I picked up a little POTC tie in th' other day--- Pirates Dice ("a game of High Seas Deception") Barnes and Noble had it fer about 20 bucks. It is well worth it. Supposedly it is "As seen in the Movie." Th' game consists of four Barnacle-encrusted cups and five pirate dice per cup. The object is to bluff yer oponents-- It is a blast! The dread Mrs Addams (cue scary music) Offspring from The Black Lagoon, and yers truly Spent the whole nite playin' it and havin' a great time. Check it out! BTW they also are sellin POTC Monopoly and Chess sets, but they be a bit more pricey---

The soundtrack must've been provided by the director's nephew who someday drea…

A fellow at the Wizkids forums for Pirates put together a java applet fleet building program. It can be found here: http://coljac.net/admiral/ It's rather intuitive and has all cards up to and including the Davy Jones expansion. I've found it tremendously helpful for putting a fleet together and tracking my collection. Enjoy!

I rode Pirates this past Sunday, loved all the little additions and all that, but wondered about Barbossa. As we came to the ship attacking the fortress scene I expected to hear Geoffrey Rush's voice for Barbossa. It just did not sound like him at all. I asked the rest of my group with me and they weren't sure either. It definitely sounds like Johnny Depp for that ending part tho, just before going up the ramp. Does anyone know about this? If it's not Geoffrey then who is it? :angry:

I stumbled across this one on youtube. I'm sure most of you have seen it but it was new to me. I love the animation style. Wish they'd do a feature length version. Pyrats

Alpha Home Entertainment has released 2 dvds of episodes from the 1956 television series - there are only 4 episodes on each dvd, but at least they are available for around only $6 per dvd. I keep hoping for the entire series to become available in the US the way it is in the UK, but so far no go. Didn't see any prior posts on this, so thought I'd mention it. I've seen them listed at DeepDiscountDVD.com, Amazon.com, and at the source of Oldies.com. Fair Winds....

Hello all, Here are some photos of the latest custom board that my studio has produced. This board, designed to be entirely portable and self contained, consists of two medium sized cases; measuring 18" inches tall, 24" inches long and about 6" inches wide. They each come with a nice brass handle for easy carrying. These two cases, when set onto a flat surface such as a table or countertop, clasp together with two brass hasps. The two sides of the cases then become a very beautiful hand painted and acrylic encased playing surface; measuring 24" x 36" inches. More than enough room for a good game of Pirates. A very handy feature to this portable game board is the hinged…

So I'm in Blockbuster yesterday I a spy this new arrival entitled "Pirates of Treasure Island". I figured that with the popularity of POTC 2 that a few other pirate movies would appear to cash in on the pirate fever. I scooped it up. It had Lance Hireknsand (sorry about the spelling) from Aliens, Terminator, and the TV show that was similar to X-files back in the late 90's. Can't be all bad if it has that kind of talent in it right? Wrong! It was painful to watch. They must have a had 4,000 budget and just shot it in a local park. This movie might be fun to watch if you drink everytime they do something awful.

I currently have 3 packs. Two of Pirates of the Spanish Main and one of Pirates of the Barbary Coast. At first, I thought it was just a card game like "Magic, the Gathering" and wasn't interested in playing. I just wanted the cool little ships that came with the game. Now that I've glanced over the rules, I see that it's really a sort of a miniatures combat & strategy game. So tell me... How many variants are there to this game? Apart from different ships in each variant, what's the difference? Do I need all the differet "flavors"? I notice the rules say to use 5-6 islands. Does that mean Ineed to buy more? Just how many do I need, anyway? What do you like about …

Not to be confused with the other thread about Caribbean Pyrates (I hope) two other offerings. Modern Marvels: Pirate Tech on July 9 at 7PM. Deep Sea Detectives: Blackbeard's Mystery Ship on July 10 at 10PM. So you can watch Pirate Tech and then True Pirates back-to-back.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Bou8wjt1Cx4 My friend Toby, so many know of him, was there to participate in this. He wasn't too happy to only make 2nd place, but hey, $2,500 is a nice chunk of change. And he got toys too! lol! Gotta wonder tho, it's a Pirates look-alike contest, they had some good looking Wil Turners, only saw one Elizabeth Swann in this video, but I'm sure there were more. The 3 winners were all Jacks, how odd! Here's also a link to photos on the winners: http://news.search.yahoo.com/search/news?p...3&c=news_photos

For those who went to see the movie at the Premiere this past Saturday at Disneyland have let their friends know what they thought about it. A couple of friends told me this. Not really any spoilers at all, but if you don't want to know anything at all, even tho this is just one person's opinon, then don't read on: . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . "I just got back from seeing Pirate of the Caribbean 2. I had a good time, but I have to be honest, my favorite so far is still the first movie. They put a lot of unbelievable and unecessary action scenes in this one. And it seemed like Jack was not even the main character, it seemed to me that Will Tu…

BONO has gone solo ... well, for one album anyway. He is one of many artists on a new compilation called Rogue’s Gallery: Pirate Ballads, Sea Songs & Chanteys. He does a version of Dying Sailor To His Shipmates. The 43-track double album was conceived by GORE VERBINSKI, director of the forthcoming Pirates Of The Caribbean: Dead Man’s Chest, with help from the film’s star, actor JOHNNY DEPP. RUFUS WAINWRIGHT does Lowlands Away with his folk singer mother KATE McGARRIGLE, while JARVIS COCKER sings A Drop Of Nelson’s Blood. ANTONY from ANTONY & THE JOHNSONS and ROXY MUSIC’s BRYAN FERRY do Lowlands Low. The album, by Anti Records, is out on August 22. found at: …

So I caught the rerun of the first episode last night on Bravo. Interesting... considering the one "pirate" act they showed in the commercials was so gawd awful. Never do your drugs before the show folks! They appear to have 2 other pirates, gals from the look of it, in the audience so maybe they'll be called up next ep or so.
