Lookin good. I'd never heard of that Little Mermaid release. Bring on Pirates 5! And tell me who's directing it!

I'd like to know who's directing Pirates 5 as well. I hope it will be Gore Verbinski. But, if it ends up being rob Marshall again, then i hope he will do a great job on it!

I'm not sure I want Verbinski to do it. I loved his trilogy, but if you're going to create sequels with new characters/places/stories, then having different directors in charge each time would help to keep fresh ideas flowing in. I think.

Interesting point that you've have made there. But in all honesty, i would think that the best choice of directors to have directing Pirates 5 would easily have to be Gore Verbinski. He is the director who had directed Pirates 1 and started off the POTC franchise with the amazing originality that he gave it. Pirates 2 and Pirates 3 didn't have that because they were poorly written, and filming even started on Pirates 2 and 3 with unfinished scripts and on top of all that Pirates 2 and Pirates 3 were filmed back to back. So with that all being said it is not Gore Verbinski's fault, that Pirates 2 and Pirates 3 were bad, in terms of both of Pirates 2 and Pirates 3's scripts storys/plots. It was Ted Elliott and Terry Rossio's fault.

psst I liked 2 the best. I think they handled the stories very well. Almost every character had their own agenda that interfered with everyone else's in different ways. The climactic battle was way too effects-heavy, but apart from that, I loved 3 as well.

The climactic battle in Pirates 3 was way too cgi heavy, because the production budget was super high! They need to bring Pirates 5's production budget down to what Pirates 1's production was.

Woah? How did I miss that George Clooney was starring in 1952? Epic sci-fi written by Lindelof, directed by Bird, and starring Clooney? Sounds fantastic.

Bring us the remaining original cast from the first trilogy of Pirates and I'll be a happy man 🙂 I'd like to see how everyone has evolved.
