Have you actually seen the movies?

I've realised that a lot of users of POTCO online haven't actually seen any of the POTC movies. I know I haven't, I went to see the second movie in the cinema but ended up falling asleep; so out of interest, have you seen any of the films?

Me: I've seen the second movie only - even then, I only saw 1/4 of it!

Yeah I have, that's the reason I started playing POTCO. All three, the best movies ever made. I have met a lot of people on POTCO who haven't seen the movies, kinda strange....
You should start watching them!

I loved the movies, if I were to be critical, there is always room for improvement, but I thoroughly enjoyed them all.

I was a fan long before the movies, i've ridden the Pirates of the Carribean ride at Disneyland 100's of times having grown up in the southern California area (and years before the first shovel ful of dirt was taken for Disneyworld).

The movies (at least the first one) took several ideas from the original ride itself.

I'm with Samuel here. Fan long before the movies even came out, the ride was one of my Fav at Disneyland (Haunted Mansion the other one). I cant even say how many times Ive watched all 3 of the movies, cause I lost count. Definitely worth watching especially if you enjoy the game.

I loved the movies. Even though I just saw the last 2 the other night haha! It's really cool how the first movie took stuff from the ride too. I grew up riding that thing all the time! The thing that caught me with the first one is the whistling they did trying to get the dog to bring the keys. I totally remembered that right away from the ride, and took me back to my childhood. That was very cool.

I find that a bit odd. Only reason I even started playing the game was because of the movies. Guess a few people just moved over from the other Disney games not knowing about the movies, or wanted to see them. Or they just like pirate games. Who knows.

I have seen all three movies and by far the first and third are the best. You could almost eliminate the filler second movie and lose no content except Maybe why Barbossa is alive in the third movie.

Well....this is shocking. lol
I've seen all movies when they came out in theaters. And I own all on DVD.
This past weekend, I actually sat down and watched all 3, back-to-back.
Yea, I have a slight addiction to these movies, they are some of the best disney magic ever made!

I finally saw the third movie the other day.

The first one was great. Loved it.

The second one was good, but as it ended in a cliffhanger, it left me a little unsatisfied.

I shall now buck the trend of this thread.

The third? What a stinker. That's two hours of my life I'll never get back.

There was a recent "Simpsons" episode where Bart drives a combine harvester. He runs over some hay, and it bundle it up into bales. He runs over other things, and it bundles them up into nice neat chunks.

Then he runs over a manure pile, and it spits out "Pirates of the Caribbean 3" DVDs.

Bad plot. Bad story. Deus ex machina (literally). Retcons.

Just bad.

Lord of the Rings,Star Wars, and Indiana Jones were better at least on there the bad guys were bad and the good guys were good.On pirates you have the good guys in real life as bad and the bad guys in real life as good.
But POTC are still good movies just far from the best.
