Wanna See Captain Jack's Father?!
Hey, everyone. ”Moriarty” here.
The first picture I’ve seen anywhere of Keith Richards in makeup onset for PIRATES OF THE CARIBBEAN 3 is over at ComingSoon.net right now.
Not sure how long it’ll be there, but check it out while you can, and thanks for the heads-up, Emi:
Hi Harry and Hercules!
Onward with my endless browsing, I came across a very funny picture of none other than Keith Richards on the set of the Pirates of the Caribbean 3 Set! Here's the link to the article:
Keep it real!

father doesn't mean he has to dress identically.
-
But I do like Keith Richards the crazy ol bastard.
-
Needs to grow some tits, then I MIGHT shag her.
-
damn, that's scary
-
Those CGI nerds make him look life-like.
-
with the make-up/special effects on this character.
-
it looks nice...but almost too similar, must be a reason though--trusting this works out
-
Given Richards' lifestyle, I take it the make-up artists had to make him look a little more normal than usual to fit in to the pirate look!
-
I like idea of having Keef in the film, so my only hope now is that they do something interesting with him beyond the obvious stunt casting joke of 'Look! It's Keef Richards! Geddit!?'
-
Who thought this was a good idea again?
-
We're all terribly impressed with how Knightley isn't "good enough" for you. I'm sure she's heartbroken.
-
...include a person in a sequel to a film, solely because somebody based their previous character on them? Do you have any idea what a moral and ethical principal is? Have you?!!
-
Or does that bald guy look WAY too short to play Jack's father?

His face is as messy as the script for Dead Man's Chest

And I disagree about Kiera Knightly, she has a stunning figure, but nobody is hot enough to get me out for a third installment of this franchise. One Pirates movie was enough.
-
I certainly hope you're joking. What the fuck is immoral or unethical about anything in a fictional adeventure story? A bad idea? Maybe, but immoral? What the fuck?
-
Fuck you POTC naysayers. Get back to your Ocean's 13 or whatever. This looks awesome as hell.
-
I have to say I'm not to keen on them having Sparrow Sr. dressed just like Sparrow Jr. I've also never been convinced that Richards can do anything but stumble, slur and play the guitar. Let's hope his part is little more than a cameo... and that the costume designers and Verbinski have a valid reason for dressing him in Johnny's hand-me-downs.
-
Get a photo of Keith Richards and place it beside one of Hoggle from Labrynth. The similarities are increible!
-
. . . Richards will be performing the palm tree climbing scene himself.
-
I guess some people might not want to know that Richards is in the movie yet.
-
He will probably be on-screen for 10 seconds though. But he is just a lovable, alcoholic loon (unlike Mick Jagger, who just sucks).
-
title of book seven ... got it from a drunken night with JK ... :)
-
Welcome to the year 2006.
-
Got it from Jk's milkman eh TodayzSpecial?
Love the title -
Can't wait for this one, DMC was great popcorn entertainment. Pairing up Depp and Richards is inspired!
-
im sure it will be very funny.
-
...the first one was largely fun but too long. The second was barely acceptable but had the advantage of coming out during a summer where the other tentpoles (Superteens Return, X-Men The Last Outrage & King Long) were all considerably less than acceptable.The cast is largely likable (even Orlando had a couple nice moments in the second film) so here's hoping for a grand finish.
-
Thanks for being so welcoming!
-
If Hunter S. Thompson was still alive, Jonny would want him in the too - which would be awsome since there is some of HST in his performance as Captain Jack (IMO). Picture it - HST as some old gruff pirate, talking incoherently about how he road the sea turtles first and asking E. Swan about her period ala Jack Nicholson in the Departed!
I can't wait for the Transformers talk back to sway into this and shout how they "raped the fond memories of the ride I took when I was 7". I, for one, can't wait for this! -
if Ringo were a pirate I mean.

I just saw the last one so was holding off judgement. The first one while quite fun, had a plot that was all over the place. I thought if they could sort that out the second and third could be great. They went the other way and made the second one even more of a mess, with the obviously commercial ending. Congratulations to Disney, they made the biggest movie of the year, and made it a lock that everyone that paid to see it would pay to see the third one. Commiseration to everyone with a brain or who likes good movies. I'll cath the third one on cable in about 3 years.
-
Hopefully it'd be in the DVD bonus features.
-
i really fucking hate the studios
-
Glad to have you with us, buddy!
-
If so, could you upload it somewheres...

with or without the space.
-
There's 2 spaces in that link! Remove them both... :D
-
Really? I mean, they aren't the deepest or most meaningful pieces of art, but they're sure entertaining in an "Aaargh, Pirates!" kind of way. What were you expecting from a Disney action adventure series based on a theme park ride?
-
reference for your handle. Well done.
-
Just because they're related doesn't mean they have to be identical.

yo ho

...believe it or not. Why did they contract this role out to Richards. Apparently they decided that a drugged up rock star donning skin with the consistency of stucco would serve as a brilliant cameo. Still think Captain Davy Jones will be the bread and butter of the ATWE.
-
...But certainly not bad for what they are: a bunch of fun films that you don't have to try to process too deeply if you don't want to. So the people who don't like them, well, I'd like to know how they come about that assertion. As compared to what? In terms of family adventure-type movies there is certainly worse out there (see National Treasure, etc.)
Anyway, I agree that Keith Richards is likely going to be a carrot-on-a-stick in this movie aimed at drawing in crowds, simply because I can't see him staying coherent for two and a half hours. However, there's lots of potential for other goings-on, especially with Norrington apparently plotting with the East India Company to control the seas via Davy Jones and by assocation the Kraken (correctly pronounced "CROCK-en" as I think that dude with the wooden eyeball said). Also, I look for the voodoo woman and her mysterious heart locket to figure in somewhere. I almost hope that Keith Richards is only the halftime show in this, because there's a lot of plot they need to resolve. We'll see, kids. -
why would a legendary rock musician choose to prostitute himself (before God) in a di$ney movie that's gayer than musicals? <--not a rhetorical question.
-
Haha, that's funny, he looks just like an older version of Jack.
-
In case he need another change.Or gets really thirsty.
-
...from a little known film called 'The Shining' by a little-known 'hack' called Stanley Kubrick. I can understand how you might have missed that one.
-
they certainly aren't very good. I guess justified mediocrity is one of my pet peeves. Especially if the film that is average is hailed as a glowing success. Obviously you are infused with Christmas cheer. I suppose I'll have some of what you are having...
-
Okay, brycemonkey, so perhaps you didn't like the POTC movies so much, and that's all right. No one can like every movie. But I would argue that the people behind them accomplished exactly what they set out to do: make harmless, non-controversial films that people seem to enjoy watching. Sure, they were smash successes financially, but that's because families flock in droves to see this kind of movie, especially in the summer, because of course passive audio-visual entertainment is one of the primary methods of family bonding these days. But I don't think anyone is saying that they are setting the standard for film in general, just perhaps their genre of family action/adventure films. Like I said above, there has certainly been worse to come out of this field of films; hell, even the other high-profile ride movie Haunted Mansion sucked big time. And there are a lot of high profile movies that are going to make a lot of money, but monetary success is rarely if ever an indicator of a film's worthiness of being on any sort of AFI list or standing as a benchmark of what a truly great film should be. The really deserving films tend not to be products of summer blockbuster buzz, but that doesn't mean that summer movies serve no purpose. Movies were created first and foremost to entertain; a legitimate desire to advance the art of film figures into some of them but not all. Sometimes you just have to sit back and have a fun time watching a movie, and that's what pirate movies are for. Maybe someday someone will make the perfect artistically groundbreaking "serious" pirate film, but thus far most if not all attempts at that sort of thing have failed.
-
why makeup? would rather Keef just appeared as Keef, really. Oh, and Fuck The Napkin - fair point in respect of Keith Richards possibly being a spoiler, but the slightly bigger spoiler that you somehow missed was perhaps that Captain Jack survives the battle at the end of POTC 2?? if he wakes up and spends 30 minutes on a train station platform, we are all fucked.
-
...just a thought. I haven't read anything about the 3rd film but could it be a possibility that the reason they look so much a like, is that that Richards is playing an older version of Jack and not his father....
I could see the last shot of the film being of Old Jack sitting on a beach drinking rum singing "Yo Ho"...
-
heh. Like a pic of Richards dressed up for the movie would be such a big spoiler. Studio's are stupid.

from www.brianmay.com on reports of Johnny Depp portraying Mercury;
"But you're right about one thing ... Johnny Depp is fantastic. He would be a worthy counterpart for Freddie on screen. I don't think I can say any more right now."
Here's a bit from article:
"PIRATES Of the Caribbean star Johnny Depp is in line to play Freddie Mercury in a Hollywood biopic.
The movie, planned for next year, is being developed by Robert De Niro's Tribeca Productions and will focus on Mercury's life, from his birth in Zanzibar in 1946 to his AIDS-related death in 1991, when he was just 45.
Queen guitarist Brian May and drummer Roger Taylor will have the final say over the music in the film - which will see Depp 43, miming to Mercury's original vocal recordings.
Mercury's long-term girlfriend, Mary Austin said: 'I can't think of anyone better to play Freddie.'"
Ok Harry! Why isn't AICN covering this AT ALL???????????

"accomplished exactly what they set out to do: make harmless, non-controversial films" why should I celebrate something so middle of the road? I want to be moved by a film experience. I re-watched Domino last night, that movie moves me. It movies me to have a headache and to hate it, but I value it more than the POTC movies. I'd rather have a reaction of "Ugh! This is horrible! You are killing me!" Than "Hmmm vanilla." Hey maybe it's me but there you go. I have very weird and harsh rules about movies, I can admit that. But The fact that 'Vannilla' is the big movie draw of the year and will almost certainly be the big movie draw NEXT year is what gets under my skin. Anyway, rant over. Enjoy the holidays.

...it was just something to do with friends when it was too damn hot to do anything else. Plus I wasn't real keen on seeing whatever gore flick was out at the time. Sure, I had fun, but I wasn't exactly thinking Oscar contender there (except in the technical divisions like makeup or whatever). My point in all this is that there is room for both artistic achievement AND low-impact entertainment at the movies. I don't think people were celebrating Dead Man's Chest in the same ways that they were celebrating Good Night and Good Luck. That's because those two films had very different goals: one was made to challenge people's minds and emotions, the other one was made purely to entertain. In fact, it's fair to say that one shouldn't expect much more from a movie based on a theme park ride, the only difference in the two iterations is that one experience is live-action, the other one audio-visual. So again, if you didn't care for the movie, then that's perfectly all right, but criticizing it as failing to meet some standard that no one expected it to even try to meet isn't really fair. It's of course tragic that the multiplex masses will never see as many truly great films as they should, but as long as there is a huge demand for low-impact popcorn cinema, why not let it be pirate movies instead of Cheaper By The Dozen 5 or the next big Michael Bay pyrotechnics hemorrage?
-
I'd like to see HBO's version of Pirates on the Caribbean.
-
Are both excellent as first time fare when hot and fresh but don't age too well or taste nearly as good the next day. Even after a decent reheating.
