Who Has Seen/Will See "Dead Man's Chest" Today?

[AnnaZ]

My younger son has been marking off the days -- 45 of 'em -- 'til today. There were 4 midnight shows he begged for (12:01, 12:02, 12:03, 12:04), but since he just turned six, I had to turn him down. We'll be going at 4.

He received just about every Jack Sparrow marketing device for his birthday on the 4th, and will be wearing the outfit to the show (LOL). He's been eating the cereal and M&M's for weeks.

I'm actually looking forward to it, as I love Johnny Depp.

And even fewer pie rats too!

Yours was born on Canada Day, and mine on Independence Day. Funny.

I've already told mine that it might be too scary -- it looks it -- but he has the picture books, and what-not, and thus seems inured to the visuals. My 3-year-old daughter is going as well, and her (July 1st, also) 3-year-old best friend. Us mamas will be ready to cover their eyes, if need be. (But they've seen the original sooooo many times...)

[jw777]

wouldn't there be more pirates since the seas would rise 20ft, according to al gore?

[exile]

Isn't this movie based on a ride? I've got a screenplay about me standing in line for an hour at the DMV, where's my millions?

[weegee]

"What's a move?"

Looks to be the opposite of a pirate:

[AnnaZ]

We have that book! (LOL)

[AnnaZ]

See? There's something for everybody.

[weegee]

Does that grid take into account pirates from the animal kingdom?

[Constitution Day]

That is pretty funny! And I was, of course, born on Constitution Day.

My daughter hasn't seen the original. I thought it might scare her, though she is mad about all things PIRATE.

[Rummyfan]

That's the reason I would go see it! Reviews have not been flattering.

[Moose4]

Ah yes, the lovely Miss Knightly...back when she actually ate.

Har! That makes it all the more clever -- a movie inspired by a Disneyland ride. You obviously haven't seen the first "Pirates," and I would wager you haven't been on the ride. As a fan of both, I found the the first movie to be vastly entertaining, and a fun ride in and of itself.

[AnnaZ]

It's sad... after two boys I was so happy to have a girl, and add some much-needed feminity to the mix. But does she seek to emulate me? No. Not at all. It's all pirates, and all football, all the time. She tackles, and she ARRRR!s, with the best of 'em.

*sigh*

[BreitbartSentMe]

Me capt'n is wantin me to remind ye skurvy dogs not to ferget September 19th is Talk Like A Pirate Day:

[Kenny Bunkport]

Reviews have not been flattering

If the critics hated it, that's a sure sign I'm going to love it.

[Wings-n-Wind]

My three mid-sizers went to the midnight viewing of Pirates II...

All the feedback was good... including the "door left open"... for another sequel...

Meryl is the devil!!!
j/k... glad you enjoyed 'Prada'....

"I saw The Devil Wears Prada last night and LOVED it. Streep is an absolute delight!"

Same here.
Saw it last week.

[AnnaZ]

Prada was just great. Because of Streep, mostly, but some secondary performances were very good also -- Tucci, of course, and the gal who played "Emily". (The scenes with "Andy" and her friends were annoying acting-class-esque, but...) The music was great, the clothes were fab, the bags divine, and the shoes!...
