yes its the biggest opening in movie history, which may make you wary, but damn if it wasnt really stinkin good. And it had Liar's Dice (nod to thrawn)
However its kinda 2-partish like matrix 2 and 3. Unlike those though, this doesnt suck on ice.
I recommend watching it.

I liked it, although the beginning seemed a bit choppy to me. I wasn't ready for the hanging ending though. So frustrating! But yeah, it was great.
I heard they've already shot the 3rd one and that it'll come out in December. Anybody wanna verify this?

Please put a spoiler warning in the title if you're going to discuss the plot.

no spoilers here! though i did hear that theyre waiting a while to put out number 3 because keith richards (of the stones, sweetest rock band ever stones>beatles) didnt film his part yet due to his tree accident. depp modeled sparrow after richards, according to my movie magazine loving gf.
and its not really a cliffhanger. just a kind of "to be continued"
edit: the liars dice have so little to do with the movie, its just some game that was in it. geesh.

Without question my favorite movie of all time. The humor, and the fights, and especially]/i] the climax with Jack were fan-freaking-tastic.
I cannot wait for the next movie.

I suppose so. I saw it last night, and there's nothing overly gorey or suggestive really, just a lot of sword fighting and bawdy wenches.

Fun movie, but I think its overrated. It was just a series of comedy skits. The plot wasn't as strong as it could have been and 3/4ths of the movie was foggy and black. I give it 8/10

A good film. The SO and I went to the cinema last night to watch it, and actually were laughing out loud for a good deal of it.
Spoiler!
The plot, though ... well, we could all see the Cap'ns return, ever since the monkey. Any thoughts as to the Commodore, and to tht incredible witch?

I thought there were some great character archetypes portrayed, each of them quite clear in their role.
Character ideas abound.
