PotC has an unconventional plot structure if you're watching carefully.
>MC gets paired up with unlikely companion
>they go on an adventure to rescue his love interest
>on the way he encounters challenges that help him grow as a person
>he saves the girl
Then instead of the movie ending it goes on for another hour
>ruffian sidekick turns out to have been the real MC all along
>the whole first half was just a trick he played on Will to kick off the real plotline, recapturing the black pearl
>tricks the love interest into helping him
>the movie ends with Will throwing away everything he wanted at the beginning
>all according to Jack's keikaku

Easily Disney's best and one of my favorite movies.

I should rewatch these. I can ignore the ones after 3, right?

"Just Write" is a leftist queer but his analysis of these is excellent and he does make a good point that by modern standards 2 and 3 are kino. We were just spoiled with quality back then.

>>213424274
His black ancestry compelled him to do it

I only realized recently that people take these movies seriously and don't just look at it as franchise slop.

>>213424213 (OP)
It really does seem like a flash in the pan. Maybe the best adventure popcorn film ever honestly? It just slightly edges out the princess bride in that regard for me. Any recommendations for similar anons?

Redpill me on this. Why do anons think a movie that hasn't come out yet will be good? Did the script leak or something?

>>213424213 (OP)
I just saw the first movie for the first time in decades. And I have a question for you anons.


Elizabeth was 100% going to fuck the SOVL out of Jack when she got wine drunk on that Island right? There’s just no fucking way she wasn’t considering how she fucking burned everything down to a cinder the morning after.

>>213424897
Travis Knight is directing and has writer of Kubo and the two strings, also costumes are all said to be toy accurate

>>213424213 (OP)
Why are there suddenly several Pirates threads every day now that I’m rewatching them with my nephew? Is the simulation breaking down? It feels like it’s becoming more and more blatant.

>>213424970
Elizabeth would fuck any pirate.

>>213424370
I recently discovered that each movie has a bonus post-credit scene

>>213424370

>>213425016
Coincidence, but its probably disney shills preparing us for the Pirates 6 announcement

>>213425016

>>213424274
>Johnny Depp abused his girlfriend Amber Heard repeatedly. He's a terrible person.
Amber herd is a hysterical liar and the real abuser, I should know I've dated several good looking women who behave just like her. They can scream for hours and thrash houses as well and lie about being victims compulsively. It seems to go with the territory of being good looking divas in my experience. I 100% believe depp and she was probably the main reason he was on drugs because dealing with abusive lying women like her is hell on earth.

You need to unfuck yiour notions of reality

>>213425016
No its marketing people ploughoing the field.

>Johnny Depp abused his girlfriend Amber Heard repeatedly. He's a terrible person.
I once knew a girl who through everything on the first floor of a bulding down the stares and screamed abuse so loudly for over 4 hous a neigbour called the cops. She then claimed she had been assaulted

You know what set her off? I had not ironed my jeans. You really really need to relearn everything you know. I've never hit a womean in my life because I was raised not to. Depp did nothing wrong and women like Amer Heard should fave serious jail time for what they do. Men and society in general are sick of them.

>>213425142
I don't understand.
Why engage in such self destructive behaviours when your life is basically perfect compared to 99.99% of humanity?

>>213425182
What? But there is no new movie coming

>>213425297
there could be. Jerry Bruckheimer talks about it like every 6 months.

>>213425267

That's her job, even though it's weird that you're ironing jeans.

>>213424970
I always thought so when I was a kid...
but....
It's actually made very clear that she was faking being drunk. When he first hands her the liquor bottle she has the look as though she hatches an idea.
Then after jack passes out she looks over at him, she's still wide awake, and she actually looks a bit less drunk.
Her plan was to get jack so wasted he would pass out so she could start the work on her plan which she did. She was faking the entire thing.

Mental illness

>>213425267
My now ex would do this after a few drinks. I'd meet her and she'd be drunk in public and it was embarrassing. When I'd try and get her home she would scream "GET OFF ME" like she was being attacked and literally nothing can calm her down. She can be her own probably now the stupid useless cunt.

>>213425418
Nope

>>213425474
They got a psychologist to testify that she got Borderline Personality Disorder and Histrionic Personality Disorder.
Who are you to disagree?

>>213425532
Did he examine her himself?

How kino is it that it's adapted from a Disney ride

>>213425584
Yes. 12 hours of interviews with Heard, as well as review of her mental health records

>>213425685
It looks like it smells bad.

>>213424274
she took a SHIT IN HIS BED anon she deserves to get abused like c'mon you NEVER shit in a mans bed (unless he's gay in which case it would be rude not to)

>>213425759
She lost control of her bowels after he sodomized her.

>>213425810
If you shit yourself after sex you’re getting kicked out of my house and never coming back.

>>213425810
the shit wasn't that kind of shit virgin.

The shit on the bed was hard and dark, blatantly from Heard and her diet of wine and meds.

One of the best, for sure

>>213424274
was any of this actually proven? so far im under the impression that it was the opposite and that obsessive (literally) gay men and mentally unwell women continue to lie about it on the internet for reasons I don't understand.

>>213425016
I can only speak for myself, but I rewatched all 5 movies in the past couple of weeks.

I did this because Orlando Bloom was in the news with him and Katy Perry breaking up - and my subconscious must have craved Bloom.

I’m assuming this happened subconsciously to hundreds of other anons as well, who then started organically realising that Curse of the Black Pearl is 10/10 kino that has aged really well.

>>213425016
probably just coincided with whichever schizo that spams threads deciding to make a bunch about pirates for the next 10 years

How did we go from
>Harry Potter (early ones were good)
>Star Wars
>LOTR
>Pirates
>Some others

To
>Marvel
>Marvel
>Shitty remake
>Marvel

Even if you pretend the Marvel slop is good (it certainly isn't post Infinity War) there is just so little.
I used to have to resist the urge to spend money at the movie theater. Now I desperately search what is playing at the local theaters, hoping there is something even remotely worth watching.

I think the last film I bothered to see in a theater was the Five Nights at Freddie's film.

>>213426245
I hope you have a bad day tomorrow and start crying
JK anon have a good one :)

>>213425016
there's a schizo on tv desperate for (you)s who will just post whatever threads he thinks will gain traction.
he probably saw this thread was popular yesterday and just copied it.

>>213426556
Don't forget all the shitty mastubatory biopics

>>213425446
Its amazing theer are people on here who still refuse to recognise women like this exist. They are not even that rare. They scream, they smash shit up and they lie. It seems to go with being good looking. They are abusive when and there are a lot of them out there ruining the lives of people right now. Why the pretence? Most men who have lived at all saw amber herd for exactly what she was, that girl that they dated that flipped out when she broke a nail and smashed the TV and the car wing mirror while screaming get away from me at the top of her lungs hoping somoneone will hear at a guy who's locked himself in the bathroom.

If you don't know that woman like this exist (and are often very violent) that target men they know won't ever hit back then you are very very foolish.

Depp did nothing wrong except put up with it by getting wrecked to cope.

Capeshit was the cultural heat dead of the USA.

It was awful and at least we can start to talk about it in the past tense. 100% there won't be a single capshit move in 2029+. Not one.

>>213426556
And now we will get Harry Potter again (HBO remake), Star Wars (Mando movie, Shawn Levy movie), LotR (Rings season 3 and Hunt for Gollum movie) and Pirates 6

So which one is better?

>>213424370
Rush made one of the best "I'm so fucking tired of this guy's shit" faces when he looked at that hole in the map. Always gets a chuckle out of me.

Amber heard reminded me of Naomi Cambell, very similar behavior, she lateche donto a guitarust from U2 and used wander around screaming at him and throwing things at his head

https://www.nzherald.co.nz/lifestyle/the-violent-side-of-supermodel-naomi-campbell/BJINRYCJ6IWRPZ3XBLYCT2QYQI/

"Campbell has been accused of committing acts of violence 11 times, and convicted of assault on four different occasions between 1998 and 2009."

Amber heard should have gone to prision for perjury, Depp never beat her or abused her and she knew it.

>>213426556
Even just pre-2020 we'd still get an occasional good sci-fi flick. Now it all sucks. Mickey 17 was trash.

>>213426640
Yes, it is. The only good part is Johnny Depp carrying this dog
shit series.

>>213426501

You're a single person, redditor.

>>213426762
That's not fair the first few movies were great then like most good things streched out for bucks went bad, the last couple of movies were worthless. It lost the cast and it needed the three central characters there to stand up. depp did the best he could have with it. The first three movies will always stand up as a remarable trilogy just like the first three star wars movies or the first three indiana jones etc

>>213426793
>I'm not gay, but I am a feminist.
>Depp is a scumbag through and through.

If you need to defend women like amber heard then you are just a scumbag yourself because you know what they are and what they are doing but you don't give a shit because you live by lying

>>213426793
Does being a feminist mean you support vicious lying violent abusive women by lying huh. So feminist = Liar according to you?

>>213425725
I bet it smells like cheap plastic
>>213426762
Probably bait, but I'll bite. PotC is way more than just Jack, every other character served their role perfectly, OP pointed out correctly that the plot unfolds in a fairly original way, the action is great, the set pieces and costumes are very on-point

>>213424970
she was faking being drunk

>>213426556
producers realised what movie goers really need
they produce slop that audience would gobbles up, that's it

I feel like 2nd favorite is a more interesting question, because you probably have brain damage if you legitimately think any of them are better than the 1st.

>>213427180
Dead man chest is pure kino

>>213424248
3 is probably the worst one. It has some cool set pieces, but literally nothing the characters say make any sense.
I recommend watching 4 though, it's a shockingly fun side story. I wish they just continued making one off adventures in the style of 4 instead of dragging Bloom and Knightley's shit back into 5.
>>213427209
I agree it's kino, but it's still btfo by the first one.

Not to downplay how good Pirates is, but can you really truly say it’s a better popcorn action movie than Raiders of the Lost Ark or Last Crusade?

>>213427066
>>213427180
It would have been better to rank them from 1 to 5 instead of just picking a single favourite.

>>213428168
I can, easily. For one it's an actual adventure story rather than Jewish-made propaganda reminding you to hate nazis

Davy Jones was such a kino character, the weird way he talked, the obvious humor he had about life even as a cursed monster, the amazing CG that made his existence believable and how he was legitimately an intimidating threat

>>213424248
Watch 1 and 2
Ignore 3 and get AI to write a better ending
Get drunk and watch 5 as a standalone

>>213424248
The thing about 3 is that it isn't very good in comparison to the first two, but it nails the endings for all the main characters.

>>213424581
Davy Jones in 2 is GOAT
Davy Jones in 3 is a pussy whipped cuck

>>213424774
The Mummy is the only other one I can think if.

Indiana Jones 1 and 3 too but I rewatched them as an adult and they are very contrived, still fun tho.

>>213434733
Sure. But it character assassinates

Gov. Swan
The Commodore
Davy Jones
Cutler Beckett

Its just sad where you compare it to something like star wars where everyone gets a badass sendoff... except boba fett

This is the best scene in the entire trilogy:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dUAbmYUvJXc

>>213435002
None of them were character assassinated unless you object to them dying.

>>213424524
2 & 3 put together as one big story are easily better than 1.

>>213435057
They all died in ways diametrically opposed to their established characters

>>213435002
>character assassinates
You are a fucking retard. It was literally written together with the second film and shot back to back by the same people. It did not character assassinate anyone. What, Davy Jones was not TEH BADASS enough for you? Why do you think he cut out his heart and had a fucking heart shaped thingie that played tender love music that he was wearing with him all the time? Or what is your problem? That he had to bow down to the company? Yeah, that's the point. TL;DR: you're a retard and anyone who says 3 is bad is a retard.

>>213426980
But he lost a libel case so it's completely legal to describe him as a wife beating drunk.

>>213435133
NTA but I agree with him. It undermines all of Norrington and Governor Swan's character development.

>yag sbarro, the guy who supposedly look out only after himself and is searching for eternal life lets will stab out the heart
