Pirates of the Carribean: On Stranger Tides

[blackmage_nuke]

I feel the latest Pirates movie was ok, not great, not horrible. The pacing was very off putting with 3 action sequences at the begining followed by a bit of a lull. The last minute or so also felt extremely preachy, when they were summarising the morale of the story for us. The only thing I really liked was that there was a lot more of Mr Gibbs. Overall though I thought 3 was enough Pirates movies.

What are your opinions?

my opinion is that people shouldn't go 'cause maybe then they'll get the hint and stop making these god-forsaken movies.

no offense meant to anyone who genuinely enjoys them, it just irks me.

[rubah]

wait, they made a new one?

[Shattered Dreamer]

I have to admit these movies are a bit of a guilty for me. My youngest sister is 10 & my 2 nephews are 7 & 4 so I just kind of got roped into watching the movies with them & strangely found myself really enjoying them.

I saw the trailer for the newest installment when I went to see Thor & to be honest, I can't wait to see it

I must admit that I like all three of them. :/

I'm going to see the new one later tonight, and it'll be a great night.

Haha same here! I also saw the trailer during Thor, in 3D none the less!

It was pretty enjoyable, as silly as you'd expect from the Pirates movies. :3

Saw Thor in 3D too, not too pushed on this 3D nonsense but that's a topic for another thread

Sometimes I feel like I'm the only one who thought this whole franchise was rubbish. Even the first film I can't stand. I like Johnny Depp, but he really isn't as funny at all in these movies. They should have stopped once they realised they were making a movie from a theme park ride and didn't have any competant writers to make up for it.

They were never going to stop with how insanely popular the franchise has been (Dead Man's Chest made over a billion dollars! And it didn't need 3D to manage that). I like the first one, but the sequels are real diminishing returns.

Just came back, and it was pretty much everything I expected it to be. It was fun, cheesy and adventurous! Ian McShane is one of my favorite actors, and he did not disappoint.

Going to watch it tomorrow. I have a man crush on Orlando so the lack of him is going to be interesting.

[DMKA]

Saw it last night. It was pretty great. I actually liked it way better than Dead Man's Chest or At World's End. It was goofy fun that, while dramatic at times, didn't take itself too seriously, just like the first one. The lack of Orlando Bloom and whateverhernameis didn't bother me in the least. I thought it would.

I saw it in 3D and it was cool but hardly worth the extra bucks.

[Hollycat]

went and saw it, thought it was the best one yet
