River: The human body can be drained of blood in 8.6 seconds given adequate vacuuming systems. Mal: See, morbid and creepifying, I got no problem with, long as she does it quiet-like.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

It's the same one as upthread, if you've already watched it.

That connection didn't work for me -- so I didn't know!

Not chastening you -- it was just so people who had seen the upthread one didn't need to click again.

PotC: DMC looks worrisome. I don't want Jack Sparrow to end up like Gimli in LotR - as comic relief.

Wasn't he that in the first movie's highlights?

That trailer makes me so happy. I don't even know why. Well, I know why, but I was still surprised by the extent of my happiness.

And! It looks like they're still looking to the ride for inspiration. I love Elliot & Rossio.

I haven't been on that ride for nearing twenty years. And even then, not paying much attention -- what elements are there?

It's been a dozen years for me, so it is possible I'm imagining it. But it's one of the first few shots in the trailer, with a cabin in the background and lots of people holding candles (I think?). At one point in the ride you go through the neighboring restaurant, and from the boats it looks like that, because it's very dark and swamp-ish, and there are strings of lights along with the candles on the tables.

I dunno for sure, but I thought of it immediately. I should ask my brother, he'll remember it better.

Lurching from one disaster to the next.

Who do you believe? Yahoo movies claim Yun-Fat Chow is in POTC2 as "Cheung Po Tsai", while IMDB don't list him in that release but do have him in POTC3 as "Captain Sao Feng"

eta: POTC2 looks brilliant. Can't wait for its release.
