Pirates Trivia question: What is the name of the original captain of the Black Pearl?

Captain Barbossa played by Geoffrey Rush. I love him, he's so awesome.

It is the school holidays here, so my daughter and her friend went and saw it, they both loved it, said it was as good as the first one, I will have to wait until my wedding anniversary on the 4th of August to see it, but i hope it is worth the wait, i have freebie passes then too, so will be a cheap and nice evening out.

I just came home from it 15 minutes ago! I thought it was pretty good, but I was confused and needed explaining on some parts. I dont really like how it ended, or should I say stopped? I also can not wait to see the third one so it can continue where it left off.

We are probably going to watch it tommorow now that the week has started and the theater has hopefully calmed down a bit. It seems really good, and since I loved the first one, I think I'll like this one too.

I read that on opening day it grossed $55 million beating the old record of $50 million earned by Star Wars Episode 3, setting a new record. Also it beat Spider-Man's old three day record of $115 million, setting it at a high $132 million. Hope I didn't make that too confusing.

I saw it today and I really enjoyed it. Of course I loved the first one too. We arrived late though so I just have a question I'm hoping somebody can clear up for me. Was Jack in a coffin (floating) at the beginning or something else? How did he get there? I came in right as the bird landed on top and he came out I was a bit confused. I also missed how he got on the boat (was looking for my parents at the time they ended up in the wrong theater lol) Thanks.

As cavylove said, I'll be off with her and our other friend Katherine to see it on Friday! It'll be great

It showed the Black Pearl anchored just off shore of the island. Some men were tossing coffins into the sea and after they drifted out aways, Jack shot a hole in the coffin top, used the bone leg of the other coffin occupant as an oar and rowed to the Black Pearl.

His men helped him onboard and began eagerly asking him if he found what he was looking for. It was implied that he snuck into the prison, but we never are told how... only the why. He went in for the drawing of the key.


Andy and I saw it last night and we really enjoyed it! It was a bit slow at some points but had a lot of twists and turns. We're eagerly awaiting the 3rd installment!

Did anyone else stay in the theater till the end of the credits?

Did anyone else stay in the theater till the end of the credits?

I did! I remembered at the end of the first one that it showed that bit with the monkey, so, I stuck around. Got a giggle out of it, so, I'm glad I did!

Darn! No, we didn't! They're starting to do a lot more of that, aren't they?

Saw it yesterday and I loved it! Johnny Depp is so sexy but I've always loved men in makeup..LOL. Orlando has a body to die for. In the scene where they give him five lashes they ripped the shirt off him exposing his back and you could hear the women in the audience gasp!!

NOTE!!!!!! Wait till after the credits for a fun treat!!!
