Drink up, me hearties, YO HO!

Yeay!!!! Guess what I just came back from? That's right!!! Pirates of the Caribbean: At World's End. Arrrrgh! And what an awesomely fantastic whirlwind it be. All the ends to the second movie are tied up, with some interesting surprises. I don't want to give away any of the secrets, so I won't discuss the plot, but it was bigger, wilder and more of my favorite, the ever charming Capt. Jack's craziness. The $300 million was well spent...it was some of the most incredible special effects ever. The first movie still remains my favorite, but the third was heart-pounding, action-packed, musically fantastic, visually striking, Jack-packed ;) and full of twists and double crosses. It was great to finally get the end of the story. Or is the end? Disney rumors abound that there could be a 4th movie. With the success of the franchise so far, and the fact that Johnny Depp wouldn't mind signing on for another, I think Disney might not call it quits with the hat trick. I was so excited for the third movie that I spent today watching commentary and deleted scenes from the first movie, and the entirety of the second movie. I know I'd go see more if 4 and 5 were in the future. Between the antics of Capt. Jack and the music that gets me so wound up, I don't care what the story would be...just give me more! After all, I just spent 20 minutes swordfighting Mark throughout the apartment with soundtracks blaring in both the livingroom and kitchen, for crying out loud! I think I have a problem. Perhaps I should ship out, mateys. Tis time for me to rest my bones after all this adventure, but I put the question to ye: Are ya ready to make sail, and prepare for the final battle? Go see the next chapter.

Was this swordfighting around 11pm-ish? We thought it sounded a bit like swashbuckling!
