Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest (2006)

[Sage Orion]

This will Blow another Summer out of the Water!!

Another Adventure Awaites Savvys!!

I hope you'll see this one after seeing the first!!

I wonder what will happen next.......

I can't wait for this one!! This will be another fun movie ride!!

What do you think will happen next??
Can you wait to see this film or can't you??

 

[Hypes]

I hear Johnny Depp ends up pushing daisies.

One thing I wonder, what are they going to do with Will Turned and Elizabeth Swann? Some obscure love-triangle? Kidnap her again?

I suppose they'll just go with the Oh look, I found a treasure map approach.

Not saying it won't be interesting, of course.

 

[Brian G Turner]

Only just borrowed the first - should be watching it on Saturday night.

 

[dwndrgn]

Oh it is definitely a fun one to watch! And yes I'll be seeing part two as soon as it comes out. Right now I'm anticipating watching the latest Harry Potter at the beginning of next month. If I had a cell phone I could have signed up for free passes to the screening on May 30, but with no cell, I couldn't call in and I was in my car at the time.

Anyway, I'll see just about anything Johnny Depp does. His Willy Wonka will be fun to see as well.

 

[Sage Orion]

I think someone will kidnap Elizabeth and a treasure map and will

be sailing out to find both on a big adventure!!

Well.....I think it might happen.

Anyhow....did you say Johnny Depp in Willy Wonka??

If he plays Willy....I don't think I'll see it.....besides the original

will always be better than the next!!

Watched it last night - it was mostly fun: Depp showed great character acting, but Bloom was a talking mannequin. Yet something about the film was disappointing. Maybe the fact it was so well recommended skewed my sense of expectation too much.

That seems to be the accepted opinion, though rabid Bloom fans might beg to differ.

Depp makes the film for me, he is fine actor and he had great character to play.

 

[Hypes]

Is he a in-character actor?

 

[Lacedaemonian]

A method actor? I don't think so.

 

[Lacedaemonian]

Talking about the Caribbean, I am going there in a weeks time for two weeks, staying in a five star hotel with seven a la carte resaurants..... A shame that the country is currently in crisis with floods claiming up to 500 lives. Apparently this crisis will have no effect on us fat rich westerners. I thank my rich white anglo saxon gods for protecting me at this time.

 

[Hypes]

A method actor? I don't think so.

Yes, that's what I was looking for.

It's not like it's in Europe, Peter, we don't care if they die.

 

[Brian G Turner]

Depp is simply great at playing character, rather than any particular character type. An extremely versatile and accomplished professional actor, who can play many different styles and personas.

 

[Hypes]

Yes, he certainly is. I was just curious is he was a method actor, like Daniel Day-Lewis.

Johnny Depp made this movie what it is. If he wasn't in it it wouldn't have been the block-buster it was. Of course, that's just my own opinion. It'll be interesting how he does the Willy Wonka character.

 

[Sirathiel]

It's strange really. I have a strong dislike for Johnny Depp as an actor, but in Pirates of the Carribbean I simply adored him. And I adored the film. To me, it was like a drogue. I was more or less high after the two times I saw it. And it wasn't the cola, nor the tacos, I'm sure.

As to a second part... I'm a bit doubtful about that. For me, the original film was great and rounded. It has a lot of closure at the end: Depp gets his Black Pearl, Turner gets Elizabeth, Norrington gets nothing (at least not the girl). I absolutely can't see what a second part might be about.

Wait and see,
wait and drink tea...

Johnny Depp most certainly is a method actor. The best examples of this are his roles in Blow and Donnie Brasco. The real Donnie Brasco is living in isolation and is wanted dead by many major mafia bosses. For Donnie Brasco, Depp met up wiith the real Donnie as well as mob connected men to better get into the role. When making Blow, he spent weeks visiting George Jung; the man he was set to play; in prison learning his mannerisms and voice. Upon being interviewed Jung stated that Johnny Depp "became me, it was like looking into a mirror". I can see no better praise for a method actor than that. I think Depp is one of the most underated actors in Hollywood, its almost as if his name has become so well known that his acting ability gets overlooked. In terms of great Hollywood method actors currently still making movies, only DeNiro stands above him in my eyes.

From what I've managed to read about him in interviews and seen in the movies, I think he's quite happy with that...Pirates 2 will be the first time in his career where he'll reprise a role, he never does sequels...And I can't wait, although I really have no idea what they could make it about, the first film was really well wrapped up...

I'm currently hunting down Johnny's movies to watch or watch again, but not having much success, Arizona Dream, for example, was never released in Croatia, because the director, Emir Kusturica, was insulted by some journalists years ago and refuses to allow his films to be shown here. I guess he thinks he's Stanley Cubrick...And the older movies are almost impossible to find as all our video rental stores sell off 'old stock' as soon as it's more than two years old...

Stupid, but there you have it...

I loved the first movie and really looking forward to this one. I dont think it's coming out though until next year

They're actually in process of filming both Pirates 2 and Pirates 3 at the same time. I don't know if they'll be a part of the same story, but this whole "series" will definitely have at least 3 movies. I loved Pirates and can't wait for the second.
