The sequel is coming out soon. CAN"T wait. I'm not sure if its going to be good or not though, because sequels are always iffy, especially with disney. But Jack Sparrow shouls make it worth it. =). i really didn't like elizabeths character though. she was really annoying. but Keira Knightly is a good actress, just a little conceited.
It took me a bit, but I finally figured out that POTC is Pirates of the Caribbean. As the original was good clean fun, let us hope the sequel, if there is one, will be too.
There is going to be a sequel, called "Dead Man's Chest"; you can already watch the trailer for it on the net, even.
And I thought Miss Swann and her accent were quite lovely.

Yes, the trailor was good. i saw it in theatre when i went to watch narnia so it's been a while. and for sure there gonna be a third one too so BONUS.
i still dunt like miss swann
i still dunt like miss swann
im sooo goin to c that, along with my entire class probably.....
I don't know if you guys noticed, but there was a full moon everynight. And how did the Black Pearl sail if it's sails are all ripped. Also,in the beginning of the movie, non of the bullets hit jack when it was open fire. In history, the "P" was suppose to be burned into the pirated forehead and not the arm. But i guess all disney movies have things in it that dunt make sense in them.
Yeh, and the pirates of the Black Pearl were undead skeletons!! Jeez, that movie doesn't make sense at all! Man, it's gotta be some weird fantasy adventure movie, don't ye think?
;-P
;-P
Im still looking forward to see it on big screen
Omg! i saw the newest trailor. Now im having a heart attack. i think something is going on betweeb elizabeth and jack. i got jelouse, lol, i love Jack sooo much. i don't think i can handle all this waiting. *** elizabeths character sounds better in the second one***
i've been waiting for ever for this sequel to come out and i can't wait till july. somethings going on between jack and elizabeth!!!!! poor will.
Yeah.. it took me a while too to figure out it was Pirates Of The Carribean! I loved the first one.. It had suspension, love, mystery, action and a funny drunkard! What more next?? When the next one comes out, i will certainly be seeing that one to see what will be instore!!

i just got back from a trip to Washington D.C. (capital of America, ring any bells?)
anyway, while there we also went to jamestown where there used to be the state court of Virginia and the guy there said that they would brand people on the hand with the crime they commited, R for rape, t for thief, p for piracy...
so i guess it would very where the brand went

Should it? Just another city in the world... I'm quite happy with my Mumbai, thank you.
Anyway, I liked the first one. I liked Depp. Hope the second one is good too.

As for as I know, it's the capital of the United States of America. America is a continent, hence consisting of many countries, although I am aware that many inhabitants of the USA like to use that name as a pars pro toto for their own country. I never understood why, though. Amerigo Vespucci must be rolling in his grave.

I particularly enjoyed the music /soundtrack in the first one. (Not to mention Mr. Depp's captivating performance along with an excellent story and rather amusing and clever adaptations of scenes from Walt Disney's theme park ride of the same name).
I'm looking forward to going to see the sequal in Hollywood on opening weekend. (yay!)
BTW, to whomever (Virumor?) was being picky about the word "America"..... it isn't merely citizens of the USA who call themselves Americans, nor is it only US citizens who commonly refer to their country as "America". The rest of the world does it, too.

Okay, let’s get back to the movie. How about we do a lil quiz.
First question:
How many times does Jack get slapped in the movie? (curse of the black pearl)

third question:
How many identical peices were in the chest of cortez?
third question:
How many identical peices were in the chest of cortez?
999 in the chest, only lacking the one that caused all the trouble?
no, but that is a good guess!
Anyone else wanna have a go ? (Or Grondy you can try again)

2 (pigs)?
863 (pieces of curs’d gold)?
I know I'm wrong on one if not both of those.
greenleaf, I'd like to console you somehow about how terrible it is that you have to wait till it comes out on dvd to see it, but hadn't we all better wait and see if it's any good before handing out consolation prizes? If it's terrible, I shall have wasted rather a lot more money than anyone should spend on a mere movie to go see it, and you'll have to be consoling me!
Predict plot details of the next film! Who thinks Bootstrap Bill is going to show up as part of Davy Jone's crew?

That would be so dry if he was a part of Davvy jones crew. And lets hope it isn't a bad movie, so that you wouldn't be wasting your money in seeing it, and i'll be satisfied that the wait was worth it.
BTW, the amount of pigs was right, so YAY POUR VOUS! lol. but unfortunatly, you didn't get the amount of curs’d gold correct. But u were very close, so yay pour vous again!
Ne one else wanna give a go, or should i post the answer and the next question?

Number of coins? 666 in honor of today's date, but not in honor of the beast.
Can you imagine being born on this date? just think that there are thousands of babies being born around the world, with the devils number as their birthdate.
That wasn't the correct number, though. sorry. i think it time i post the answer, which was 882 identical coins made.
fourth question:
Before he became commador, what was Norringtion's title?

Lover-boy?
Sorry, it has been a while since I watched the movie.

LOL. no actually, it's none of those. here's a hint. it starts with a "L", and end with a "T".
Aw, Left-tenant or Lieutenant as some people more like me are want to say.
That's right. YAY GRONDY!!!!
next question:
who was it that placed the curse on the gold?

hmmm...no one. okay then i'll go on to the next question.
how did Jack really escape the godforsaken island the first time?
how did Jack really escape the godforsaken island the first time?
He caught a lift with some rum smugglers? (I've only watched the movie twice, but I do own the DVD letterbox version.)
Right again. Grondy i think your the only one that replies to this.
ok let's have the next question:
When does Jack say this line

DEAR LORD. now i am dyeing. i want to see the second and the THIRD! Jack you've done it again. i can't believe Elizabeth and the commador. grrr. wow. GASp
Someone rescue her from Johnny Depp please! Or should it be the other way 'round?
I watched PotC: Dead Man's Chest earlier this afternoon in the theatre with buttered popcorn and a diet cola. I laughed my buns off and really appreciated those pirate exercise toys: the Bucky-ball and tread wheel. I remember when my kids got their first gerbil; we had an eight inch diameter clear plastic ball that the gerbil road in and rolled all over our living room rug, which was fun to watch, but we did have to put the cats out when this was going on.
So, how do the Scandinavians pronounce 'Kraken'? I pronounce it crack-ken
I'll buy the DVD when it comes out.

I saw it today, and I guess it was OK... the first 75 minutes are tedious, as nothing seems to happen safe some Monty Python like sketches but in the hour after that things get better.
I think Mr Bloom actually did a rather good job in this film, compared to the first POTC movie and his last vehicle, Kingdom of Heaven.

Finally I saw it last nigth with my father We both had a good laugh at some of Jack Sparrow's comment's ! Johnny Depp does an excellent caracther . I too agree that Orlando Bloom did a better job in this one .Anyway I had a good time at the movies
