I felt that at the end of part 3 there was going to be a part 4 and have waited with baited breath for it. Or I think they would have released a box set. I feel that part 3 was slow to start but was over all great, it really came together. I love these movies because it lets you go to a different world and not have to be deep in thought after a hard day of work. I APPLAUD DISNEY FOR MAKING A GREAT SERIES OF MOVIES AND NOT HAVING TO BE RATED R AND A TON OF TRASH!!!!:sohappy::sohappy::sohappy:

'Gone in 60 Seconds' was such a cinematic classic! :ROFLOL:
Depp as Sparrow is gold. There is no denying that. It was great enough for him to be nominated for an Oscar, and he held the sloppy sequels together.
Pirates, as a trilogy, is nothing more than a 'on the water' version of the original Star Wars trilogy (and mind you, the Star Wars trilogy is nothing more than Lord the Rings - in space).
I also got tired of person a backstabbing person b, to make person c do something for person d, while person b plans his own backstabbing for person e, all the while - person c is the brains of the entire ordeal.
Despite the weak plot (the Pirate movies is as in-depth as 'Where's Waldo!" :ROFLOL
, these films has some of the greatest film set-pieces Disney (or any studio) has come up with in a very long time. The last 40 minutes of Pirates 3 is gold. 
Anyhow, I don't mind another Pirates flick. Depp as Sparrow is what makes the Pirate flicks work. Without him, 'Cutthroat Island 2'? :shrug:
By the way - anyone that expects Depp to be in 'Batman 3', you can stop already. Nolan doesn't pick the obvious. That's what made Ledger an unique choice, and ultimately, the best.

I was referring to the "average" viewer of the movies; not the fanatics like us
Here again, to the fanatics, yes, we buy the DVD and just for arguement sake, I was saying that I wonder if they could have more sales of DVD's etc if the story lines werent so indepth so the "average" viewer would be more engauged.
it is just a thought. I could careless either way, as long as they have hot pirate chics booty :drevil:

negative but true...
The beginning and middle weren't much to write home about either!
Amen brother!
I'm really hoping you're right. The reaction from fans and general public could very well be "they're still trying to make money off of that?"
In my eyes Tim Burton isn't usually good either, and hasn't been since '94:
Corpse Bride: I want my money back/ give me a full length movie.
Mars Attacks: Nice try.
Planet of the Apes: I wanted to fling poo.
Sweeny Todd: Far worse than any stage production I've seen.
Charlie and the Chocolate Factory: Gene Wilder is spinning in his grave.
But I love the idea of Depp as the Mad Hatter.
What? Sharp enough to ride Don Simpson's coat tails, parlay it into a string of Nick Cage movies and convince CBS to buy bad TV shows? I guess he is pretty sharp.

Yahoo is quick on the ball, I knew about it this morning.
:lol:
Besides, that's just a legal footnote, it's not happening anytime soon. The actual big news is the confirmation that Johnny Depp will be playing the Mad Hatter in Tim Burton's animated Alice in Wonderland, the even bigger news is that he'll be playing Tonto in The Lone Ranger. (Possibly with George Clooney in the title role!!! Awesome!!! I'll take that now please!)
It's also be written by the Epicly-amazing-writers of Pirates of the Caribbean!

Anyone think they'll include anything from Pirates Online in the new movie?
