This past Saturday I have seen 'Pirates of the Carribean and
it was very good. The actors and special effects were also good. I also liked
the ending. It's no wonder that this movie broke the box-office record. It was
worth the money.:)

Yeah, but those numbers are skewed, and the adjustment for inflation is also skewed. Besides, films with multiple re-releases fare MUCH better on those lists.

[Pojo]

yeah, it's very difficult to compare movies to each other.

I saw it on my birthday a few days ago. It was great, the stunts were performed very well, davy jones was well animated, and the story was good.
It was funny how jack carried around the jar of dirt and how everyone was taking the dead man's chest. IMO they put too less of jack in the movie (with the scenes) and was more centered on will.

I got an interesting story to tell about when i got into the theater. The crowd waiting in line stretched from one part of the theater to the other and moved to the front in less than five minutes :eek:

[The PumpKin King]

this weekend pirates of the caribbean dead mans chest finaly lost its first place spot and dropped to second as miami vice took the first place spot this week knocking off the movie that has been the grand champion for the past few weeks

[juli888]

I went on a film, I very much like the person - a spider. Interestingly 3 part when leaves? Because I heard that shortly leaves.
