I saw the movie of the year tonight.... Pirates Of the Carribean.
1st Rule when dealing with movies; if it's made by Disney, it's PROBABLY good. Not always, there are exceptions, but generally if it's a Disney Movie, it's probably gonna be good.
I wasn't expecting much, just some flashy graphics. I was wrong. Johnny Depp gave an amazing performance as Jack Sparrow, the famous pirate.
I'm telling you, this movie is a classic. It's up there with things like Treasure Island, etc. etc. Very, Very well written, action packed, hilarious, great plot, legendary story, very well done.

ok, no... def not, its not even the movie of the month
-
...but yet, you never saw it. Shut your mouth.
-
This movie is on my top 3 movies of the year list definetely...right now those consist of
1.2 fast 2 furious
2.pirates of the carribean
3.....reserved for bad boys II
-
2 fast 2 furious shouldn't even be listed for movie of the year... why would you see that? Go see some good movies like finding nemo or terminator 3

Johnny Depp was awesome in it. He should at least get a nomination, he OWNED that part. Every line he had was just brilliant, whoever wrote it was great.
For instance, basically he plays a pirate, who's flamboyant and crazy. He reels a little bit when he walks, and uses hand gestures to accentuate what he says. He acts like a drunk, basically.
Anyways, there's this one scene, where the girl falls in the water, off a cliff. He's standing there with 2 guards who are about to arrest him, and she falls in the water behind them. He turns around, and just kind of looks at the water with his head to the side; then turns his neck back around and looks at the guard and says "Are you going to be saving her?" (totally expecting the guy to say yes)... the guard goes "No" and Johnny Depp goes "Oh" then turns back around and looks at the water again, then starts taking his stuff off. It's hilarious, every little line he hams up 200%.
It's written VERY intelligently, there's a big scene where the girl tells the captain of the ship she doesn't believe in ghosts, then he goes off telling her the legend of the ship, and all this crap, and chases her around the boat for 5 minutes, and finally she stops, he finishes the story, and then walks into the moonlight where it shows him to be a skeleton, and goes "So ye best be believing in ghost stories, poppet" or something like that, it's very very well written.

I hardly ever go to the cinema, its a bastard. They built a new cinema quite near me and its been there for a few yrars now but still there is no bus route there. If I wanna go I either have to walk, which is a mission or get the train which is also a mission. If there was a bus route I wud be there all the time. Shit sucks.
I think I am gunna watch spiderman tonight.

i go to the movies a lot...but its expensive as shit...8.00-8.25 for a movie after 6:00 pm...thats expensive shit...whoever said taking a date to a movie is cheap LIED...anywayz...

im guessing by that quote you didnt even bother to see it...well first off...i loved the first one...i like action movies that arent exactly sci-fi (ie terminator is not a real appealing movie to me)...and im not a big fan of cartoon movies like finding nemo. i love shit like fast & the furious...so i had to see the 2nd one...i've seen it twice and i love it more each time...so if u have seen it i dont know what your bitching about cuz it was a great movie and most ppl do agree...and if you havent seen it maybe you should before you judge it ::)

holy fuck...thats some expensive shit...ok like i was saying about dates and movies being expensive...lets think about this...we'll use the 8.00...
2 tickets @ 8 bucks a piece = 16.00
Popcorn = 4-5 bucks
drink (s) 1= 3.50
2= 7.00
candy = 2-4 bucks
add all this up and it = 33-35.00 per movie...thats an expensive 2 hours! plus generally you got dinner to pay for before or afterwards...shit dating is getting expensive...i wish it was 4-5 bucks all day like it is before 6:00...but they're bitches and they think they need more money >:(
-
its only July homie...the summer movies are wack as fuck anyway....its rare when a good one comes out....
but anyway.....I have a feeling KILL BILL will be the best movie of the year. Best time for movies of this year is Sept.-November
-
im thinkin december...new lord of the rings will be out ;D
-
im thinkin december...new lord of the rings will be out ;D
fine fine fine..Decemer too....oh yea why dont you buy candy from the store and then put it in your pocket to eat inside?
-
the year is not even close to being over, t3 is def better than the pirate shit, so will bad boys, terentinos KILL BILL, will be the best movie of the year, and the lord of the rings, your gay pirate movie might be like in the top 10, and 2fast isnt in there...

i do if i go with friends...but if im on a date i always feel like it would be corny or cheap to do that so i never do...i dont buy candy at the movies that much anymore anyway...im not a big candy person...if i have big enough pockets i will put a bottle of water or pop and hide it though...cuz their drinks are expensive..and i love root beer and the theater closest to me doesnt sell root beer ::)

LOL, you haven't even seen it, bitch! Kill Bill will be good, I can't wait to see that. T3 was great, Lord of the Rings will be good, but I still loved Pirates of the Carribean.

But it HAS Johnny Depp's character. LOL.
That's likesaying "Without Arnold in the terminator, it'd be SHIT!"
Dumbass, Johnny Depp's the whole purpose of the movie.
