10 Reasons Why we Won't Watch Pirates of the Caribbean

We thought it only fair to announce why we're not going to review or even ever watch the latest sequel in the Pirates of the Caribbean franchise; so here are our reasons:
  1. We still remember the ride and now memories of our childhood have become intertwined with drunken, gay pirates and the Rolling Stones.
  2. Zombies, mermaids and mythical sea creatures were not in the original ride and represent desperate attempts to stretch out what was already a thin plot from the first Pirates movie. It's clear there won't be much of a story.
  3. It's just not the same without Keira - not that is was that great with her.
  4. We're sick of being sucked into McMovie chain franchises like this and Transformers, although we can't wait for the next Bond film or another Star Trek or Star Wars - that's different.
  5. Johnny Depp reminds us too much of those winos on the street asking for quarters.
  6. We hate seafood.
  7. We think Penelope Cruz would make a better Flamenco dancer than pirate - maybe that's sexist, but we just don't see it.
  8. You can't convince us that any man wearing eye makeup would have lasted 5 minutes on a real pirate ship.
  9. We believe in the War on Grog - "Don't do Rum."
  10. Having Depp in the film was bad enough - actually putting Keith Richards in it was just too creepy.



Yo Ho Ho, which one is the animatronic Johnny Depp ???
