Panch Posted December 14, 2010 Share Posted December 14, 2010 No dreamy Orlando Bloom? Bah. Jk, looks awesome! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Iambaytor Posted December 14, 2010 Share Posted December 14, 2010 It's a cash-in to be sure, but I'm looking forward to a Pirates movie that doesn't have Orlando Bloom and British Natalie Portman in it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Panch Posted December 14, 2010 Share Posted December 14, 2010 Although, don't you think they're kinda staples? Isn't it not a Pirates movie without them? This movie should be called Jack Sparrow and the Pirates of the Caribbean. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This movie should be called Jack Sparrow and the Pirates of the Caribbean. So you're telling me the bland shallow romance of those two petty douche bags was what drove this series? Honestly, all they ever did was fuck up Jack's plans and back-stabbed everyone who ever had the decency to help them. Seriously, in a trilogy of movies filled with fucking pirates, the only more treacherous character than either of our charming couple was Captain Barbosa. Their comeuppance at the end of part 3 put a big shit-eating grin on my face. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Panch Posted December 14, 2010 Share Posted December 14, 2010 You're absolutely right about everything you mention above BUT didn't their storyline just give the Pirates world more, I don't know, depth? You know, other shit going on other than Jack Sparrow? Don't get me wrong... I LOVE Jack, but I've always looked at him as the ultimate supporting/comedy relief guy. Now its a movie all about him. I'm sorry, but I wanna see ALL the characters from this world we know. No matter how sucky. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maldron Posted December 14, 2010 Share Posted December 14, 2010 Their storyline didn't give any depth to the world. It was a romance in the middle of a long story about pirates, Davy Jones, and the goddess of the sea. They were in the world only because they loved each other, and they watched things happen in the world that would have happened independent of their insertion because they already existed before they pushed themselves into it.

Panch Posted December 15, 2010 Share Posted December 15, 2010 You know what? ME TOO! FUCK THOSE WACK CHARACTERS! CAN WE ALL CIRCLE JERK ON PICTURES OF THOSE TWO ACTORS?! YEAH FUCK EM! THEY TOTALLY DESTROYED THE PIRATES STORY! DOUCHEBAGS! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lycaon Posted December 15, 2010 Share Posted December 15, 2010 Well, if you want to take your opinion, spin it around, and take it farther in the other direction than we did, that's your silly business. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Genroh Posted December 15, 2010 Share Posted December 15, 2010 Oddly enough Bloom and Knightly were the things I hated about the first 3. I just wanted to see more of Jack "Pirate King" Sparrow. (and Barbosa). So this is Aces for me. Blackbeard for the villain? Epic! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Panch Posted December 15, 2010 Share Posted December 15, 2010 GOD I HATE THEM! THEY'RE SO BEAUTIFUL BUT NOT TALENTED! I HOPE THEY DIE IN A PLANE CRASH TO A REMOTE ISLAND THEY WERE HEADED TO TO HAVE CRAZY ROUGH SEX AT! YEAH FUCK THOSE FAGGETS! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr. Hakujin Posted December 15, 2010 Share Posted December 15, 2010 Fuck. I hate to pour a bunch of haterade on this thing, but does it seem like Depp is almost doing his impression of Jack Sparrow rather than playing Jack Sparrow in this trailer, or is it just me? In the plus category it has mermaids, zombies, and Ian McFuckinShane as Blackbeard, so I'm there wether Depp is on point in the role or not.

Drifter Posted December 15, 2010 Author Share Posted December 15, 2010 Jack is Jack; even in the trailer Gibbs is upset that Sparrow isn't acting normal only to have his concerns later assuaged. Ian McShane is awesome; good to have some Swearengen in there. My favorite Barbosa is back but in a King's Navy uniform?!?! The rest of the cast is great too. Personally, I'm looking forward to more unintelligible conversations with Keith Richards. And for Panch: There is, indeed, a doe-eyed young couple in there fighting for love in a crazy world; it's not just going to be two hours of Johnny Depp and Penelope Cruz flirting with their swords.

Of course that's what's going to happen, this is the fourth movie in a series. Name one series that Disney has been able to seriously maintain quality with, I dare you.

Reverend Jax Posted December 15, 2010 Share Posted December 15, 2010 Of course that's what's going to happen, this is the fourth movie in a series. Name one series that Disney has been able to seriously maintain quality with, I dare you. Presumably, Pixar doesn't count, cause Toy Story has increased in quality with each installment. I don't have the disdain for Bloom and Knightley some do, but there's no question that Depp made those movies what they were. You could have swapped out Bloom or Knightley for other capable actors and it would have been the same movie more or less, but swap out Depp and suddenly none of those movies are very enjoyable. I agree however that Depp does not look as comfortable in his role in that trailer than he did in the first three flicks. Hope it feels more natural in the full feature.

Iambaytor Posted December 15, 2010 Share Posted December 15, 2010 Pixar is Disney like Margarine is butter, it's yellow and it kinda tastes similar but it's not even close to the same thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
APANCHALYPSE RETURNS Posted May 22, 2011 Share Posted May 22, 2011 Saw this and liked it... but there was something that I can't put my finger on that bothered me. I don't know. Maybe others that have seen it can help me... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keth Posted May 22, 2011 Share Posted May 22, 2011 Saw this and liked it... but there was something that I can't put my finger on that bothered me. I don't know. Maybe others that have seen it can help me... It kinda bugged me that it didnt explain Blackbeard's magical sword, or where the mermaid took Mr. Christian. Maybe that? Unless I totally missed somethin there. Also didn't feel quite as epic in scale as the last three, but other than that nothing else rings a bell in terms of buggery :p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
APANCHALYPSE RETURNS Posted May 22, 2011 Share Posted May 22, 2011 The first one, yes (and I mean your spoiler tag). The second didn't bother me. I assume we'll find out in the next film. Maybe it WAS the lack of epicness. I still don't really know. But yeah, that first thing in your spoiler bothered me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maldron Posted May 22, 2011 Share Posted May 22, 2011 The fucking spanish at the end, Panch? "By the way, we came here to fuck up this shit, but when we earlier had the opportunity to totally fuck up the chalices we decided we had best polish them first. And when we arrived at the lighthouse we figured hey, let's not mess with that either." It wasn't exactly unepic, but the first thirty minutes had three different swordfights in it, and everything that followed was also more or less a swordfight, so we really had no variety in the epic.

APANCHALYPSE RETURNS Posted May 22, 2011 Share Posted May 22, 2011 I agree with all of that. While I did like the movie... I wanted to like it more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
