Pirates of the Caribbean: At World's End

[Blitz]

Trailer is out: http://movies.yahoo.com/feature/piratesofthecaribbeanatworldsend.html

Looks pretty good. Discuss.

[Kane Knight]

The Windows Media Version froze on me, so I'm waiting for the QT version to load. :mad:

[Kane Knight]

Good Lord, that looks awesome.

[Shaggy]

I love that scene when they are sword fighting up in the sails and the camera is just swerving around...

Looks pretty bad ass...I actually waited all night last night to check it out. Only to find out that it was shown on Dancing with the Stars...I would of sat through that crap just to see this trailer

[Disturbed316]

Didn't really like the first one, second was ok, this should be good.

[ron the dial]

God, that movie is going to be fucking tits. Can't wait.

[Champion of Europa]

I loved the first one and hated the second. The trailer for the third looks ehhh to me.

[ClockShot]

So, who's doing Keira Knightley nowadays? Lucky bastard.

Plus.........CHOW YUN FAT IS IN THIS MOVIE!

And it comes out a few days after my birthday. What a nice gift.

[wwe2222]

trailer looks great...cant wait for this film to come out.

[El Fangel]

I have to go clean up the mess, Ill be right back.

[Splaya]

Think about this. Spiderman 3 comes out May 5th. This comes out 18 days later. May is gonna be huge in the movies

[Boondock Saint]

Sweeeeeeet.

[mitchables]

Jack Sparrow > everyone.

[Downunder]

I thought the first one was ok (but overrated) and I never finished watching the second one, it bored me to death so I turned it off after 30-40 minutes. This looks like more of the same.

[Kane Knight]

2 Days before mine. And, by extension, Sascha.

[Kalyx triaD]

HOT DAMN!! I didn't mark-out like that to Spidey's trailer.

[Skippord]

Jack Sparrow > everyone.
Jack Bauer > Jack Sparrow

[Kane Knight]

Skippord, you are dead to me.

[wwe2222]

Jack Bauer > Jack Sparrow

not since season 6 got a couple episodes in

[Kane Knight]

I love the part where Sparrow's told he's crazy.

[Downunder]

Jack Bauer > Jack Sparrow

[Kane Knight]

Jack Bauer sucks ass.

[Kane Knight]

Besides, when's the last time Jack Bauer walked into the mouth of a Kraken?

[D Mac]

Jack Bauer sucks ass.

And so does 24.

[Kane Knight]

No argument from me.

[Skippord]

Jack Bauer eats Kraken's for breakfast

[Downunder]

He doesn't even pour milk on them, he eats the fuckers dry!!!

[Kane Knight]

Jack Bauer eats pieces of shit like you for breakfast
Jack Bauer eats pieces of shit for breakfast?

[Ninti the Mad]

gotta love adam sandler humour

[Kane Knight]

He's a Genius, he is.

[D Mac]

Happy Gilmore > Jack Bauer

[Kane Knight]

Opera Man>Jack Bauer. And that Opera Man shit is some of the gayest shit on the fucking planet.

[Shaggy]

"Four of you have tried to kill me in the past....One of you succeeded."

best quote in the whole trailer along with the reaction right after it when they are looking at Keira

I dunno. The whole "You're crazy" bit is pretty effin' awesome.

[wwe2222]

I dunno. The whole "You're crazy" bit is pretty effin' awesome.

i concur

[Kane Knight]

That scene literally had me laughing out loud.

On another note, this is the first trailer that's had me hyped up for a movie in ages.

[YOUR Hero]

I liked both of the first two. The first moreso, but yeah, this should be good.

[Avenger]

Just watched Dead Man's Chest today, cannot wait for this.

[Avenger]

Kinda in love with Keira Knightley. She was going out with Northern Irish model Jamie Dornan for ages there (he went to my old school actually) but the broke it off. She's single now I believe. I hate myself for knowing that much.

[Kane Knight]

I liked both of the first two. The first moreso, but yeah, this should be good.

I'm not sure which one I liked better. The first was more consistent, but what I liked about the second was significantly better than the first. Though the second dragged at points, and the ending pissed me off to no end (We're not in the thirties, I didn't pay a nickel, and this isn't a serial).

I'm a real sucker for character development. That's why for me originals almost always win over sequels. Sequels tend to be about action, leaving little in new character development. 'We're supposed to know all about them already....' mantra seems to prevail.

[El Fangel]

The whole second movie pissed me off, it wasn't hardly entertaining at all, the classic my girl is in trouble I must save here at all costs, died in the fifties, then it was on to Jones' heart, what the fuck does it do? and why is Jones' a fucking mindflayer, and why is the Flying Dutchmen crewed by fucking merfolk, and I know im on a rant, but just wait, just wait.


WHY THE FUCK IS BARBOSSA STILL ALIVE?

[ron the dial]

Did you hear that there's a third movie coming out?

I would expect some explanations there.

[El Fangel]

THE MAN WAS SHOT AND KILLED BY A FUCKING BULLET TO THE CHEST.

[Kane Knight]

I'm a real sucker for character development. That's why for me originals almost always win over sequels. Sequels tend to be about action, leaving little in new character development. 'We're supposed to know all about them already....' mantra seems to prevail.

They spent a lot of time on character development in the second though, and establishing the world. Both of which are very similar, and both of which left the movie to drag in many places.

Dude, put the D&D book down before criticising a movie for a clichéd plot and oddities that don't fit.

WHY THE FUCK IS BARBOSSA STILL ALIVE?


did you watch the movie? or did you watch it with earmuffs on and a blindfold?

Jones' heart was explained....the flying dutchman being crewed by merfolk was explained...what the f is a mindflayer?

and you make it sound like Elizabeth was a damsein in distress...she got out of prison, made her own way to Tortuga to find Jack...stole the letters of marque by gunpoint by herself...handled herself quite well in a swordfight, and f'd over Jack.

[Kane Knight]

A mindflayer is a creater from Dungeons and Dragons.

They have like 8 tentacles around a mouth. They eat brains.

Something like that....

[wwe2222]

ah, thanks.

well the rest of my comment still stands

[Kane Knight]

Well, you're wrong. He obviously meant Will Turner was the Damsel in distress.

[Kane Knight]

Naw, not really. I just like to have fun with the people who seem to have nothing better to do than say "what? I don't understand plot elements that were explained in the movie! Plot hooks? Cloffhangers? What now?"

[Champion of Europa]

Yeah, going to watch this right now.

I'll let you all know.

[El Fangel]

Its not that Elizabeth was in distress, Its that Turner's character made it seem like she was and had to save her at all costs.

I did watch and Jones' heart and what it did still didn't make much sense, so could someone explain.

Mindflayers more or less look exactly like Jones'

You realize this is a fantasy movie, right?

[El Fangel]

Yes I Do Mike, I just disliked the movie and its plot.

[Jeritron]

You realize this is a fantasy movie, right?

I suppose, they just took a direction with it for the second movie that was much more outlandish than the first. I thought that was fine, but it did piss me off a bit that they're trying to make something epic out of what was a good stand alone movie.
Pirates is good, but I'm just not excited for a third installment already. I'm sick of the whole thing since the second came out a year ago and has been all over the place ever since. Overkill.

[Jeritron]

Pirates 2 was a tad on the ehh side. It dragged at times. It had it's strong points and it's weak points, like most movies I suppose. I wouldn't say I hate it or that it's bad. I just didn't like it nearly as much as the first, but it was okay. I saw it twice in theaters (with friends and with my neice and nephew), and actually own it on dvd but have never gotten around to watching it another time since the theater. Maybe I'll check it out before I go see World's End...maybe.
I must say, the third does look much better

[RP]

That scene at the end of part two where Keira Knightley locked Jack to the boat and kissed him and shit, made my cock move.

But yah i love the whole Jack Sparrow/ Knightleys charachter storyline.



Loved the first two movies and this one looks absolutely amazing i cant wait.

[Champion of Europa]

Better than the second movie, worse than the first.

Its extremely overbloated and 20 or 30 minutes could've easily been trimmed from it.

But it does have some enjoyable moments.

*SPOILERS*

<font color= black>I called Will Turner ending up as the new Captain of the Flying Dutchman about an hour and a half in.</font>

I was really wondering how it pulled off an PG-13 Rating, too.

Anyways, it's pretty much more of the same as the other two.

[Kane Knight]

I suppose, they just took a direction with it for the second movie that was much more outlandish than the first.

Really...How?

[Boondock Saint]

Anyways, it's pretty much more of the same as the other two.

Well that's all I'm really asking for. Sounds good to me.

[Kane Knight]

Hey guys, I'm thinking about catching the new Harry Potter movie, but I'm worried it might be much more outlandish than the first few. Any advice?

[Boondock Saint]

Nibble my penis?

[Kane Knight]

...On something I wasn't already going to do?

[Shaggy]

WHY THE FUCK IS BARBOSSA STILL ALIVE?

Must I remind you that Jack died in the 2nd one...and obviously he is around in this one...Might someone else of done the same thing to bring Barbossa back that they are doing to get Jack back?

[Boondock Saint]

I have a weird feeling Jack didn't actually die...

[wwe2222]

I have a weird feeling Jack didn't actually die...

I dont think he actually died...He gets stuck in Davy Jones' Locker

[Jeritron]

Hey guys, I'm thinking about catching the new Harry Potter movie, but I'm worried it might be much more outlandish than the first few. Any advice?

Dead Man's chest without a doubt took the series an entirely new direction. The first was big with fantasy elements, but nothing like DMC. And just looking at the new one, I mean they're sailing on sand and to the end of some flat earth waterfall. I haven't seen it yet so I can't really judge it fully, but it's a new direction with these sequels.

The first movie was a fantasy storyline about a pirate curse and a ghost ship, set with real humans in the real world during the British Emprie. It was a pirate movie. The second is of course a pirate movie, and deals with a lot of the same characters but it takes a new direction. Non-humans are introduced, sea monsters, witch doctors, and huge fantasy elements like sailing to the ends of the earth to rescue someone who was swallowed whole and killed, yet preserved through some supernatural trickery or portal into a netherworld.
That's fine, I'm not faulting it. But the first was a fantasy story about Pirates set in the real world. The second and third seem to be set in an elaborate fantasy world altogether, like Star Wars or Lord of the Rings. Whereas the first was a tall tale set in a real world, kinda like..Indiana Jones, or Terminator.
I just think it's obvious that they had no intentions for it to be as big as it was and when it was, they took the Star Wars approach and enhanced their direction and world.
Harry Potter was out there from the get go, and stays within that.

I'm not calling this a real flaw really, it's just an observation and I didn't really like it personally. I found Pirates 2 to be mediocre. I thought it often dragged, was more ambitious than it was able to pull off. I also thought at times it was a self parody or imitation with some of the things they did, especially with Sparrow. It was like they were trying to emulate what was cool about the first so hard, that it actually became forced.

Now I know you're all gung ho about POTC and Sparrow and you're amped for this movie, and that's fine. I understand that and don't expect you to change your mind. I want to see it too. This is just my opinion on the series taking a turn for the mediocre after a pretty decent first intallment, and I know I'm not alone out there. It certainly changed, for better or for worse.

[Kane Knight]

Great. We have sea monsters instead of zombies. Completely different direction. :roll:

[YOUR Hero]

It's going to rock.

[Y2Ant]

It did.

Bit of a sad ending kinda though. :(

The end fight was fucking immense.

[Shaggy]

I have a weird feeling Jack didn't actually die...

See I had that same feeling also...

but in the trailer he makes that line about the four of them trying to kill him...and one of them succeding....

That makes me believe that he did die....but hell I have no clue...Im checking it out tonight at the 8pm showing...and already got tickets to take family tomorrow to it.

[Ben Rodrigues]

Saw it last night. It's alright... drags a bit here and there - no where near as draggy as Spiderman 3 and theres a huge send off fight scene, but it's not anywhere near spectacular.

I haven't seen it yet, but you don't have to take the phrase "succeeded" literally.

[Shaggy]

I haven't seen it yet, but you don't have to take the phrase "succeeded" literally.

Oh I know...I was just saying...

anyways...Saw it a few minutes ago....It was an alright movie. I was more impressed with the first two than I was with this one. The fights were pretty good and the music was great just like the first two movies. I was a little angry at a few things they did....but sadly the one big thing in the movie that would of been shocking for me wasnt because it was given away basically in the 2nd movie.

I wish they would of stuck this with the 2nd movie because that would of been great.

I like how they leave a little tidbit in there about possibly a 4th one...

And YES...for those wondering...There is a scene after the credits just like the other two films...

[Boondock Saint]

Depp has repeatedly said he'd like to do at least two more.

[Shaggy]

Yea...I heard Depp say he would love to do more...

also heard that both Bloom and Knightly wouldnt like to do one again...

Spoilers (highlight of course)
and with the way the movie ends...and after the credits showing that Knightly and Bloom have a child 10 years later, I guess its safe to say that they wont be here for the 4th one and that their story is complete. Perhaps the next one will be about the "Fountain of Youth" like they hinted...and it will be both Sparrow and Barbossa in the movie...

[wwe2222]

saw it last night and loved it. more than the second one easily.

alot more of a fantasy film, but that didnt matter to me.

the 3rd act feels so epic in its battle and glad to have Barbossa back. Dont really want to spoil anything, Ill just say that the 3 hours flew by and I loved it.

[wwe2222]

I agree with your spoilers and def would not mind seeing that

[Shaggy]

Barbossa was the shit in that movie...him and Jones are two of the best things in the movie...

[wwe2222]

Barbossa was the shit in that movie...him and Jones are two of the best things in the movie...

:y: barbossa is my favorite character in the series

[Boondock Saint]

Off to see this now...Keira Knightley :drool:

[Boondock Saint]

Good times. Could have been trimmed by about half an hour though. Think part 2 is still my favorite.

[wwe2222]

Good times. Could have been trimmed by about half an hour though. Think part 2 is still my favorite.

you liked part 2 best? I think 1 is my favorite, then 3, and then 2. though I love all of them

[Kane Knight]

I have one major gripe with this movie, and as far as gripes go, it's still not all that major.


Yarrr, tharr be spoilers ahead.


Okay, how come everyone seemed to know in THIS movie that Davy Jones needed a replacement? That whoever killed him would have to take his place as captain of the Flying Dutchman?

Don't you think Bootstrap Bill might've mentioned that to William before letting him leave, or that any of the like 5 other characters who point this out might've said something at some point during one of the several scenes in which his heart is made an issue?

I loved the fucking movie, don't get me wrong. While it could have used with a couple of scenes being deleted, I never actually felt the movie dragged. But that one point, it just strikes me as RELALY bad storytelling. This is pretty CRUCIAL to the third movie, and since the second one establishes the third one, it would have been a good idea.

Since I already put up a spoiler warning, I'm liking the way they ended the movie, and the scene afterwards. If they end the series here, this is a good way to do it.

[Skippord]

Twas pretty good

[Jeritron]

Twas pretty awful. I wanted it to be good, I really did. It just wasn't

[Jeritron]

worst paced and told story/movie/theater experience since Lady in the Water.

[wwe2222]

Okay, how come everyone seemed to know in THIS movie that Davy Jones needed a replacement? That whoever killed him would have to take his place as captain of the Flying Dutchman?


they did mention this in Dead Man's Chest. Wyvern tells Will and Bootstrap that the Dutchman needs a heart and needs a captain.

[Kane Knight]

Did they? I'll have to rewatch.

[Mr Regal]

worst paced and told story/movie/theater experience since Lady in the Water.

That is the most mental thing i have seen anyone post in quite some time sir.

[ClockShot]

Got back from this a little while ago. Here's my thoughts. Spolilers will probably be mixed in. You've been warned.

It probably could have gotten chopped down about a good 30 minutes or so. I mean, cut down on the fucking tea drinking scenes or something.

Subtitles would have been great cause I could make out a damn thing Tia Dalma was saying. I only caught a few words total.

Lost mad interest in the movie when Chow Yun-Fat got killed off. He looked like a fucking prime player and I was hoping for some Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon swordfighting from him. :'(

Yeah, pretty much knew that with all the bullshit about the Dutchman, heart, captain being brought up left and right, the end was pretty clear.

The only humor I found in the movie was the stuff the monkey and parrot were doing. Nothing else got me laughing.

Keith Richards better give that jacket back to Captain Hook. That was I thought when I first saw him.

I wish they took the time to give some background on the rest of the Pirate Lords. Would have been interesting to know where they roam and what their claim to fame was.

Yeah I guess you can close the book on Will Turner and Liz Shaw. Unless something comes up.

All in all. Alright movie. Put it behind Curse of the Black Pearl, but ahead of Dead Man's Chest. Yes it leaves an opening to go to find the Fountain of Youth. Only time will tell.

[Jeritron]

That is the most mental thing i have seen anyone post in quite some time sir.

On which count? I think Pirates 3 was bad, I'm not alone. Either way that's just my opinion. But as for Lady in the Water...don't tell me you thought that was good too...?

[Jeritron]

I'm suprised everyone who has cared to post here enjoyed it. Everyone I've talked to and any review I've read has panned it. In the theater me and the people I was with were laughing hysterically at the end battle and that bruckheimer trash of the captain walking unphased through an explosion in slow mo. Nobody told us to shut up, in fact the strangers that hadn't gotten up and left in the rows around us starting laughing. I kid you not, It was pretty funny actually. That's just me and one theater's opinions though.

[Kane Knight]

All I got at my theater was applause.

Seriously.

[Kane Knight]

Well, when I watched the scene after the credits, which was ten years later, the six people left laughed at how Elizabeth hasn't aged.

[Jeritron]

I don't doubt you, but I assure you the theater I was at was disgruntled. I saw it Memorial Day afternoon though. I'm sure the reaction was different with a packed house of fans/fanboys at an opening day or midnight showing, which I'm assuming you went to? I don't mean that as a pot shot, I go to fanboy showings all the time. It's just a different crowd than your casual monday afternooners.

[Jeritron]

it's definitely got mixed reactions. I can only speak for myself and some friends when I say I hated it. I do still love the first and somewhat the second though. Critics pan it, but they can suck dick as in any case. After all, Empire Strikes Back got bad reviews from them...

[Mr Regal]

On which count? I think Pirates 3 was bad, I'm not alone. Either way that's just my opinion. But as for Lady in the Water...don't tell me you thought that was good too...?

My Point was, I completely disagree with you.

Oh and no i did not like Lady in the Lake. It was a fucking appalling waste of time and energy.

[wwe2222]

Well, when I watched the scene after the credits, which was ten years later, the six people left laughed at how Elizabeth hasn't aged.

I did chuckle at that too...maybe Jack shared the location of the fountain of youth eh? haha

Howabout a Saturday afternoon showing?

Yeaj, sorry to burst your bubble. I don't go to midnight showings. They're gay. Fuck, I rarely go opening night. Still gay.

[Kane Knight]

I did chuckle at that too...maybe Jack shared the location of the fountain of youth eh? haha

I'm sure he offered up a fountain to her, at least....

[Blitz]

It was alright. Not as good as Pirates 2. I thought it got bogged down in exposition quite a bit.

Loved the Keith Richards cameo. I thought it was just gonna be some jokey little thing, but he was badass. If there are more sequels, I hope he comes back.

[Champion of Europa]

I work at a movie theater and I hear what everyone thinks about movies, and most people seem to be disappointed about this one.

Also, I get seriously pissed off about 50 people waiting to see the stupid fucking end credits scene.

Next week, though, I can start lying and telling them there's nothing at the end.

[Better Than You]

The lack of an epic sword fight make me very unhappy. More of the same from this sequal, which isn't a negitive. Only this time it felt forced. I was dissapointed in this one, and while I will say it was the worst of the series I would like to add that it aint easy being on par with the standerd the origional left. Decent waste of three hours hours and MUCH better than the other summer block busters so far. (Unless you count 28 weeks as a blockbuster [and I dont.])
