filmlover Posted March 29, 2017 Share Posted March 29, 2017 I'm glad to hear that this new Pirates of the Caribbean is at least better than the last one (On Stranger Tides). Then again, so is clipping @CJohn's toenails. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If that is the best Frosty can come up with It seems like it is decent but not the huge game changer for the franchise that it was touted as being (best since the first one or better than OST is like clearing the bare minimum hurdle) Who was touting this as a game changer?

So better than those would be a good thing. Also I was expecting full reviews to be embargoed since we're still two months ahead Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

narniadis Posted March 29, 2017 Share Posted March 29, 2017 I am at least encouraged by the Pirates reports - I enjoyed the last one when it came out but that was mainly as others have noted that it cut down on the bloat of the previous two films but over the last 6 years even with a rewatch I can't remember much about it.

filmlover Posted March 29, 2017 Share Posted March 29, 2017 Yeah, however much Pirates makes will depend on how much interest is left in the property six years after the last one. Disney saw another Johnny Depp sequel arrive the same amount of time after the previous one last year to astonishingly dismal numbers (though it's very unlikely Pirates goes that low), and audiences have been flat-out rejecting unnecessary/unwanted sequels left and right in general the past two years. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ballooning budgets though will likely make this the last one Yeah, the budget is what would likely kill this if it doesn't draw up enough interest. I can pretty much look at each little bits perceived as return-to-form elements and see them as reasons why people *may* not be interested in the new movie because of them. Call it the Curse of the Cynic. Quite frankly, it would *need* to be a game-changer to draw up enough interest. I dunno if it's enough to *just* go back to its roots. See Star Trek Beyond.

franfar Posted March 29, 2017 Share Posted March 29, 2017 POTC5 is starring a washed up actor in a genre (swashbuckler) that hasn't really done gangbusters for the past few decades. With the high budgets, this should be the final film. It'll be a nice sendoff Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coming after a horrible film in franchise gives you these kind of reactions yes. You can only go up from there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
