Pirates Of The Carribean
------------------------
Don't you just love it when you're walking through you're local HMV and find a gem of a DVD in their half price sale? You know what I mean, a film like Gattaca or Top Gun. Well Pirates Of The Caribbean may not be as innovative as Gattaca or emotional as Top Gun but this is definitely a modern day masterpiece that you definitely wont regret paying full price for.
By the director of the popular horror film, The Ring, Gore Verbinski has delivered a spectacular film with a cast that some directors can only dream of. The up and coming A-List elf Orlando Bloom delivers a surprisingly good performance as the dashing young Will Turner, the dazzling Keira Knightley who plays the perfect love interest and Cap'n Jack Sparrow himself, Johnny Depp.
Mr. Depp delivers a stunning performance after a fair few years out off the movie making game in his come back film, and what a come back it is. His fabulously camp performance as the comical yet skilled pirate of the seven seas is one that simply does not disappoint. His cheeky little comments provide well-needed light relief in this otherwise generic pirate movie.
"Welcome to the Caribbean love!" Says the apathetic scally wag in an attempt to get Keira to loosen up and drink some Rum. Just like a real pirate. It's grade A material I'll tell you that.
Now, I'm not saying it wouldn't be a good film without him only that without Cap'n Jack this film would have far too much doom and gloom for your average viewer, which, in itself can be comical.
The plot itself is a solid one typical of the genre and as you would have guessed from the 12 certificate it's a bit darker than usual for a Disney film. The CG for example allows us to see the skeleton remains of a crew of the damned. Probably not a good idea to play the lenient parent with this one and show it to your kids. I'm 16 and still jumped out of my seat the first time I saw one of them!
However this is not about me looking like a jumping fool in the cinema. This is a list of my opinions; you may not like them; you may not agree with them but don't argue! "Do you think it wise to cross blades with a pirate” I don’t! So go and buy a copy from the shops or plunder your mates house and take his for a stunning adventure on the high seas.
If enough people were telling me I was a moron, I'd have to believe there was at least SOME truth in it.

Wishing someone would contract *CANCER* FFS!?!?!?!?!
Oh and I think you are a pretentious child too for the record. Run along now.

I don't know how. I do not think I need to grow up, stop being annoying and an idiot but that's because I don't think i am being any of those things. I don't think I've done anything to any of you currently having a go at me but you're are telling me to stop doing things that you can't even remember me doing. Is that not being slightly harsh?:(

What?!? I am not trying to be mature. Some of the greatest men and women in history wish death upon their enemies. It does not mean they are being immature just that they hate their enemies to that degree. In the same way I despise Blank.
Grow up, stop being annoying and, low and behold, people will stop hating you. It really is that simple.

I respect Blank and his choices to hate me beyond all belief but I do not like them and therefore loathe him.
> I hope you get cancer.
I refer you back to your own post: -
"You can go through life waiting for people to try and earn your respect but frankly in my experience respect should be given to everyone you meet. They are no better or worse than you and therefore should be treated with the same dignity and respect as you would like to be treated."
You're hardly doing that eh?
> I hope you get cancer.
Oh, how mature. I hope you get piles.
Stop acting like a six year old and grow up.
