   Just finished viewing said movie and after all I've heard and read about it, I didn't think it was all that bad. If ya take POTC out of the mix, which all Pirate movies will be compared to, I would say it faired well. It took awhile to get used to Genna as a pirate, I kept thinking about "Stewart Little", but I finally bought it along with Modine as the swashbuckling scoundrel. Anyhow, that be my take on it!

   ...Then what's the best pirate movie? 1 2 3

   Okay... Someone said "Swashbucklers" was the worst pirate movie ever. But what would you say the best pirate movie is? I would argue the best pirate movie would have to be just like any other great movie--one you can watch over and over again. Where people who don't necessarily give a crap about pirates can view it openly and objectively, and still walk away feeling it's a great movie. I don't necessarily want to jump on the "Pirates of the Carribbean" bandwagon, but I would say it's the best pirate movie. It's well-made. Exciting. Good acting. Plus, the "cheez" factor is minimum, considering it's a Disney movie and based on a theme-park ride. Are there are ot…

   POTC plot holes... ***SPOILER WARNING*** 1 2 3

   First off let me state again how AMAZING this film is, what a landmark achievement it is, and how proud as hell I am of the cast and crew. I tip me hat to ya! So I'm sitting here in the office, mulling over the movie, replaying it in my head, yearning to see it again asap. Maybe it's just me, maybe I missed some key dialogue...I dunno. Check these out: What happened to the defeated pirate crew once the curse was lifted? I assume they were hung, but it's not shown. What happened to the treasure Jack made off with from the cave? One minute he's rowing back to the Dauntless with Will and Liz, draped in gold. Next scene he's on the gallows. Did he give it to Will so he…

    I do not know the answer to Mad Woman Cheryl's question, but I'll bet the music is remniscent of another composition rather than directly borrowed. I noticed that much of thos music is remniscent of something else or directly borrowed. Most of directly borrowed stuff is from the first soundtrack - sometimes the borrowed stuff is appropriate, sometimes not. Many of the uses are just plain odd. Take The Kraken track. I like this track and it gives the Kraken it's own ponderous motif, although it is interwoven with some organ music - music that sounds vaguely like the old Phantom of the Opera organ music. (Not Webber, the old Phantom organ music). Now this is weird. What do…

    Well now, seems that being in the right place at the right time can serve us well! I met a rather rougish and charming lad over last weeks end (at the Make A Wish Pumpkin sale really... ) who just so happens to be the lad that is sculpting the new POTC fugural dolls. Imagine that. He was having a wee bit of trouble getting the pictures he needed so I set him up with a few people and now his life is good! Heh heh.... talked about what figures they are making.... (a bit of eye rolling) I be willing to share I be!

    I was a bit shocked to find issue 5 of Pyrates magazine in my mailbox yesterday. Seeing as I got it only for a year and I rejoiced when issue 4 came. Too much nonsense in it. First off, if it is a subscription then I should probably get it before the pirate festival advertisement is almost a month past! Secondly, could you please have an issue that doesn't deal with POTC? The DVD is out. The trilogy overstayed its welcome. Enough is enough. I do not care nor need to read about a minor actor... nor about how to be the best Jack Sparrow you can be. Know what? Every convention I go to has at least 3 Jack Sparrows at them. Too many. Pyrates Magazine will no lo…
