Pirates 3?
If anybody is Pirates of the Caribbean fan, did anybody understand the third film? At Worlds End, was a movie where the producers complicated the plot so much with the convoluted story that they in fact ruined the original? They lost sight of the fact that they were making a film for kids and having a three hour movie where the characters have four meetings and several double crosses would confuse anybody. And not to mention the fact that they lost sight that the film was based on a theme park ride, which wasn’t as gruesome as some of the violence in the two previous films. This is my direct argument with “three-quels,” it has nothing to do with the writing it has all to do with the endorsements and the bottom line, they don’t care what they put up on the screen. Another example would be Spiderman 3, the producers knew that it would make “X” amount of dollars, so the script was less their concern. That’s why it didn’t matter to them that they produced one of the worst films of all time. My plea to Hollywood is if you continue this trend of lack of a good script with these films, your franchise will end up like the old Batman series(Michael Keaton, etc.), where people will find them corny and adults will refuse to pay money for them.
