Reborn Outcast Posted November 12, 2003 Posted November 12, 2003 I just now remembered that Pirates of the Caribbean is coming out on DVD soon so that lead me to thinking... Who here liked Pirates of the Caribbean? I thought it was an awesome movie, the best one I had seen since The Two Towers came out... There was just something about it that was really appealling. So, who here liked it or disliked it?
Chewbacco Posted November 12, 2003 Posted November 12, 2003 Hey what do I say? I think it was better than expected. Bottom Line: It was Awesome
mariners2001 Posted November 12, 2003 Posted November 12, 2003 I thought it was waay too long personally...It was decent but nothing special. Keira Knightley's beauty and Johnny Depp's acting carried the movie.
Joetheeskimo Posted November 12, 2003 Posted November 12, 2003 It was ok. I don't really know why. It just didn't make me jump up and down with excitement.
Father Torque Posted November 12, 2003 Posted November 12, 2003 I thought it was a great movie. Just I dont like some of the actors they chose. But the woman, (Dont remember name), she was fine. Well I vote Yes:)

jokemaster Posted November 12, 2003 Posted November 12, 2003 AWESOME!!!!!!!!!! It had everything: Action, Adventure, Pirates, Skeletons, Comedy, Romance, Swords, Guns, Cannons, Johnny Depp.
ET Warrior Posted November 12, 2003 Posted November 12, 2003 Best movie this summer by far. Nothing else even touched it.
The Truthful Liar Posted November 12, 2003 Posted November 12, 2003 Yarr. Captain Jack Sparrow be I. Fantastic movie actually, I do think we need pirate smilies now. X_O
Reaper Girl Posted November 12, 2003 Posted November 12, 2003 Jack Sparrow! he makes all the cheesyness worth it. Dead people. pirates. Joooohmnrkoemnggknl Depp! YOu kiddin' me, right? people ACTUALLY HATE PotC? dsfgds
golferbr Posted November 12, 2003 Posted November 12, 2003 Awesome. I am the first person in here that has yet to see the movie, but I have heard good things about it so when it comes out I will be looking forward to seeing it.

You sir, are a FOOL for not seeing it!!!! Oh, and by the by, I'd just like to mention to everyone that I do actually know this fellow for reals, and he IS a fool!
txa1265 Posted November 12, 2003 Posted November 12, 2003 My wife and I went to see it on one of our rare kid-less times out (boys stayed with my parents ... we got a hotel room ~15 minutes away )... ... it was time well spent. There was an interesting story, interesting characters with depth, no pseudo-intellectual mumbo-jumbo, and good acting ... everything you didn't get in a Matrix movie in 2003 (unlike in 1999 ) Funny thing is - my wife is not a 'repeat viewer' ... which means I drive her nuts as someone who saw Star Wars about a dozen times as a kid ... so I don't know if we'll rent or buy the DVD.

Joetheeskimo Posted November 12, 2003 Posted November 12, 2003 Originally posted by Chewbacco Wow you take movies seriously I guess. What I meant was, I think it didn't really have anything that made it uniquely special. It was just your normal action, skeletons, romance kind of movie.
toms Posted November 12, 2003 Posted November 12, 2003 i think this movie clearly shows how your expectations can affect your opinions. I think most people who saw it weren't expecting anything special, so they came out very happy with it. Unfortunately, due to the film coming out much later in the UK than the US I had already heard great things about it, so i found it to be rather disappointing. I thought it was an average film, made above average by Johnny Depp and kierra Knightly. It's still one of the better films of the year, but then this has been an awful year for movies. I'd put Kill Bill as my fave of the year, followed by X-men 2 with PotC and T3 tied for third place.
Clemme w/Stick Posted November 12, 2003 Posted November 12, 2003 Until December 17th this will be my fav movie of the year, and that says a lot ! -Clemme
Troopr-Undr-Fir Posted November 12, 2003 Posted November 12, 2003 Dude, what else do you need besides Keira Knightly *insert drool here* I don't know why she was complaining about the corset, I think it was very becoming of her...yes I am a perve , but what can I say it did it for me
Pie™ Posted November 12, 2003 Posted November 12, 2003 Awesome! Johnny Depp is the king!!! and to think that it was made by buena vista, a part of disney!!!
Lost Welshman Posted November 12, 2003 Posted November 12, 2003 The only reason it was any good was because of Capin' Jack Sparrow! Johnny Depp made the film great. It would be a pathetic action film without 'im I've made a pirate sig, but it's nothing to do with the film so don't go thinkin' it!
Jared Posted November 12, 2003 Posted November 12, 2003 Johnny Depp's humor was cool, and kept me entertained throughout the entire movie.....^^ and the fight scenes, and the story, all awsome. I cant believe disney could produce something that good.
Jaden007 Posted November 12, 2003 Posted November 12, 2003 uh......never saw it ....... *runs* ( before make any comments)

The previews didn't give a clue on what i twas going to be like and I didn't read any rave reviews or any reviews for that matter, so I came in to the theater thinking it was going to be "just another movie." That might be why it was so good.
