I hope everyone goes to see this soon as there are so many things I want to say but you need to have seen the film first  If you haven't seen the first one in a while make sure you refresh your memory before seeing this one, they are very closely linked. I totally agree with Roz's first white spoiler and the last minute of the film (before the titles) brought the biggest smile to my face . I too stayed around to watch the seven and half minutes of credits to see what they would do after the film -  We are going next wednesday |

Sound just got back our 9.35 screening was full so we waited for the 10.25 showing. Wow I loved this it was amazing I love the fact it leads to a continuation at the end just great. I didnt wait till the end of the credits did I miss something, flamin big cups of Coke needed the little boys room.
If I missed anything PM me to let me know. Should know better I do watch hollyoaks Doh !

I saw it today, and I loved it. Mind you, I was pretty much the only person in the cinema laughing, but it was hilarious. Loved all the little references to the first movie, and the hint of the title of the second.
Tiny scene after the credits; not really any big hint like the one at the end of movie one.

That's true, but I guess they couldn't do too much in case people didn't see it and it ruined the continuity of the second half  I wonder if that un-dead monkey will become key to the story later on. |

Oh really? Has it been THAT popular? That's GREAT (not for you, but I'm rooting for POTC beating Superman at the box office ). |

I really really enjoyed it... tried to watch it Saturday night, but the friends I tried to talk into it couldn't do it (an 8:30 PM show was too late as it's a 2 1/2 hour movie). Saw it first thing on Sunday morning (10AM) - theatre had a decent crowd for that early - about 25 people. No spoilers, but TONS of references to the first film (and the ride). The official trailers don't spoil too much, but anything else probably will - saw a CBS Sunday Morning thing that gave away SEVERAL things that I thought were key...

I saw the film Saturday and whilst I loved most all of it, the one part that dissapointed me (yes, prepare yourself for the shock)...was Johnn Depp as Captain Jack Sparrow. Sparrow in POTC1 was classic, a great character: devious, cunning, mischevious, smart with occasional moments of comedy. In my opinion, POTC turned him, for the most part, into a walking Chuck Jones cartoon, played mainly for laughs. Gone was most of the devious, cunning, mischevious smarts that made the Sparrow of POTC1 so great. I know most of you probably disagree, but that's my opinion. But I loved most of the rest of the movie. Bill Nighy as Davy Jones was great, and for me, the best moment was the last scene with the cameo appearance (so as not to ruin it for those who haven't seen it or been spoiled already...all maybe one person :p), him with the apple, hah, loved it.

I loved it too don't get me wrong. I suppose it was impossible to keep us guessing - I think we spent a lot of the first film wondering who's side Jack was on, First Will's and then the Commadores (briefly) - until we just decided that he was on Cap'n Jack's side  (with a twist at the end of being on Will's side again  ). There really was no way they could take us on that rollercoaster again because we'd already done it (if that makes sense) and it wouldn't be possible to keep the pace of that again would it? |

I took my two older boys to the movie also!! They liked it, but they did say that Cap'n Jack wasn't as funny in #2 as he was in #1.  Now! What I wonder, I'll be careful with my words here for those who haven't seen it, is, if Elizabeth were to hold the compass, which "way" would the arrow point? HUMMMMM!! |

*Hmm do you mean to Jack or to Will? I'd say Will, I know it was a dicy bit towards the end but she was doing what she needed to to save the masses IMHO (blah blah the sacrifice of the few for the many etc etc), it was rash and she seems to have regretted it. I wonder how Will will react when he gets some time to speak to Elizabeth... and is it entirely fair that we have to wait a year? :'( He hee, boo hoo - I can't wait. *
I know that all the card companies were moaning about license costs on this one, but the box office speaks for itself here (as much revenue in 3 days as Superman has had in a week and 3 days, in America alone (we can't do it worldwide yet as Superman isn't out worldwide), we'd have been all over these cards like a rash, and there were so many throwabout props to make cards from.
All there is to collect so far is the Cards Inc Medallionz, and they aren't my bag TBH.

I want trading cards!!!!! There are 3 US stores with POTC II gift cards - McDonald's (3), WalMart, and KB Toys. Apparently all will have to have $$ put on them before they can leave the stores (which is understandable, but I don't shop at KB Toys)... |
