I. Love. This. Movie. ;D It's the second best, Lord of the Rings being first to everything , and it just rocks. I have to admit, the reason I went to see it the day it came out was to see Orlando in it. But the thing that brought me back to the movie theater three more times ((and it would've been more if my parents would've let me )) was Johnny Depp. That guy...he's a master actor. A genius onscreen. Completely down-to-earth, too. He was hilarious as Jack Sparrow. In fact, when the scriptwriters first created Jack's character, they envisioned him as your typical, swashbuckling pirate. Orlando admitted that this was how he pictured him as well. But Johnny had other ideas. He pictured Jack to be this swaggering, drunken character, a mix between Keith Richards ((Johnny said that he imagined Jack to be like the greatest rock star only in pirate form and to Johnny, the greatest rock star is Keith Richards)) and Pepe LePue. I love what he did with the character; absolutey BRILLIANT. The thing about Jack is people who don't really know him believe him to be this drunk, kind of stupid, slow character, when in fact he's cunning, devious and just a guy that no one ever gets the better of. He always has something up his sleeve. Rock on, Jack Sparrow.

Yep!! ;D Hah, xmas? Oh m'dear, I wouldn't last that long. I'll be the girl standings outside of Wal-Mart, awaiting 12:01am on December 2nd to get my hands on that DVD. Actually, I think I'm going to sign up for this deal at Blockbuster: when the PotC DVD comes out, they give you that plus seven movie rentals for seven weeks ((one per week)) all for $30. Now think: PotC...plus...SEVEN *additional* Johnny movies! ;D Oh yeah. I'm good. Anyway, yeah I absolutely cannot *wait* for the sequel! I think it's due to come out in 2005 or something like that. That's way too long to wait, but I'm sure it'll be worth it. There's even a rumor that there'll be a third Pirates of the Caribbean film. Someone posted that they had read that on LiveJournal. Apparently the scriptwriters have at least two more Jack Sparrow tales to tell. Whether it's one sequel or two, I'm definitely looking forward to it. ;D

I dont want to sound like the synical old fart that I am BUT here I go... I really like PotC dont get me wrong, but I think that the film makers may have got a little carried away with the success and may think that doing however many new sequels is a good idea but a 2nd would be okay but a third? That would be wearing a bit thin *dont throw your tomatoes yet* BUT I could so totally be wrong and i WILL eat my hat (If im wearing one) if I praise all the films for there great merit when the time comes!! Spread the love TGF

Ooh, that script site is actually saved to my favorites already ;D Too bad the screencaps section isn't working anymore... In any case, you may have a point. As enthused as I am about seeing more of Jack Sparrow on the silver screen, I do have my doubts. That's why my expectations are near to non-existent. I'm not expecting it to be as good or better than the first or anything of that sort, just looking forward to seeing our favorite captain back on the screen for another adventure -- that alone would make it worth it ((for me)) to go and see it. I've found that having high expectations is really only risking being let down, so I'm handling this just as I'm handling Return of the King. I've vowed to walk into the theater ((and this applies to RotK, PotC2 and possibly PotC3)) with an open mind, and no expectations. But hell, any movie that has Johnny's amazing acting on its side has to be at least good. I've seen six of JD's movies so far and I've loved all of them. So I guess the only thing I can do at this point is wait. And if PotC2 is, indeed, going to be released in 2005, then that'll be a long wait indeed. :-\
