Hawk the QM Posted October 1, 2008 Posted October 1, 2008 Short and Sweet. Time Bandits. Need I say more?
blackjohn Posted October 2, 2008 Posted October 2, 2008 (Global Madness Coordinator's note - I suspect a similar thread probably exists, but hey... whatever...) Treasure Island, Charlton Heston & Christian Bale version, no doubt about it. My Home on the Web The Pirate Brethren Gallery Dreams are the glue that holds reality together.
blackjohn Posted October 2, 2008 Posted October 2, 2008 haha... good answer! I'd like to see Treasure Island meets Band of Brothers. Now that would be a pirate movie! My Home on the Web The Pirate Brethren Gallery Dreams are the glue that holds reality together.

Ransom Posted October 2, 2008 Posted October 2, 2008 Muppet Treasure Island. ...schooners, islands, and maroons and buccaneers and buried gold... You can do everything right, strictly according to procedure, on the ocean, and it'll still kill you.

Hawk the QM Posted October 2, 2008 Author Posted October 2, 2008 (edited) Yaaaaaar! It's because of Tim Curry isn't it. Ye muppet lovers will rue this day! See. They have a treasure map, booty and booze. Most even have beards. Time is their ocean and everyone their victims! Yaaaaaaar! "How long have you been a robber?" "Four foot one." "Good lord! Jolly good. Four foot one? Well that-that-that is-is- a long time, isn't it?" You can have ur muppets. I'll take these guys =) Edited October 2, 2008 by Thequartermaster

Iron Bess Posted October 6, 2008 Posted October 6, 2008 I agree that it has yet to be made... But for a pocorn Pirate flick I really enjoy *The Crimson Pirate* with Burt Lancaster. What fun! Well, you may not realize it but your looking at the remains of what was once a very handsome woman!
Bart LeBaron Posted November 11, 2008 Posted November 11, 2008 No one has said Pirates of the Caribbean 1 yet? I thought it was pretty good. POTC 2 was pretty bad, and POTC 3 killed it. But POTC 1 was awesome. Regarding Time Bandits, I wasn't impressed...maybe just because I don;t understand British movies. That movie couldn't have had a worse ending...

Cascabel Posted November 11, 2008 Posted November 11, 2008 (Global Madness Coordinator's note - I suspect a similar thread probably exists, but hey... whatever...)Treasure Island, Charlton Heston & Christian Bale version, no doubt about it. Aye, I'm in agreement with ye !! 'Treasure Island' with Heston is without equal. I think Polanski's 'Pirates' runs a close second, especially concerning characters and costuming.... >>>> Cascabel
Crows Nest Vintage Posted November 11, 2008 Posted November 11, 2008 (edited) "Captains Courageous" always makes me cry with actor Spencer Tracy it was one of his best roles "The Black Swan" with Actor Laird Cregar who played Henry Morgan, some of the romantic stuff with actress Maureen O'sullivan is great she is a saucy woman, but I like Laird Cregar I really love Errol FLynn some info from a web site.. "Sea Hawk" Captain Blood, a novel about piracy by Rafael Sabatini, features a character, Peter Blood, whose adventures are reportedly based on the piratical exploits of Henry Morgan. In 1935, the novel was made into a movie starring Errol Flynn -- and features several Captain Blood movie sequels. swashbuckle.gif Edited November 11, 2008 by Crows Nest Vintage "Your pieces of eight Ye Wager soon, I shall be sparkin' some Pirate art by the light of the Moon"

I've been looking for a copy on DVD but am told that it doesn't exist. Walter Matthow was great and the costuming was excellent. Animal Buccaneer - Services to the highest bidder!!!

I've been looking for a copy on DVD but am told that it doesn't exist. Walter Matthow was great and the costuming was excellent. Animal I found it on DVD on ebay a couple of years back. It came out of Brazil. The primary language was Portugese, but you can go to the menu and select the original English dialog with no subtitles. The good part is that it is in "Region 1" format, which means it plays normally on US players. You might check Amazon also. The label on the case says 'Piratas'. >>>> Cascabel
