Better idea: if it's nostalgia you want, just watch the original movie instead of the s*** sequels and remakes that are made to rape the corpse of the original movie for a quick profit. That just makes common sense to me and most of the other posters here. I mean what's going to bring back more childhood memories for you, the original movie or some bastardized piece of s*** that copies and pastes from the original movie? I rest my case.
The Four Horsemen of the Moviepocalypse: uncalled for sequels/remakes/reboots, 3-D surcharges, untalented "celebrities", and anything with Michael Bay's name attached to it.

Of course, "Black Pearl" was a very entertaining and original movie ... so of course Hollywood had to go and ruin it with two sequels that sucked and were filled with references from the first movie.

Honestly, I really liked the movie since I am a very big fan of POTC! Even if it was a little bit longer that it should have been, it really had nice turn overs that kept my eyes into the big screen . I think the movie had good performances (i loved Johnny Depp and Geoffrey Rush), good sound mixing and very interesting costumes. I really enjoyed it.
As far as for Bloom's performance, he didn't shine but he didn't suck either!

I remember Bloom's performance, and it wasn't a match for the others, except for Knightley.  Knightley's performance was unconvincing in the third one.

I don't feel Bloom deserve the nomination, but he got it, and Knightley didn't, so there you go.

Quite frankly, I disliked the first Pirates movie and hated, hated, hated, hated Johnny Depp's performance. The wife liked it, though, so I got dragged to the next two, and was surprisingly entertained by the second. I guess when expectations are lowered to zero, the minor good points of the sequel shone through a bit more. The third one was a bit of a mess, looking like it had maybe two movies worth of plot and double-dealing going on and other things like "Oh, by the way, she's a goddess or something."

That all said, I don't think Bloom deserve this award because I can't even remember his performance, so i couldn't say if it was good or bad.

Pirates 3 is gonna lose to Transformers.  Both movies may be weak if not bad, but the special effects in Transformers were above and beyond anything.

I'm glad this movie is at least being debated.  Although, yes, it was not as bad as Good Luck Chuck, Bratz or Awake, or for that matter, I Know Who Killed Me, Daddy Day Camp, Are We Done Yet?, Revolver or Epic Movie, there were severe problems with this movie that seem to characterize all the major blockbuster sequels this year.  Of particular concern to me was the mishmash that passed for a script, producing a plot you'd be hard-pressed to describe in one short sentence, and Keira Knightley's acting, which kept me saying "yeah, right" every time I saw her on the screen.  And this doesn't even begin to address "sequel-itis", the problem that very few sequels match the superiority of the originals. 

Yes, I've read that Elliott and Rosso were writing the 3rd installment as it was being filmed, and in this case, the movie shows that rushed attempt.  Saving this movie was how many things were done well.  The directing was superb, Verbinski taking what could have been as bad as any of the movies listed above and, one scene at a time, wringing out the best performances with the best filming and the best special effects he could get.  And most of the other actors gave superb performances, such as Nighy, Depp, Rush, Davenport and Chow.

But I don't think, just because other movies are worse than any particular movie, that we shouldn't at least go over the problems of that particular movie.    If anything, it keeps us on our toes.

If they shoot Pirates 4, I feel it will go to the big screen before it goes to DVD.

I wonder why this film is put in the same forums as Bratz and Awake?

I just found this film confusing and a little underwhelming, but it was necessary to end the story started by Pirates 2.

Speaking about a 3rd Pirates Sequel, it'll probably be straight to DVD (like any unnecessary Disney sequels).
Seltzerberg is back?

OH MY GOOOOOOOOOOD!!!!!!!

Incidentally, If moviewizguy really believes that this series was ever intended to be a trilogy, I'd be happy to provide a lengthy list of contradictions between the first film and the other two that perhaps he can explain for us. In fact, there were some puzzling contradictions between the second and third films that would be difficult enough to explain, especially since they were made concurrently.

Moviewizguy, does two movie sequels being realeased four years apart ring a bell to you?

The entire cast EPIC MOVIE

Paul Rae DADDY DAY CAMP

Lochlyn Munro DADDY DAY CAMP

Patrick Warburton UNDERDOG
