I absolutely hated what they did with Chow Yun Fat, Will and Elizabeth's story was utter twaddle speak, and it was like Johnny Depp was sleepwalking through that mind trip scene. Another thing I didn't really care for was the fact that you didn't really see Sparrow until about 45-50 minutes in. He's the main attraction, with Barbossa being a close second; the ambiguously androgynous duo were not.
That could have been a great movie series if they didn't try so damn hard to make a franchise out of it. If 2 and 3 would've been standalone movies, it would've been loads better.
Well, Jack was not in a majority of it because they had to do all this work to bring him "back to life."
Agree with last statement but it seemed like to me 1 was a self contained movie. Then it made a lot of money and they decided to make it a 'trilogy." And to do that they went the cost conscious route and filmed 2 and 3 together (sort of like Matrix 2 and 3). And in doing that they made 2 and 3 like one LONG movie instead of episodes to an end.

Blasphemous. All of you.
If it's on TV, I have to watch it, and can't stop until the end.

and my roomie, who owns the movie, said i'm too analytical. well yes, perhaps. the movie was like stargate, but waay less cool and comprehensive.

I have fouind the 5th Element to be intolerable. I can't watch more than 5 minutes of it before I change the channel.

I'll admit that no matter how horrible At World's End was - and it was, it had an amazing action sequence there with the maelstrom.

You are correct. Also, the absolute disentigration of the bad guys boat immediately after it was just awesome.

Takers / dvd
--Not bad. The ensemble cast meshed pretty well. My only thing is that TI tried to be TI too much. The audio commentary on the movie was pretty good.

Oh, I loved Patricia Clarkson and Stanley Tucci; they were fantastic.
