Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man’s Chest

Josh and I saw Pirates of the Caribbean Part Deux yesterday at the Edward’s Cinema in Valencia. We were going to see it at the Academy screening at 7 p.m. but someone wanted to see my car for sale after 6 p.m. so we went to a matinee instead.

Sidenote: Few things you realize at a screening at the public cinema (i’m not a theater snob), there are lots of kids, people laugh at unfunny parts, people talk, cell phones ring, there’s goo on the seats, the floor is even gooeier (sp?). Seeing movies at the Samuel Goldwyn Theater has been an awesome perk from my job, but also a curse. Public theaters are horrible. I’ve never felt this way before, but my coworkers talk of similar experiences.

The movie was a great cinematic experience, but it had no ending. A plot developed but never finished. The first Pirates movie ended but left room for a sequel, this was just an introduction to the next Pirates Part Trois. And Keira Knightly (circa 20) kissed Johnny Depp (circa 40)! Did anyone else catch this? And I’m talking about Johnny Depp being over 40. When did that happen? He still looks 30ish.
