  1. I noticed during the end of the GAoP that Memphis was

    Memphis History: A Chronology

    c. 1541
    Indians living near present-day Shelby County encounter the Hernando De Soto expedition.

    1739
    French explorers build Fort Assumption on Memphis site.

    1795
    Fort San Fernando de las Barrancas built by the Spanish.

    1797
    The U.S. gains control of the area; Fort Adams erected.

    a few different forts would it have been possible for an ocean going vessel to sail up the Missippi from the gulf and attack Memphis?

  2. yes it started as a riegonal site but it has people and crewes from all over on it

    have yall peeked at www.midsouthbuccaneers.ning.com by any chance

    Not trying to be smart, but midsouth buccaneers seems like ... the midsouth.. like texas and that, northeast/midatlantic most people assume to be, PA, DE, NJ, MD, NY, etc..

    I don't know if theres a miscommunication here, but I would assume so.

  3. I spread the word

    The production wants pirates who are, "Authentic-looking scavenger-types 18-60s, all ethnicities, especially extreme character types: thin, tall, short, odd features, huge nose, eyes, ears, lazy eye, grizzled and wrinkled faces, odd body types, missing limbs, teeth, etc."

    As for sailors they would like, "Thin and average build, good looking to extreme characters, British types, Spaniards, and other ethnicities, ages 18- into their 50s."

    Times and locations listed below!

  4. Disney Wants You To Show 'Em Your Tits

    By Garth Franklin Monday March 22nd 2010 11:20AM wench_article.jpg?1269279793 The other week a casting notice went out for a couple of crucial scenes on "Pirates of the Caribbean2_bing.gif: On Stranger Tides", the upcoming fourth film in Disney's mega-franchise. The notice required fit athletic women aged 18-30 with professional dancing, diving and swimming2_bing.gif ability.

    One noted requirement though - "MUST have real breasts. Do not submit if you have implants" according to the sheet. It's an effort to be historically accurate and actually quite commendable on the studio's part. Of course that didn't stop many on the Net having a field day with every breast-related pun you can think of.

    On the weekend however, a few new details emerged over at The Sunday Times about the sequences. Seems that casting agents2_bing.gif say "the bouncier the better" when it comes to the female extras for the film, "especially for sword-fighting action sequences".

    As a result, quite soon there will be what The New York Post dubs "a Hollywood-style jiggle-your-jugs test and jog for judges" that will take place during the upcoming costuming and fitting sessions. Those which are found to be false are out, no exceptions.

    The project marks a rare reversal on this position for Hollywood. Even this franchise in the past sought women with a 'bustier' look for the various 'saucy wenches' that populated the background and had no issue with them having implants.

    Filming on the fourth 'Pirates' kicks off in Hawaii around June.

  5. Bruckheimer On Cruz's Role In Fourth "Pirates"

    By Garth Franklin Sunday March 21st 2010 05:38AM pcruz_article.jpg?1269171513 Jerry Bruckheimer says that Penelope Cruz's role in "Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides" is as the daughter of the film's villain Blackbeard (Ian McShane).

    Appearing at ShoWest, Bruckheimer tells MTV News that "she brings a lot of humor to it. And the fact that she's so feisty." He also confirmed that there will be "a little romance between [Depp's] Captain Jack and the character that Penelope plays."

    Though Geoffrey Rush will be back as Barbossa as well, Bruckheimer says the story is "going to take a whole new direction" and they're "looking for some new kids to be in it" in supporting roles which are being tested right now.

    Filming on the next 'Pirates' film kicks off in June under the helm of Rob Marshall.

  6. Probably because of the scenes they're in. (Say, where is the ACLU on this one?) I'll bet that has to do with the mermaids. Sound like no skeletal mermaids after all... sad.gif

    The Silicone Equal Rights Collation LOL is the SERC a Hollywood favorite LOL

  7. Pirates of the Caribbean 4: No breast implants allowed!

    PiratesCasting-thumb-550x267-35712.jpgWhen Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides hits the screen, we'll be seeing sword fighting, swashbuckling and plenty of Johnny Depp. But one thing filmmakers want to make sure we won't be seeing?

    Breast implants.

    <A href="http://www.moviehole.net/201024092-exclusive-pirates-of-the-caribbean-casting-call">Moviehole has gotten its hands on the breakdown given to casting agents for the fourth film in the franchise, and one thing that description is quite clear about—natural breasts wanted.

    Here's the attributes they're hoping to find in the extras for a few key scenes:

    Beautiful Female Fit Models.
    Must be 5'7-5'8, Size 4 or 6 - NO BIGGER OR SMALLER. Age 18-25. Must have a lean dancer body. MUST have real breasts. Do not submit if you have implants. This is a show and tell of costumes with the director and the producers. Plan on an entire day of trying on clothes and being photographed.
    Professional Dancers who are Swimmers.
    Females ONLY. Age 18-30. All ethnicities. YOU MUST have an extensive dance/swimming resume. We will be shooting in Hawaii.

    Principal photography on the film, directed by Rob Marshall (Nine) and starring Johnny Depp, Ian McShane and Penelope Cruz, is supposed to begin in May or June, so casting agents—get to work!

Our scheduled events are all free to attend and your participation is encouraged. As you will see, our events are about the individuals and the roles they play in Shore Leave weekend.

    McShane Is Blackbeard In Fourth "Pirates"

    By Garth Franklin Tuesday February 23rd 2010 12:11AM mcshane_article.jpg?1266905512 Some casting news makes one jump for joy, this is one of those stories.

    Acting legend Ian McShane ("Deadwood," "44 Inch Chest") is in negotiations to play Blackbeard, the main villain of "Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides", the upcoming fourth film in Disney's biggest live-action franchise says The Hollywood Reporter.

    Born Edward Teach, the notorious English pirate Blackbeard captained the Queen Anne's Revenge and operated around the West Indies in the early 1700's.

    Unlike some of his more bloodthirsty brethren, Teach was a smart businessman who used his fearsome image and reputation rather than force to get what he desired.

    As previously reported, Johnny Depp will reprise his role of Captain Jack Sparrow in a story that revolves around the Fountain of Youth. Penelope Cruz was recently cast as the character's "foil and equal".

    Terry Rossio and Ted Elliot penned the script with Rob Marshall directing and Jerry Bruckheimer producing. The film opens next May.

    By Garth Franklin Tuesday February 16th 2010 04:15AM ti_article.jpg?1266329715 Ecosse Films2_bing.gif is moving forward with a contemporary adaptation of Robert Louis Stevenson's "Treasure Island" reports Variety.

    Much like the recent "Sherlock Holmes2_bing.gif", the project will update the 19th century tale with a 'hipper' contemporary sensibility and a stronger focus on the relationship between Long John Silver and Jim Hawkins

    Douglas Rae and Robert Bernstein will produce while Niall Johnson ("Callas") is penning the script.
