One of the main ingredients of this movie which is quite often showed is that the world has elements of the supernatural to it but no one wants to admit it. Scenery, intrigue, and mystique are captured perfectly in this movie without being too ridiculous or too grounded.

I love that even though the movie doesn't take itself too seriously, and has a lot of fun, and crazy set pieces, and choreography, it still actually has a genius script.

I still say that Disney should make a stand-alone movie where Star Lord, Captain Jack Sparrow, and Han Solo get dimensionally hijacked, and they need to work together to get back to their respective homes. Like "Into the Spiderverse", but across the different franchises.

You find out so much about the character in that whole scene without any words

The writers (Rossio and Elliott) rode the ride at Disneyland dozens of time, taking notes on every detail of the ride, to get ideas for details to roll into then movie. The entire "cursed gold" sprang from them noting the skeletons and chests of gold-- "what if they are connected?" Tremendous fun that holds up to dozens of viewings.

That 'bola' shot is actually called chain shot, used to take out masts, wheels, capstans and rigging. canisters of grapeshot were used to turn the cannon into a shotgun and take out enemy crew, while round shot was used primarily for firing at gun emplacements and to damage the hull itself. This would also create lethal splinters from the planking that would severely injure or kill the enemy as well. That nasty black stuff they were mopping around the brig decking was tar, used as a cheap water repellent on naval vessels at the time. Can't have your ship rotting away out from under you :P

This movie, based on a ride of all things, had no right being so amazing

Just an FYI, each movie has a end credit scene somewhat related to the next movie or just a fun scene to end on

Geoffrey Rush made it a point to be on the left side of the frame in damn near every scene, because people naturally scan from left to right. Therefore he'd be the first person you would see on screen. Smart actor, that Geoffrey Rush.

The first time he does it, it's at the wooden door at the beginning of the film to stop Jack from escaping. Yet the second time he does it, he throws it at the wooden trapdoor of the gallows, to save Jack's life.

You've mentioned Assassin's Creed. Fun fact the actor that played Mr Gibbs also played Connor's quartermaster for the navy mission AC3

"Crimson Pirate" with Burt Lancaster even more than those other two, actually.

23:24 That's pine-tar, also called 'pitch'. It is made from pine sap, which has been boiled down to reduce its water content. It was often used on ships to provide water-proofing, though unfortunately, it is also quite flammable. It is also the origin of the expressions "Black as pitch" and "Pitch-black."

Loading cannons with whatever random bits were on hand (nails, cutlery, etc.) was definitely a thing, and it was highly effective against crew who were above decks, but basically useless against the ship itself. It effectively acted like a massive shotgun firing shrapnel. You want to use cannon balls against the ship's hull (which will also send massive splinters flying below decks, killing or maiming anyone hit by the splinters), shot (which could be things like nails and cutlery) against the ship's sailors above decks, and chain shot (basically 2 half cannon balls connected by a chain that will end up spinning like bolas through the air) against the ship's rigging. Different types of ammunition for different targets.

The whole prison scene with the dog and some of the Tortuga background stuff came straight from the ride...best 'ride-to-movie' adaptation Disney has done.

The scene where the prisoners are trying to bait the dog into giving them the key to the cell is directly from the original Disneyland Ride, I have such fond memories of that ride because I went on it so much, I was too small to go on the big rides. The original ride started off you got into a boat car thing on a rail through water, you went through a little area and into a tunnel where over the entrance a Jolly Roger spoke to you about how dead men don't tell tails, you went down a roller coaster style ramp into a swamp area if I recall, it smelled like you were in a real swamp etc. there were fire flies and frogs croaking. You sat in this boat for a long time passing through different scenes of pirates carrying on like the aforementioned jail cell with the dog. It was amazing as a kid, I understand that since these movies they revamped the ride to be more like the movies and removed many of the sections of old.

23:30 wooden ships used to be swabbed with seawater. the water would make the wood expand and become more waterproof, and the salt in the water would keep the wood from rotting. i think 1-2 swabbings a day were required to keep the planks sufficiently waterlogged.

14:21 one of THE BEST reveals in cinematic history. "You best start believing in ghost stories, Miss Turner- you're in one!" Chills.

A lot of actors were doing huge movies around this time. Hugo Weaving was doing LOTR and The Matrix. Ian McKellen was doing LOTR and X-Men.

1999-03 was such an era of filmmaking. I remember being totally rabid for bonus features and commentaries and every scrap of behind-the-scenes info I could find on movies during those years, I probably watched the Pirates' "Lost Disc" a million times. Good times, haha. Btw, this came out a few months before Return of the King, but the LotR movies were all shot simultaneously so Orlando Bloom was already onto other projects by the time Fellowship was released in 2001.

23:22 they are waterproofing the ship by painting it with tar, which kind of slightly seeps into the wood and makes it expand, and partially solidifies/dries into something similar to asphalt, or just rubber-like thing that fills the remaining holes between the planks of the ship. But i thought it was done on the OUTSIDE, not the inside of the ship, but i'm not entirely sure.

The sword fight in the smithy is probably my favorite sword fight in all of film. And a masterclass on how to elevate a mundane fight scene to something incredible.

Finish the trilogy, and then definitely do Master and Commander: The Far Side of the World. It's amazing.

19:04 Yes, in fact it was pretty deadly. You hear Gibbs shout to load the cannons with "case shot and langrage." Canister or "case" shot consisted of a cylinder or case of iron or tin, with tops and bottoms of wood or iron. Langrage could be stones, nails, bolts, flints, or *bits of scrap* (chain links, nails, shards of glass, rocks or other similar objects) fired from the cannon. Regular cannonballs were meant to disable the other ship; break their masts, put holes in the sails, sever lines/cables, and -- if you needed simply to destroy the enemy rather than capture their ship -- put holes in the sides of the ship to sink it. Both case shot and langrage are anti-personnel shot, though. They aren't going to do any real damage to the ship, but they are going to spray a lot of shrapnel at people, wounding them and hopefully taking them out of the fight. It's only useful at a short range since irregular shaped objects won't fly as far as spherical shot, but if you were in danger of being boarded, it was helpful to fire some rounds of langrage and reduce the number of able-bodied pirates coming over your rails.

18:55 "Would that DO anything?" It would, if aimed specially for the main decks. It would blast high-speed fragments which would do considerable damage to crew-persons, like an anti-personnel fragmentaton grenade. Against hull & wood structures, it would only fling splinters around (again damaging crew), and lightly damage sails.

Fun fact, at the end of the movie when captain jack said bring me the horizon is what inspired the name for the band bring me the horizon.

Please watch the STAR TREK movies! 🖖

I’m with my father at his doctors appointment right now. He doesn’t know I’m now watching this right beside him, haha.

the Churchill thing was hysterical. Love the two of you. Keep up the good work!

When this movie came out no one cared about... until it came out, it was so good! People went to the theater and saw this movie because they had no other option, no one really cared about a pirate movie. But what a surprise! It was awesome!

These movies have so much charisma to them, which makes the film such a joy to watch. Really irritates me how Disney was so quick to sever ties with Johnny after the fake accusations from Amber Turd came about; despite nothing been proven at that point. I do truly hope Depp can overcome being blacklisted and make a good comeback.

Simone and George were SO gleeful, watching the entrance and sword fight performed by Depp's Jack Sparrow, might I recommend they watch Charlie Chaplin in the movies: The Gold Rush, City Lights and The Kid.

As below - always liked how they worked images from the ride into the movie - the ship bombarding the town, the jail dog with the keys, the skeletons, skeleton drinking wine, the pile of treasure, etc.

Fun fact, Barbossa is based off the actual Turkish corsair Barbossa that dominated the seas and caused issues for many country's navy's and trade routes. The Ottoman Empire hired the man to be their admiral. He ended up dying comfortably, retired in his own palace. It was said that he was "the greatest pirate that has ever lived, and one of the cleverest tacticians and strategists the Mediterranean ever bore on its waters" and that "his death was received by Christian Europe with a sigh of the greatest relief."

I'd say the first 3 are a fun watch. After that... not so much.

Johnny Depp is the heart and soul of this franchise, without him it will just be a simple boring pirate movie.

I will never get tired of your guys' thumbnails lol truly makes me laugh most times

I've read somewhere that when Pirates ran out of cannonballs they would use nails in the Cannons.

Honestly the first three are the best “trilogy” but 4 and 5 are still fun and worth a watch, absolutely!

Fun fact! The actress who plays the female pirate on Jack’s crew is Zoe Saldana, more recently seen as Gamora in the MCU.

3:53 ARRR! SAD BE THE HEART OF THE MAN WHO DARES NOT SALUTE DURING THAT GLORIOUS ARRIVAL! _salutes!_

Yes,the use of any metal object fired from a cannon was commonplace if you ran out of cannon shot the practice was called scattershot

Fun fact in the American Revolution War they resorted to gathering cutlery from peoples homes to load in cannons and yes... It does stuff lol.

You need to do What's Eating Gilbert Grape. That and Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas are my favorite Depp movies.

Only in a Disney film could they get away with pirates yelling ARRRRR. 🤣

When I saw this in the theater I was skeptical about a movie based on a Disney World ride, but I was very pleasantly surprised. Barbosa is my favorite character, as much fun as Jack Sparrow is, because Barbosa is just so well done. I feel like it is necessary to watch the first 3, because they tie up a whole story.

So the thing about corsets is that the infamous "chokes the wearer" was a very brief period in fashion history, and for most of their existence corsets have actually been quite easy to wear and move in. Contrary to popular belief, most people don't want to die for fashion.

LoL as soon as I heard the lazy town reference, I had to give this a like. "Do what you want cuz a pirate is free, you are a pirate!"

Geoffrey Rush had almost as much fun playing Barbossa as he did playing Casanova Frankenstein in Mystery Men.

Geoffrey Rush was also excellent in "Mystery Men". You should definitely add it to your list.

You guys got me actin up with that thumbnail

"and water and a sun? a moon?" - Simone. Actually those be ships that are on fire. There is a battle going on with pirates coming ashore from the water.

Hey, I live in Sarasota, FL and just got out of the hurricane and this was one of the first things I saw when we got cell service back and it's a huge relief after what has been an utterly disastrous few days, so I just wanna say thank you for this!

Greetings from Port Charlotte, Hurricane brother!

My favorite gag is the dog with the keys. "You can try forever, the dog is never going to move" is a reference to the ride the movie is based on where a bunch of animatronic pirates are trying to coax the dog with the keys over, eternally, because the dog hasn't moved in 45 years since the ride opened.

“We will NEVER…surrend-Arrr!” - Winston Churchill, notorious pirate.

Okay, so let us talk about sailing ships weapons. The cannon was standard, but it could be loaded with different ammo. 1.)Cannon Ball (no explanation needed) 2.)Chain Shot(two metal balls with a chain between them), designed to destroy masts. 3.)Grape Shot(essentially shovel anything with damage potential into the cannon/blunderbuss), designed to wreck sails, or massacre the crew.

This was very much like the Mummy from '99 - a good, solid action film that DIDN'T need any sequels.

That's how I feel, as well. I only really like this first one. I feel the same about The Matrix.

I'm the same way, George. Once you've seen enough movies, most things are on the nose lol

This movie revitalized the Adventure genre together with the Mummy a few years earlier, and resurrected the Pirate movie genre completely, it had been dead since decades with one or two attempts just sinking the genre further. I think Jeffrey Rush said in an interview explaining the movie's success with "Nobody MAKES movies like this anymore".

The pirate with the wooden eye was in game of thrones, too. He play the Warg that Jon Snow kills when he leaves Egrit to go back to the Wall.

Great movie. Jack Sparrow is such an iconic character and Johnny Depp is perfect for that role, nobody could have done better with that character Love Norrinton's peech at the end. It's not often a blockbuster movie makes you have positive feelings towards an antagonist.

The next two films are DEFINETLY worth the watch

I don't care WHAT anyone says: Johnny Depp IS Captain Jack Sparrow. No one can replace him as that character.

Dead man's chest was the best one. It starts going down hill during the 3rd movie

The first 3 movies are so much fun, definitely a good watch. Add Master and commander of the far side of the world and you got 3 more really good naval movie to react to!!

31:54 "Perhaps the real piracy are the friends we made along the way." Ah...Limewire.
