Pirates of the Caribbean: Disney's first Pg-13

When Pirates are in the 'hood, are they looking for ghetto booty?

Do you have something against Disney?

I have a friend who read the script (he works for an agency)... and he said the script was really good -- he expects the movie will be quite good.

And.. he's a very picky about movies...

Yeah, what a shocker that a movie named after a ride at Disneyland would be released by Disney.

I am looking forward to seeing this, and not just because PotC is my favorite attraction in all of DisneyWorld. It looks exciting, plus it's got Johnny Depp. I'm not a super huge fan of Depp, but he always picks interesting stuff.

I will also be skipping The Haunted Mansion. I love that ride too, but Eddie Murphy? Feh, I tell you, FEH!

Honk!

Yes it's getting to the point where anything he's in is guaranteed to suck. Kinda sad.

I heard the only thing related to the ride at all is the name and the fact that there are pirates. Too bad. I was hoping to see those wenches chasing after those fat dudes, and the fat chick chasing after the skinny dudes. I'm still mad that the chasing thing was removed from the ride at Disneyland. Bastards.

I heard Depp talking about how Kieth Richards was his inspiration for the character he played. He went on and on about how Pirates were the rock stars of their era. Man, I want to know what drugs he's on, coz I want some.

What about Touchstone and Buena Vista, Disney owns them and they have released R rated movies.

When you include all the various subdivisions, it's fairly hard to avoid disney products.

It's the first PG-13 released under the Walt Disney Pictures name... not the first PG-13 ever from a subsidiary of the company. A rather big deal...

Eh, Johnny Depp is the worst actor ever and I would never own any movie he sticks his fat nose in. I wouldn't be caught dead watching this movie. Especially not on opening night, with some nachos and a Cherry Coke.

The one thing I've really learned from the previews? Johnny Depp's character's name is Captain Jack Sparrow. They must say it half a dozen times.

"You remember Captain Jack Sparrow"
"You're, forgetting, I'm Captain Jack Sparrow"
"You must find Captain Jack Sparrow"
"Captain Jack Sparrow should Captain Jack Sparrow the Captain Jack Sparrow?" "Captain Jack Sparrow."

Good lord, call him Captain Jack, call him Captain Sparrow, call him Jack Sparrow, call him Captain, call him Jack, call him Sparrow BUT STOP CALLING HIM CAPTAIN JACK SPARROW! Those previews have driven me insane.
