I'm not surprised. Even though I've seen terrible reviews, I can't wait to see it. Loved the first one.

I saw it last night....my wife loved it but for me it was your typical "part 2 of 3" movie. It basically sets up the third. Don't get me wrong there were some funny moments but a lot of the one liners that hit in the first seemed to miss in this one. It didn't do justice to the first....but hopefully a not so good second will allow part three to be on a par with the first.

The highlight of the entire movie was the preview for Talladega Nights which for some reason had me laughing more than it should.

Johnny Depp said he will do 7 films if he can. The good life in France is very expensive apparently: "Johnny said: "If they wanted me to do Pirates 7, I'd keep going. Captain Jack's a free spirit, like me. I love him."

Biggest opening weekend EVER. $132 million.

Topped the old record from Superman by almost $18 million.

I loved the sequel... opening 'morning' on the ultra screen. The ending made me go 'What?!?' so it basically set up for the 3rd.
I will definitely go see it again!

Keith Richards is going to play Johnny Depp's father in the 3rd one.

That's amazing - I didn't expect Pirates 2 to do so well! I guess after the other disappointing summer movies something had to do incredibly well! I can see Spider-Man 3 doing insanely well next year though!

The all-time record was actually set by Spider Man not superman.

I saw this movie on Friday. It was just as good at the last one, but definitely left things open for a sequel. I never view this franchise as a triology though. So it was kind odd to see it end like that. I think this will be biggest grossing movie of the summer and maybe the year.
