    Yes. The best ending to a trilogy in a long time.
    Name the last movie trilogy that ended.

    Edit: Not something that came out in the past three months.

    Spiderman 3 maybe

    I don't know if that really counts since the odds of there being a fourth one are kind of high

    I suppose I should throw a question mark on the end of that, but "I don't think you understand the statement" doesn't read as well as, "I don't think you understand the question."

    Oh wait, I got it:

    I don't think you quite understand what I am going for.

    Damn it no this movie was bad
    Oh hey, remember the Kracken, that sweet ultimate bad-ass monster? Yeah, we killed him off with a sentence.
    They fucking turned Jones from some evil force of the sea into a sniveling lap dog. Making him stand in the bucket of war was just terrible.
    Hey great idea lets spend half the fucking movie trying to get the Pirate Lords to unite for a grand battle, and then NOT HAVE THEM DO ANYTHING.

    RAGE

    I thought the movie was pretty damn fun. I'm just sad there was no skeleton-pirate vs. fish-pirate fight of some kind, even though it'd just be nasty and gimmicky.

    Also, fanfuckingtastic soundtrack as always.

    I liked the movie and all, but I don't think any scenes would be cut from a Pirates movie for being nonsensical.

    There's a specific right answer to this. I mean, there's only one right answer to this.

    He throws out three and then he posts a trilogy that had concluded this month, and then disqualifies his answer, not because it was too recent, but because there could be a sequel.

    It's just...I don't think he quite understood what I wanted.

    I suppose that's my fault.

    If they do make Pirates 4, which they will almost certainly do, it'll have to be after The Lone Ranger, which is what the rumors are saying the Pirates crew is working on next.


    Really I'm happy with either one.

    Well, only writing the merest trace of each melody and then letting 85 faceless lackeys actually orchestrate it sort of frees you up a bit.

    But the music really was very good, even if it is a bit silly to credit Zimmer with it.

    I didn't even catch that they killed the Kraken, so for half of the movie I was wondering where it went. After going to Wikipedia and finding out (and clearing up a few details I managed to miss somehow), I was really disappointed. It made Davy Jones in the second movie. Of course, I see where they were coming from. A giant squid that can sink boats in a matter of seconds is kinda sorta a liability.

    Also, I have two complaints: too much fanfare, and it didn't feel as playful as the others. Way too much "lawl serius"

    I liked when the crazy voodoo woman turned into her full goddess-self and became completely incomprehensible.

    Its like "hey, fuckers, its not like she wasn't hard enough to understand already."

    That said I rather enjoyed the film, much more than the second one, but this might be due to the fact that I wasn't suffering from the stomach flu when I saw this one. Halfway through the second Pirates I was getting queasy and after racing home I peed out of my butthole for a good half-hour.

    He's always been good.

    The Batman Begins soundtrack is still his best, IMO.

    Oh God yes I love the Batman Begins soundtrack.

    Actually, I'm listening to the Pirates 3 soundtrack right now. It is awesome. So far, "Up is Down" is my favorite stuff.

    I agree that this one had the best soundtrack of them all. The first one really kind of sucked, it "borrowed" way too many themes and melodies. Just a couple of "borrows" from the top of my head, the raid on the town has the vampire hunters theme from Bram Stoker's Dracula, the main PotC theme is from The Gladiator soundtrack but I guess Badelt got permission from his master. Oh and the sad theme from The Lion King was used a lot too but I think that was in Dead Man's Chest, oh would you look at that I just checked and Hans Zimmer did the Lion King score, lame.

    But great soundtracks all of them none the less.

    Not according to any source I've seen for this movie.

    Including its own credits.

    Yeah, Zimmer isn't really credited for the score on the first movie.

    The soundtrack itself says:

    Music Composed by Klaus Badelt

    If I could pick one man to symbolize piracy?


    Barbossa.

    closely followed by Davy Jones, I mean yeah the dude is a sympathetic character, but he's still a cruel almost heartless bastard. Just like most pirates.
