Some PIRATES 3 Snippets For Yew!!

Looks great by 12-GAUGE	Mar 14th, 2007 09:32:55 PM
never saw Dead man's Chest, but Chow might sell me on this. Was Dead man's even that good?
Awesome! by ElectricDreams	Mar 14th, 2007 09:37:27 PM
Yeah, I was there w/ a friend the day they were taking the very last of it apart. I wanted to take home a sliver of wood, something, some souvenier, but Security was so tight they even made you brush the sawdust off your shoes before leaving the area so no one would have any element of the production!
Well... by Quintus_Arrius	Mar 14th, 2007 09:40:37 PM
... I don't really care much for this franchise although I'll admit that Depp is (mildly) entertaining in this. Hail!
chow yun fat by rdsxfan8	Mar 14th, 2007 09:52:34 PM
yeah hes a good addition to this series. and as for the "might" be the last one, you know if this one makes any $$$ ( and boy will it ever) than they will start churning em out every three yrs or so. It wont be about the storyline anymore ti will strictly be a cash cow that they will milk until its teets are empty..
Chow Yun Fat is bloody brilliant! by Amy Chasing	Mar 14th, 2007 09:56:04 PM
such grace and presence on screen is a rare thing these days. Haven't met the guy, but I like to think he's like one of those actors from back in the 40s and 50s - he inspires that sort of awe.
Seriously, Mr Spork by DarthDooku	Mar 14th, 2007 10:05:03 PM
Come on, man, honestly. Not only is this getting old, but it's not very nice. These talkbacks should be for relevant discussion, not pointless, repetitive comments.
Chow Yun Fat Gotta Eat... Less by Napolean Solo	Mar 14th, 2007 10:08:22 PM
Has that been used?
It's quiet in here... too quiet... by Spunkmeyer24	Mar 14th, 2007 10:10:04 PM
It's Raphael...too raphael
Too Chow Yun Fat-ty!! by boba_rob	Mar 14th, 2007 10:12:32 PM
He looks bad ass. Can't wait to see this.
Shiver me timbers by David Lazarus Long	Mar 14th, 2007 10:19:38 PM
Aye do likes me some pirates, arrr....
"Does this armor make me look fat?" - Chow Yun-Fat by Doctor_Sin	Mar 14th, 2007 10:24:57 PM
Chow is Tha Shiznat.
The Black Pearl? by Hairy Nutsack	Mar 14th, 2007 10:27:48 PM
Didn't that slobbering kraken thing rip the Pearl apart at the end of POTC2? So Jack AND his ship come back from the land of the dead? WTF?
I hope they cut out the fat by iwontwin	Mar 14th, 2007 10:39:04 PM
not chow yun of course...the last film suffered from one too many scenes of jack sparrow running around, trying hard to say something funny, but his act got a little old. Hopefully this film is not overstuffed like the last one...
DarthDooku-Where the fuck've you been? by Lamerz	Mar 14th, 2007 10:59:43 PM
"These talkbacks should be for relevant discussion, not pointless, repetitive comments." Seriously. Really? This is an AICN talkback here. Not exactly a bastion of wisdom and wit. And yes, "fuck've" is a new contraction created by me. Unless someone else said it first.
Damn Disney's Stupid..... by Jobacca	Mar 14th, 2007 11:04:10 PM
Cant believe they tore down the Pearl...its one of THE BEST sets ever built for a film. They should have just shipped it to one of their parks and charged the tourists 20 bucks a pop to walk around on it-thats about the only thing that would get my ass back to Disney(well,that or a full-size Millinium Falcon walkthrough at MGM)
Lamerz by David Lazarus Long	Mar 14th, 2007 11:07:06 PM
I've been using "fuck've" for awhile in casual conversation, but not on the boards. Let's leave it in the public domain tho, it's too fun to keep to ourselves. I also like "fuck're", as in, "Where the fuck're you goin'?" =D
Oh and by David Lazarus Long	Mar 14th, 2007 11:09:06 PM
I just got off the phone with Jesus, he said he gotta eat some fried beanpole Tom Clancy novel jumping the shark in a pool of Dakota Fanning rape juice. How's that for classy discussion, eh? I mentioned Tom Clancy, didn't I? What the fuck're you lookin' at?
Kinda WEIRD that it's the last? by jabbathegriffin	Mar 14th, 2007 11:17:51 PM
What's so weird about it? We've been living with the Pirates franchise for four freaking years! I swear I must have really missed the boat on these movies...so to speak. I mean, the first one was fun and somewhat refreshing. The second was just aimless and bogged down. Granted it was AMAZING to look at but the story went nowhere. Bringing back Rush and adding Fat are fine and I'll see it opening weekend just like everyone else, but honestly, if something were to happen to stop AWE from ever being seen, I wouldn't care in the least.
Chow needs to lay off the by Turd Furgeson	Mar 14th, 2007 11:50:41 PM
Chow......
NEW RULE: Kiera Knightly needs a fucking sandwich. by Bill Maher	Mar 15th, 2007 12:03:16 AM
Who wants to feel up such a scrawny ho? Not me.
That's not a great line. by DOGSOUP	Mar 15th, 2007 03:35:00 AM
Eh, perhaps there's a delivery issue I'm missing. I'd still fuck that voodoo lady rotten and get that dead smurf residue all over my cock.
Oh, mama, can this really be the end? by Franklin T Marmoset	Mar 15th, 2007 03:36:24 AM
Probably not, I reckon. This is Disney, after all, so you know they've at least got a prequel cartoon series in the works. The Young Jack Sparrow Adventures or somesuch, voiced by Skeet Ulrich.
Damn you Michael Bay by MCMLXXVI	Mar 15th, 2007 06:35:38 AM
Damn you Michael Bay
Watch POTC II and riddle me this: by biggles2_22	Mar 15th, 2007 07:48:45 AM
Why does Kiera look so different in each shot? In some her face looks swollen to the point of explosion, and in others she looks OK. I agree, the wench needs a sammich.
Chow Yun Fat: the Sexiest Tomboy Beanpole on the Planet by DarfurOnTheRocks	Mar 15th, 2007 08:13:26 AM
nuff said
Hey, how about a remake of the first one? by JackPumpkinhead	Mar 15th, 2007 08:31:06 AM
It's, what, five years old? To the morons that don't know 20 year old movies because they're "old", that's eternity. Remake it with John Depp as everyone including the monkey, and all the 13 year old girls will swoon.
By the way, Kiera looks impressive with that sword. by JackPumpkinhead	Mar 15th, 2007 08:33:13 AM
The mustache is risky, but it's new. And the bald head... well, it worked for Britney Spears. And Madonna. Go, Kiera!
What's all this about by Cat_Corporation	Mar 15th, 2007 08:37:56 AM
Chow Yun Fat looking fat in these pics? He looks the same as he always has done!
You know what sucks about it maybe being the last by godzillasushi	Mar 15th, 2007 08:43:53 AM
All these great characters and crazy stories feel like a waste. Like we have 2 great movies with a third on the way and thats it. And why are they taking apart the ship? Just throw it over at Disneyland or something.
I want more PotC by Doctor_Sin	Mar 15th, 2007 09:11:35 AM
This series is far and away the best of any of Disney's recent live offerings like Country Bears or Haunted Mansion. I doubt they will ever get it this right again.
POTC4:Jack Sparrow In Outer Space!! by Douche Baggins	Mar 15th, 2007 09:18:12 AM
Well, if they're going of the world's end, it only makes sense.

Does Chow Yun Fat play Guybrush Threepwood?
The Black Pearl Is NOT being destroyed... by Manos	Mar 15th, 2007 09:42:13 AM
I heard that Disney bought an island in the Carribbean. It will be a port of call on their cruise lines and the Black Pearl will be on display. The entire island will be decked out in a pirate motif. Well, that's what I heard anyway.
Well, I know these haven't been the best films... by Childe Roland	Mar 15th, 2007 09:48:09 AM
...ever made, but damned if they haven't been entertaining thus far. I'm looking forward to this.
Agreed Childe by DarfurOnTheRocks	Mar 15th, 2007 09:54:18 AM
These movies are pure entertainment and wonderful summer movies. After watching the these at the theatre, both me and my wife felt that we got our money's worth.
LONG LIVE The Black Pearl! by ProfGriffin	Mar 15th, 2007 10:39:11 AM
The Pearl is not being destoyed...well not THE Pearl. There is an actual sea worthy, full sized working vessel that Disney will parade around for years and years...the Pearl that is being dismantled is the SOUNDSTAGE set of the Black Pearl (used for more controlled environments etc) Yo HO!
ProfGriffin is right about that... by ElectricDreams	Mar 15th, 2007 11:13:59 AM
Yeah there is the floating hero version of the Black Pearl which has visited many ports on both coasts the past year or so. Obviously they wouldnt dismantle that, but the Black Pearl set went bye bye. A friend at Disney Imagineering said plans have been discussed at taking "Tom Sawyers Island" at Disneyland/world and converting them into a Pirates themed island and replacing the ship that tracks around the surrounding lagoon with a Black Pearl replica. This has not officially been signed off on, apparently they were waiting to see how well this 3rd film went before green lighting it...they might as well start on it now right, we all know it will do great.
Tom Sawyer Island by ProfGriffin	Mar 15th, 2007 11:21:24 AM
Is already being re-furbished into a Pirate adventure. (It's currently closed and progress is beign monitored) Claiming to owe more to Tom and Huck's adventures and 'River Pirates' of Mark Twain nevertheless, there will be a more 'piratey' theme to the lost caves and tunnels and treasure stashes of Injun Joe on the island. Can't wait for it to open this Summer. The sailing ship that makes the rounds at Disneyland, The Columbia, is not going anywhere. There is just too much history there. The Black Pearl would probably best be represented at one of Disney's beachfront Orlando amusement properties, and making the rounds to port towns. Can't WAIT for Pirates 3!
POTC 5: 2Black2Pearl by Doctor_Sin	Mar 15th, 2007 11:27:08 AM
Jack Sparrow helps the current Dread Pirate Roberts battle the former Dread Pirate Roberts. Sean Connery guest stars, wears a hook, and staggers around going, "Yaaarrrggghhh."
So if Dead Man's Chest made $1 Billion by Frijole	Mar 15th, 2007 12:41:38 PM
in worldwide box office. And cost $200million to make- that is an $800million profit. Now I know not all that goes to Disney, but when you add in the merchandising and whatnot... then it's still at LEAST that. Animal Kingdom (in all its glory) cost $800mil to develop and build. So really, that ONE MOVIE retroactively paid for the entire Animal Kingdom. I dunno, that just strikes me as cool for some reason.
wait, what's the black pearl doing here? by phortonfour	Mar 15th, 2007 05:53:48 PM
Wasn't the Black Pearl destroyed by the giant squid at the end of DMC? And now it's miraculously (sp) appeared good as new in the third film? Fishy (pun!) Hollywood logic going on here...or am I just being stoopid?
Photonfour, why BP reappears non-smashed = SPOILER but by finky089	Mar 15th, 2007 06:20:23 PM
having read a good 2/3 of the script myself, let's just say that Capn' Jack Sparrow wasn't the only thing that was resurrected from World's End.
More Pirates movie ARE on the way- possibly by finky089	Mar 15th, 2007 06:37:40 PM
This could be Lucas-talk (SW Episodes 7-9), but i thought I'd read in a couple of places that Disney is heavily considering making another trilogy of Pirates films given the tremendous success of the first two (and surely the impending third installment). Depp and Bruckhiemer are game. Rossio and Elliot were going to try and write another script. But haven't heard anything about it for a while. Anybody else?
There are so many interesting things going on in by superninja	Mar 15th, 2007 06:38:54 PM
these movies. The father/son thing with Will Turner and his dad and now with Jack and his dad. Will and Jack are kind of like mirror images of each other from different moral universes with Lizzy pulled between the two. I'm curious to see where this will all lead in the end.
Chow Yun Fat reminds me of Carey Grant. by superninja	Mar 15th, 2007 06:39:28 PM
For whatever reason. Suave.
Tom Sawyer Island Cont'd by ElectricDreams	Mar 15th, 2007 07:18:48 PM
Well it's good to know my Imagineer source was at least feeding me something that was somewhat on track w/ the revamping of Tom Sawyer Island. He spoke of what I mentioned above last Summer when we were at the June 24th World Premiere at Disneyland and they had retrofitted the Columbia to look like the Black Pearl, it was then he mentioned all of that. Looks like they may have backed off that entire retrofit and gone w/ the River Pirate theme, which I guess still is "Piratey" in some sense. Well perhaps they will do something at one of the Orlando water parks and transform one of those into a POTC theme?
There will definitely be a 2nd POTC trilogy eventually by Rain505	Mar 15th, 2007 09:46:12 PM
Hollywood doesn't think that way, if you think there won't be another Pirates trilogy in a few years time (after POTC 2 made $US 1 billion and after POTC3 inevitably also will). They'll ditch Orlando and Keira for a 2nd POTC trilogy, as they're now both too expensive and neither are interested anyway. If Depp wasn't interested, they'll just find a new and much cheaper lead actor to take over and make them play a relative of Jack's.
OK, wait though by Jaka	Mar 15th, 2007 09:53:03 PM
Did they actually "destroy" it, or just take it apart to store it? Apologies if I missed a previous story about a "Blow up the Black Pearl" party, or something. Also, you have to think that there will be more POTC movies (although I never thought I'd say that when I heard about the first one getting made). They'd be absolutely insane not to if JD wants to do more. It's one of the classic characters of the cinema now. And as much as JD doesn't want to be a "star", he clearly enjoys that aspect of these films.
The Dismantling of the Black Pearl... by ElectricDreams	Mar 16th, 2007 02:43:43 AM
So parts of it were loaded on trucks over the course of about a week, masts, windows, steering mechanisms, some of the railings and support beams, the rest (the hull of the ship) they literally smashed w/ sledge hammers and forklifts on the soundstage, trust me it was daily sight many Disney employees cringed at. I overheard one cast member ask a security guard assigned to the soundstage why they dont just put the whole thing in storage and he said it was too big and too costly to move, so they were just keeping key pieces of it in case they need to rebuild the hull/frame for another movie, they can reattach these various pieces they did keep. Thats' all I know.
Well, that sucks by DarthDooku	Mar 16th, 2007 07:12:30 PM
If all some of you guys like to do is constantly repeat "GOTTA EAT" and make fun of people and post random pointless comments, why post in the first place?
