Saw the new Pirates of the Caribbean movie

[sistertrip]

I am completely in love (or lust?) with Captain Jack Sparrow - I found him strangely but immensely attractive! Wow! I just saw the movie - it's awesome!! I have no words to describe it.

Loved the movie --- I agree about Capt. Jack Sparrow - LOL!

BTW --- did anyone else stay til the END of the very long credits???

I did -- and there was a bit more "movie" after the credits!!!

Nooooooo...We always stay until the end of the credits, but the kids were tired, and it was 9:30. Was it really good?? Is it worth it?? We stayed through the end of Harry Potter II and the extra little bit at the end was good, but not worth the stay.

I saw a free preview on Tuesday night. I loved the movie!!
But I also didn't stay for the last bit after the credits... so I am going again tomorrow night. I will stay this time for the bit.

Yeah!! I can't wait!

Saw it last night and i have to say (honestly) it's the best movie I've seen all summer.

I'll have to see it several more times just to catch all the ride references because they go by so fast!

Make sure you stay until after the end of the credits - worth the wait.

WE went last night & loved it! the FX were great! But we did not stay to see the credits, the movie was packed! I guess I will have to see it again!

Ok, I guess I am out of the loop, but i did not realize that Orlando Bloom was the blond elf guy from TLOTR. I only saw the first "Rings" movie, and there were no photos of him on our store's laser disck (sorry, it's a dvd now), so........my "tweener" sister had to fill me in! This movie was worth the wait!

PS: We kept singing "A Pirate's Life for Me" out to the parking lot, and she was trying to get the rest of us to shut up. There are some hints of the ride in the movie, but not overtly so. Johnny Depp does a SUPER job!

My husband and I along with our daughter 17 and our son 14 just returned from the movie. We all really liked it. The references to the ride were great. The movie reminded me of the old Errol Flynn movies. It was wonderful. The bit after the credits was good. There was a preview for Haunted Mansion hope that one is just as good.

We saw it Thurs.....and LOVED it!!
Depp and Bloom are awesome!! They worked so well together!!!!
What a great mix of characters!!
I loved the way Will Turner transformed ! He seemed to start out with an innocence and evolved into quite the "rogue"!! But still the "good guy"!

We plan to see it again.....

But someone please tell me what the little extra was at the end of the credits??!

Just saw the movie It was awesome!!! They sang the pirate song from the ride and had some other small refrences to the ride. The actors were great, Orlando Bloom and Johny Depp did really well together! After a good deal of credits, trying not to give anything away, there is a short clip of film that may or may not be making way for a sequel, we discussed it the whole way home and that clips purpose is really in the eyes of the beholder. Good movie, highly recommened, disneys making a comback after tresure planet and has done a superb job. Cant wait to see haunted mansion, eddie murphy and disney attraction good combimation.

GREAT, GREAT Movie!

Two thumbs up!

Saw it last night at our local drive in. Double feature followed by Finding Nemo! We loved it. Even my husband who was somewhat skeptical. My ten year old son had his eyes on the screen the whole movie, and he caught all the ride references.
Johnny Depp was perfect in this part!

looks like it is a success. It has made over 70mill. since Wed.

DS & I went to see it on Fri. at the 1:25 matinee b/c it was too yukky outside to do anything else. Well, I think everyone took the day off to see it b/c the place was packed! DS accompanied me, fully dressed in the latest pirate wear from the shop right off the PotC ride -- hat, head wrap, monocular, etc. Made him leave the sword in the car!

We thoroughly enjoyed it, although DS watched some of the skeleton scenes while peeking through his fingers! But we both agreed that we'd love to see it again soon and, next time, we'll take Daddy w/us!

Johnny and Orlando made me swoon ... and, as someone stated, it reminded me of the old "swashbuckler" films. So much action, adventure and a little romance added in. Have to love the character of Elizabeth Swann ... she was not a "damsel in distress"/Disney princess type. Good to have a strong female character in a film!

One word says it all, Fantastic! Saw it last Saturday night and and will be going again this weekend. Made it half way through the credits at the end and my dd had to go to the rest room. So I missed the end. What did I miss?

I have watched the film twice with my fiance, and we both loved it. IMHO Johnny Depp's interpretation of the character added so much to the film, and turned what could have been just a typical "pearl harbour" type extravaganza to something really funny.
The effects were great, as was the score. If you can stay to the end through pages of credits... we did to find out the film locations, there is the possible hint at a sequel...(in true disney form... still awaiting cinderella 17..) involving the monkey and one of those cursed gold coins....

My only question.... if Will's father was also cursed for taking the coin, and then sent it to his son, does that mean Will was also cursed, (that would have been obvious at midnight?) or was Will's father trapped on the sea bed for years, unable to die.. nasty....???... ah well, its only a film...

remember, Will really never had the coin, the girl did in her dresser. and yes, his dad would have been like the pirate, since he took the coin like the rest of the pirates did, follows the rule of original sin.

Our theory is that if Will's father had participated in the theft then he too would have been immortalized which begs the question as to his fate.
