No one that is pirating wants to stay the whole credits just to see a couple of minutes of none relevent content.

Already linked to it, buz.

Oh wait, i think they took it down ....

Eh, all they show is the fricking dog from the beginning and he's in the same position as Jack was (don't wanna spoil anything). It's about half a minute long.

The first Pirates had one too. It was just that monkey stealing a gold coin, which explains why it still had the curse in the sequel.

I've heard mixed reviews about the new Pirates, but I won't be able to say for myself until I see it.

I watched "The Hills Have Eyes" last night, and while it wasn't the best movie ever, I fairly enjoyed it. It was better than "Wolf Creek" in my opinion, but just slightly below that of "Saw 2". If you like the genre, I definitely recommend it. At least some of the characters actually did some cool shit, besides just run around like idiots. I haven't seen the original, so I can't compare it to that, but I'd rate this move a 9/10, but that's me.

heh, a 9/10 is a pretty good rating for a "fairly good" movie. my brother and i saw wolf creek without knowing what it was about, it was definitely a lot better choice than the family stone :wink:.

the problems with pirates are the ending, rough flow throughout the movie, its slightly repetative, too long, and gives you the movie goers equivalent of blue balls. If the movie ended half an hour sooner i would have come out of the theater thinking it was a decent movie, not great but it kept me amused. i like my brother analogy. its like you were dining at a really fancy restaurant but before the main course gets served some jack ass pulls the fire alarm.

Bah I watched United 93. The first half sucked the big one. Second half was fairly nice and exciting.
1/10 for first half
8/10 for second half

I'll second that. 8/10


As for Pirates; in a lot of ways it is like Matrix: Reloaded. On its own its a pretty poor movie, too long to leave you hanging the way it does at the end. But I think if you were to watch it, then watch the third Pirates movie right after you would enjoy it more. It was a fun and entertaining movie though. 7/10

Speaking of Matrix, I also saw Superman Returns. A lot of scenes reminded me of the Matrix, from the minigun and slowing the bullets down then watching them drop to the whole savior thing. Maybe its just me... I did enjoy the movie though. Sure, I didnt really care for any of the actors, and the fact that he lost his powers being on the island, but he could lift the whole thing. That was pretty lame. I enjoyed the movie though, worth seven bucks to see. 7/10

That was the only thing that was stupid in the film.

I mean alittle part of kryptonite hurt him enough he almost died when Lex stabbed him but suddenly he can carry an hole island of kryptonite without getting really hurt.

Thank you. My cousin and I saw this and we thought it was total bullshit. I hate it when movies just shit all over the idea of continuity. *Spoilers Below*

1.) Superman can land on a small continent that at least has veins of Krytonite, and not notice until Lex sucker-punches him and lauches him 30 feet back.

2.) Superman gets stabbed with a Krytonite shiv and almost dies.

3.) Superman can now lift the entire Krytonite continent, with huge ass shards of the stuff jutting out no more than 3 feet from his face, and launches it into space.


Also, Superman and Pirates have also gotten us on the topic of how Hollywood is fucking up the emotions of an entire geneeration with the "Romance" aspect of these movies.

Pirates: Will Turner is a decent, honest, good looking man who is toally un love with Elizabeth and essentially gets ready to sell his soul to get a chance to live out a happy life, and when she holds up the compass, it shows that what she wants most in the world is Captain Jack. Meanwhile the audience just ho hums and acts like nothing is wrong with that.

Superman: This dude who Lois is engaged to is basicaly any chicks dream: Good looking, good job, nice guy, loves his family and is willing to die to protect them. His only flaw is that he isn't fucking Superman. He gets the shaft simply because he can't go zipping around throught the sky hand in had with his beloved.

Superman and Richard White thing i can understand.


But no women in her clear mind would choose Turner before Jack, he might be crazy but he got charisma and that shines more than the pretty boy.

I really disliked the Superman movie but I'm sorry, you people are bitching about the most stupid things.

1) Kryptonite fucks Superman up.

2) You establish the former in the movie by really fucking up Superman with kryptonite.

3) You prove that Superman is a hero by having him struggle to overcome his inherent weakness to save millions of lives.

It's that simple.

We're talking about a man that can take bullets as if nothing, bend steel with his bare hands and shoot lasers out of his eyes (heat vision actually) but god forbid he actually manages to survive a hunk of rock whose negative effects on Supes are largely a mystery.

The movie has far more retarded plot issues for us to complain about (Luthor just assumes that the newly formed continent will legally be his? Or the whole "Hey, Clark is back and so is Superman! But it MUST be nothing more than a freak coincidence" thing).

I guess we're all fucking experts on kryptonite all of a sudden.

"What?! The kryptonite didn't kill him?! OMG, Continuity!!!"

Give me a break.

Maybe it's just like Martian Manhunter, he isn't really weak to fire, but it's just his mind thinks that he's weak to it, heh.

Its simple but still its stupid way to tell a story.


You dont have to be an expert to see that for to carry that much kryptonite without it killing him before he did carry it away.


Superman is boring in many ways but the most boring thing about him is that nowadays not even kryptonite hurt him as it use to. He is really invincible, atleast before he died a couple of time.


Lex was a joke, i mean what was his plan after getting the island. How would he stop the world from bombing his ass to pieces. I mean unlike the comic stoy Up Up and away he didnt have a kryptonian warship to save his ass.

Not to turn this into a comic book discussion but when I heard that Superman became immune to kryptonite my first thought was "about fucking time."

A common thug could conceivably kill the all mighty Superman if he has kryptonite handy.

It's a shitty plot device that shitty writers exploit to create shitty stories.

The only thing that sucks is that Batman's kryptonite ring is now useless.

PS: Anyone that thinks Superman is boring should watch Justice League.

PPS: Yeah, the kryptonite continent wasn't the best thing ever but it's the last thing on my mind when I think of all the stuff that made Superman Returns shitty.

He hasnt become immune to kryptonite its just it doesnt kill cause of how they write him in movies and comics. I havent read the latest comic so if you mean they say he is immune there but they would never do that would they...


Without the kryptonite Superman is even more useless and the lamest comic hero there is,cause nobody is suppose to be like that who cant be killed.



I didnt expect anything of this movie other than some good action and something of Lex. Action was good and Lex was alittle lame.

I didnt expect anything cause i never was a fan of superman.


This movie reminded me why my fav hero is Batman, nobody yells out in the middle of the day "ITS BATMAN"

Will Turner is a huge wussy, captain jack is a raging bad ass in comparison. its how real life works. Its quite obvious that she would be sexually attracted to capt jack more than she would turner. and trust me, women fall for the "Jacks" of the world more often than not in the real world

as for the compass pointing to jack idea: the whole joke of the movie was that she was on top of the treasure and walked past it so that the compass changed direction pointing towards jack, not that what she really wanted changed from the treasure to jack at that instance.
