Wow. I guess TIC contributed to Dead Man's Chest smashing records and being the biggest opening weekend in movie history. ;p

Indeed, it was fun... just like an amusement park ride. ^_^ (The adult critics who've seen it and panned it viciously are humorless twits who have forgotten what mindless entertainment is like, or should be. ::snicker::)

Yeah, Orlando Bloom is so wooden, it's painful to watch. ;p I did like Johnny Depp better in the first Pirates.

(I was so tired from my previous field trip I actually fell asleep the first 15 or so minutes? Hehe. Spark either didn't notice me snoozing, or was too polite to nudge me awake. ;p )

Here's what A.O. Scott at the NY Times had to say about Bloom's 'performance':

"Mr. Bloom, as is his custom, leaps about, trying to overcome his incurable blandness, and is upstaged by special effects, musical cues, octopus tentacles and pieces of wood."

IT WAS FUN :D:D
Ididn't like the end (and im not rying to spoil anything 4 ne1 by sayin that), but it was funny
as usual, the acting scale:
Johnny Depp- terrific
Most other peopleVery nice
Orlando Bloom - what acting?

If I get back from Laura's field trip at around 5:30, I'll go straight to the theater and meet you there! Hopefully there'll still be tickets? (Or if someone who had Kass pre-buy doesn't show up ;p )
