'POTC: At World's End' Discussion

[Jeri Lynn]

I just saw the movie today, I enjoyed it very much although I thought it was a tad bit too long...

I'm bummed that I did not stay through the credits so if someone would be kind enough to PM me what I missed that would be great!!

[nickcapp]

Saw it 8:00 PM last night.

Loved it. I thought it was smart and action packed.

Would anyone be kind enought to PM me what happened after the credits?? We didn't stay, it was getting late and I drank way to much soda!

[PirateLover]

I think I've PMed everyone asking about the ending. Anyone else who needs it or misses it, feel free to PM me.

We saw it tonight and I loved it. To be honest I was big in the the whole pirate thing and I saw the first 2 and thought they were good just not something I was really over the top into. My cousin/roommate however loves them so we went tonight, I was already actually look foward to it from the previews but I think this was the best one yet. I really really loved it.

[ImagiAsh]

Great movie! Loved the ride references (again!)!

[2Epcot]

We just got back tonight from seeing Pirates. I really enjoyed it, though I also think I liked part 2 a little better.

We made it tonight too! All I can say to everyone with no spoilers is I wish I would have rewatched the second movie before going

I did watch most of the second part before we went to see. We ran out of time, and didn't get to see the whole thing. It had been a while since I had watched Dead Man's Chest.

Definitely loved the homages to the ride.

Just a warning though, this movie is very violent. So were the others I guess, but this one seemed even more intense. There is no real blood or gore so to speak of, but there is a lot of death.

I also love when they put things in from the ride... I agree parts of the movie were violent. I guess it depends on the child, some parents may want to see it first, if they have young kids.

The movie seemed a little long to me as well, and that's not usually something I say. I enjoy long movies if they don't feel long. I had heard about the sequence after the credits so when they started rolling I told my wife we need to wait to the very end. There was about 20% of the audience that also waited in our theater.

[Cinderelley]

I really hated it. I won't say anything else or I would be giving away spoilers.

[Willowwind]

20 in our group and 20 LOVED IT!!

We did freak the manager out a bit because we were almost all dressed in pirate attire. It was great fun and I've never laughed so hard!

Great comedy, great drama, great action, great romance, great easter eggs for ride lovers, tied up the last one nicely.

AWESOME MOVIE!!

[Melanie]

The movie has now opened in wide release, so expect to be spoiled if you enter this thread!

It's less confusing in the long run to keep all the discussion on the same topic in one place.

[Aurora]

Tried to post spoilers in a separate thread but it wasn't allowed so I guess I'll be the first.

When we saw the movie we had a small emergency with one of our group so I think I missed the meaning of some things.

SPOILERS IN WHITE HERE:

1. Why did Chow Yun Fat's character think Elizabeth was Calypso?

2. Why in the world didn't Beckett fire on both sides? What was going on there?

3. Why was the crew so inspired by Elizabeth's Braveheart/Aragorn speech? (OK, that's not really a question, just had a hard time making that leap.)


Just to say I thought the movie overall was AWESOME, if just a little bogged down in details. And forget Johnny Depp. I am in love with Geoffrey Rush.

[MNNHFLTX]

I won't be going for a couple of weeks, unless I can get someone to join me during the week sometimes after it opens. I would rather see it without people being LOUD in the theater. Pet peeves, you know ...

That would be my preference too, Michael. Opening weekend crowds are so....enthusiastic.

[Christine]

I went and saw it again with DH last night (he didn't get to see it on Thursday with me) and enjoyed it thoroughly again. DH wasn't as impressed with it as I am, but hey, different strokes and all that...

And Michael, you mentioned something about avoiding this movie for opening weekend because of crowds and loud audiences. I can honestly say I was TERRIFIED that I was going to have a bad experience on Thursday night...the theater was chock full of teenagers, all texting, taking pictures, running back and forth to different groups, etc.

But when that movie started until it ended, you could have heard a pin drop!

I think this movie is active and interesting enough to keep even the loudest mouths hushed!

You may want to check it out!

Take that, multiply it by a hundered screaming 15 year old girls, and add a very disorganized theatre staff and that was my experience Thursday at midnight. It was terrible. After that I am staying far, far away from Harry Potter until at least a week after it opens. And even then I'm going in the morning!

Man, I hate that you had such a bad experience! I guess it's just a roll of the dice!

I remember seeing Nemo WELL after it had been released. There were only 3 other groups in the theater with us. However it was one of the worst experiences we've ever had! Screaming kids, cell phones, running up and down the aisles...

I guess you never know!

[2Epcot]

Our theater was a large one, and was full, but the audience was great. There were enthusiastic, but nobody was talking or making noise. I don't remember hearing any cell phones during the show. They caught all the theme park references, and inside jokes ... It was a great crowd.

[Jeff G]

Awsome! For a three hour movie it seemed like it just started and it was over. Lot's of action, drama and comedy. Sure there were cheesy parts but overall a movie I'm very glad I saw. I also loved he tie ins to the ride. My only complaint is I missed the end scene after the credits, my DD had to go to the bathroom with 30 minutes to go but made it to the end, once the credits started it was a sprint for her.



Oh well, now we have a reason to go see it again.

[LauraleeH]

I've seen it three times so far. I love it! I learn more about it every time I see it. I just don't understand one part...I've asked everyone why they think it happened, and no one has been able to figure it out yet.

[Earnhardt321]

7of us went to the show last night. We were there an hour and half early. We had our tickets pre bought but we all needed to sit together!! More fun that way. Well we were all excited before the show started. I have to say that this was the best crowd to watch a movie with. We all cheered when we saw Jack the first time and we all gasped and laughed in the same places. I don't think I have been in a theater were we clapped at the end but last night we DID! I loved the movie and selfishly am hoping for a 4th I just love Orlando Bloom and Johnny Depp! I think I am planing to go again Wed. This will for sure be a 5 time or more seeing it in the theater!!!!

I seem to be in the minority here, but I didn't like it. I felt like I was watching a ping-pong match. Captain Jack was a supporting character in this movie. I thought this was the Elizabeth Swann show!

That's how I felt at first, but it just gets better each time I see it.
