I liked all three movies, so I guess to each his own.

Haven’t seen any of ‘em, maybe never will, but I read that no silver halide molecules were harmed during the “filming” of this latest one.

You absolutely must find a way to have the Disney movie link directly to your webpage.

I really like (and own) the first three movies. Will be adding the 4th to that list soon I’m sure.

I loved the first one (probably one of my favorite movies).

I fell asleep during the second one, but saw most of it.

I've never been able to make it all of the way through the third one.

I guess I'll give this one a shot when it hits DVD.

>I liked all three movies, so I guess to each his own.<

Good to know...I was in #3 in the last scene with multiple pirates. They had an ad in Craiglist in L.A., made sure everyone was in their pirate outfit and was shot over 5 days in Long Beach. Over 250 “pirates’ showed up. Even my business partners back then joined in. Sure, we were never paid but there was free food for 5 days of fun. And no, my line was not ‘YAAAAARRRRR’. We were assigned to Keira Knightley’s “ship” and she had a great bod.

Yes, all three made an excellent trilogy but most reviewers only feel power when tearing something down... ebert comes to mind.

That is so cool! I loved the first one. The others not as much. I love Capt. Jack Sparrow.

Agree with you reviews. Loved the first one, Second one was blah and the third sucked so hard, prostitutes were complaining about the competition.

“Haven’t seen any of ‘em, maybe never will...”

The first one is truly LOL funny! And it’s disney, so it is clean, maybe just a tad racy in parts, and scary at times, but a very amusing flick.

The Commodore was the unsung hero of the first movie, and quite a bit of the glue that held it together. That, and the fact that I liked Jack Davenport in "Coupling" and he had no problem in this dramatic role.

The first film, everyone kept to their principle and ideals -- right down to the two comic relief Navy man who saw the ghost pirates and instead of jumping back into the water in terror, they gave each other a look and charged into a battle they couldn't possibly win.

Everyone betrayed their ideals in the second movie, and by the third movie, everyone was a pirate.
