The action-packed worldwide film sensation will make its Disney DVD debut on December 5th. Starring Johnny Depp as that mischievous, heroic rogue Captain Jack Sparrow, this epic adventure has taken audiences by storm. The film's Theatrical opening weekend was the biggest in U.S. box-office history, and the high-seas Hollywood tidal wave continues with a worldwide box-office gross of over a billion dollars to date, making it Disney's most successful movie of all time. Source: Buena Vista Home Entertainment "Pirates Of The Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest" will be released as both a deluxe 2-disc Special Edition DVD set and as a single-disc DVD. The single-disc DVD features screenwriter audio commentary and the hilarious, never-before-seen "Bloopers Of The Caribbean."

Much of the bonus material is exclusive to this DVD release. To launch the "Talk Like A Pirate Day" festivities, Disney Home Entertainment is unleashing "Dead Man's Mail" (www.deadmansmail.com), an interactive site and emailable interface hosted by a rogue talking skull with a penchant for dressing up. Tips on the site for speaking like a true Pirate of the Caribbean are guaranteed to get tongues wagging.

Orlando Bloom ("Lord Of The Rings Trilogy") returns as Will Turner, joined by the beautiful Keira Knightley ("Pride & Prejudice") as the feisty Elizabeth Swann. Jack Davenport reprises Norrington, Jonathan Pryce ("The New World") is back as Governor Swann, and the hysterical pirate duo of Pintel (Lee Arenberg) and Ragetti (Kevin McNally, TV's "Life On Mars") return for more trouble. Newcomers to the adventure include Bill Nighy ("Shaun Of The Dead") as the eerie Davy Jones, Stellan Skarsgård ("Dogville") as the washed up sailor Bootstrap Bill, and Naomie Harris ("Miami Vice") as the mysterious sorceress Tia Dalma. "Pirates Of The Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest" is the epic sequel to the blockbuster "Pirates Of The Caribbean: The Curse Of The Black Pearl." Johnny Depp earned an Academy® Award nomination for his role as the rogue pirate Captain Jack Sparrow (Best Actor Nominee, 2005), and he's back for more incredible adventure. "Pirates Of The Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest" is a grand, swashbuckling, high-octane joy ride filled with rousing action, devilish pirate humor, monstrous sea creatures and more. In the first "Pirates" film Captain Jack saved the day, but now he finds he has a debt to pay: he made a bargain for his soul with Davy Jones himself, the ghostly, fearsome ruler of the ocean depths. It looks like a one-way trip to Davy Jones's locker, but the crafty Captain Jack won't go down without a fight. Dashing Will Turner (Orlando Bloom) and beautiful Elizabeth Swann (Keira Knightley) once again get caught up in Jack's adventures across the Seven Seas. Escaping hostile natives on an exotic island and fighting the mighty Kraken are just some of the thrilling escapades Jack faces, because nothing will stop him from finding the fabled Dead Man's Chest and winning his freedom. Written by Ted Elliott & Terry Rossio. Characters created by Ted Elliott & Terry Rossio and Stuart Beattie and Jay Wolpert. Produced by Jerry Bruckheimer ("Pearl Harbor," "Armageddon," TV's "CSI" series, and many, many more). Directed by Gore Verbinski.

Loved the ones from the first one Completely agree mate, the cut scenes added a nice tension/intensity to the tale, at the time I posted I wished there was a way to reconstruct the movie with those scenes included. Realize they were probably cut for time but, it was a pity. Maybe some day, assemble-your-own-movie DVDs.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Black Hearted Pearl Posted December 6, 2006 Author Share Posted December 6, 2006 Apologies to Iron Bess, but I have to share my pain. Today, I click on my Disney Shopping order to check on the status of my pre-ordered POTC:DMC Dvd. The link for tracking doesn't work. I call Disney Shopping Customer Service, the recording says it I may have to hold up to 20 minutes. No, that's not a typo, 20 MINUTES! While waiting, I fire off an email. I finally get through on the phone and they say, "Oh, you have to put a 9102 in front on the USPS tracking." I reply, "Your link isn't working because you forgot to put the '9102' in front of the tracking number on your link. Perhaps you should fix that and then you wouldn't have people on hold for 20 minutes!" After hanging up with the Disney Shopping Experience, I get an email back from Disney Shopping. Read it for yourself. Dear V*****, Thank you for your recent inquiry. Our records indicate that your order shipped on November 29, 2006 via FedEx. Please allow 7 - 10 business days for shipment. For your added convenience DisneyShopping.com offers online order tracking. To access this please go to the Order Tracking option at the bottom of any page.

It was submitted by (e****@yahoo.com) on Wednesday, December 6, 2006 at 11:41:11 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ --- message: The following tracking number does not track to the carrier stated on the order page: 1 62123 DVD-POTC:DEAD MNS CHST- 2DSC-WS-SPE EDTN $24.99 YES Shipped 11/29/2006 USPS Tracking #: 043656516272024946 TRACK It has not been worthwhile to pre- order this DVD through Disney, only a headache of waiting. Waiting for the tracking information and then the waiting to talk to a Disney "cast member" about the missing package. ~Black Hearted Pearl The optimist expects the wind.
