Ahoy There Matey!!!

As a kid,what's the first thing that will come into your mind when it comes to pirates? Most probably it'll be a hook as your hand, an eyepatch, a stick for a leg and so forth. But what about show's related about pirates? I'm sure most of us would have seen Peter Pan with Captain Hook and his men. To be honest, I can't really remember much about this character except that he is always trying to capture Peter Pan but always fail to do so.


If traveling across the seven seas is not your type, then how about traveling across the galaxy? That's Treasure Planet, a Disney animated version of "Treasure Island". It's certainly a very unique perspective when it comes to looking at pirates. It's certainly more that you're average pirate movie of men with a map trying to look for a giant 'X' on an island.



However in 2003, the release of Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl was such a big hit. Who can forget the main character, Captain Jack Sparrow played by Johnny Depp, who is just hilarious but serious cunning at the same time.



Though Captain Barbossa was the antagonist in the first movie, he soon became an ally after he 'died'. That role was then taken by none other than Davy Jones, the man appointed by Calypso to ferry the dead to the next world.

Not this guy...

But this guy...

At the end of the third movie, it is seen that Jack Sparrow is sailing from Tortuga using a sampan small boat to find the Fountain of Youth. So there's bound to be another movie right? No doubt about it. 

This time, the journey of Jack Sparrow continues as he searches for the mystical Fountain of Youth. Meeting a woman from his past(Penélope Cruz) and the feared Blackbeard, it's definitely a must watch movie eventhough I'm in Upper 6 next year. It also seems that Orlando Bloom and Keira Knightley would not reprise their roles as William "Will" Turner and Elizabeth Swann. Here's the trailer, enjoy! =)
