Looks equal to that of the first. A must see in the theater.

AMEN!
I'm not very old, and I can't even accept it. By the time you pay for the ticket and snacks you're over the price of the DVD. Plus my system sounds better, and I can pause for a break if needed.HT

I hear ya! Yet I still fold sometimes and go. A friend of mine always says "whatever the market will bear". Ya know, if people would somehow "ban(d)" together and just REFUSE to spend that much at the concessions stand, things WOULD change.Mains: polkaudio RTi70's (bi-wired)

Exactly.
I like my system much more than paying the hollywood machine at the theater.
I go to the theater maybe once or twice a year but I watch mor movies than that almost every week.
I will be buying this one blindly, I like Depp's acting.Skynut

Thanks for looking -
Just read an early screening review. The reviewer likened it to Empire Strikes Back as it just clicks on all levels and is amazing. Said Depp expands on Jack Sparrow and hits it big again. Apparently the 3rd and final comes out next summer to end the trilogy.
Superman Returns and Pirates....I may just have to hit the theater twice this summer! Actually, Xmen disappointed me, so I'm forgetting that one.No excuses! -
Interesting review on Pirates. I'm looking forward to it. Superman, pass, that looks terrible!If...

I am not a huge movie guy but I have been really looking forward to this one. Captain Jack Sparrow has to be my favourite character of any movie I have ever seen. The perfect balance of coolness and wackiness, without being over the top super heroish. Very believable.

Awesome movie!! The lead chick looks a lot hotter this time around. The costumes for Davy Jone's crew are good.
Looks like we got a replacement for the 'underwater nuke', via the summoning device on DJ's ship. -

I haven't seen it yet, but if it's even 1/2 as entertaining as the first I'll be satisfied. Johnny Depp is one of my favorite male actors and it was nice to see him in a carefree role which he nailed in the first one. When I think of movies that have nothing more than pure entertainment value, Pirate of the Carribean always comes to mind.
H9"Appreciation of audio is a completely subjective human experience. Measurements can provide a measure of insight, but are no substitute for human judgment. Why are we looking to reduce a subjective experience to objective criteria anyway? The subtleties of music and audio reproduction are for those who appreciate it. Differentiation by numbers is for those who do not".--Nelson Pass Pass Labs XA25 | EE Avant Pre | EE Mini Max Supreme DAC | MIT Shotgun S1 | Pangea AC14SE MKII | Legend L600 | BlueSound Node 3 - Tubes add soul! -

This is EASILLY the best movie Ive seen this year...(or in a while for that matter)....

PS:
I was kind of leary of Squid Face Davey Jones... but the sinister feel to the guy was astouding... he made you think he was evil. Plain and simple. Excellent acting all the way around.- Not Tom ::::::: Any system can play Diana Krall. Only the best can play Limp Bizkit. -
