Pirates Of The Caribbean: At World's End

Blether about the third installment here.

I think it will be better than Dead Man's Chest but not make as much cash.

One thing I'm curious about, since we have our characters going to asia, does this mean that we could see an actual battle between pirates and ninjas?

I'm with Matt. I think this one will be a little better than the second but won't be quite the cash cow. It'll still be the second biggest movie of the summer (I'm banking on Shrek 3 to outperform in the long run) but it won't top Dead Man's Chest.

I'm excited to see it, although I think it would have been better titled "Pirates of the Caribbean: How Geoffrey Rush saved the Franchise"

I'm excited to see it as well, although I probably won't be able to make it opening weekend. Seeing Barbosa walk down the stairs at the end of DMC was a great thrill.

Better yet, we'll get to see ninja pirates.
Ninja are Japanese, and Chow Yun Fat is playing a Chinese pirate captain. What does that tell you?

Yeah. It was like one of those moments where the patient is dying on the table, has been in defib for half an hour, and you're about ready to accept that they're dead. And then, one last hit with the paddles produces a miraculous, unexpected heart beat, and you know that everything is going to be OK.

I'm curious as to why there haven't been any trailers out yet for this?

Erm, I'm pretty sure a link to the trailer has been posted at least a month ago. In case you missed it, here it is again.

I must have missed that. Gee, I guess I am getting old. But still, haven't seen it on the tube yet

Holy Hell! Bring it on! This is probably going to be better than Spidey.

I think this movie is going to dominate the summer, both quality-wise and box office wise. I can't wait to finally see what happens after Dead Man's Chest (which I completely, unabashedly loved). I'm so glad that it's out soon, and that we don't have to wait forever for the third one.

For anyone interested, there are new behind the scenes clips & interviews that are starting to come out, and they're very exciting - I think the "Captain Jack Sparrow" one is my favorite, but they are all definitely worth watching.

Man, I am so excited for this.

Just saw this.

As some of you may remember, I wasn't a huge fan of the second one.

It's an improvement over that, but still not as good as the original.

Sounds like it was at least better than Shrek 3

Not sure why this summer is the attack of the third, fourth and 28th installments, but such is life.

It's certainly not hard to be better than Shrek 3.

Yeah, I enjoyed Pirates 3. It's not bad. It has some problems, and it's often overly confusing for no apparent reason. But it's better than Pirates 2, for one, very good reason, which I will talk about once I finish writing my review.

Can't wait to read it so I can fully prejudge the film based on your review.

Well, if you thought it was better than Dead Man's Chest that means I'll probably really like it since I enjoyed the 2nd a bit more than you. Yes, I use Josh Tyler as my bar when predicting the quality of films I have yet to see.
