So, the kids and I went to see Pirates 3 last night...
...and came to the conclusion, while discussing it on the way home, that they should have let us write the story/script. Or at least some fans. We would have done a better job.
Johnny Depp, of course, was devine. And I found myself wanting them to hurry up and get to his character, so the first bit of the film was a bit boring. And then we got a whole shipfull of him! His flirting with the goat had me thinking of Aberforth, and I think "Nobody move, I've dropped me brain" should be my new catchphrase as, so often of late, I have been feeling brainless. ;~P
But... Norrington - WTF? The ending - WTF? Also, I loved the witchy woman in the last one (she was probably my favourite character), but did they have to make her a goddess? *disappointed sigh*
With Will being 'undead' so to speak, I guess this will mean he never ages, yes? So who will he have to come back to after a few decades? What a downer. O.o Romantic in that tragic sense, but not my cup of tea.
And another thing - didn't Elizabeth's father die cos he stabbed Davey Jones heart and had to give his own? Or did I understand that all wrong? And if so, why didn't he become Captain over Jones? *didn't really follow that part but really enjoyed the visuals* :~)
Also they ran the HP trailer before it, but it was the first trailer we saw a while ago - the really short one. :~( But it was nice seeing it on the big screen. :~)

I have read that the script wasn't finished when they began filming. I suppose the probably really did forget about him until the actor walked by or something.

That's interesting to hear. I've heard of that happening on other movies. I don't know, maybe it's common, but I can't believe it could be good for the story.

From what I'm hearing, it doesn't sound like it was too terribly good for the story.
