Perhaps we need a new term like Scalliswank - a hipster pirate?

I ended up seeing the movie last night at midnight down in San Diego... I'll wait to discuss it. I have some thoughts on it...

Saw it today at DTD at 6:15 in theater 5. Any other Swankers in the audiance? It was a cool group, I could tell they were all fans.

I liked the movie, and couldn't realy find a single fault.

Never mind.

Really, RStar? Maybe I should wait until more people see it. I was a big fan of the first movie. It was rich with detail, texture, classic storytelling and comedy elements, legend, and had a strong romantic storyline. All in all, a nearly perfect film. This lacked in so many ways I can barely contain myself over it.

Don't get me wrong, it was entertaining, but paled in comparison to the original. When more people see it, I'll drag out my laundry list.

Well, I have to admit that the reson it didn't dissapoint me is two fold (very slight spoilers).

1) I went in knowing what to expect from what I read about it (Alex, newspapers, and online)

2) The lacking romantic part is not as important to me. I'm an action and story guy. There was a story, while so many said the plot suffered. Sure, character development suffered a little in favor of action. But that didn't bother me as much because they developed them so much in the first film (with the exception of the new ones of course), and I knew there would be a third film and this is a bridge to it. And the ending was cool.

I got out of it exactly what I wanted. And the crowd cheered and applauded, so most of them must have as well.

So can I find faults as a piece of film, or a work of art. Sure, but it's entertainment. I'm a movie buff and watch them often including the classics, and go to the movies once or twice a week. And I liked it and plan to see it again next week.

But everyone has different opinions, and tastes. So, please share yours after a while, I'm interested to see what you thought.

I can safely say the best part of the evening was the company I was in.

I didn't think about it that way, and I have only been on the ride once. I'll go on it again tomorrow and see if I still feel the same.

Alex . Join Date: Feb 2005 Posts: 13,354	Spoiler: I'm not understanding why that would be the case, BTD. The events depicted in the ride are supposed to have taken place well before the events of the first movie. Can you give more detail on why you find the movie affects the ride?
