writers corner:why i hate the pirate movies

First and foremost , i don't really hate the first movie "the curse of the black pearl. That film was exceptionally good. it had crazy characters,fun look and feel to the movie, beautiful cgi effects(love undead pirates) and a half decent story.Sure the movie is actually very very long but i find it very bearable to watch.but.......

Hollywood loves to cash in and start franchises.(cuz pirates can sell allot of happy meals)then comes dead mans chest. at first i was with it.All the kooky characters are back except this time they replace the cgi villains with....another set of cgi villains.now instead of zombie pirates ,now you have fish pirates? but this is what makes me mad the most and then takes away all my enjoyment that i had with the first one. once one character back stabs one character , it creates a endless cycle of everyone backstabbing everyone. this mostly occurs at thee end of the film when swan sends captain jack sparrow to his death,and that's not all, the leader of the villains in the first film is now brought back to life now to help the supposed "heroes" for a conflict that doesn't resolve at the end of the film.



But now........the movie sells even more happy meals to now make a third film,and a pirates movie is not a pirates movie unless you have captain jack sparrow. so you know Wat they do, they bring him back to life so no one bitches and moans abt there favorite character dying.(plus it sells more happy meals that way)and when i was talking about back stabbing before (shit) this sequel takes it and makes it the whole movie. the whole time watching that flick i was like" OK OK who is fucking who and why huh Que?" all the constant changing of the motives really really turned me off and makes me really never want to see those movies ever again(despite being very popular). i could care less really if they ever make another pirate movie ever again,hell i rather see another crappy batman movie(b and r not the dark knight) then to see midgets and undead monkeys ever again.
go watch a better pirate movie like the Muppet's treasure island(just kidding).
