool graphics and special (sp?) effects.

[Salquënòrëwen]

I wanna see a sword fight too! One that includes OB and JD.....hehe :p :D

[Giroth]

me want special effects!whahahaha!!!!!!

[Salquënòrëwen]

I want special effects too......one's with OB and JD!!!!:p ;) :D hehe....

[Silme*Christian]

OB look poor in his only SE scene in FOTR. It looked fake.

[Lady Tinuveil]

Jhonny Depp Is on Jay leno right now.
[West Coast]

[Silme*Christian]

Cool

[Ruinel]

Ok... everytime I think of this movie, I burst into laughter. This is a ride at Disney World in Orlando, FL. BWAAHAHAHAHAHA!!!! http://www.gamers-forums.com/smilies/contrib/blackeye/evil_laughter.gif

Although I think Johnny Depp is a total hottie, http://burns.thefinaldimension.org/otn/love/1ylflame.gif I have no plans to see the movie.

[Varda Oiolosseo]

I really can't wait to see it! It looks fab!

I made a complete fool out of myself the other day! lol! I went with my friends to see Identity and before it started me and one of my friends went to the toilet, we came out of the door to the screens and there was a poster for POTC and we both went "Wow! OMG look how fit Orlando is! OMG it looks so good, i can't wait" and were really hysterical and looking like twits. We went back into the cinema and everyone was laughing at us and our other friend sed what were you screaming about Orlando for?!

We are not the kind of annoying girls that do that all the time it was just that time, it caught us of guard and wwe weren' expecting it! lol

We felt right wally's lol!

It's not out untill August is it?

Khamul! I'm shocked! Some fangirl you are! :D

Varda: It comes out on July 9th, in Canada. My friend and I are going to see it the day it comes out. I can't wait.

[Salquënòrëwen]

Me and Celumërian are gonna go see it on the 9th.....I think it's gonna bea really cool movie...especially since OB and JD are in it.....:D ;)

[Rosie Gamgee]

It (POTC) is going to be in a cinema near me in a few days. I want to see it, A) cuz it looks cool, and B) because I want to see Orlando Bloom act in another movie besides LOTR.
It looks like it's gonna be good. I liked the part in the preview when the pirate says "I'll teach you the meaning of pain!" and the girl says, "Pain? Try wearin' a corset!":D

[Silme*Christian]

If you want to watch OB in something other than LOTR try watching Black Hawk Down! He is only in it for a "short" while. (I think it lasts forever:rolleyes: ). Also, for "hot" actors, theres Josh Heartnet, Ewan McGregor, Tom Sizemore, Sam Shephard(sp?) and much much more! All in all it's a great movie, based on a true story, great book, too! OB might be hard to spot cause they all look alike, but his CN is Blackburn and he looks 18 years old and he joins the Rangers. That is all I am willing to say here, but here is a MAJOR spoiler! Beware!!!!!If you can handle the fact, then here it is, Blackburn, played by OB, dies in the begining of the movie.

I've seen BHB, and I've been trying to get Celumërian to watch it again with me...Oh well. I watched it before I knew who Orlando Bloom was though...:rolleyes: So I need to watch it again! He dies???? :eek:

[Silme*Christian]

Yes, he dies, remember? He was the one who fell out a the Black Hawk when they had to avoid getting hit by an RPG. :p

[Salquënòrëwen]

Oh! I remember now! That was a bit stupid of him, wasn't it? lol....:p :D

[Silme*Christian]

Good to see that you remember. Not too much of a brainstorm now. He was told to "go" by whoever Josh Heartnet's character was.

[Salquënòrëwen]

Oh....I need to watch it again...:)

[Silme*Christian]

That's never a bad idea!;)

[Elvengirl]

The Pirates of the Carribean is one of my favorite Disney rides :D

Yeah, I want to see the movie, I hope they have the same tune in the film.

Yo Ho, Yo Ho, a pirates life for me............ :D

[Salquënòrëwen]

Lol, I also love the ride. I went on it just about a month ago. When I bought a necklace in the shop, they gave me a free movie poster! I stared at it at least once every day.....until I gave it to Celumërian...:D

*joins in" Yo, ho! Yo, ho! *hehe....*

[Firekitten2006]

I wanna see it because Jonny Depp is an AWESOME actor :)

they cut yo ho ho out of the movie

[Silme*Christian]

That's OK, I am going to see it anyway!:)

[Salquënòrëwen]

Really? Aww man! I was looking forward to hearing Orli sing....lol :p :D ;)

[Firekitten2006]

that would be interesting to hear him sing......

[Silme*Christian]

I don't care for singing in any movie.:D

[Varda Oiolosseo]

lol! I wanna hear him sing!

I can't wait! I've got about a month left!

Black Hawk down was brilliant and there was Orli AND Josh Hartnett! they are both gorgeous! :p :D

[Lalaith]

I want to see it. Anyone knows the opening date for Austria (okay, I am kidding).

[Catgirl]

Yah, I am going to see it on the 10th with all my friends. And I think that they should have some singing in a movie as long as it is a short song. They should have put some singing in LOTR, I think I would be grat to hear Orlando or Vigo sing some songs. but I an't wait till Pirates of the Carribean come out!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :rolleyes:

[Silme*Christian]

Well, in extended ed. of LOTR Vigo (Aragorn) sings the song of Luthien.

[Catgirl]

Really? I have not seen the Extended version, so i would not know. But, It would be cool to hear OB sing a song in the last movie. :o

[frodosgirlfriend]

My friend Sierra came up for the week just so we can see the movie on opening night! I'm so excited! *jumps up and down a screams*

[Salquënòrëwen]

I don't get to see it the day it comes out.....:( Because Celumërian has to baby-sit her sister :( :( :(

Oh well, we'll just have to see it the next day :)

[Silme*Christian]

I won't be able to see it till it comes out in the dollar theatre

[elf queen]

Can anyone find how long it is?
Need answer ASAP!

[Silme*Christian]

3 hours max.

[Elvengirl]

how long the movie is? 135 minutes.

[Silme*Christian]

I know it couldn't be more than 3 hours!:D

[Salquënòrëwen]

I get to see it today afterall! :D I'm going to see it in about 2 hours, with Celumërian :)

[Varda Oiolosseo]

oooooooooh lucky you!!!!!

Have fun! :D

[Lady of Rohan]

I just got back from seeing it...... and it was GREAT!!!!! JD was HILLARIOUS (not really cracking jokes funny, but more his whole pirate aspect)! I loved the movie, and I can't wait untill Saturday. ;)

[Silme*Christian]

What do you guys think the best JD movie is? I say:

1. Nightmare on Elm Street
2. Edward Scicer(sp?) hands
3.POTC
4. Cassualties of War

[Firekitten2006]

The best movie has to be Blow....loved it

[Silme*Christian]

I have not seen that one. What is it about? What's it rated? Why is it rated that?

[Firekitten2006]

well JD is a guy from a new england town, his family is slowly getting poor. he goes out to california. its about the mid 60's i think. he gets into drugs. eventually he becomes one of the largest drug dealers and importers in the country. it shows how his life is ruined and ends with him being put in jail. really is a very good movie, cant seem to describe it right, but its very dramatic. its rated R because of sex scenes, cussing, and obviously because of what its about.

[Salquënòrëwen]

It was AMAZING! Anyone who hasn't seen it should go see it....right now! I'm going to see it again with my family sometime this week...I can't wait! It's wonderful :)

[Salquënòrëwen]

The "Yo, ho!" song is in the movie afterall! (Just figured I'd let ya'know!) :)

[Silme*Christian]

Another good drug dealer's lif movie is Empire. It's about a drug dealer who want out of his bisuness so he can raise his family in a safe enviroment(ps?). Good movie. Shows you how dangerus drugs can be.

YEA :D I knew they would! I 'm going this weekend. I can't wait :D

[Celebréiel]

Okay okay, I have to say...I saw it today and it was really good! Alot better than I thought it would be! :) I liked it!

[elvenhobbit]

THEY ARE SOOOOOOOOOOOOHOTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT

[frodosgirlfriend]

I Saw it yesterday! JOHNNY DEPP IS SOOOOOOOOOO HOT!!!!!!!! he was WAY better then Orli in acting and Hotness. Actully I really didn't like the Orli scenes, they where all really cheesy. But Depp was wonderful to the point where I'll defenitly go to see it again.

[Silme*Christian]

You girly girls only see movies with "hot guys" in them. It's really anoying to here things like "Legolas is the hotest elf" or "I totaly go for Aragorn" and "OMG Legolas is SOOOOOO HOOOT! I want to be his GF!"

[IronParrot]

Silly fangirls, Trix are for kids.

Anyway, I saw this film over the weekend, and I walked out with a rather positive impression. My full review is located here (http://www.ualberta.ca/~ntam/2003_07_01_archive.html#105820083959417966), but here's a sample:
What is most commendable about Pirates of the Caribbean is that as a successful translation of a Disneyland boat ride into a fun adventure movie that plays in the same key as Martin Campbell's The Mask of Zorro, it leads to some admirable implications. Perhaps it is only a matter of time before somebody in Hollywood figures out how to make a tolerable movie of this sort out of a video game, for instance. The real curse has nothing to do with black pearls, but franchise-motivated adaptations; we should applaud Pirates of the Caribbean for breaking it.

sawit yesterday

[Lalaith]

Comes to cinema in Septembre. Hurray.

[Lollypopgurl]

It was A LOT better than I thought it would be. Johnny Depp's character was the COOLEST. I've never seen any of his movies before before PotC; he's an awesome actor. (Better than Orlando Bloom)

[Elvengirl]

Saw it and I thought it was very good.
It was great to see the scenes that came directly from the ride.
It was a good translation. The story was a bit weak, but it was made up for in practically everything else. Johnny Depp was great, he added such character to the movie and was a very commendable pirate I must say. Very funny. Orlando was good, I think he did his part fine, no complaints for him.
I was dissappointed in the song though. I was hoping for a hearty jig and singing from the pirates.
But overall I was impressed.

YO HO, YO HO, a pirates life for me..........:D

[Rosie Gamgee]

Ooooo, ooo! I saw it!! It was GREAT! It was soooo goooood! I love pirates, and this was just the best movie. I think Johnny Depp was perfect, and . . . ahem, em . . . I think I like Orlando Bloom now. :D :D

[Silme*Christian]

I saw a good JD movie today.... Whats Eating Gilbert Grape. It also has Leonardo DeCapreo (sp?) staring as JD's retarted 18-year-old brother.

[frodosgirlfriend]

You should see Depp in Chocolat He has a small part in it, but he plays the samll part very well. He was great in edward sicer (sp?) hands too. and if in the mood for something light and happy then watch Benny and Joon. THat was my favorite Depp movie for a long time just because of the close he wears in it. I also LOVED him in Sleepy Hollow. He was great in that. My favorite at the moment is POTC, but i have trouble keeping a favorite and i'm sure in an hour it'll swich to Sleepy hollow or something like that.

[Agalayth]

I just saw it a few days ago, and I thought it was really good. On the contrary of what the fangirls are saying, Keira Knightley looked mighty fine in that movie. ;) But the excitement is what really makes me want to see it again.

Saw him in Sleepy Hollow. Wasn't bad.

[Catgirl]

Yah!!!!! I just saw it yesterday! It was soooooooo good!!!!!!!! I think it was almost as god as LOTR! I especially likes Johnny Depp, he was soooooo hOT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! He was even better than Orli! He was amazing!!!!! I think that they could have done a better job on Orli's character. But, JD was still cool, and he was great at playing the part! He makes such a hot Actor, Especially as a pirate! :D ;) :D

[Silme*Christian]

There must be a LOT of girlie-girls in here. All I'm hearing is "JD is SOOOOOOOOOOOO HOOOOOOOOT!!!! And OB WAS SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO HOOOOOOOOOOOOT

[elvishfaerie3088]

Did anyone else besides me notice disneys mistake in pirates?

[Silme*Christian]

Nope.

[gimli7410]

i just saw it and it was pretty good. johnny depp was hilarious. i didnt notice any disney mistakes though, i wonder what will turn up:rolleyes:

[Khamûl]

I went and saw this movie tonight. I thought that it was very good. It's one of the best movies of the summer and I think I might go see it again. Johnny Depp was hilarious.

exactly what i thought, and the transitions form flesh to skeleton looked awesome

[Silme*Christian]

So this movie is supposed to be really really really good and JD and OB or supposed to be "SOOOOOOOOOOOOO HOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO OOOT"?:rolleyes:

[Varda Oiolosseo]

yup! But unfortunately i havn't seen it yet!! :eek:

It's agony having to wait for it to come out!! :( :p

[Catgirl]

I found this Personality Quiz that rates you according to JD. Here is is, Have fun! http://members.aol.com/radioheadchick/quizzes/depp.htm

[Rosie Gamgee]

I noticed plenty of mistakes!! For example, Will's mustache? In the morning of the first day, it's the teeniest wisp of a six o'clock shadow. Then in the early afternoon of the same day, it's a full-blown mustache and goatee (spl?). WHAT?! It's still a GREAT movie anyways.
I got to go see it again a few days ago. I love that movie.:D

[Catgirl]

I just went to see it agai and it is even better the second time!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!:rolleyes: And Jd just keeps getting Hoter and Hoter!And yes, I have also notices some flaw's in Will's appearence. And also, when Elisabeth is ont he ship with the pirates, and she in being taken onto shore, she has no makeup on, but five minutes later she has lipstick, mascara, and eye liner on? What's up with that? Anyways, here are some stats on JD and some pictures!

[Rosie Gamgee]

I'm going to get the soundtrack of this movie tomorrow (hopefully). Well, actually, I'll put it on layaway. I can't wait!! I love the music.
The only thing that bothers me is, the movie credits said that Klaus Badelt or somebody-or-other wrote the music, at amazon.com it says that he wrote it with Hans Zimmer (which I will definately believe), and the poster says Alan Silvestri wrote it. Who wrote it already!

[azalea]

WHOOOOOPEEEE!
I FINALLY got to see it this weekend (I really wanted to see this one on the big screen)! Although I have some minor criticisms, it was a great movie. One fun moment was when a murmur went through the Florida audience (all people who a frequent Disney-goers, and thus have ridden Pirates of the Caribbean many times) when they showed the scene where the men are in jail and are trying to get the dog with the keys to come over. That was done EXACTLY like the ride; it was uncanny. So in addition to the chuckle, everyone commented on how cool it was that they'd done that (and how funny Depp's line was -- "You can do that FOREVER, the dog will NEVER come over," and sure enough, no matter how many years it's been since you've gone on the ride, those guys are still trying to get the dog to come over, and he still hasn't moved :D ). There were a few other moments taken directly from the ride that I noticed; I'm sure there's a website that lists all of them.
A little off-topic, but regarding the preview for The Haunted Mansion that's shown: is that also taken from the Disney ride? Is that the big thing now, basing movies on rides rather than vice-versa?:p

[Elvengirl]

OH, I totally agree Azalea. I'm a huge Disney-goer. That part of the movie with the dog was soo funny. I'm glad they put that in. And then later Depp tries to get the dog to come over with the key. hehe :D

And yes the Hanted Mansion movie is based on the ride; another classic Disney attraction. I saw the preview and it looks like it's going to be a comedy with Eddy Murphy, which might be kind of dumb since the Haunted Mansion is supposed to be scary; but we'll see. :)

I know they made a movie out of the Tower of Terror. It was pretty good. It sounds like they are making all the rides into movies. Next we'll see Thunder Mountain Railroad The Movie.
Oh, I hope not. :rolleyes: :D

[Varda Oiolosseo]

It's out next week and i am sooooooo excited!!!!!!!!!
It looks fantastic!
:D :D :D :D :D :D

[Elfmaster XK]

It's not out in the UK until the 7th August. Wah.

But I managed to get to see it anyway. I think it's a great film. It was so funny. I thought it was damned clever when they steal the ship. And the way the guy puts his arm through the bars and grabs Cap'n Sparrow and you just see a bit of his skeleton arm through the moonlight. Twas a great film, but I am biased anyway as I love pirates :D

[HobbitChick88]

Did anybody stay after the credits and watch the extra scene?? It was pretty funny, it took forever to get to it though..... it just had the monkey in it, but it was still funny. :D

[Catgirl]

Really? I didn't know there was an extre scene! I will just have to back and watch it again:D

[Rosie Gamgee]

That is just not fair! I was gonna watch the credits to their completion, and my parents are like "We gotta gooo now!" Oh, well. Hopefully it will be on the DVD when it comes out.
I want to watch some 'Behind the Scenes' stuff for this movie! I want to know how they made all of this stuff. It's just so cool, savvy? :D
btw, whoever that is with the Capt'n Sparrow avvy, dude sweet! I wanted one like that, But this computer . . . Arrg! Savvy?

[Bombadillo]

I saw the movie, but that's all I have to say about it. It wasn't really as brilliant as the media claims I think.

[Varda Oiolosseo]

OMG!!!!!!!!!!! It was fantastic!
Orlando was a gorgeous as ever and Johnny Depp was brilliant! He was sooooooo funny! "that's intresting"

Some parts were quite creepy. lol.

It is one of the best films i've seen for AGES! :D :D :D :D
I'm seeing it again next week! :D:D:D

[Elfmaster XK]

Saw it at the cinema on Thursday, opening day :D Was so great. Am still loving the effects and everything about it. But mostly I love the was Jack Sparrow speaks. I would say most of the funniest moments were thanks to him. :D

I want to know more about Bootstrap Bill, I mean, he must've been cursed too, neh? So how would losing him to Davey Jones' locker help the situation? The only solution I can think of is that he didn't steal a piece of gold from the chest, but from one of the pirates and sent it to Will. But am not sure that'd work either. If anyone can explain this please do. *is confused*

Bootstrap was against the crew leaving Sparrow on the island, but he didn't get stuck on the island with him, so it would seem that he stayed with the crew. If he was with the crew, it would seem that he would be cursed to. If he's cursed, he can't die, so he'd still be alive at the bottom of the ocean, right?

You bring up a good point though. Maybe he left the crew after they marooned Jack but before they took the treasure. Then he ran into them again later and realized the gold was cursed and sent a piece to Will to get back at them.

But if that's the case, why did they need his blood to lift the curse? It seems that everyone that took the gold to begin with had to be there to lift the curse. So if Bootstrap wasn't cursed, why did they need him to lift the curse?

*head explodes*

*head explodes*

Yes, I thought of that last one too. That leaves the only option to be that Bootstrap is in fact still alive. Unless by passing the gold onto Will he removed the curse from himself. But then surely Will would be cursed, and then Elizabeth when she stole it, but you'd think they'd've noticed if they turned into freaky undead things every full moon. And then they wouldn't need his blood.

I can think of a possible scenario, but is unlikely and complicated. If Bootstrap didn't like them because of what they did to Jack and thought they should be cursed, then maybe he...actually wait, that wouldn't work either. Was going to say maybe he paid the blood already and put his coin back and sent Will one he later came across but then they wouldn't need Turner blood. But that could work if they misunderstood the curse, and the gold required the blood of anyone who had the gold. But they spent it didn't they. Hmm.

Bootstrap must still be alive. Because even if he was dropped with a cannon strapped to him he has had ten years to get it off and walk to land. Maybe a PotC II could help us with this :D

Maybe it is a smart curse and can tell he wasn't a greedy nasty man. :D

I stayed right to the end of the credits to see the extra scene and my thought on that was NOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!! Damn you monkey!!!

I think I've been bit by the dread Curse, fer now all I seem t' think about is Pirates, savvy? I really love that movie!

lol
same here i LOVE it!

Me and my mates went into a toyshop and we found all these pirate hats and they were fantastic lol. We were trying them on and we found swords too lol but we kept getting funny looks and all these 6 yr olds were stood watching us fighting. I must have been quite funny though for them or maybe scary :rolleyes: lol 3 15 year old girls sword fighting.
:rolleyes:

Oooooh and do you know what else i keep doing and it's starting to drive me mad. You know Johnny Depp he kept putting his hand up and half curling up his fingers (didn't explain that very well) but i keep doing it and i look like a real twit. lol:rolleyes:

I hate to be pedantic and all, but ye can't put "savvy" at the end of everything you say. ;) Am sorry am language student and can't help it; if you want to speak old peasant english you still have to get it right am that much of a pain in the ass.

Anyway, if it were me you meant, with the Jack Sparrow avatar, here be another:

A few pronouns probably wouldn't hurt either, eh? :p

*sigh* still waiting for the movie to come out in NZ. In the meantime, I will tide myself over by reading the Hand-puppet version. (http://www.jerrythefrogproductions.com/PiratesOfTheCaribbean.html)

[Nimrodel_White_Lady]

Ive seen the movie, like three times, and absolutely love it. Orlando looked cute with his goatee, and Depp had excellent acting! He pulled his character off so well. Though, I have to admit, my favorite pirate was a tie between the one with One eye and the monkey :p

[durin's bane]

I loved PotC. Orli was so hot....*ahem* Anyway, really good acting in there. I loved Johnny Depp. He did an excellent job on his character. I loved Orlando, too. *sigh*

[Dreran the Green]

I forgot to post this, but I just recently (finally!) saw it with turtlelover. And it was great! Jack was, of course, the best! (and turtlelover and I did prove that scientifically, we had a contest with Oreo cookies about whether Jack or Will was hotter)

Am above pronouns! :D

And that Hand puppet thing is so amusing. :rolleyes:

Shuddup. It's all I've got. :mad: *Goddamned NZ getting movies last!*

[Varda Oiolosseo]

I loved the Pirate with one eye too lol! He was so funny. It was funny when he got that fork stuck in his eye. lol.
No the best bit was when him and the other guy were in the boat with the dresses on. lol

[Nimrodel_White_Lady]

I know! That was hilarious lol, I also liked it when they were in the caves talking to each other, and holding open the umbrella's over themselves, then the guy walks past giving them a wierd look lol. Quite funny really... lol

[Nimrodel_White_Lady]

Hey, there is going to be a PotC 2! There's like some major rumours flying round, and I think its a definate, it should be coming out next year!

[Dreran the Green]

That would be great:D Hope you're right.

I heard that too. I hope there is, but it best have story and be good. If they can't think of a story, then I sure hope they don't as don't want to ruin it.

[Nimrodel_White_Lady]

I know what you mean, people keep doing sequels, and they turn out, like, the same as the previous ones... overusage

[durin's bane]

And Disney has made a habit out of doing direct to video sequels. 0.0 I can see it now:

"Pirates of the Caribbean 2: The Adventures of Will and Elizabeth"--animated! Featuring the voices of Michael J. Fox as Will, Drew Barrymore as Elizabeth Swann, and Mark Hamill as Jack Sparrow! Also featuring Shaq as the new villain--Barby, Barbossa's son!"

I'm weird. :rolleyes:

[Dreran the Green]

The scary thing is I can completely see that sort of thing happening:eek:

*Screams her head off* *Goes to find her head*

[Varda Oiolosseo]

that would be horrible!

I have just remembered a bit that made me laugh so much!
When Jack and Will are planning to steal the ship and they are walking under the water with the boat over them. And then it does a long shot and you can just see them plodding along and then Will gets his foot stuck in a crate thing and then there is another long shot and you see them plodding along again but Will's got this crate on his foot.

lol! i found this part hilarious! :D :D :D

[Lalaith]

Ui, Spoilers, Spoilers.
I should rather not look into this thread ... the film is coming out some time in September in Austria.

[Dreran the Green]

:D My favorite part is when Jack shouts "STOP BLOWING HOLES IN MY SHIP!!!", and then he picks up the bottle of rum to see if there's any left:D

EDIT: Argh, I didn't see your post Lalaith! Sorry!:(

Barby???:confused:

you forgot Ewan McGregor as Barbossa's evil twin they always try to double up on baddies in sequels to make it sound more exiting

Fav. bit has to be when Jack's crew steals the Pearl and the ghost pirates say "bloody pirates". my it sounded a lot better in the film.

But I like savvy, savvy? It sound's cool! Besides, what about those people that go around saying 'dude' after everything they say (not here, but some people do)?
Well, I never took English, but I'm totally facinated with words, so about savvy, 'that's ve-ery int'resting'.

Oh, I saw it again, and I watched aaaaaaaaaaallllllllllllllllllllllllllll the credits and finally saw Jack take the coin out again. Arrg! Stupid monkey.

That thing about POTC2 w/ Drew Barrymore and Mark Hamill (?!) is hilarious. I nearly fell out of me chair, savvy? (just gotta annoy Elfmaster!)

Oh, say, did anyone watch the monkey when Barbossa says "Not you, we named the monkey Jack." The silly monkey does this little grin thing! Oh man it's sooooooooo funny!

[Rosie Gamgee]

Sorry to double post. Say, crickhollow, where ever you are, the reason I said (in the now-closed topic 'Jack Sparrow?') that Capn't Sparrow lived in the 1800's- well, now I'm thinkin' late 1700's- is because Jack said that the Black Pearl was the last real pirate ship in the Caribbean. If that's true, then the 'golden age of piracy' or whatever you call it would have been over by the time the movie is set in, so then it had to have been a ways after the 1600's and most of the 17's. They never do tell you what year it is in that movie.

To be honest, I have never met anyone who said 'dude' after everything and was being serious. Like that little turtle guy in Finding Nemo. (Is that out yet?) Mocking it is. And There is absolutely nothing wrong with you using savvy, as a word, but out of context it sounds like the person using it doesn't know what it means, savvy? ;)

*twitches* That's okay, Rosie. I won't murder ye in thy sleep. :rolleyes:

You're right. The whole timeline of the thing is not worth bothering with. Historically the movie is about as accurate as a bottle of shower gel in an Ancient Greek movie. For example. Our dear Elizabeth would've been wearing a corset since she was about 4. And her whole attitude would've had any girl locked up by any father of the time. But it doesn't matter because the movie was great.

[Varda Oiolosseo]

:eek: it was more than great! It was Brilliant! :P ;)

I seriously can't get over how good it is! :D

You are right. I have found my one true love in this movie. And no, it is not Cap'n Jack or Will, though Sparrow is pretty fine.

It's the Pearl. *drools* She's such a fine ship. And the Interceptor too. It hurt me to see her sink. I love big old ships like these two.

[Varda Oiolosseo]

I loved Captain Jack Sparrow too though Will Turner was my kinda guy ;) :p
<-----------

I Love big old ships too! They are amazing and I loved the Black Pearl it was just so creepy the ripped black sails and everything. wow amazing :D

It's not a hull and a rudder and sails- that is what a ship needs. But what a ship is- what the Black Pearl really is- is freedom.

P.S. What about the HMSDauntless?? Doesn't anybody like 'er? She is the power in these waters . . . savvy? ;)

[Elfmaster XK]

Well, I did notice the avatar, yes :D The Pearl was so dark and mysterious. Mmm...

The Dauntless is a nice ship too, very grand. But a little big to commandeer, if ye see where I'm comin from. ;) It is a nice ship, but I prefer the other two to be fair.

[Khamûl]

Another one of the best lines in the whole movie: "Quit blowin' holes in my ship!" -- Captain Jack Sparrow :D

[Varda Oiolosseo]

lol that is funny! I love the whole film it's hilarious and just cracks me up.lol
I like these quotes too:D

[Rosie Gamgee]

I love the part when they're in the Faithless Bride and Jack is trying to get Gibbs to notice Will, and he's like nodding and grunting. "That there is the child of Bootstrap Bill Turner. His . . only child . . savvy?"

"Why is the rum gone?!"

"You cheated."

"Just doing my civic duty, sir."

"I can't breath!" Plop. :D

"We named the monkey Jack."

"Mostly we figure that means 'yes'."

"Do you suppose he wasn't tellin' the truth?"

"Then Robert's your uncle, Fannie's your aunt, and there you are with two ships, the makings of your very own fleet. Of course you'll take the grandest as your flagship, and who's to argue? But what of the Pearl? Name me captain, and I'll sail under your colors, give ye ten percent o' me plunder, and ye get t' introduce yeself as . . . Commador Barbossa."

:D :D :D :D :D

[Varda Oiolosseo]

I love the part when they're in the Faithless Bride and Jack is trying to get Gibbs to notice Will, and he's like nodding and grunting. "That there is the child of Bootstrap Bill Turner. His . . only child . . savvy?"

I loved that bit too!!! I was nearly crying coz it was so funny. Me and my mates oh and my mum has started now too lol when we are talking we will start nodding and grunting lol.

Yay i'm seeing it again tomorrow!!!! I LOVE it soooooooo much!i'm bringing my friend who hasn't seen it yet!!! :eek: :D

[Salquënòrëwen]

I found a list on the internet of things to do while watching PotC so, me and a few of my friends tried them out. We had a lot of fun, but i don't think the people around us did....;)

We also stayed to see the scene at the end. We waited about 10 minutes for a 5 second clip...
But it was worth it, now we know what everyone is talking about. :) :rolleyes:


PotC Count: 7 times :D

[Varda Oiolosseo]

OMG!!!!! I love this film so much!!! I love it!!!!!!!!

i saw it again today and i have only seen it 5 times so far lol!

AND I found the script for the whole film today It is sooo good to keep reading it over i can just see the film in my head lol!!!!!!!!

I'm so happy! :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D

[Grey_Wolf]

I suppose this is ONE movie one simply GOT to see in a theatre.

[Salquënòrëwen]

I heard that the VHS/DVD is supposed to be released in December! Woo-hoo! :)

[Varda Oiolosseo]

Yay!!!!!!!!!

I bought Chicago the day it was released and there was a leaflet inside the case advertising Pirates of the Caribbean on DVD and it hadn't even been released in the theatres!
lol i found it really funny. :D

[Strongbow]

my favorite ride along with haunted house and maelstrom. also seen this movie twice sofar. its awsome. I'm a major jonny depp fan and this film made me wanna watch fear and loathing (yet again.)

[Rosie Gamgee]

Oh boy oh boy it's almost laughable how much this movie catches you. I saw it once, and totally fell in love with it, just can't get enough of it, and here's everyone else doing the same thing. I don't think I've ever seen a movie that caught on so much with people. Weird. And cool . . . SAVVY? :D

[Legolas_Frodo_Aragorn]

it was a great movie!

johnny depp was great and hilarious! BRAVO he plays a drunk extrememly well
and orlando was just the hottest

i love when johnny is sailing into the dock and you see him up on the bow, then it zooms out, and you see his ship sailing...:-)

[Varda Oiolosseo]

lol yeah and then when it sang i was in tears. lol

I loved these two too lol....

Murtogg: Ah, the Dauntless is the power in these waters, true enough, but there’s no ship that can match the Interceptor for speed.
Jack : I’ve heard of one, supposed to be very fast, nigh un-catchable…the Black Pearl.
Mullroy: Well…there’s no real ship that can match the Interceptor.
Murtogg: The Black Pearl is a real ship.
Mullroy: No, no it’s not.
Murtogg: Yes, it is, I’ve seen it.
Mullroy: You’ve seen it?
Murtogg: Yes.
Mullroy: You haven’t seen it.
Murtogg: Yes, I have.
Mullroy: You’ve seen a ship with black sails, that’s crewed by the damned and captained by a man so evil that Hell itself spat him back out?
Murtogg: No.
Mullroy: No.
Murtogg: But I have seen a ship with black sails. [ Jack slips away while they banter]
Mullroy: Oh, and no ship that’s not crewed by the damned and captained by a man so evil that Hell itself spat him back out could possibly have black sails therefore couldn’t possibly be any other ship than the Black Pearl. Is that what you’re saying?
Murtogg: [nods] No.
Mullroy: Like I said… there’s no real ship that can match the Interceptor.

[Rosie Gamgee]

The best part o' that hole sequence is when Jack rolls his eyes at them when they're not looking. Sooooo funny.

Why does everybody take Jack for drunk all the time? He isn't. The only time he got drunk was on the island he is governor off when he was with Elizabeth. The rest o' the time he's just walking on his sea-legs.

I quoted the whole movie through!! I know, weird of me, but I did it. The only lines I really forgot were all the commands: "Heave to", "Hoist the mainsail" . . . all that sort of stuff.

[Millane]

ohhhh i really wanna go see this movie:( it opens tonight at midnight and normally id only go for a great movie (such as the matrix or Ned Kelly etc) but i only have history and Literature tommorrer so i might... decisions decisions:(

[Lalaith]

Hurray! Won two tickets today. :D

[Varda Oiolosseo]

WEll DOne! :D

I'm seeing it again very soon! :D


Me and my friend sit in lesson and while we are working me manage to get through the whole script between us lol it's really funny we each have parts lol and we fight with pens lol.

*cough* yes we are supposed to be the mature ones in school too lol seeing as we are the oldest lol

[Sheeana]

I have seen it!





It sucked eggs.





But Jack was cool. :D Have I mentioned my undying love for Johnny yet?

Btw: what happened in the scene after the credits? It flashed by too quickly for me to see what it was showing. :rolleyes:

[Rosie Gamgee]

Jack took a piece of gold out of the chest and made himself cursed again . . . cuz he's STUPID. Dumb monkey.

[Insidious Rex]

Ok you guys really need to get lives...

I liked the Depp character. He was a good foil to Bloom's smarmy genuiness. And he had the whole Groucho Marx meets Indiana Jones thing down pat. But his permenantly drunk mode kept reminding me of Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas.

[Varda Oiolosseo]

Ok you guys really need to get lives

:eek: But Pirates IS our life! :P



lol i think you may be right in some respects lol.

[Rosie Gamgee]

Whatcha talkin' about? We like our lives ... *prompts everyone else to agree* DON'T WE?!

[Salquënòrëwen]

Jack is great. He just such a cool character. Will on the otherhand is terrible. He's an idiot. Elizabeth is a Mary-Sue character in my eyes. Barbossa is cool. I think Geoffery Rush did a really great job with him. And I like the monkey...:p

PotC Count: 10 times

[Ruinel]

Just saw it. Wish I hadn't. I enjoyed the special effects, but the acting was pushed and not believable. Johnny Depp has done so much better (and looked much hotter). Orlando Bloom was horrible. (Can he act at all? I'm just wondering. :p) Keira Knightly sucked. (How did she get her job anyway?) Geoffrey Rush was the only decent leading actor among them. I did find the scene with the pirates in jail tempting the dog with the keys funny. :D

[Yapaluna]

It was the best movie I have seen for a long time.

It was real FUN. The movements of Jack Sparrow are caused by anything else but NOT because he is drunk all the time. It must have been due to some ancient injury (like Eric the Half-a-bee)

or Cyril Conolly

Semi-carnally?

[Rosie Gamgee]

I'm writing a novelization of Pirates, just for fun. (Please don't tell me I need to get a life, cuz I already know that)

[Varda Oiolosseo]

wow! impressive! :D

I would never say get a life lol i'd say go girl lol!

I was going to go and see it again today but i would have to be ill wouldn't i :rolleyes: so my friends have gone without me oh well i will have to make up for it when i'm better and see it twice insted ;)

[Evenstar1400]

i wanna go see it again. ive seen it 4 times and my parents wont let me spend money on it again. BUT ITS JUST SO GOOD!!!

definitely up there w/ LotR.

that movie inspired me to be a pirate for halloween. hehe. going to go round school singing pirate songs, bumping into people in the hallways, and attacking people who say i look stupid.

[Varda Oiolosseo]

Same here my mudoesn't like me seeing films more than about twice she says i'm wasting my money.

I've seen Pirates 5 times but my mum thinks i've seen it twice and i have seen other films insted :o but if she asked i wouldn't lie i'd say i'd seen it but i just say i'm seeing a film. ;) :p

[Rosie Gamgee]

I have the words to the pirate song that they sing in POTC. I'll try to post them here for those who want to sing it (don't have them all memorized just yet- 'cept the 'really bad eggs' part, lol).

btw, Evenstar (please don't think I'm trying to be Miss Goody-Two-Shoes, just thought you'd like to know), the quote that's in your sig goes

JACK: "Very well, I confess. It was my intention to commandeer one of these ships, pick up a crew in Tortuga, and then proceed to raid, pillage, plunder and otherwise pilfer my weasly black guts out."

(LOL, I love that part- I love the whole movie, in fact:D )

[Eowyn, Lady of Rohan]

I like Pirates of the Caribbean soooo much!!! it almost beats LotR! :eek: Is Orlando Bloom hotter in Pirates of the Caribbean or Lord of the Rings ?

[Varda Oiolosseo]

impossible choice! He's hotter than hot in both of them!!

It's out on DVD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! woohoo!!
I went into shop today and saw it and started dancing and there are adverts on TV all the time and i sit there grinning like a Chesire cat :P But i got to wait until christmas :(

oh well i can dream! nd stare at my posters ;)

[Goldberry1]

i got the DVD today... well, i guess my mom went out and bought it (she's a johnny depp fan), and it was on my bed when i came home. havent watched it yet (darn homework), and i probably wont be able to watch it till the weekend.

[Varda Oiolosseo]

Wow! Lucky You!!!!

My friend got it for her Birthday on monday too and she keeps watching it and then telling me great it is :rolleyes: And i'm like i know i've seen it a million times but i really want to get it!!!
But i'm going to hers to watch it at the weekend! yay!

Hey, it's only a couple of weeks untill christmas!! :D

[Rosie Gamgee]

Orlando Bloom is definately better looking in Pirates. After seeing it, and then seeing him in The Towers, he looks pathetically rediculous in the blonde wig and blue contacts. I like him better with his natural color hair and eyes.
YAY!! The DVD came out! I'm very happy. I can't watch it until Saturday (mom bought it and we all have to watch it together. the rest of the nights this week are busy:mad: :( ) I;m going back to walking around talking like Jack Sparrow again, though. Singing pirate songs and wishing I had a flintlock and a cutlass. :D Fun fun, can't wait. I'm going to watch it about 50 million times before I ever get tired of this movie. :D :D

He doesn't look rediculous, he looks like and elf.

Johnny Depp WAS great! Orlando Bloom was excellent too (how can he have been horrible? his acting's fine) and Keira was fine and yeah Geoffrey Rush was good.
I think they cast the film perfectly. :)

Sorry :o Just sticking up for him :D

I was humming the soundtrack today and saying savvy and everything lol.

[Catgirl]

Hm, I thought that Johnny Depp was a great actor, Like always, but I did not think that Orlando Bloom did that good of a job. :rolleyes:He was sort of lame, and his accent got really enoying after a while. But the rest of the actors were good.

[Varda Oiolosseo]

:( he wasn't lame!! and wh...what was wrong with his accent?
:confused:

[Catgirl]

Well, his accent was a little too British or English or whatever it is, it got on my nerves!:mad: I think he could have atleast toned it down a bit, because the way he said things and acted, it did not go together so good. But he is still cute!:D

[Elvengirl]

Orlando IS British, he natively speaks with a British accent.

His British accent was, IMHO, brilliant.

I have a hard time deciding wether Bloom is a good actor or not, but he did indeed seem a bit lame, compared to Depp (which did an excellent job, so that's not very surprising).

I thought much of the acting was very good (as mentioned, I have some problems with Bloom).

The movie was (again IMHO) very good, and there aren't many good pirate-movies out there (of course, nothing can beat "Pippi Longstocking on the Seven Seas"! :D ;))

[Eowyn, Lady of Rohan]

[Lady of Darkness]

I. Totally. loved. this. movie
what was your favorite scence out of the movie?

Will : Where’s Elizabeth ?

Jack : She’s safe, just like I promised. She's all set to marry Norrington, just like she promised. And you get to die for her, just like you promised. So we're all men of our word really except for Elizabeth who is, in fact, a woman.


Barbossa: I must admit, Jack , I thought I had ye figured. It turns out that you’re a hard man to predict.

Jack : Me? I'm dishonest, and a dishonest man you can always trust to be dishonest... Honestly. It's the honest ones you want to watch out for, because you can never predict when they're going to do something incredibly… stupid.


hehehehehhehhehehehe

did you know that they're gonna make a second one? hopefully they won't ruin it...

LoD

[Rosie Gamgee]

My favorite part is the one titled 'Pirates of the Caribbean; the Curse of the Black Pearl'. I have soooooooo many favorite parts that I can't help but say I love the whole movie.
Ummmmm, I'll name a few parts that are really great, though.

Sparrow's face when he sees Will up in the rafters. I love the grin, and then the way his face falls.

The huge CLUNK when Will breaks the candle holder.

"I should have told you every day since the moment I met you.. I love you."

"This is a beautiful sword. I expect the man who made it to show the same care and devotion in every aspect of his life."

"That would be the French."

"You will then spend the rest of the journey contemplating all possible meanings of the phrase 'Silent as the grave'. Do I make myself clear?"
"Inescapeably clear."

"WHY'S THE RUM GONE?!"

"It is my intention to comandeer one of these ships, pick up a crew in Tortuga, raid pillage plunder and otherwise pilfer my weasly black guts out!"

"Mr. Cotton! Do you think you have the courage and fortitude to follow orders and stay true in the face of danger and almost certain death?"

"Not all treasure is silver and gold, mate."

"But I can't get this ship into Tortuga all by my onesies; savvy?"

"ELIZABETH!!" (from Norrington and Will)

I have tons more, but I gotta go now. Namarie mellonea nin!!

[Goldberry1]

heeheehee...

Barbossa: Why, thank you, Jack.
Jack: You're welcome.
Barbossa: No, we named the monkey 'Jack.'

ah, i just got through watching this movie 'bout half an hour ago, and i swear there is this one scene where the names 'Will,' 'Elizabeth,' and 'Jack' are said as three separate lines one right after the other... gah! now i can't remember when it was! it just sort of struck me as funny while i was watching it... :rolleyes:

pretty much everything Johnny Depp says is funny to some extent, he definitely made this movie. i don't think it would have been anywhere near as good as it is without him.

[Lady of Darkness]

lol, you're probably right......

I'm still trying to figure out where both Norington and Will say "ELIZABETH" at the same time.......... GAH it's driving me crazy......

LoD

[Varda Oiolosseo]

did they both say Elizabeth at the same time?
I don't remember that... :confused:

The classic quote for me, has to be from Johnny Depp...

"But why is the rum gone?"

" She’s safe, just like I promised. She's all set to marry Norrington, just like she promised. And you get to die for her, just like you promised. So we're all men of our word really except for Elizabeth who is, in fact, a woman."

[Lady of Darkness]

well, Rosie Gamgee said that they did in her post, and i quote:

"ELIZABETH!!" (from Norrington and Will)

yea that's it..but i don't remember it and i watched it lately...maybe my brain is going....that's probably it...

LoD

[Rosie Gamgee]

Nononono!! They both say it at seperate times (Norrington when she faints off the cliff, Will numerous times- my fave being when he's trapped in the hold of the Interceptor during the battle). They never say it together, that's not what I meant.:( Sorry for confusing you.
More faves:

"You think this wise, boy? Crossing blades with a pirate?"

"Me hold is burstin' wi' swag. Tha' bit o' shine matters t' us. Why?"

"Oh, well if it's so worthless there's no point in me keeping it."

Gibbs: "Well, I'll tell ye. He waded out into the sea, and he stayed there three days and three nights, 'til all manner o' sea-creatures became.. aclimated to his presence. Then, on the fourth morning, he roped a couple of sea turtles, lashed 'em together and made a raft!"
Will: "He roped a couple of sea turtles."
Gibbs: "Aye, sea turtles!"
Will: "What did he use for rope?"

"How's that? the key's run off."

Jack: "Anna Maria!"
Anna (*slap!!*): "You stole my boat!"
Jack: "Actually- " *slap* "-borrowed!! Borrowed it without permission! I meant to bring it back."
Anna: "But you didn't!"
Jack: "You'll get another one!"
Will: "A better one!"
Jack: "A BETTER one!"
Will: "That one."
Jack: "What one?" *looks* "That one?! Aye! That one!"

"If you were waiting for the opprotune moment.. that was it."

Barbosa: "You expect t' leave me standin' on some beach wi' naught but a name watching you sail away with my ship..?"
Jack: "No. I expect to leave you standing on some beach with no name at all, watching me sail away with my ship, and then I'll shout the name back to you, savvy?"
Barbosa: "That still leaves us with the problem o' me standin' on some beach with naught but a name and your word it's the one I need."
Jack: "Of the two of us, I am the only one who has not commited mutiny. Therefore, my word is the one we'll be trusting. 'Course, I really owe you a thanks. If you hadn't marrooned me on that island, I'd have an equal share in that curse right along with the rest of you. Funny ol' world, ain't it?" *proffers the apple*

Another one of my absolute favorite parts in the movie has no words at all. It's right after Sparrow and Will fall to with the swords in the smithy scene. The clanging of their swords synchopates with the beat of the music for a few bars. The sound of that is sooooooooo cool! I just love that part!!

[Varda Oiolosseo]

lol oh rite i get you know. :) no problem.

I like it when Jack and Will are fighting on that waggon thing and they are on each end and it's just bobbing around lol

One of my favourite parts as well is, Johnny Depps entrance to the movie in that sinking boat and when Will breaks that thing in the governers house. lol

[Catgirl]

I also love that first entrance in the movie with Johnny Depp, it was probably the best part. He is sooo cute!:rolleyes: But so is OB

I also liked tha part when JD is making such a big fuss over 'The Rum!" :pThat was great. but I think that all JD's parts were good, he just played Jack really well.

I still have not gotten the DVD yet, but I am going to get it on Friday and probably end up watching it atleast 5 times the next day:D

[Lady of Darkness]

ohhhh I get it now.... ty for clarifying that Rosie Gamgee...

Jack: No! Not good! Stop! Not good! What are you doing? You burned all the food, the shade! The rum!

Elizabeth : Yes, the rum is gone.

Jack : Why is the rum gone?

Elizabeth : One, because it is a vile drink that turns even the most respectable men into complete scoundrels. Two, that signal is over a thousand feet high. The entire Royal Navy is out looking for me, do you really think that there is even the slightest chance that they won’t see it?

Jack : But why is the rum gone?

best part.....

LoD

[Lalaith]

Did I tell you that finally even I managed to see the movie? Yay.

[Lady of Darkness]

YAY YOU'VE SEEN IT NOW!
but you didn't see it before??!!!
THAT DOESN"T MATTER YOU"VE SEEN IT NOW!
isn't it like, awesome???!!!

LoD

[Lalaith]

Actually it was already in September but I didn't have the chance to post it.
Then I had it on DVD (some friend burned it for me).
I started to watch the first part. Wanted to watch the second part and it didn't work. Was kind of stupid.

[Lady of Darkness]

yes, but sometimes Stupid is good
Lalaith, have you noticed that when WE post, everyone else goes away.......

LoD

[Lalaith]

Only a coincidence. Not our fault.

Yah, but it was really stupid, only seeing one third of the movie. I planned a nice evening and then it didn't work.

[Lady of Darkness]

only a coinkidink? i don't think so...i don't think they like us much.. lol ah well

LoD

[Lalaith]

Should I call for Linaewen? I know that she likes me .... hehehe

maybe they are coming back

[Lady of Darkness]

doubtful..very doubtful... I think we're way to scary for them.. really.... BWAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHA lol jkjkjkjkjkjk

oh yes...do call for her...someone will not be scared of us..

LoD

[Lalaith]

yah, really have to ask her if she has seen the movie ....

[Garina]

Ok, I admit it, one of the main reasons I originally went to see this movie was because Mr Bloom starred in it. And because I love the ride and was curious to see what new marketing ploy Disney had come up with now. However, I absolutely loved it, and found myself liking Mr Depp's character far more. I am casting no slurs on Orlando's acting, as I thought it was great. However, Will Turner is naive, wet (occasionally in a good way - after swimming from the Interceptor ;)) and quite boring. Captain Sparrow was amusing and complicated, and I was most unnerved to find that I found him far more attractive. I was aware that people considered Johnny attractive, but having only seen him in Edward Scissorhands before, I hadn't agreed.

Anyway, I was impressed that Disney actually managed to produce a (relatively) adult movie, or rather, a movie for those of us who refuse to grow up and still dream of piracy on the high seas. :D

My favourite scenes were definitely the ones with Jack and Elizabeth on the island, including the deleted one on the DVD.

End of random babbling.

[Eowyn, Lady of Rohan]

I like the rum part too! :) I also like:

(During Will and Jack's sword fight)
Will: I do! And I practice with them 3 hours a day!
Jack: You gotta get your self a girl!

lol funny funny.
:p

[Lalaith]

Yah, that was really great.
Get yourself a girl. Hahaha.

[Lady of Darkness]

"or maybe you practice three hours a day because you've already found a girl and are otherwise uncapable of wooing said strumpet... you're not a eunich, are you?"

lol

LoD

[Eowyn, Lady of Rohan]

lol, they were all pretty funny! :)

[Rosie Gamgee]

I'm quite glad that they did not put that extra island bit in the movie. I liked her having walked all the way around the island and I like that they had him checking the flintlock (he was lucky the pouder didn't get wet), but I didn't like the thing with the scars and the bullet holes. It fit with Jack's character, sure, but it took too much away from his mysteriousness.
I do love that part:
Barbosa: Thank ye, Jack.
Sparrow: Your welcome.
Barbosa: Oh not you! We named the monkey Jack.
The grin on that monkey's face sends me laughing every time: :D

p.s. Has anybody watched the commentaries? The one with Jack Davenport and Keira Knightly is hilarious: "You need a stunt girl for running up stairs?!" I haven't watched all of it yet, but the one with Gore Verbinski and Johnny Depp is great, too. I love it in the beginning when they're talking about "Young Mister Bloom" and how he wanted to be 'cool like Johnny', but Verbinski kep telling him "You're not cool yet! Your still a dork!" and he'd be like "Oh, right, dork!" :D lol

[Lady of Darkness]

behbehbehbeh! DON"T! i don't even OWN the movie yet...please refrain from telling me this stuff until tomorrow... now i REALLY will be annoyed if i don't get it.... WAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
aiya..my computer has PMS..badly..

LoD

[Elvengirl]

There are commentaries?
Memo to self, must buy/rent DVD.

BTW you guys are hilarious. :D

[Khamûl]

I got this movie for Christmas and have watched it several times already.

Orlando Bloom's best line: (discussing the origins of Captain Jack Sparrow) "So that's the reason for all the... *does Jack impression with arm motions and quizzical looks*" That cracks me up every time.:D

[Lady of Darkness]

I think i'm going to go jump around like an angry jalapeno pepper... EVIL PARENTS DIDN'T BUY IT! ah well...will convince them.. yes yes preciousssssss...sorry..been watching TTT Extended for 3 days straight..lol

and thank you Elvengirl for the compliment!

I think that they did a really good job with the casting in PotC.. that has got to be one of the funniest movies... i love the way the writers wrote Jacks lines and the way that Johnny Depp acted it out...he did an AWESOME job i think..and the countering of him with Will/Orlando...awesome...

LoD

[Elvengirl]

Well, surprise for me, I was given the movie for Christmas. :D

[Falagar]

Lucky bas- ...good ol' friend! You can spare a movie to a poor Norwegian, right? ;)

[Lady of Darkness]

I can't wait until i get mine...3000000 years from now
LoD

[Elvengirl]

I watched it this afternoon and it really is a great movie. :D

One particular line off the top of my head which I enjoyed-

(Will has his sword pointed at Jack)
Jack:Put it away lad. You wouldn't want to be beaten again.
Will: You didn't beat me, you cheated, you ignored the rules of engagement, in a fair fight I would have killed you.
Jack: Well that isn't much incentive to fight fairly is it?

Umm what was it you were going to say? :p You can tell me ol' friend ;) Now if I were to give up this rather nice gift, which I was given for Christmas, well what would I get out of it? ;) :D

[Lady of Darkness]

being loved by many..doi..isn't that the perfect gift?

LoD:p

What about eternal friendship? ;)

[Lady of Darkness]

I definatly think that eternal friendship is much more promising than holding onto such a wonderful gift... don't you *puppy dog eyes*

LoD

[Elvengirl]

Well, I must say it is a nice offer and Falagar did offer it first, sorry LoD. So Falgar do ya think you can send some snow down here as well? ;) :)

[Falagar]

Perhaps you could ask her to buy another copy. ;)

Well I could probably dig up some ice from the garden, though I'm awaiting snow to come in some time during this week. ;) At the moment, however, we need every snowflake we can get down here...:(

[Catgirl]

Hey, I was just wondering if anyone else knew what Jack Sparrow was telling the two Guards when Elizabeth fell off the wall. He finished by saying, "...And they made me their Captain..." Does anyone know what he was talking about? :confused:

[Rosie Gamgee]

I think he was just keeping them enamored with a tall tale. Featuring himself as the hero, of course. Probably so that when he was finished he could talk them into going and getting a bite to eat or something so he could steal the boat- ship, ship!- out from under their noses. Elizabeth's fainting wasn't in his plan, I suppose.;)

[Elvengirl]

lol I'm not exactly loaded here. :p :D And you know I really like this movie, I think I might go watch the commentary tonight. ;)

[Lady of Darkness]

*sniff sniff* i understand....i'll just go hijack some other kind person to buy it for me... *tear* :p

LoD

[Ninquelote]

Ooooh, PoTC... My favourite movie EVER. I've seen it at least eight times, three times in theatre... Man this is good.

[Lady of Darkness]

PotC... oh gosh that's a funny movie.. i think i might die of laughter at some point...lol

LoD

[Ninquelote]

Seen it nine times now, just to study.

Cannons, technique, swordsmanship... Stuff like that. I'm going to buy some books on piracy so I can roleplay effectively.

nope, parents hate me.. lol..jk...I need to get it.... MUST FIND! lol

LoD

[Eowyn, Lady of Rohan]

Some one should make an RPG of PotC:tCotBP

[Lady of Darkness]

I FINALLY GOT ITTTT!!!!!!!!!
do you realize that they're making a sequel to PotC? oh i wish they wouldn't....they should be satisfied with that one..because it was really good! to quote the director " how many good pirate movies are really out there?"

LoD

[Lalaith]

I heard about it before and I didn't like the idea at all. Sequels are never as good as the original movie.
They should be satisfied with ONE good movie.

[Catgirl]

Hmm. I'm just wondering, if they made a POTC sequal, what would they do with it?
There is not that much of a plot left.
I mean, other than the fact they could have a movie with Jack sparrow and the black pearl, I don't think there is much left you can do with the story.

And yah, most sequals are just a desperate attempt to get some more money.

[Lady of Darkness]

besides, the sequel cannot in anyway be as good as the original. not one little snowflake of a way.

LoD

you know, it would just figure if it was better...it would be ironic...

[Lalaith]

Maybe the just get Elizabeth kidnapped again. Or something like that.

But that story is OOOOOOLD!

Right, an obvious attempt to earn some more money.

[Lady of Darkness]

Somebody go smack them! But i get Orlando Bloom and Johnny Depp... :D :p

LoD

[Catgirl]

Hey, just a question...What if Will and Elizabeth get married and they have kids int eh next movie? Feeaky idea.

[Lady of Darkness]

that would be interesting...I wouldn't really like it... you know it would probably be less of a Pirate Movie then...

LoD

[Elvengirl]

Yea that's origional :rolleyes: ;)

I wouldn't be happy to see a sequel made. It's better to end on a successful movie than to make another which is almost never as good.

[Lady of Darkness]

and yet they go on making it, just like they have this past age( sorry..... needed a wierd random quote...)

LoD

[Lalaith]

Originally posted by Catgirl

But is it really a Pirates movie then?

[Lady Ravyn]

i just can't picture Will and Elizabeth qith kids... they wouldn't be able to go on any pirate-y type adventures!

[Lady of Darkness]

my thoughts exactly Lady Ravyn. because can you imagine it? "come on Elizabeth we're being attacked!" "WEll I'm TRYING Will, but the children aren't ready!" "why did we ever have them in the bloody first place??!!!!"

lol...that's my interpretation.... lol

LoD

[Lalaith]

Maybe they are having their children kidnapped or something and therefore Will and Elizabeth are asking Jack for help.
Just a thought.

[Lady of Darkness]

that would be good..but just not the same... but knowing them they'll make Elizabeth or Will be captured again by some old geezer. oo..i have an idea..during their wedding day... same ol plot eh?
oo they could have Will's life as a pirate and how Elizabeth has changed and everything... and then how they are called to help Port Royal defend itself..yea...that's it...

LoD

ps...it's not really a bad idea

[Rosie Gamgee]

that sounds a bit like Hook only without the green tights lol :)

[Catgirl]

I heard that they were going to do th second POTC on 'Treasure of the Lost Abyss' which refers to the first Pirate ship that sailed in the Caribbean. That might be cool.:D

[Lady of Darkness]

OOOOOOOOOOOOO... yummy... I mean, even if it is a sequel, I'm still gonna go see it because i mean, it's Johnny Depp, one of the greatest actors of all time, Orlando Bloom, who is really good also and Pirates. What else could you ask for??!!!

LoD

[Lalaith]

hmmm, maybe a plot?

Well, I'll wait and see. All this thinking doesn't help. We will have to wait.

Hmm, as usual in these movies weddings can never be just perfect, there has to be something stupid, so I guess they are spoiling the wedding with something.
