I thought that, too, until I saw Resident Evil: Extinction. Makes Jack Sparrow look like Charles Foster Kane.

Resident Evil ist funny but no compare to Pirates of the Carribean

And yet, all my friends find it better than the second one.

The good thing of bad movies: People forget them. Pirates of the Caribbean (at least »Chest« and »Worlds End«) will not survive the next generation, har har.

No I wonder what’s your Top Ten Best Movies of all Time…

Haha!! absolutely! it's that bad

Sadly I have to agree with you there Ron...
Loved the first, liked the second and hated the third.
It felt like every character had it's own little subplot, so most of the times I had no idea of what the hell was going on.

Haha, right on... I bought the DVDs for the first two, but I didn't even bother for the third one. I'd much rather see that Monkey Island movie that was planned but never came into existence.

Something tells me Ron is full of anger

Well, he does have to WORK now... at a JOB.....

well, he has to maintain his grumpy reputation, doesn't he?

best regards from russian gamers

I would reverse #5 and #6, but otherwise this list is right on the money.

Personally I found it bloody awesome, it would have been 10x better if Chow Yun-Fat didn't die.

I personally thought it was great, like the other PotC movies. Then again, I don't think there is a pirate movie I don't like.

So, gotta disagree completely there with ya Ron. Dumb and Dumberer is worst ever :]

Edit to my last post there,

AT LEAST THIS MOVIE DIDN'T HAVE JOHN AGAR IN probably because he's dead.

Hey Ron,
now that it even fits under this topic,could you finally tell me,if you believe the screenwriters of the movie,when they maintain not to know monkey island?

I have no way of knowing for sure, but I'd lay money down that they never heard of the game.  You have to remember that Monkey Island was hugely influenced by the Pirates of the Caribbean ride, of which the move was directly based.

of course, if they had ever been influenced by Monkey Island the third movie wouldn't have been that bad.

I enjoyed the first one though.  A lot.

if it were influenced by the Monkey Island games, they would have fired Gore Verbinski, Johny Deep, Keira Knightley and Legolas for the third movie. Then, the fourth one would be directed by Uwe Boll and animated with a motion capture technique like Zemecki's Beowulf. :P

AND if what I read on Wikipedia wasn't a load of untrue crap, they denied ever doing so.

That might be the case, but you know... the wiggling compass, the voodoo lady, the cannibals, a dead pirate with that oh-so-strange-moving-beard as main villain, that key the hero has to get, etc. all in one movie (plus those I can't remember right now). I find these coincidences quite uncanny, to say the least. Yeah, at least they didn't play perudo in MI2.

Since you don't know it for sure. I will suppose they played monkey Island 1 and 2 when they were really young... so they had this latent memory of your games while writing down that screenplay... that kepts good until was based on their moneky island reminiscence. When they had to write down some new stuff... it sucked! :^P

I have it on good authority that they were likely aware of at least the Monkey Island movie.

It IS bad, but to me the first place goes to Stuart Little. And I mean, sure, who has any expectations on THAT movie? but anyway, is just horrible. What scared me the most was finding out that M Night Shyamalan (one of my favorite Writer/Directors) co-wrote it.

You are forgetting the AVP movies.

Amen to that

Yeah, that was the consensus in my circle of friends. Two of us put up reviews of it here and here if you're at all interested in our take on it; my disappointment was too expansive to be contained in a blog comment.

I wholeheartedly agree with the sentiment, if not the list itself. I loved the original Pirates..., thought the second was enjoyable if a little long but found the third to be just barely watchable. By the end of it I had absolutely no idea what was happening or why. Absolutely terribly movie.

It was disappointing, but it's really not in the running for worst film of all time.

Spiderman 3 was worse.

I liked both Spiderman 3 and PotC. Of course theyre hollywood shit, but they're still entretaining.

yep! Spiderman 3 was truuuuly BS. I've never been so dissappointed by a sequel ever. You have to remember Matrix 2 and 3 though... or better, don't remeber.

And as it goes for PotC 3, yeah, the plot was scambled, confusing and lame.

I loved MI1 & 2, but didn't bother much to play MI3 and so forth (thanks to the exclusion of our goodly Gilbert). Same goes to PotC i think.

MI4 is truly lame.

On the other hand I really love the plot of MI3 (although undoubtedly uncle Ron had better plans for it), the concept, the art, the music, and everything else.

Dude, has no one here seen White Chicks? That has to be the worst movie.
I have to stay, Pirates 3 was entertaining though agreed it was overrun with subplots that had no point or end in sight. It was still entertaining and really whats why we go to movies!

Top 3 worst movies of all time:

1) White Chicks
2) Santa with Muscles
3) Lawnmower Man 2

They made a second lawnmower man?  Can't top the first.

THE worst EVER movie, probably even worse than Lawnmower Man is:

THE INCREDIBLY STRANGE CREATURES THAT STOPPED LIVING AND BECAME MIXED UP ZOMBIES

I pretty much agree.

The fans like the action in the first 2 movies. But they just OVERDID it.
I mean: 2 ships in some giant Malström, shooting at each other.
Apart from that, it was full of shitty Pathos and yabbering about love and blahblahblah.
Sure, the guy who was a blacksmith in the first video is now a better pirate than anyone. And it really felt like the main characters were changing the sides every 10 minuts. Just everyone vs. everyone.






Oh yes captain. I am glad you captured and sunk our ship and killed all of us. So glad.

Yeah, the malström was just utterly ridiculous... That it had that dramatic music didn't make it one bit better... :/

Well i have to say i absolutly loved the first part of PotC 'cos it reminded me of monkey island.
But already the second part was a bit overdone.
And in the third there were several parts i didn't liked.. for example right before this szene the stupid calypso stuff when she grew bigger and bigger... and exploded in cancers..beside the fact she was a god of course ^^

Oh yeah! I almost forgot about Calypso (she had sooo much potential as a vodoo queen). The Maelstrom was stupid (shoooting at each other??? are they f***in stupid??).... the end of the world was so boring... heck, what wasted potential. They should have stopped after the first one. The second was good, but looking at it as a prelude to part 3 makes it much less enjoyable.

My opinion : Pirates of the carribean 1 was influenced by Monkey Island 1&2... and pirates of the carribean 3 was influenced by the so-called Monkey Island 3.

The worst film of all time in the history of mankind in the universe in this reality is... ALONE IN THE DARK!

UWE BOLL YOU SUCK!!!!!!!!!

watch this ;) -> http://i11.tinypic.com/6lctl5u.gif

Yeah. Uwe Boll is a freak of nature.

@FrenchBoulet:
Disneyworld has a fun ride called 'Pirates of the Carribean' and it has existed already before MI 1.
R.G. himself says he was influenced by this ride.
So MI is influenced by PotC not the other way round.

At least Disney has changed its ride recently and it now has the look of the PotC movies... you can watch videos of both the old and the new ride on youtube.

@KossVaresh:
Uwe Boll has created a new genre. It's no longer called trash, no, he has made up the new genre called 'crap'. Haha.
Thank him for that.

Have a nice weekend

The thing you gotta think about, actually, is that Ted Elliot wrote the story for PotC1, but only shortly after his Monkey Island movie gig with Steven Spielberg(Who is a fan of the game), fell through. So he even admitted (somewhere, but it was a year or two ago I read this), that when he was coming up with characters and the story for PotC1, he "borrowed" alot from his brainstorming and work on the Monkey Island Movie.

Really??? That's actually pretty cool.  With all of the speculation that's been thrown around in the Monkey Island internet community for the past few years, you'd think somebody else would have known about that.

My "Top Ten Worst Movies of all Time" list has like 1000 movies in it :-s

I disagree!
'Mickey Blue Eyes' has to have at least one of those positions!

To be honest I thought the second was horrible and the third was watchable.

Indeed, its a pretty bad movie. Monkey Island Mov...I mean, pirates 2 was really entertaining an funny even though it didnt top the first, but pirates 3 its really the worst way to end the series. I was extremely disappointed on the final part when i was waiting for a mass conflict between both fleets and all i got was a sissy duel between the black pearl and the flying dutchman.

Oh, and as always, orlando bloom and keira knightley suck cock.

So true! ^.^

I would like to see a Top Ten of third part movies

I would have to replace #1 with Atonement.
#2 was WAY TOO BORING even for a pirate movie. Sigh.
#3 Evan Almighty (and any other film starring Steve Carell)
#4 Hairspray
#5 No Country for Old Men (it was OK for the first 3/4 then it fell apart)
#6 Elizabeth: The Golden Age
#7 Walk Hard: The Dewey Cox Story
#8 Dragon Wars
#9 Bee Movie
#10 The Simpsons Movie

Like many others I was very pleasantly surprised by part one. I thought it would be another hyped, big-budget movie, but hey it was fun, unexpected and ironic.

But frankly, part 2 already sucked. Nothing ever happened. It literally felt like watching someone play a bad adventure game. Go find this item, bring it to this person. Find that person, bring him that item. No clear quest, just a lot of sailing around. And after two hours I knew why: They had simply forgotten to write an ending.

It's sad I still had to endure part 3. But the girl-friend, who hated part 2 as much as I did, had forgotten all about with all the media frenzy and some of her friends watching it twice (!) and loving it. Well, she learned her lesson the hard way. Hard 168 minutes...

Had they cut the last two together to one 90 minute flick, it probably wouldn't have been half bad... (And if not, at least it would have been half as long.)

My previous top-ten of worst movies consisted of 2002's "Extreme Ops" - a 93-minute skiing-against-terrorists thriller. For a good description of how these movies made me feel read a comment named "Nothing extreme about these ops" at http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0283160/usercomments

Part two was a bit like the second Matrix movie for me... there were things I didn't like about them, but I gave them the benefit-of-the-doubt because they were gearing up for a really awesome finale (kinda like the way The Two Towers is gearing up for the big finish in LotR).

Unfortunately, the finales in both Matrix and PotC were pretty bad.  Both trilogies could have been much better as two movies, but I guess that only leaves the studios with 2/3 the profit...

I preferred it to the second one too.  Neither the second or third lived up to the unexpected delight of the first one.

Ron, you're forgetting Timecop.

Totally agree.
I thought it was terrible, neverending and boring - and I liked part 1 & 2!
The thing I couldn't really stand was the lack of the humor which characterized the first movie. Everyone took everything so seriously in this film, except Sparrow, but he wasn't enough.

I got "At World's End" for christmas and saw it again. It was still bad, but not as bad as it seemed the first time I saw it. I agree that it is still one of the worst films of 2007 (the best characters die in the first half of the movie), but it's not even close to stinkers like Emmerich's Godzilla or Schumacher's Batman & Robin. And yeah, anything by Uwe Boll.

That being said, I still wouldn't mind a fourth movie. The franchise still has potential, and thanks to the ending of PotC3, Keira Knightley and Orlando Bloom can't appear in it; Norrington and Governour Swann are dead, so we could introduce a whole new cast of characters. Depp would have to appear for the film not to flop, but I'd reduce him to a background character who wouldn't even appear for the first two thirds of the movie.

Hand the director's seat to Edgar Wright, add actors that are actually funny, and write a script that is actually funny. Et voilá, tentpole movie for 2010.

Or, you know, just don't make another movie and make a completely different movie about pirates that's actually good.

:)

A lot of the commenters have named 21st century movies as the worst movie of all time. Isn't that a bit myopic? How about such classics as "Plan 9 From Outer Space" or "Castle of Dr. Fu Manchu"?

Or if you think those are camp and therefore not as bad as all that, what about "Manos, the Hands of Fate"?

Or of course:

THE INCREDIBLY STRANGE CREATURES THAT STOPPED LIVING AND BECAME MIXED UP ZOMBIES

I only liked the second one, so whats wrong with me?  The first one only needed to be half as long as it was.  The 2nd half of the story is a needless repeat of the first.  And the 2nd and 3rd films are like a giant remake of the first film, with there being no reason for the 3rd one, the plot literally ends at a moment that was previously at the end of 2nd film, but they chose not to end it here so they could have a 3rd film.

arensb: As opposed to films like Dumb and Dumberer or Godzilla or... Pirates 3, Plan 9 had charme. At least Ed Wood was trying.

Nah, it was way better than the second one.

At World's End was horrible, but not nearly as horrible as the re-make of Rollerball.

Sorry to drop this stink bomb on your comments page, but...

Wait for it...

. . . http://www.rollerball.com/win_300.html

Ahhh!  There we go!  Feel much better now.

They seemed to rip of The Adventure of Baron von Munchhausen a lot, to me.  However, it is a much, much better movie.

Yeah... this movies sucks...

The first is normal, Orlando is bad actor but Depp saves the movie (in the first... in the first), but the argument is not bad at all, well, is not a copy & paste from Monkey Island.

But the second, is simple, is a copy of Monkey Island, the chest of dead man, the woman vudú, the Le chucks cousin (or maybe his lost brother or something like this...whatever), the cannibals and others.

Ok, people of Disney, i think that Monkey island deserve a special mention into the bases of the movies at least, and no say: "eh...Monkey Island? who?"

Un saludo!

P.D: Ah...I dont see the third movie... the second was enough for me xD

Pirates isn't based on Monkey Island. It is based on the Pirates of the Caribbean ride at Disney Land, SO IS MONKEY ISLAND.

Monkey Island was also influenced by Tim Power's pirate-voodoo novel, "On Stranger Tides."

A lot of the darker elements of MI come from things totally unrelated to the ride.

You could argue that someone that is working on PoC is at least familiar with MI--- there are a few things that appear to be nods, but I certainly wouldn't say that either is based on the other.

And while you can certainly say that the ride influenced both the film and the game, I wouldn't go so far as to say that they're "BASED" on it-- the ride, while it has some depth, doesn't have the kind of plot elements to BASE anything off of...

Anyone that thinks any of these movies were any good is wrong.

Fell asleep in the first one. Stuck needles in my eyes instead of watching the second one. Gouged out my optical nerve with the handle of a spoon instead of watching the third.

Depp is a fine man but what a load of tedious bollocks.

An actual Disney Pirates of the Caribbean 15" LCD TV is now available at Wal-Mart for your viewing pleasure!

http://www.walmart.com/catalog/product.do?dest=9999999997&product_id=6225753&sourceid=34293261423422391248

Just the TV is put in the Captain's water closet or the brig.

That's gotta some LCD tv for 200 bucks..

Guess I'm the only one actually liking all the movies...

It sucks!

There are tons of movies that suck, but for 99% of them you actually understand the story, even if it's pathetic. The next day after seeing Pirates of the Caribbean 3, I was honestly incapable of recalling anything from the story, because it made no sens at all to me. It was extremeley confusing, none of the characters actions made any sense... It's the first time I really fet insulted in a theater (I mean apart from someone sitting IN the theater), I had the irritating feeling that the movie was really aimed at idiots, by idiots.

My Top Ten Worst Movies of all Time:
10) Pirates of the Caribbean: At Worlds End
9) Mission to Mars

7) Mission to Mars
6) Pirates of the Caribbean: At Worlds End

6. Night of the Blood Beast
5. The Mole People
4. Gamera
3. Prince of Space
2. Escape 2000
1. The Incredibly Strange Creatures that Stopped Living and became Mixed up Zombies

Are there any Zombie-Pirates or a Voodoo-Lady in the Pirates of the Caribbean Ride?
Strange coincidences....

Hell, they even managed to work that copy-protection wheel into the third movie.

lol I've seen many worse movies which don't even make it to the top 10 in the world of any list you could think of, because they are not famous(and hopefully won't ever be).
We watched a movie in a movie theater. This movie was called "The elephant". At the beginning damn boring, at the end it was like a massacre. And we had to answer questions to that stupid movie! This sucks more than paying for a movie like PoC: At Worlds End, where you just watch it of yours own volition, where you don't need to answer stupid teacher questions and you know, what this movie is about or what rates it got in some magazines.
Believe me: You shouldn't watch a movie, which is just based on a book, a sequel or just because the name sounds good. There are some movies, which never get that famous, but some of them are better than the typical Hollywood movie stories.

Gus Van Sant's "Elephant"? I loved that movie. Really powerful stuff.

yeah this one. But every schoolmate just said, it's not that good because of the scenic cut at the end. The story itself, though it is based on a real event, was good, but it was kinda shocking how quiet and nice it has been until the cut destroyed the whole scene within seconds. It's odd, that in this movie a character is named and seconds later he gets shot. This is, what makes me think of a bad movie. I don't wanna see or read more about it, since I don't like it.

best film ever made!
requests to me ;)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=juWJ40s_REw

and by the way...
"Pirates of the Caribbean: At Worlds End" is shitty as my final examination was.

Dude... I like Pirates of the Caribbean and I think that the 3th was the best of the trilogy.
You are no longer my god, you're just a fag, stop crapping other people movies and make an MI3/4/5/6, whatever, now.

PS: With love

Agreed!
The first Pirates of the Caribbean was a good movie, the second had funny and criative situations but the history didn't went well, but the last one... I still want my money back from the cinema...

You're just been grumpy. It's not the best movie, but definitly it's funny.

@Ron: Hey what about your 10 favorite movies list?

Here is mine:

1) The Red Violin
2) Edward Scissorhands
3) Forest Gump
4) Les Choristes
5) Ameli
6) Back to the Future trilogy
7) Xizao
8) Malena
9) Nuovo Cinema Paradiso
10) Star Wars trilogy

And well Pirates of the Caribbean trilogy is the worst I have ever seen, the second and specially the last one... should never have existed.

Forest Gump? Dude, this movie is some hollywood-history!

He was talking about his favorite top ten

Les Choristes ? I didn't even know that one had been exported out of france, I'm a bit surprised.

Even was nominated for two Oscars (best music and best foreign language film)

i loved Pirates 3 :o fantastic trilogy! first one was the best tho!

Yay!

I must add "The Island" to my list of the worst movies of all time...

Sorry, but I did really enjoy PotC 3, even if the movie looks like it wasn't edited at all and with all the DVD bonus scenes already in the actual movie, but it was made with love of fun. And I love fun.

But the first one is a true masterpiece, and yes I'm serious.

The second one is easily forgettable.

Voilà. Internet is awesome, I couldn't have lived without giving here my opinion.

PS : I love your writing, Mr. Gilbert

I did actually enjoy the first one.
But halfway through the second one I found that wiggling around in the crappy theater seat trying to figure out which one of my butt cheeks was more asleep than the other was more interesting than the rest of the movie. So I don't think I'll even bother seeing the 3rd.

Ron I love you

Well, I half expected Jar Jar Binks to show up at some point. He never did, however ..

Look at it this way: at least it wasn't Ishtar.

Ron, make sure to roll "Deathspank, the movie" before some jerks steal your material, AGAIN :)

You know I scribbled down some fake movie poster for a DeathSpank movie down today.

"The Film Adaptation Of:
Gilbert and Kauzlaric's
DEATHSPANK: "Push Space to Jump" "

The tagline being: "Why is he jumping up and down like that?"

Also: "WITH CAMEOS by RON GILBERT and CLAYTON KAUZLARIC"
What can I say? I was bored.

i liked pirates 3 a lot.
but then again i don't go on the internet like every other nerd and tell everyone how bad every movie/game/book/other for of entertainment is just to feel good about myself.
its getting old.

As someone that sat through the first 15 minutes of Space Jam, I feel personally offended by your top ten.

Why are you looking this then?
Remember:
Ron Gilbert's often incoherent and bitter ramblings about the Game Industry (you should add, "and the movie Industry too" Ron)

Pirates of the Caribbean: At Worlds End seemed to be made kind of rushed... just like Spiderman 3... and Terminator 3... hmm

I don't think Spiderman 3 was rushed, I just think the studios forced Sam Raimi to put Venom in and really thats what screwed the whole movie. They should have focused on one villain (Sandman) like the other movies.

This movie did suck , as an independent film director, want a be money gratious  director...I hate this film. Too racey , too much cgi. The characters unthruthful , way too long. It was garbage.

When I make a film it will be for real and something different for once.

But, we wrote the lengthy LeChuck chat, since we didn’t know where Ron was going with the ending to Monkey Island 2

Pirates of the caribbean is like MONKEY ISLAND.

RON GILBERT MAKE A NEW MONKEY ISLAND, PLEASE!!!!!

Everyone, please stop asking me to make another Monkey Island.  I don't own the rights to Monkey Island.  I can't make another Monkey Island.  If I could make another Monkey Island, I would make another Monkey Island.  Please stop asking.

  -- Thanks, the management.

And this is the Curse of Monkey Island ;)

Go Ron! Go Ron! Go Ron!

Oooh! Oooh! Gimme an R! Gimme an O! Gimme an N! What's it backwards? NOR!

"I don't own the rights to Monkey Island."

Well, Ron... make a new hit game... if you did it once, you can make it again,  then after making a bunch of money... you would be able to buy the rights of Monkey Island... and finish the work, that you should have finish 15 years ago.

I want to play "Ron Gilbert's Monkey Island III" before dieing...

he's actually working in a new hit game, you're quite lost

The thing is, I'm not sure if Ron knows how to make a hit game. He knows how to make a good game, and there was a time when hit games were often good games and vice-versa, but I fear those times are over.

No one seems to get that, maybe we should all start flooding LucasArts's servers, and if that doesn't work...

(reverse psychology time!)

Whatever you do Ron, DON'T MAKE A MONKEY ISLAND GAME!

Ha ha ha ha... Good Idea!!!

Hey Ron, listen, LucasArts is going DOWN. If you just walk through the doors of the headquarters and ask them to hire you to make the original Monkey Island 3, or an adaptation, or something like that, I'm sure they'd accept you with open arms.

The secret of monkey island is that  Guybrush is a kid and he is at a Amusement park like Disneyworld???? ;)

I need your Monkey Island 3!!! You Talk with Lucas Arts!!!

If I buy the monkey island rights from lucasarts, with my lottery winnings, will you make the next Monkey Island?

Yes, Dan. DO IT!!!!!!!!!!!

All the fans wants it!!!!

Ehi Ron, tell us you FAVOURITE movies now!!!

Yeah... tell us!!! :)

Ron's FAVORITE movies?!  No chance, that wouldn't be grumpy!!

Is this just because the first Pirates of the Carribean movie took so many ideas from Monkey Island. :P

No it's just that we didn't have nothing better to do at that moment...

Ron Gilbert wrote:

"I have no way of knowing for sure, but I'd lay money down that they never heard of the game.  You have to remember that Monkey Island was hugely influenced by the Pirates of the Caribbean ride, of which the move was directly based."

does the ride contain Zombie pirates,a voodoo lady,a naive but charismatic maincharacter who is becoming more and more pirate with a a costume-development like guybrush in part I and II,le chuck's brother,a rubberchicken-like scene,a mix n mojo wheel,a verbal-oriented swordfight,swimming caskets,funny cannibals with lots of fruit.......................and that are only some of the obvious parallels

I'm really confused,because i see no reason for the writers to lie,but that simply are too many coincidences.

A further source of Inspiration that MI and PotC have in common is "On stranger tides",but that doesn't explain it either

It really is such a disaster of a cinematic experience.

However, there is that delightful little ten minute short film smack in the middle with Johnny Depp and thousands of CGI crabs.  

I really feel if they'd cut everything but that and released it to art house theaters it would have been much better for everyone.

@Ron
Surely you know that side.
Do you think,that's only Monkeyshine?

MonkeyIslandMovie

That's the proper link

what is the point of this list?

You forgot "Pirates of the Caribbean: At Worlds End."

considering Xmen 3 and Spiderman 3 - I was pleasantly surprised by Pirates 3 - but maybe I just like movies that "explain" theme park rides?
From now on Crab & Dali will be forever linked

You haven't seen "Manos: The Hands of Fate" have you, Ron? Or "Hobgoblins?" Guess not. Those are worse than Pirates 3.

I concur, though. The latter two Pirates movies were... not so hot. I actually met my girlfriend over making observations about the resemblances between Pirates 2 and Monkey Island. Pirates 3 was just... blegh, though. They don't "explain" anything, they just pulled a bunch of crap out of their butts. None of it has any relevance to any of the prior movies, and they turned all these wonderfully original characters and ideas into re-hashes of the same crap we've been seeing since Lord of the Rings. I almost died laughing when I saw Elizabeth give her speech to the pirates towards the end.

heh...

I have to disagree there. Manos and Hobgoblins, though extremely terrible have heart. They are strangely watchable because somebody making them was deluded enough to believe the movies were somehow "good." Plus, that low budget badness generates a charm all its own.

The last installment of Pirates just felt like an exercise in committee thinking, where every other scene has a Happy Meal tie-in. And that's sad. It had production values and visual effects those folks making B-Films never dreamt of, which makes its empty insides all the more awful.

Long live Torgo!

(but if we're going down bad movie memory lane, Red Zone Cuba gets my vote. Now there is a soul-sucking vortex like no other!)

And if we're gonna go down Bad Movie Memory Lane and keep goin...

THE INCREDIBLY STRANGE CREATURES THAT STOPPED LIVING AND BECAME MIXED UP ZOMBIES

Cant agree oh Grumpiness.

Sure, its the least good of the triology but it was still damn entertaining.

Come on, no place for Doom?

FIGHTIN IN A WHIRLPOOL. FIGHTIN' IN A WHIRLPOOL. OH HEY, LET'S GET MARRIED IN A WHIRLPOOL. OH SHIT IS THAT A GIANT VOODOO SORCCERESS WHO'S APPARENTLY A VILLIAN WE'VE NEVER HEARD OF, AND DO IN FACT NOT CARE ABOUT? OH WHY JOLLY YES IT DOES SEEM SO. WHATS HER FUNCTION? WHATS HER PART IN THE PLOT? OH, SHE'S A WHIRLPOOL. CINEMA DOESN'T GET ANY MORE EPIC THAN THIS.

On a more serious note, I loved the first two Pirate movies. Whevener I watched the skeleton pirates in the first one I'd pretend the LeChuck theme tune was playing. :< It seems like most "trilogies" these days are made up on the spot, introducing a whole bunch of awesome-lookin' stuff in the second part and then messing up the whole thing in the third part cause they didn't actually think through the whole thing.

Also, Pirates 3 may be the worst movie of all time, but it's still better than Spider-man 3 :c

It´s and old topic, but well.... here it goes!

things that shouldn´t have reached theire 3rd:

PotC 3
Terminator 3
X-men 3
Spiderman 3
Lost: Season 3
Rchard the Third

and finally,

Curse of "Damn-cartoonish-boring-hatemurray-whatthefuckwheretheythinking-Guybrushflotingbumping car" monkey island.

Love you, anyway Ron.

Lestat

I agree that Pirates 3 was a bad movie but hasn't anyone seen the movie "Before Sunset" 2004! It's a sequel to the movie that came out in th 90's. It has Ethan Hawke and Julie Delpy walking around Paris talking (TALKING!). While watching the film I truly lost the will to live but regained it when the credits started to roll!

I actually found the third one better than the second. I don't really care that the plot got a bit confusing, I thought it was a thrilling and visually awesome ride nevertheless. The second one was merely a prologue to the third one.
