POTC: DMC at Comic Con report
posted by Jas, 07/21/05
Kiki sent in her report on the POTC: Dead Man's Chest behind the scene footage that was shown at the Comic Con. Thanks Kiki. Spoilers ahead!

It starts off with a black screen and then you hear the familiar music from POTC. There's a voice over from none other than Capt Barbossa. I can't remember the exact lines, but it was definitely new dialogue that will most likely be in the film. There's bits of Gore Verbinski and Jerry Bruckheimer talking about how this one is different, darker and how Jack must pay a debt to Davey Jones. There's shots of Capt. Jack walking around a town, running from something or someone and engaged in some swordplay with a few bad guys. A shot of Will's father.

Saw pirates Ragetti and Pintel. There was some of Keira practicing with 2, yes 2 swords. Also a bit of her in her wedding gown looking upset (crying perhaps) and it was raining. A composite drawning was shown of Davey Jones and one of the free goodies was a lithograph of him...I got a couple or 3. Hee Hee!

Now for Will Turner! There was another composite drawing shown of Will fighting the Kraken which was huge! You can compare it to a dog standing next to an elephant, but that Kraken was really big. And then Will was shown engaged in battle with a couple of baddies (pirates I'd say since you couldn't see them just their swords and arms but Orlando was definitely the main focus of the brief bit. He was wearing the leather outfit from the GMA breakfast interview thing he and Keira did. Damn, he looked good...just not enough of him. Gotta wait till they kick off the POTC 2 promos.

POTC 2 comes out on 7/9/06 and POTC 3 is tentatively shceduled for 7/7/07. Filming resumes in August, like the first or second week.

Not much, but it's something. Oh yeah, people were cheering, we females were squeeing and everyone in Hall H seemed to really be looking forward to both movies. I think that's all.

Movies MSN has posted their best and worst of Comic-Con and said that the POTC: Dead Man's Chest is the nicest surprise

Nicest Surprise: "Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest." Disney surprised everyone by showing the first footage from the new movie. Highlights included shots of the new Flying Dutchman ship, the villainous Davey Jones (played by Bill Nighy) and Jack Sparrow being worshiped by an island of natives.

Clear scan of Will, Barbossa, and Skeleton Jack
posted by Jas, 07/21/05
Maggie sent clear scans of Will, Barbossa, and Skeleton Jack (scan 1 and 2) from Kingdom Hearts 2. Transaltion of dialogue: Barbossa (could be anyone): Let's have that medallion back kid. Details in the scan: Sora gets drawn into the PotC story with Barbossa because of the medallion, which he seems to accquire. There's a picture of Barbossa, and one of him in his skeletal appearance. New technique with Jack, "Jackknife". A treasure chest appears, which attracts the enemy. When it opens the chest, Jack attacks
