Thanks for reminding us(again) you're not looking forward to it.

Just want to make sure there's no misunderstanding!

MPAA rating...

Rated PG-13 For intense sequences of action/adventure violence, some frightening images, sensuality and innuendo.

Penelope brings the sensuality.

Pirates 5 script update...

http://www.hollywoodreporter.com/news/pirates-5-script-delivered-disney-185357

Rossio tells THR that the still-untitled script -- his first penned without Ted Elliot, who collaborated on the first four Pirates scripts -- was delivered to Disney this past weekend. It's the initial step in putting together the key creative pieces for another Pirates film. Disney would like another installment, given the $3 billion in worldwide grosses for the first three films and the likely huge returns for the fourth movie, the first to be released in 3D.

"It boils down to story, script and filmmaker," Depp tells THR. But the actor isn't clamoring to jump back into the puffy shirt until a little time has passed after Pirates 4. He didn't relish the brutal schedule that saw him making Pirates 2 and Pirates 3 back-to-back in order to meet studio-mandated release dates in summer 2006 and 2007, respectively.

"You walk like a girl!"
"Well, you would know!"

That line seriously upped my anticipation. May 20th here I come!

I'm praying that I win free tickets to a preview screening at AMC Southdale in Minnesota on the 16th. If there are any more Pirates fans in the Twin Cities, log onto Facebook and sign up for the competition on the Twin Cities Moviegoers page. Good luck to all!

I'm actually quite excited to see the romance with the mermaid. Sounds like a great opportunity for heartstring-pulling drama.

?To be perfectly honest, I didn?t see them.?​

?I felt if we were going to do a 4, that more than anything we owed the audience a fresh start, without all the complicated mathematics of 1 colliding with 2 and 2 colliding with 3,? Depp says. ?I felt like it was important to eliminate as many complications as possible.?

To be fair, Depp rarely watches any of his own films.

True, 92, but he missed one terrific sequel and a flawed yet sadly underrated* threequel...

My sentiments exactly. Here's hoping OST is equally as intriguing, enjoyable, and witty as the previous three.

Elliott and Rossio are as much key to that as any of the returning actors.

I really think they would be the perfect writers to take a stab at an Indy V script. Their films, whether its Pirates or Zorro or Aladdin, crackle with Indy-esque plot devices and characters.

Ha! Was gonna type much the same. But sailing the stranger tides to and from Isla De Lucas would be a daunting voyage.

 

[Attila the Professor]

The scripts for these films are such disasters, though. As fun as the movies are, in seems as though they contain worthwhile moments in spite of the headache-inducing chaos, devoid of any sense of human warmth or motivation, that they present in lieu of plot or characterization. The two best moments in the third film - Governor Swann in his rowboat and Lord Beckett's stunned expression as his ship is blown to bits - seemed to have come from an entirely different film than the bunch of double-crosses we were subjected to otherwise.

Hope it makes money, though, if only because some of it might be funneled into the Disney parks. They've already made their Depp animatronics, after all.

True, but with the exception of Raiders, you could almost make a case for all the Indy films.
