I stayed for the scene at the end of PotC2. It wasn't worth it, mostly because I knew that was going to happen when I saw the dog get left behind. As we were leaving, the kid behind me was talking about it to his dad, and I turned and said, "You know that means they're going to eat him," and the kid went whoa. My not!boyfriend told me I was evil, and I said like you didn't know that already. The kid thought it was cool, though.
I'm not going to decide if I liked Potc2 until I see PotC3. Kind of like how I withheld judgment of Matrix2 until the story was wrapped up in Matrix3, at which point I decided they were both crap. I hope that doesn't happen this time. In any case, nothing will kill my love for the first ones.
The interesting thing about that movie, based on the trailer, is that Scorsese cast two Boston actors on purpose, because even academy award-winning actors cannot reproduce the accent to save their lives. Jeepers.
Yeah, I really hope Nicholson is playing someone from away, because otherwise that's going to be uglier than Robin Williams in GOOD WILL HUNTING, I bet. Williams at least could get the "wickid hammahed" out without mangling it too much.
The irony for me is I always thought that DiCaprio and Damon looked so much alike that they needed to be cast as brothers (much as I love Jude Law in the movie, DiCaprio would have been more a plausible looks-kinda-like in RIPLEY for Damon to pass himself off as). Not quite up there with David Boreanaz/Josh Brolin/Craig Scheffer, but close.
The people I was with (who were driving) when I saw PotC2 wanted to leave when the credits started. Would someone mind posting (in whitefont) what happened in the bit after the credits?
Anne, it just showed that
the dog had become king of the cannibals.
It wasn't as good as the last movie's scene, but I liked it because I had been wondering what had happened to
the dog.
I'm with P-C on the
dog.
"You know that means they're going to eat him,"
Now, you see...I totally lalala'ed this to mean
the cannibals would assume that the dog has
already
been freed from his human body
and therefore, would be
uneatable.
Silly me and my naivete.
Warner Bros. confirmed Monday that Heath Ledger will be playing The Joker in The Dark Knight, the next installment of the rejuvenated Batman franchise.
I'm glad somebody's thinking of the slash writers out there.
Aside from Brokeback Mountain I haven't noticed any particular aura of slashiness around him. Now, if they'd wanted to cast Ewan McGregor in the role opposite Bale...
Awwww, why didn't they do that?
