Brendan Fraser? Not that I've seen the original. But he can swashbuckle, and act too, though he rarely seems to be called upon to do so.
Marco: Do we look reasonable to you? Mal: Well. Looks can be deceiving. Jayne: Not as deceiving as a low down dirty... deceiver.

Buffista Movies 6: lies and videotape
A place to talk about movies--old and new, good and bad, high art and high cheese. It's the place to place your kittens on the award winners, gossip about upcoming fims and discuss DVD releases and extras. Spoiler policy: White font all plot-related discussion until a movie's been in wide release two weeks, and keep the major HSQ in white font until two weeks after the video/DVD release.

Wasn't there an awful pirate movie with Geena Davis in the captain's chair?

Yeah, it kind of damaged her and her husband's career.

That might explain the lack of decent feminist pirate movies. Although Kathy Acker's collaboration with the Mekons, Pussy, King of The Pirates is crying out for a feature-length movie.

Pussy, King of The Pirates is crying out for a feature-length movie.
I'll get right on that, as soon as I finish this Wonder Woman script.

Wasn't there an awful pirate movie with Geena Davis in the captain's chair?
Yeah, it was awful. But it had a great opening pun. Watch through the pun, and if you want a few seconds past as she strolls off with a monkey on her shoulder. Don't be sucked into watching more, cause that will time in your life you will never get back. (Youtube link) [link]
