Trailer: Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides



For the record, I actually thought the first film, Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl, was excellent. Entertaining and funny with enjoyable performances, it was everything you wanted from a classic Disney family adventure film. Since then, I've seen none of the sequels. This may just be my relentless cynicism, or it could speak volumes about where the series has gone since its original incarnation. Either way, the fourth one is here, with the addition of Ian McShane and Penélope Cruz to the standard cast. Given my apathy towards the franchise, my opinion is invalid, so I've posted the trailer so everyone else can see what they think. Regardless, I'm sure this 3D blockbuster will rake in the cash come summer time, giving the studio licence for, dare I say it, another sequel. Johnny Depp's wallet must be more like a toddler's booster seat by now.
