Yes, please.
One of the great strengths of the first Pirates of the Caribbean movie, which was lacking in its sequels, was its sense of unabashed adventure. It never took itself too seriously, and the series really fell off the tracks once they started trying to establish a larger story and motive and the characters. It’s encouraging to see that the fourth movie looks to return to those adventurous roots and focus on just making a fun pirate movie again. Tim Powers’ On Stranger Tides is wonderful source material for the movie. Plus, more Jack Sparrow is always a good thing….
This one looks like it’ll be quite a bit of fun. I don’t care if it’s a cash cow: i’m seeing it.

Superb. I am planning to read On Stranger Tides next year and obviously it is going to be very different but both fill me with equal and very other joy.
Man everyone hates on the sequels. I liked the second and third just as much as the first.
