They are doing it in So Cal by Gizmo Gremlin	Mar 15th, 2007 03:17:24 AM
They're actually doing it all over the country. I signed up on the Disney website and got my tickets today. It's Sunday at the El Capitan.
Damn you Michael Bay by MCMLXXVI	Mar 15th, 2007 06:28:15 AM
Damn you Michael Bay
Just signed up, too... by Zarles	Mar 15th, 2007 08:18:29 AM
Still waiting on confirmation, but with a little luck, my ass will be in a seat in NYC this Sunday. BTW, what's the rating on this movie? I hope it's an ARRRRRRRRRRR!!!
Thanks Giz by finky089	Mar 15th, 2007 11:25:34 AM
I hope they still have tickets! (I should have figured the El Capitan would have something, but all I've seen lately is about Meet the Robinsons)
Seems like overkill for a 2 minute trailer by Trazadone	Mar 15th, 2007 11:29:03 AM
Seriously, if you were showing the actual film that's one thing, but seriously, who gives a shit about a trailer? I'll catch it online an hour later when some nerd posts it. Seems like a whole lot about nothing.
I'll take bets that "piracy" refers to something badass by Doctor_Sin	Mar 15th, 2007 11:32:12 AM
You know Harry. This will wrap up with something special in the way of surprises at the end.
Piracy Spoiler by purplemonkeydw	Mar 15th, 2007 11:34:27 AM
If you show up to the event, expect a mass car jacking. Word to the wise, ride a bike.
And there will be punch and pie by Knobules	Mar 15th, 2007 03:04:44 PM
mmm. pie.
Crap Hole by thereviewer	Mar 15th, 2007 03:51:50 PM
I will not be back from being out of town.
Good times by infallible	Mar 15th, 2007 04:39:27 PM
Hopefully, all the tools that are here for SXSW will be gone by then. Love the Pirates movies, love the Alamo, and this event sounds like a blast! Hope I get on the list to go.
what's next? a parade for a teaser poster? by torpor_haze	Mar 15th, 2007 10:32:39 PM
I can wait for quicktime which will be on Apple few hours after you guys see it.
gosh by vaterite	Mar 15th, 2007 10:41:22 PM
uhhh....I'm sure you guys are very excited about this event, but don't you think you could have found a better place to post this than the main page of your, generally informative site, you know for those who visit the site, yet strangely don't live in Texas?
IT'S QUIET...A LITTLE TOO QUIET by Spunkmeyer24	Mar 15th, 2007 10:48:26 PM
IT'S RAPHAEL...A LITTLE TOO RAPAHEL
Saw a 5 minute preview.. by Redfive!	Mar 16th, 2007 02:11:13 AM
Last summer at comic con.I dont know why people are making a big deal out the trailer and holding press events/parties etc.It does look good but its NOT gonna be the greatest movie ever.
PLANT by fractureJonze	Mar 16th, 2007 10:32:02 AM
Looks shite...
For those that have requested tickets... by Zarles	Mar 16th, 2007 01:36:50 PM
Did you get a confirmation email or anything back after you sent in your info? Haven't heard anything back yet. Oh, and to all you "A party for a trailer?" assholes, kill yourselves. Especially all you Brits. God forbid you should stop sucking off your XBox for eight minutes and go outside.
Check In? by Xanthos Samurai	Mar 17th, 2007 12:04:56 PM
Exactly how is that going to work? Do we just give our names or what? And is there going to be a confirmation email? (I doubt it since there isn't already one at this point.) I just want to make sure that my group gets in.
for Zarles and Xanthos Samurai by CheriBomb	Mar 17th, 2007 01:47:21 PM
There is no confirmation email. If your name is on the list, you got in. You will need to have a picture ID to show when you check in at the theater.
Thanks, Cheri... by Zarles	Mar 17th, 2007 02:04:46 PM
But I didn't mean for the one in Austin. I'm trying to get into the one in NYC.
I'm going to one... by Howard the Duck	Mar 17th, 2007 07:23:56 PM
...in South Jersey. Saw an ad for it in the Saturday newspaper. Sent an email, and forgot about it. My wife gets home, checks the email, and there's one from someone we don't know. Good thing she opened it, 'cause it didn't have a "This is for the Pirates event" in the subject line. I've never been to something like this before. At the very least, I'll get to see Curse of the Black Pearl with a bunch of lucky Pirates fans. And yes, you need a photo ID that matches the info you sent in the email in order to get in...unless you pull a Fletch on 'em.
Damn by Xanthos Samurai	Mar 17th, 2007 09:43:11 PM
Photo ID? I'll have mine but one of my party's a minor and doesn't have a photo ID and the other one fell through so I have a replacement. I wonder if I could get one of the names changed if I email 'em. What do you guys think?
Xanthos, don't worry too much... by Howard the Duck	Mar 18th, 2007 08:30:09 AM
...the Photo ID is probably only for the person who initially sent the email to try and win tickets. The form you need to print out says that it is good for two persons, but doesn't say anything about the second person needing an ID. Good luck to ya!
Trailer in Russian by jabbathegriffin	Mar 18th, 2007 04:06:46 PM
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v =aOz5_ixv5Zs Looks good---I forgot how cool a swordfight can look at when not in slow-motion.
So how was it? by Zarles	Mar 19th, 2007 07:15:37 AM
Was it better than staying home and sucking off your XBox, or what?
It was pretty cool, especially when... by Howard the Duck	Mar 19th, 2007 09:19:20 AM
...during the credits of Curse of the Black Pearl. During which, everyone was talking amongst themselves, semi-loudly. That is, until the very end of the credits, when Captain Barbossa's monkey named Jack shows up near the cursed Aztec gold, takes a coin, and screeches at the camera. Honestly, you'd think that a theatre full of Pirates fans would've known about this by now. After the monkey, everyone was remarking how they never saw that part before. Priceless. And the trailer for At World's End was shown twice, right after the movie. Looks great, and I cannot wait to see the film. And it was cool to see filmed intros by Orlando Bloom, Jerry Bruckheimer, and Geoffrey Rush, made specially for the event. I was glad I did it.
I thought it was all right... by Neuron	Mar 19th, 2007 01:57:24 PM
As I watched the first POTC I realized that I didn't think it was that great of a movie... it was fun and surprising the first time around (especially with no buzz or hype), but it doesn't really stand up as a huge and hyped blockbuster. The trailer was pretty cool (although it was really annoyed when we had to wait about ten minutes after the movie was over because someone had loaded it incorrectly) and it definitely promises way more mayhem than the first two. I'm looking forward to it. Overall, though, it probably wasn't worth four hours of my time just to see a trailer.
Pirates Movies = Johnny Depp's WORST films by KAWS	Mar 19th, 2007 04:11:36 PM
And this includes 21 JumpStreet. How the hell do people watch someone as talented as Depp reduce himself to a quirky and unfunny character of a clown Pirate. Not to mention, a movie based on a fucking Disney ride. The IQ of humanity is truly dwindling. Let us hope that this is the last Pirates movie, so that this man can move on to something worthy of his talents. You know this to be true.
Kaws... by Zarles	Mar 19th, 2007 05:02:27 PM
Fuck off, you pretentious dick. If your room in Mommy's house has a window, throw yourself out of it. No one will miss you in high school tomorrow.
