Pirates!

[basildestiny]

Not being a fan of the first one. Not finding Jack Sparrow in the least bit heroic at all in the first one.
I went to see the second. I wanted to see it on opening week, but I wasn't feeling that great last week and ended up staying home all week. Stupid stomach cramps.
But I loved this one! Even the week ending that left me begging for more of the Captain. I really enjoyed time spent with the Captain. I wanted him to talk more. It was intoxicating. I'm not attracted to Jack Sparrow. He's not that kind of guy I want in any way. He's just very entertaining. Plus... he's not real when I see him. Were he to be a real person, I don't think I'd spend much time with him at all. I'd probably be dead. Or worse yet, soulless.

I'd even heard that it was too long. That it went on and on. No no! I don't think the people who said that saw the first movie. It was full of too many cannonballs fight scenes with the back and forth of the volley of the fire. Totally boring. No. This had Krakken and Davy Jones (though no locker oddly), voodoo shaman or whatever the female verson is. A witch doctress? A witch nurse? The movie was perfect for something that bears the name of a famous ride. For this movie was much more like a ride. If only it didn't have to end after 2 and 1/2 hours.

Still the sequel should be out soon.

And I didn't think the rum joke got old at all. You're old. So QQ more.
