Pirates Of The Caribbean: At World's End: Review

Pirates of the Caribbean At World s End, Geoffrey Rush, Johnny Depp
starstarstarstar
Like its predecessor, PIRATES OF THE CARIBBEAN: DEAD MAN'S CHEST (2006), this second sequel to the surprise hit is the guest that wouldn't leave. Yes, it tosses off some witty gags. Yes, it's ever so good-looking. Yes, it's got a bag of tricks big enough to keep undemanding children entertained before dinner. But it's almost three hours long, and that's a lot of time to invest in what is, essentially, a theme-park attraction you can't ride. It begins where the last film le... read more

  • Has Blu-ray Finally Beat HD DVD for Good? | DVD News and Reviews | 1/9/2008
    HBO has joined the parade to Blu-ray after Warner Bros, its distributor, announced on Friday that they were dropping HD-DVD in May 2008. The Warner Bros announcement could be the event that ends the war between high-definition formats. HD-DVD has the exclusive support of Universal and Paramount/DreamWorks, while Blu-ray has Fox/MGM, Warner Bros, Disney, Sony and Lionsgate. Warner Bros, which holds about 20 percent of the market, was a huge win for the Blu-ray group, and leaves Blu-ray with roughly 75 percent of the HD market. The Warner Bros decision has influenced New Line, along with HBO, to make the switch to Blu-ray, but BBC Home Video is bucking the trend and "will evaluate the marketplace before committing to one format" (according to the studio); the studio has four high-definition releases planned for 2008, available on both formats, and has sold more copies of Planet Earth on HD-DVD. Recent notable Blu-ray releases include The Simpsons (Fox), Pirates of the Caribbean: At... read more
  • Short Cuts: Craig Ferguson, Norbit and More | Today's News: Our Take | 6/14/2007
    On Wednesday's The Late Late Show, Scotsman Craig Ferguson, fueled by his longing to become a U.S citizen, launched a campaign to become an honorary citizen of cities across America, starting with Ozark, Arkansas. Later today, info will be posted at CBS.com on how fans can support his campaign.... Norbit (somehow) topped the DVD sales and rental charts last week. The Messengers came in at No. 2.... Pirates of the Caribbean 3 has passed the $500 million mark globally, and in just 20 days.... Why is EJ8002438995@aol.com spamming my e-mailbox with "raves" about a certain new CBS drama series?

  • Pirates, He-Man Returns , Kill Bill and More | Ask FlickChick | 6/6/2007
    Questions about Pirates, the He-Man movie and what became of that extended DVD of Kill Bill.Send your movie questions to FlickChick.See Maitland McDonagh and Ken Fox review this week's new flicks in Movie Talk!Question: Is this the last Pirates of the Caribbean movie or are they going to make a fourth? -- RussellFlickChick: I'd say the odds are good that there will be a fourth Pirates of the Caribbean film, but it's not a sure thing. Assuming that you've seen Pirates of the Caribbean: At World's End – and why would you be asking otherwise? – you know it sets up the possibility that Captain Jack Sparrow (Johnny Depp) and who knows who else will embark on a quest for the fountain of youth. Involved parties have alluded vaguely to various possibilities in promotional interviews for World's End.Producer Jerry Bruckheimer told Australia's Herald Sun that "This is the end [of the current trilogy], but whether one of the characters or a couple of the characters continue on, it's... read more
  • Pirates, '70s Hottie P.J. Soles, Bruce Campbell and More Questions! | Ask FlickChick | 5/31/2007
    Questions about motion capture animation -- is it cheating? -- John Wayne, P.J. Soles and more. Send your movie questions to FlickChick.See Maitland McDonagh and Ken Fox review this week's new flicks in Movie Talk!Question: I've been reading a lot about the behind-the-scenes technology used to created the tentacle-faced Davy Jones in Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest and Pirates of the Caribbean: At World's End and keep seeing the term "motion capture." But none of the articles have explained how it's different from old-fashioned rotoscoping. Can you enlighten me, oh FlickChick? -- BradFlickChick: The difference is computers. Rotoscoping is a process invented by animation pioneer Max Fleischer -- creator of Betty Boop -- in 1914. It allowed artists to hand-draw over motion picture footage of real subjects frame-by-frame so that the instantly recognizable weight and flow of real human motion was maintained while the specifics of the image could be changed to the animator's... read more
  • This Week's B.O. Is Rated Arrrgh: Pirates' Booty Is Big, But... | Today's News: Our Take | 5/29/2007
    In the time it took the rest of us to roast a wienie and crack open a brew, Pirates of the Caribbean: At World's End plundered $142.1 million at the box office, giving it the record of best Memorial Day weekend debut ever. Still, the popcorn flick fell short of matching the biggest four-day opening numbers in history. That record was set less than a month earlier by Spider-Man 3, which raked in $151.1 million. Furthermore, the $115.1 million Friday-Sunday tally for World's End is significantly less than the $135.6 mil haul that Dead Man's Chest took in last summer. Rounding out the top five were Shrek the Third, with an additional $69.1 million, Spider-Man 3, with $18 million, "Bug III"... er, no, just Bug, the Ashley Judd thriller, with $4.2 million, and Waitress, with $4 million. read more
