Jack Sparrow

A site I came across dedicated to that most redeeming feature in all the Pirates series - Jack Sparrow.

Notwithstanding the fact that a very sexy Johnny Depp does a marvellous quick thinking, swashbuckling scallawag of a buccaneer with his braided beard , rasta locks , kohl lined eyes and swish walk , I ate my way through half a regular buttered popcorn and a quarter of nachos and disgusting cheese dip and I am ashamed to say fell asleep through the noisiest part of the film and thereby missed much of the barnacled mayhem that took place somewhere after the interval and woke to find a gigantic Calypso dissloving into millions of crabs - why crabs ? Why not lobsters , crayfish or some other species of crustacean ?

And oh wonder of wonders , I was so busy appraising the ponytail on a tall tubby middleaged gent that I missed the lady with him . This when the rest of the family had checked her out with reference to her background .


Must have been the cheese dip .

No , maybe the nachos

nope - then it MUST have been the chicken stuffed with cottage cheese and olives in herb and asparagus sauce with a small compote of cauliflower , broccoli and runner beans that I ate with such relish at Oh Calcutta!

i watched most of the movie-whatever wasn't cut i.e. & gerely there didn't seem to be much meaning to the movie! Just alot of special effects.

I didn't see the movie yet. Now I will be waiting for the crabs. LOL. That's okay. ;)

I'll remember to stay away from food during the movie. (I've only seen the first Pirates movie.)

Hmm, the length of the movie is something many have complained about...how it just doesn't end. If I ever get a chance to interview Johnny Depp, i am going to insist he do it as Sparrow.
From one Eve to another, Hello!

I think I just licked your blog. Ahhhhh Johnny!

Ha! That crabs were hilarious. An essential plot element. They moved the ship over sand, and the goddess exploded into pieces of them. More important than the crazy excuse for a storyline anyway.

And yes, that Calyptic explosion had me in splits. :D!
