Pirates of the Caribbean 4 - On stranger Tides

I can't really talk about this movie unless I mention what I thought of the other movies.. But I'm gonna keep it short.

The first movie.. LOVED IT! It was SO good and I remember that it brought back the pirates and EVERYBODY was talking about this movie and the characters and everything in it! It was SO good! I've lost count on how many times I've seen it and heard about it.

The second movie... Damn! They really lost it here. I don't remember much of it because I've only seen it once and that was enough! The comedy took over and it was nothing but jokes through the whole movie and that was really painful to watch because it's not a comedy! It's an adventure movie! So knock it off!

The third movie... I remember everyone said in the papers that this was going to be the next "Lord of the Rigs" .. So of course they were going to do a third movie... Of course they brought up a fellowship then! After I saw this I could point out SO many things that were in the Lord of the Rings that they had stolen! .. or borrowed! .. Either way I didn't like it. This movie only left me with ONE good scene that was enough that I watched it twice. And it had some good jokes here and there and the CGI looked nice at times.

Now we got the fourth movie.......

Can I please erase this movie from my memory? Please dear God, let me forget this movie ever exist?
... Yeah, this is going to be a negative review and if you REALLY love this movie and can't handle another persons oppinion... Go away! For the rest of you... I'm gonna try to be fair to the movie, but it's probably going to be really hard since I'm very disgusted by this movie. With that said, let's summorize the story.

The plot in short is that Jack wants to find the Fontain of Youth so he comes across Blackbeard and his daughter. He has to cooperate with them to find the Fontain of Youth and they have to cooperate with him... for the exact same reason. Yeah, these movies don't really explain how they come to certain solutions. At least not what I've noticed. But as what I can coprihate is that Jack knows the way to the Fontain of Youth and that's why Blackbeard cooperates with him and Jack needs a ship and that's why he cooperates with Blackbeard. Something like that. So on their way they come across the England crew and the Spanish crew that are also in it for the Fontain of youth.... So there is three crews that are looking for this one thing.... This is going to be needlessly complicated. Oh! And there's a romance in there... Ok, two, one with Jack and one with a guy that they met on Blackbeards ship... And that romance is only revealed in the mittle of the movie. And that's pretty much the story. Three crews are looking for the Fontain of youth and we follow their path to equir it. ... That's it! Next step!

So what did I think what was good with this movie... Actually I found two things I liked. I liked the lighting. It was REALLY nice and it helped feel the mood in every scene. Also the colors really poped with this lightning and it was SO good so thank you guy who did the lighting! If I ever make a movie, I will call you!

The other thing was the mermaids. I know people really like these mermaids but... Yeah! They're really good! The design of them is... OK. I'm going to be fair, they were a little stupid, but yeah, I kind of liked them anyway. The lightning really helped and the fact that they looked wet all the time! I've seen some mermaids that are dry the minute they're out in clean air. So I really liked that they were wet all the time. Second, I loved how innocent they looked before they became these evil, hungry monsters and they were really beautiful actually... At least I thought so! The song the first mermaid sings stuck with me very long and that scene was FABULUS! The mood was set SO well and it looked great and I was really hooked by it! So yeah, that scene was great! What I didn't like about them was when they turned into the hungry monsters.... Hear me out on this. The design was silly because I thought about this: They were mermaids who got bitten by a spider and a vampire.... Doesn't that sound silly? How I got to this conclusion: They had teeth like vampires (If you're going to make a monster mermaid, why not look at predator fishes? Like sharks or piranha?) and they could shoot seaweed out of their arms! .... That's silly. But other than that it was great!

The things I didn't like? ... Everything else? Ok, to be short I'm gonna say that the things I didn't like was how much they did the first movie again, or destroyed it like HELL! So now I'm probably gonna do some spoilers so... Be careful because they're coming now! Ok! So you can really play the first movie bit by bit except for a few things that was even worsely(is that even a word?) done here than in the first movie! First of, the reveal of Jack Sparrow isn't anything groundbreaking! It's like: Yeah! You know what he looks like by now so we're not going to bother with a big reveal! We give him a giant wig and some white beard and disguise him as a judge and you'll still be able to spot him by the way we are shooting! Isn't that fun? ....... Is the pirate who tricked Will Turner into coming with him to capture the Black Pearl without ANY disguise what so ever, disguising himself as a judge to free another man from hanging? ... Is the same man who dodge a hanging  himself without any disguise really disguising himself as a judge?! ... You've really lost it on who Jack Sparrow was in the first movie right? Oh, well... They at least try to connect him with the first movie since they have him REPEAT the lines from the first movie!! I'm not even kidding! The first half is pretty much made up by the first script! He says SO many lines that he said in the first movie but they did not connect as well as they did then! Here they really sound out on what lines they have stolen as to say: Do you remember this line from the first movie? ... YES! I do! So can you please leave them to that movie so that I can't quote them to THIS movie! .. Does that make sense? No? Good! Then you have some sense!

SPOILERS
And also... Why is Jack blond in the first half of the movie? .. Does he have time to dye his hair? Does he really have the money to dye his hair? Could you really dye your hair in that time period?! Oh well! So yeah, Jack is a repeatment of the first movie, do you want to talk about someone who's not? .. Are you sure you're ready for that? Really? This hurt me.. Real bad. Everytime this person cam to the screen I cried because it was so bad! ... Barbossa. They killed him. They brought him back to life so they could slaughter his whole existant in a slow and painful death and we had to watch them do it! .. I can NOT watch the first movie and have some dignity for Barbossa while the memory of this movie is still in my brain! They killed him for me! ... MAJOR SPOILERS now... Barbossa have joined in to the English crew and are now working for the King and are the leader for the crew and he is leading them to the Fontain of the Youth. .... Can you believe that? The captain that was so scary in the first movie, the man who really was a pirate and stole jeweles from pretty ladies and went all out of his way to have the biggest treasure in the world not caring of the course it brought with it! This man who lured so many, killed his own crew to proove a point... This same man... is working for the King, in an honest way. Not killing or stealing anyone/anything. ... They destroyed him. ... Please God, let me forget this horrible crime of making Barbossa into an honest man? Yeah, he's really doing this undercover to take Blackbeard but.. He didn't need to. He didn't need to... *cries*

SPOILERS
Oh! And while we're on the subject of destroying the dignity of something.. Let's disguss the Black Pearl.... Damn what a horrible fate she suffered. The fearsome ship that had black sails and a crew black as night that didn't leave any survivors and were like a ghostship that swooped in, took what she needed and vanished into the fog... She sank! End of story!

And to you who thought this was only going to be a Jack Sparrow story? HAH! Jokes on you! Since Orlando and Kieara said since the second movie that they didn't want to do any more Pirates of the Caribbean they had to work in another love story! It's between the guy who is very religous (they don't make him as annoying as they could have so that's great!) and one of the mermaids! And really.. I had no problem with this. It was a story that I had heard before, but it was such a long time ago that I wouldn't mind see it again with this modern technology. The mermaids was the only thing I liked so to see this story again with those kinds of mermaids and that lightning and those colors... Damn I would be so satisfied... But no, we get a fourth movie with the title Pirates of the Caribbean because the fans really wanted to see more Jack Sparrow... Go see the first movie again then o.o He is still there if you see it again, I promise! So can you please leave the movie makers alone so they can devote their energy into making a piece of art instead of just a "request for the fans" because it doesn't turn out well then ><!

So yeah... I really didn't like this movie. It hurt me. Physically and psycological! I don't want to remember I saw it! It was THAT bad! So now I'm gonna devote my time to get it out of me!
Have a good day! Bye!

Here's another anime.... Bear with it!
It's twelve episodes so if you're interested.

The story is... Interesting. It satters around a bunch of magical creatures and in their fun way they tell us about these creatures that we come across. However when I'm watching something for the first time I don't really read these long texts and stuff so I have no clue about these creatures but that didn't suck me out of the story. It's mostly the typical thing where a girl that wants to be alone and grow up on her own find that people around her is much more fun to be with than just being on your own. We spend the first ten episodes learning about those characters. Nothing more than just character studying... Sounds boring? It isn't! These characters were really funny and they worked off each other very well and I personally wanted to see more of those characters just having fun. It felt like when you're with your wierd friends and you're just sitting around saying nothing, but enjoying every moment because their actions were so much fun. That's what it was in the first ten episodes. I won't spoil the last episodes for those of you who haven't seen this yet but I can at least say this: At first I thought I was going to be disappointed with the ending. I was really sceptical and thought this was going to be one of those animes that tries to have a story in the beginning but then, we were just having so much fun so the story doesn't matter anymore! But no! They really tie everything together and I was pleased with every single thing this anime gave me. It didn't disappoint me one bit. This also gives you a hint of balance since the main character and the love interest help each other to get stronger and together they can grow into strong people. That is so awsome to come from an anime like this!

I guess I should talk about the things I disliked about this but... So far I can't come up with anything! It probably have some problems but I'm just so damn in love with this anime right now that I can't see it's flaws so... Congratulations anime! You really succeeded! *claps hands*

So the good stuff... I will be really quick, I won't mention everything. But yeah, the characters were great! Event though you didn't get a backstory of everybody it really fits. The're are sidecharacters and not everybody is a main character that I've seen in some other animes that looks like this. The focus is still the main character and the love interest. But you still want to enjoy everyother character that this anime present....... Well, most of them. It's probably just my persobal oppinion but one of the characters was just... He irritated the shit out of me! Luckily he just shows up in like three episodes and he's not very long in them so... Lucky me! This anime is listening to me!

The music... I can't really remember the music so it musn't have been too horrible but nothing spectacular. So it doesn't stand out too much and it definitly doesn't drag you out of the moment so it's good enough.

The animation... Damn this animation. It was SO beautiful! The colors and the design of the characters and the whole animation... It was really well done and I'm picky with my animes must be well drawn or otherwise I can't concentrate on the story. This animation really fitted with the story and the type it was going for, in my oppinion so eberything really worked!


Now I'm gonna talk about the ending so... Yeah! Lots of love for this anime and I think you should definitly go see it and get your own oppinion about it!
The last three episodes we take a deeper look into the main character and her "bodyguard" (who are suppose to build up a romance between each other) and see their bakstory and much more on how they came to know each other and.. It's really well done and it's so interesting that you feel really emotional between these two. I haven't heard this veration of this story before, I've heard parts of it, but never a whole story that was like this... Or if I have I don't remember it.

And... I don't think I want to talk about that more. I don't want to spoil to much for you because it was a really nice surprize that this was in there. But it's so good that it deserved a mention of it. I haven't read the manga on this but with me loving this anime so much I don't think I want to. It feels like it would spoil the anime for me if I realize how much of it actually was changed around and stuff. But anyway! I think I've talked about how much this was great long enough so.... Yeah, go see it! ... Not in english dub though... I'm sorry but the english dub on the japanese movies are horrible. See it with english subtitle and you'll get everything much better. Also the voices mach their characters very well in the japanese version. Enjoy!
