Pirates of the Caribbean 4 Gets Subtitle "On Stranger Tides", Set for Summer 2011 - /Film /Film Pirates of the Caribbean 4 Gets Subtitle “On Stranger Tides”, Set for Summer 2011 Posted on Friday, September 11th, 2009 by Peter Sciretta At the D23 Disney Fan Expo, Walt Disney Studios unveiled the logo/title for the fourth film in the Pirates of the Caribbean series: Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides. No plot details have been revealed. What might “On Stranger Tides” mean? Johnny Depp, who was on hand for the annoucnement, will reprise his role as Captain Jack Sparrow. Erik Davis has noticed that a pirate novel with the title “On Stranger Tides” exists , although it is unknown if it is related to the new Disney film. Here is the synopsis from the novel: Puppeteer John Chandagnac, bound for Jamaica to recover stolen money from his uncle, becomes Jack Shandy after pirates attack his ship and force him to join their crew.

Shandy’s struggle to accept his new life grounds the story for readers, even as Blackbeard and vodun magicians whisk everyone away to dreamlike lands where the Fountain of Youth itself awaits. The chaotic sea battles sing, though at times key events happen so quickly that they get lost in the shuffle as Jack tries to comprehend where he’s going and what’s at stake. Most people expect the fourth film to follow Sparrow’s adventure to find the Fountain of Youth, a treasure revealed at the conclusion of the third film. The fourth installment of the Pirates of the Caribbean franchise is gearing up to begin shooting around April or May 2010 for a tenative Summer 2011 release. Disney has previously said that the plan is for Pirates 4 to “hopefully be the first of another trilogy,” which would be shot by itself, and not back-to-back like the previous Pirates sequels. No word on who will direct the new film. Series helmer Gore Verbinski was originally attached to another Pirates film, but left to direct a big screen adaptation of the video game Bioshock. But as you probably know by now, Bioshock got passed to another filmmaker.

Cool Posts From Around the Web: PIRATES OF THE CARIBBEAN: ON STRANGER TIDES – Hans Zimmer | MOVIE MUSIC UK Home > Reviews > PIRATES OF THE CARIBBEAN: ON STRANGER TIDES – Hans Zimmer PIRATES OF THE CARIBBEAN: ON STRANGER TIDES – Hans Zimmer Original Review by Jonathan Broxton The fourth Pirates of the Caribbean movie, subtitled On Stranger Tides, came a little belatedly, four years after the conclusion of the well-received third entry in the record breaking series, At World’s End. Although Johnny Depp and Geoffrey Rush return at the strutting Captain Jack Sparrow ad his nemesis Barbossa, gone are co-stars Orlando Bloom and Keira Knightley, as is director Gore Verbinski. In their place is new director Rob Marshall – whose last film, the musical Nine, couldn’t have been more different – while the new supporting players include Penelope Cruz and Ian McShane. The story follows the search for the mythical Fountain of Youth; Cruz plays Angelica, one of Captain Jack’s old flames, while McShane plays the legendary Blackbeard, Angelica’s father and Jack’s rival in the hunt for eternal life.

Also returning to the fray is composer Hans Zimmer, writing his fourth entry in the series (Klaus Badelt was credited with the first score, but we all know that Zimmer wrote it really). Despite their clear anachronisms and lack of anything remotely like the music heard in the original Disneyland ride, Zimmer’s themes from Pirates of the Caribbean have become enormously popular amongst the general public. This music is one of the most unexpected soundtrack success stories of the new millennium, and despite all their flaws, I thoroughly enjoy them, especially the bold and robust third score, which I consider one of the finest scores of Zimmer’s entire career. Imagine my disappointment, then, when not only did I find the music in On Stranger Tides a little on the weak side, but the soundtrack album released by Disney contained no less than seven remixes of score cues by artists who have nothing to do with the film at all. To add something of a Hispanic flair to the score, Zimmer enlisted the help of the Mexican guitar duo Rodrigo Sánchez and Gabriela Quintero, collectively known as Rodrigo y Gabriela, who shot to fame in 2006 after being discovered playing brilliant, astonishingly fast guitar pieces on the streets of Dublin in Ireland.

When their involvement with this film was announced the prospect of their music combining with Zimmer’s power anthem excited me greatly, but puzzlingly their contribution to the score is as underwhelming as Zimmer’s. In fact, one of the most disappointing things about the album is how unoriginal a lot of it is. The opening cue, “Guilty of Being Innocent of Jack Sparrow”, is basically a set of variations on the primary and secondary Jack Sparrow themes which everyone knows. “Mutiny” restates the thunderous Black Pearl motif from the original film, mixing it with the ‘dirty biker’ vibe that accompanied the Crew of the Flying Dutchmen from the second film, while “Palm Tree Escape” contains restatements of the familiar action music ostinatos from the first two films, albeit with Rodrigo y Gabriela strumming away on their guitars as part of the percussion section. Similarly, the “End Credits” piece is little more than a restatement of the Jack Sparrow theme, again with Rodrigo y Gabriela in a guest appearance, bringing the score to a close before the remixes kick in. Three new main themes for this score are for the two new main characters, and one of the score’s unsettling set piece elements.

“Angelica” is the score’s main new theme, written for the Penelope Cruz character. It’s a fiery Latin effort, a pasodoble-inspired dance piece for Martin Tillman’s low, throaty electric cello chords and a Rodrigo y Gabriela guitar melody which strums flamboyantly over the top. To match the nature of the character, it is simultaneously antagonistic and romantic, clearly alluding to the love-hate relationship that Jack and Angelica share throughout the film, and also cleverly mirroring the traditional setting for a pasodoble, which is between a Spanish bullfighter and his bovine quarry. Blackbeard has a threatening-sounding march which is clearly a cousin to Davy Jones’ theme from Dead Man’s Chest, but with more swirling guitar writing, hammered metal percussion, and an unusual end to the main melodic line which (very oddly) reminds me of Dance of the Sugar Plum Fairy from Tchaikovsky’s The Nutcracker.

Finally, Eric Whitacre’s cue “Mermaids” is probably the most interesting new cue on the album, a moody, vocally-inflected cue which acts as a clever representation of the beautiful siren song which lures unwitting men to their doom on the jagged rocks upon which the mermaids sit. Whitacre’s cooing, ghostly vocals emerge out of bed of fog-like synthesized chords, and initially have an inviting and alluring quality, before lonely brass counterpoints and slightly disturbing echoing effects begin to give the listener pause for concern, and then outright chills. The orchestra-only recapitulation of the theme in “On Stranger Tides” is also very effective. Harry Gregson-Williams and Lisbeth Scott did something similar to this in his pirate movie, Sinbad: Legend of the Seven Seas, back in 2003, to equally excellent effect, proving that the approach is a sound one. For those who don’t know, Eric Whitacre is popular, successful and critically-acclaimed American classical composer whose choral music is especially lauded by the contemporary classical music literati.

Rodrigo y Gabriela contribute their talents to three additional cues – “The Pirate That Should Not Be”, “South of Heaven’s Chanting Mermaids” and “Angry and Dead Again” – some of which do contain passages of quite vivid guitar duet writing. The first and third of these tracks contain a couple of clever variations on the familiar Jack Sparrow themes, while their Mermaids cue takes Whitacre’s new melody and re-arranges it for solo guitar, giving it a quite interesting spin. However, although they are clearly massively talented, and I actually quite enjoy some of their performances, it’s almost as though a lot fo that which makes them so wonderful – their originality, their unpredictability, the complexity of their writing, the speed and energy of their performances – was sucked out of them, another casualty of Disney’s corporate conformity. Rather than contributing anything truly original to the project, their cues play rather like cover versions of Pirates music, not really adding anything new to the series musical canon. Oh, and as far as the remixes are concerned, let me say this.

I listened to them all, once, the first time I listened to the score all the way through, I have absolutely no desire to listen to any of them ever again. Make of that what you will. Considering how wonderful the last Pirates score was, and despite how much I enjoy Rodrigo y Gabriela’s work on its own merits, and despite the cleverness of the Eric Whitacre cue, one can’t help feeling that this is something of a step back in terms of the quality of the music for the franchise. It’s as though Zimmer forgot everything that made At World’s End so good, and instead just rehashed the synth-heavy music from the first two films, drowning out his robust orchestra with the familiar electronic overlays that suck all the depth out of the music. However, having said all that, and having expressed my general disappointment about the whole project, I nevertheless find myself rather enjoying the 45-minute listening experience presented by the score, which puts me in a quandary. Does it matter if the music is good or not when I enjoy listening to it? How does that manifest itself as an overall?

In the end I resorted to simple mathematics: it’s a four-star listening experience, minus half a star for the awful remixes, and minus half a star for rehashing too much music from films one and two.

Pirates 4 Sails Stranger Tides | News | Movies - Empire Pirates 4 Sails Stranger Tides Novel direction for next instalment Johnny Depp sailed into the all-things-Disney D23 convention at the tail end of last week, in full Jack Sparrow regalia, to help announce that the fourth film in the Pirates of the Caribbean franchise is officially slated for release in summer 2011.

It also now has a subtitle: On Stranger Tides. And with those words, all of a sudden, as if by magic, Pirates 4 is a far more enticing prospect that we might previously have thought, because On Stranger Tides is an excellent, Locus Award-winning novel by Tim Powers, so we're guessing that its plot is being twisted to fit the Pirates franchise. First published in 1988, the novel's protagonist is the puppeteer turned accountant John Chandagnac, later aka Jack Shandy, who while on a trip to confront his nefarious uncle about some dodgy family business, is waylaid by pirates and ultimately ends up captaining the crew. What ensues is a search for the legendary Fountain of Youth incorporating voodoo, zombies, a dastardly one-armed Oxbridge professor, and a number of real historical characters, such as Bahamian governor Woodes Rogers, the Spanish explorer Juan Ponce de Leon, and best of all, the supernaturally beleaguered arch-pirate Edward "Blackbeard" Thatch.

You may recall, if you were still awake, that as the credits rolled on At World's End, we had just left Cap'n Jack Sparrow en-route for the Fountain of Youth. Powers' novel will obviously require some re-fitting to replace Shandy with Sparrow (if that's the plan), but the rest of the book is incredibly well-placed to slot fairly effortlessly into the POTC mythos (it even has an insipid heroine that you kind of wish would bugger off). Anyone who ever pointed and clicked at The Curse of Monkey Island may also be stoked to learn that Ron Gilbert cites On Stranger Tides as a key influence on the Lucasarts game series. A fan on the Lucasarts messageboards says that he met Powers earlier in the year at a convention, and that the author told him he'd signed the book over to Disney on the proviso that he got to be an extra in the movie (that and a fat wad of cash, we'd assume). Dude, you didn't think to mention this earlier?!

Sadly, the book is not currently available in the UK, so if you want to do your homework you'll have to shell out for a second-hand copy or get a rather pricey small-press edition from the States. Or you could try Powers' earlier The Anubis Gates, which won the Philip K Dick award and is easily available in Gollancz' Fantasy Masterworks series. Somehow though, we doubt On Stranger Tides will stay out of print for long. People Pirates of the Caribbean Franchise (New Time) | Alternative History | Fandom powered by Wikia Pirates of the Caribbean Franchise (New Time) 41,178pages on Share Series Logo Pirates of the Caribbean is a series of fantasy adventure films produced and directed by Guillermo del Toro, as del Toro directed the four films. The series was scripted by Terry Rossio, Ted Elliott (1–4), and Jeff Nathanson (5), with the stories following the adventures of Captain Jack Sparrow ( Robert Downey, Jr. ), Captain Barbossa ( Gary Oldman ), Joshamee Gibbs (Alfred Molina), Will Turner (Henry Cavill), and Elizabeth Swann (Carey Mulligan).

The films take place in a fictional historical setting; a world ruled largely by an amalgam of alternative versions of the British Empire and the East India Company, with the pirates representing freedom from the ruling powers. The films started with their first release on the big screen in 2003 with Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl, which received positive reviews from the critics and grossed $654 million worldwide. After the first film's success, del Toro revealed that a trilogy was in the works. The franchise's second film, subtitled Dead Man's Chest, was released three years later in 2006; the sequel proved successful, breaking financial records worldwide the day of its premiere. It ended up being the number one film of the year upon earning $1,066,179,725 at the worldwide box office. The third film in the series, subtitled At World's End, followed in 2007, and del Toro released a fourth film, subtitled On Stranger Tides, on May 20, 2011 in conventional 2D, Digital 3-D and IMAX 3D.

On Stranger Tides succeeded in grossing more than $1 billion, becoming the second film in the franchise and the eighth film in history to achieve this. So far, the film franchise has grossed $3.72 billion worldwide; it is the sixth highest-grossing film series of all-time and it was the first franchise where more than one film grossed $1 billion worldwide. A fifth film, subtitled Dead Men Tell No Tales, is currently in development. Contents Films The Curse of the Black Pearl (2006) Blacksmith Will Turner teams up with eccentric pirate Captain Jack Sparrow to save his love, Elizabeth Swann, from undead pirates led by Jack's former first mate, Captain Barbossa. Jack wants revenge against Barbossa, who left him stranded on an island before stealing his ship, the Black Pearl, along with 882 pieces of cursed Aztec Gold. Dead Man's Chest (2010) Lord Cutler Beckett of the East India Trading Company arrests Will and Elizabeth for aiding Captain Jack Sparrow in the previous film.

Beckett offers clemency if Will agrees to search for Jack's compass in a bid to find the Dead Man's Chest – and inside, the heart of villainous Davy Jones – which would give Beckett control of the seas. However, Jack wants the Chest to escape from an unpaid debt with Jones, who raised the Black Pearl from the seabed (after it was sunk by Beckett) and made Jack captain for 13 years in exchange for 100 years of service aboard Jones' ship. At the World's End (2013) Lord Beckett gains power over Davy Jones, and with the help of Jones' ship, the Flying Dutchman, he is now executing his plans to extinguish piracy forever. To stand against the East India Trading Co., Will, Elizabeth, Barbossa, and the crew of the Black Pearl set out to rescue Captain Jack Sparrow from Davy Jones' Locker. As one of the Nine Pirate Lords, Jack is needed in order to summon an ancient goddess with the power to defeat Beckett's forces. On Stranger Tides (2015) Captain Jack Sparrow is on a quest to find the fabled Fountain of Youth and crosses paths with a former lover, Angelica.

She forces Jack aboard the Queen Anne's Revenge, a ship captained by the infamous pirate Blackbeard, Angelica's father. Both are also in search of the Fountain; Angelica to save her father's soul, Blackbeard to escape a prophecy of his demise at the hands of a one-legged man. Joining the hunt is former pirate captain Barbossa, now a privateer in King George II's Navy, who is in a race against the Spanish for the Fountain. Production First Film In the early 1990s screenwriters Guilermo del Toro and Terry Rossio conceived a supernatural spin on the pirate genre after completing work on Aladdin, but there was no interest from any studio. Undeterred, the writing team refused to give up the dream, waiting for a studio to pick up their take on a pirate tale. Warner had Jay Wolpert write a script based on the Pirates of the Caribbean, which producer Guilermo del Toro rejected, feeling it was "a straight pirate movie". Del Toro brought Stuart Beattie in to rewrite the script in March 2002, due to his knowledge of piracy, and later that month Elliott and Rossio were brought in.

Elliott and Rossio, inspired by the opening narration of the Pirates of the Caribbean ride, decided to give the film a supernatural edge. As the budget rose, Michael Eisner and Robert Iger threatened to cancel the film, though Del Toro changed their minds when he showed them concept art and animatics. In June 2002 the own Del Toro signed on to direct The Curse of the Black Pearl, and recurring Del Toro collaborators, Robert Downey, Jr. and Gary Oldman signed on the following month to star.[ Del Toro was attracted to the idea of using modern technology to resurrect a genre, one that had disappeared after the Golden Age of Hollywood, and recalled his childhood memories of the ride, feeling the film was an opportunity to pay tribute to the "scary and funny" tone of it. Downey, Jr. was attracted to the story as he found it quirky: rather than trying to find treasure, the crew of the Black Pearl were trying to return it in order to lift their curse; also, the traditional mutiny had already taken place.

Del Toro approached Oldman for the role of Barbossa, as he knew he would not play it with attempts at complexity, but with a simple villainy that would suit the story's tone. Henry Cavill read the script after Oldman, with whom he was working on Ned Kelly, suggested it to him. Carey Mulligan came as a surprise to del Toro: he had not seen her performance in Bend It Like Beckham and was impressed by her audition. Tom Wilkinson was negotiated with to play Governor Swann, but the role went to Timothy Dalton, whom Downey idolized. Shooting for The Curse of the Black Pearl began on October 9, 2002 and wrapped by March 7, 2003. Before its release, many executives and journalists had expected the film to flop, as the pirate genre had not been successful for years, the film was based on a theme-park ride, and Downey rarely made a big film. However, The Curse of the Black Pearl became both a critical and commercial success.

Second and Third Films After seeing how well the first film was made, the cast and crew signed for two sequels to be shot back-to-back, a practical decision on Warner's part to allow more time with the same cast and crew. Writers Ted Elliott and Terry Rossio knew that with an ensemble cast, they weren't free to invent totally different situations and characters, as with the Indiana Jones and James Bond series, and so had to retroactively turn The Curse of the Black Pearl into the first of a trilogy. They wanted to explore the reality of what would happen after Will Turner and Elizabeth Swann's embrace at the end of the first film, and initially considered the Fountain of Youth as the plot device. They settled on introducing Davy Jones, the Flying Dutchman and the Kraken, a mythology mentioned twice in the first film. They introduced the historical East India Trading Company (also mentioned in the first film), which for them represented a counterpoint to the themes of personal freedom represented by pirates. Filming for the sequels began on February 28, 2005, with Dead Man's Chest finishing on March 1, 2006, and At World's End on January 10, 2007.

The two films had been critically-acclaimed by professional critics, praising the acting of both the main cast members and the secondary, as well as managing to cast all the same actors from the previous films. However, fans of the series generally dislikes that the second and third films contained less humor than it's predecessor. Fourth Film Del Toro discovered the novel On Stranger Tides during production of Dead Man's Chest and At World's End and decided to use it as the basis for a fourth film. As he was unavailable, Del Toro invited Shane Black to direct the film. Elliott and Rossio decided to do a standalone film, with a story that would support new characters, and incorporate elements from the novel, such as Blackbeard, the Fountain of Youth and mermaids—the latter two having been already alluded to in the previous films. Downey, Oldman, Colin Firth and Michael Caine returned to their roles, and the cast saw the additions of Ben Kingsley as Blackbeard and Rosario Dwason as Angelica, Blackbeard's daughter and Jack Sparrow's love interest. A further addition was Richard Griffiths as King George II of Great Britain.

After the costly production of two simultaneous films, Warner tried to scale down the fourth installment, giving a lower budget, which led to cheaper locations and fewer scenes with special effects. It was also filmed in 3D, with cameras similar to the ones used in Avatar. The film has also met with critical-acclaim, again praising the acting, special effects and plot, however, criticize for having almost no character from the previous film back. Fifth Film In the fourth film the cast and crew were told by Warner not to occupy their time in the near future, as the studio intended to shoot a fifth and sixth film back-to-back. However, it was later stated that only a fifth film was in the works. On January 14, 2011, it was confirmed that Guilermo del Toro would write the screenplay for the fifth installment, without his co-writer Ted Elliott, the second Del Toro-produced film to do so after Cronos. Robert Downey, Jr. said that he would be happy to return as Captain Jack Sparrow saying "As long as we can put all the puzzle pieces together, I would most definitely consider it". Del Toro said that the fifth film would be a stand-alone film.

It was reported that Terry Rossio finished the script for the fifth film, and he had handed it to Warner executives. Gary Oldman had commented on returning as Hector Barbossa in the fifth installment, saying "If they keep shapeshifting this character, absolutely" as well as implying he may return as the villain. He also said that Barbossa's megalomania "could explode in horrific ways." Speaking at the fourth film's press launch in Cannes, Downey said he would play the role for as long as it is popular with the public. In October 2011, Jerry Bruckheimer confirmed that they are working on a script. On July 6, 2011, Robert Downey, Jr. was reported to be close to a deal for the fifth film. Henry Cavill said he would like to return for the film if he was offered. There was a report by Moviehole that, when asked about the film's plot, a separate Warner contact simply said: "Will Turner's story might not be finished". In August 2012 news surfaced that Robert Downey, Jr. signed on officially for the fifth film.

In November 2012, Sunset, the ship which played the Black Pearl and the Queen Anne's Revenge in the second, third, and the latter in the fourth film was docked into Long Beach, California from Oahu, Hawaii where On Stranger Tides was filmed, waiting for her call up. On January 11, 2013, Jeff Nathanson signed on to write the script for the film. On January 14, 2013, Warner announced that the film would be released on July 10, 2015. On May 9, 2013, Disney announced its short list of directors included Fredrik Bond, Joachim Rønning & Espen Sandberg, and Rupert Sanders. On May 29, 2013, Rønning and Sandberg were selected to direct. On August 22, 2013, Rønning and Sandberg revealed that the title of the fifth film would be Dead Men Tell No Tales.

They also confirmed that they were working on the film, speaking highly of Del Toro's "funny, poetic and touching" script and that they are inspired by the first film, The Curse of the Black Pearl. Since the delay, rumors have arisen regarding the film, including its plot. On September 11, 2013, Bleeding Cool revealed plot details for the film which includes a new female lead and troublemaker for Captain Jack Sparrow who is suspected of witchcraft, but is actually a scientist; two new romantic leads from farming families; a ghost in a lead role, a former member of the British military who is now sided with Captain Barbossa on a revenge mission, which gives the film its title. The film also supposedly starts with an "awkward wedding" and concludes with "a riff on the myth of the Bermuda Triangle". Daily Mail later reported that Brad Dourif would return as Jack Sparrow's adoptive dad Captain Teague Sparrow and that the plot revolves around a search for "The Trident", which Dourif's Teague holds valuable information to.

Other details seem to confirm previous rumors: Hugo Weaving may play the villain named "Captain Brand", who wants the Trident so he can get his revenge on Jack, who Brand believes had turned his brother Eric into a pirate, which led to his death. Another plot detail is that Jack becomes enchanted by Barbossa's daughter, Carina Smyth. Carina is a skilled astronomer who is accused of witchcraft due to her science knowledge and, according to Bleeding Cool, the studio is interested in Rebecca Hall for this role. In November, 2013, actors Ian McKellen, Alice Braga, Warwick Davis, Thomas Sangster and Timothy Spall (whom all played Black Pearl's crew members in the last film), stated their interest in returning to the franchise.

Jack 22 May 2011 | by Movie_Muse_Reviews (IL, USA) – See all my reviews After a four-year hiatus to regroup and determine the future of the franchise, Disney and what was once its surprise mega-hit "Pirates of the Caribbean" series have returned in "On Stranger Tides." Hard to believe that this franchise evolved from the once-lambasted concept of a theme park ride being turned into a successful motion-picture blockbuster. After exhausting the "Pirates" world with two back-to-back sequels of titanic and rather disappointing proportion in 2006 and 2007, a break in the action to recalibrate Captain Jack Sparrow's compass was much-needed. The "new" course set by "On Stranger Tides" uses worn sails, but with a fresh wind of characters and more importantly, a more direct purpose.

As promised in the end of "At World's End," Jack's looking for the Fountain of Youth if for nothing more than ships and giggles. First, however, he must take a side trip to London to rescue his old pal Gibbs (Kevin McNally) and subsequently the palace of King George (Richard Griffiths in a lovely cameo). There, he learns that his old pal Barbossa (Rush) has lost The Black Pearl as well as his leg and sold out to His Majesty's Royal Navy. He is to help the English find the Fountain before the Spaniards do. Jack, of course, knows the way there, thus continuing his ongoing role as an indispensable pestilence. After a familiar improvised escape, he crosses paths with an old lover, Angelica (Penelope Cruz), who he once deflowered before she was to take her vows at a convent. She mentions she has a ship he can borrow, only it turns out that it's her father's ship, the Queen Anne's Revenge, captained by none other than Blackbeard the Pirate (Ian McShane), a feared and soulless scourge with a minor in black magic. So much for smooth sailing.

As overdone and cliché as the Fountain of Youth may be, it's perfect for the "Pirates" franchise and helps keep things very simple, something the last installment had more than a fair deal of trouble with. Only a few character subplots threaten to convolute the story, but all motivations lead to the Fountain regardless the reason. In fact, "On Stranger Tides" marks the first film to truly focus on Captain Jack. With Orlando Bloom and Keira Knightley's characters out of the way, the franchise can keep the spotlight on the reason it's gotten four films deep. Depp has nothing new in store for us as the true center of attention, but by continuing to underplay the trademark quirks and mannerisms, he continues to prolong the deterioration of the Capt. Jack act. Some might disagree, but it depends how much you liked him the first place. In terms of new faces, Ian McShane is impeccable as Blackbeard. Rush gave a wonderfully theatrical performance as the main villain in the first film, but McShane introduces the first true quantifiable force of evil the franchise has seen.

Although his voodoo abilities and reputation for killing his men and bringing them back from the dead to serve as his zombie slaves are never entirely realized, he's the merciless villain this film needed. He never fully crosses into scare-your-children evil, but he could've at any instant and that feeling radiates from his performance. In general, this film aligns itself more with fantasy and traditional folklore than the supernatural like the previous film. Among other new faces, Rob Marshall as the franchise's new director does serviceable work. The "Chicago" filmmaker chews the scenery well and creates effective moods and tones, but the action could have been a bit more inspired, especially considering the series' reputation for sword-fighting ingenuity. Marshall's best work and the film's best sequence deals with mermaids, not the singing and seashell bra type, but seduce you with their looks and then try and devour you with fangs type. Quiet, suspenseful and culminating in a full-on action sequence, the mermaids constitute the one completely fresh element of the film.

Their cove is the lone stop on the journey as well, so it's the only aspect of the plot that creates that classic seafaring adventure feeling akin to Homer's "The Odyssey." Not much else deviates from the formula, so those hoping for a resurgence in the series or something as good as the first film, "The Curse of the Black Pearl," will remain wishful thinkers once again. It's hard to imagine where the series could go next without retreading over old ground or just introducing new characters for the sake of it, but Captain Jack Sparrow remains one of the few reliable comforts of blockbuster cinema, and any adventure with him at the wheel will struggle to be a total waste of time. "On Stranger Tides" makes just enough adjustments to the series to make for a successful installment. ~Steven C Visit my site at 30 of 44 people found this review helpful.

Published on Jul 11, 2014 Pirates of the Caribbean is a series of fantasy adventure films produced by Jerry Bruckheimer and based on Walt Disney's theme park ride of the same name. Directors of the series include Gore Verbinski (1--3), Rob Marshall (4), and Joachim Rønning & Espen Sandberg (5). The series was scripted by Terry Rossio, Ted Elliott (1--4), and Jeff Nathanson (5), with the stories following the adventures of Captain Jack Sparrow (Johnny Depp), Captain Barbossa (Geoffrey Rush), Joshamee Gibbs (Kevin McNally), Will Turner (Orlando Bloom), and Elizabeth Swann (Keira Knightley). The films take place in a fictional historical setting; a world ruled largely by an amalgam of alternative versions of the British Empire and the East India Company, with the pirates representing freedom from the ruling powers.

The films started with their first release on the big screen in 2003 with Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl, which received positive reviews from the critics and grossed $654 million worldwide. After the first film's success, Walt Disney Pictures revealed that a trilogy was in the works. The franchise's second film, subtitled Dead Man's Chest, was released three years later in 2006; the sequel proved successful, breaking financial records worldwide the day of its premiere. It ended up being the number one film of the year upon earning $1,066,179,725 at the worldwide box office. The third film in the series, subtitled At World's End, followed in 2007, and Disney released a fourth film, subtitled On Stranger Tides, on May 20, 2011 in conventional 2D, Digital 3-D and IMAX 3D. On Stranger Tides succeeded in grossing more than $1 billion, becoming the second film in the franchise and the eighth film in history to achieve this.

So far, the film franchise has grossed $3.72 billion worldwide; it is the seventh highest-grossing film series of all-time and it was the first franchise where more than one film grossed $1 billion worldwide. A fifth film, subtitled Dead Men Tell No Tales, is currently in development. This video is targeted to blind users.

Speculation has already begun that the subtitle “On Stranger Tides” refers to author Tim Powers’ novel with the same name.

The following is the official description of the book: Puppeteer John Chandagnac, who was sailing to Jamaica to get revenge on the uncle who had stolen his father’s inheritance, has no choice but to join the buccaneers who have taken him prisoner–and soon, known now as the pirate Jack Shandy, he finds himself learning to survive in a treacherous new world of cutlass-fights, sea-battles, and voodoo magic on sun-blinded tropical islands. The legendary Blackbeard is assembling a ruthless navy of pirates living and undead to voyage to the fabled Fountain of Youth, and Jack Shandy must use magic, swordsmanship, and even his puppeteer skills to free himself and the girl he has fallen in love with from Blackbeard’s deadly supernatural domination. At the end of the third “Pirates” movie, it is shown that both Barbossa (Geoffrey Rush) and Jack Sparrow (Johnny Depp) are next eyeing the Fountain of Youth. Barbossa has “stolen” the Black Pearl back from Sparrow, but Sparrow has cut out the most important part of Barbossa’s map to the Fountain of Youth.

If they will be adapting the book, will Sparrow and Barbossa have to team up again against Blackbeard? We’ll have to wait and see how it will turn out.
