Nam Singh Posted July 18, 2005 Posted July 18, 2005 Spose we could get all the living long johns together.....no I don't mean the underwear...:b Curry, Hoffman, The guy who can't remember his name in all probabability or his NRA membership number....... Meself, Im a sucker for the cheesy classics of the Captain Blood era, Erroll Flynn, Douglass Fairbanks....the era when a short guy can still play something besides a Hobbit
Captain Midnight Posted September 23, 2005 Posted September 23, 2005 I'd have to say Wallace Beery as Long John Silver in the 1934 version of Treasure Island. Jackie Cooper played Jim Hawkins in that one. "Now then, me bullies! Would you rather do the gallows dance, and hang in chains 'til the crows pluck your eyes from your rotten skulls? Or would you feel the roll of a stout ship beneath your feet again?" ---Captain William Kidd--- (1945)
Black Hearted Pearl Posted October 6, 2005 Posted October 6, 2005 Johnny Depp as Captain Jack Sparrow, of course and Errol Flynn as Captain Blood. ~Black Hearted Pearl The optimist expects the wind. The pessimist complains about the wind. The realist adjusts the sails.
Jack2 Posted October 9, 2005 Posted October 9, 2005 There are so many different types of pirates that it is difficult to choose just one. Funniest - Johnny Depp as Capt. Jack Sparrow in POTC, ... Walter Mathau as Captain Red in Captain Red Most classic fictional pirate - Geoffrey Rush as Capt. Barbossa in POTC Most scary - Wallace Beery as Long John Silver in Treasure Island Most musical - Tim Curry as Long John Silver in Muppets Treasure Island Most unbelievable - Gina Davis as Morgan in Cutthroat Island (no woman is that strong) Most athletic - Burt Lancaster as Capt. Vallo in the Crimson Pirate, Errol Flynn as Dr. Peter Blood ... in Captain Blood So much for me 2 dubloons worth. Jack II
Durty Mick Moon Posted October 19, 2005 Posted October 19, 2005 To all ye who agree with me I be buyin' a round...we know hands down that God is Robert Newton as Long John Silver. Period. End of story. :)
