[@jimpanz31]

None of the movies were confusing, just pay a little more attention than u do in the classroom and everything becomes clear :)

The thing I dont understand in Transformers is how they say in the first movie that they never visited earth. In second movie its been said that the transformers always existed on earth. now in fifth movie they say that transformers helped the humans aka king arthur

That was no accident, the 4th one never existed, it's an urban myth

[@LedPESRule]

no.

[@jacobgaddis5925]

I personally think At Worlds End is the 2nd best movie of the series. True, it is complicated on the first watch, but once you watch it 2 or 3 times it's not that complicated with a many cool visuals, great sea battles, and some great characters. Plus, the movie is very rewatchable.

[@pariswaterfall20]

plus elizabeth and will had a kid which is shown in the after credits scene of at worlds end

[@OneWingedRose]

I genuinely don't get how people can be all about Game of Thrones with its multiple characters with individual motives and double crosses but at the same time say the third Pirates film is a "mess". The third Pirates film is a wonderful piece of storytelling with a large cast of characters, who you've gotten to know over the two prior movies, all with their own individual motivations and goals, they're incredibly human characters (despite some of them being literally not-human) and it's fantastic to watch them interact with eachother. So, on that note, I'd personally say it goes (in terms of ranking): 3, 1, 2, 4 3's the best in my opinion because of how well it tells a complex story with real humanity. 1's next because honestly out of the four I'd say this is the only other good one, it's fun, it knows what it wants to do and it does it. 2 has some fun times so it gets put higher than 4 (which I honestly found just flat out boring), but 2 is 100% a set-up movie for 3 and it loses a lot because of that, ultimately very little happens in the movie beyond lots of running around and some odd fights. 4's last because holy snoozefest it got boring, it has its moments (it IS a pirates movie after all), but yeah, not the best by a long shot.

[@patrickhaeusler]

I love the soundtrack of the Pirates Movies.

[@nickpaulclash2]

[@dragoneyelord]

As a child I loved every one of them, now I only realy like the first one, I don't care about any of the other movies because 2 and 3 are just way to complicated without explaining something properly and 4 doesn't have a good story or characters

[@rostislavkralik4178]

It does have story and soul, its just that the story is not particularly good. Fun, yes... not good.

[@kcsupersonic1]

I actually really enjoyed At World's End. It felt properly epic in scale and all the characters had consistent character motivations. At the core, the life of a Pirate is a life of freedom and that was At World's End's main theme. Jack wanted pure freedom, Will wanted to free his father, Elizabeth wanted to be free to marry Will, Barbossa wanted to be free of his 'contract' with Tia Dalma, Calypso wanted to be free of her mortal form, Davy Jones wanted to be free of control from Lord Cutler Beckett, the Pirates wanted to be free of the East India Trading Company and by extension Davy Jones, and the main villain, Beckett, wanted not freedom but control over the seas. All of the plot revolved around how these characters strategized and maneuvered to achieve their respective 'freedoms.'

[@joeward2816]

Do people really find these movies hard to follow?

[@DFTony1]

With the release of the latest installment of the Pirates saga Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Men Tell No Tales coming up soon, we're breaking down everything you need to know about the series so you can skip the rewatch. You're welcome. From the description

[@Iganboas]

Joe Ward people just expect to have everything spoon fed to them. These movies rock, they're amazing

[@heyalfikr]

TheBigYC Hal Rudnick is a comedic dude, not a movie dude like Dan Murrel. Not surprising if he struggle to understand At World Ends with the multiple overlay of backstabs & alliances.

[@delusionnnnn]

There's a few things going on here. They've all got a lot going on in them, they've all got a fairly large cast, and they all go on for an excess of two hours. Presumably, most people buy-in on the idea of Depp's character, and probably Knightly and Bloom's character, and a villain or two. But when you add lots of sub-plots, the idea of so many extra characters adds a high level of likelihood that any particular person just doesn't care about the extra plots, doesn't like a particular actor or character, or finds certain elements repetitive. I personally find the movies exhausting because they try to do too much.

[@corneliusvonhardenberg291]

the problem is, that they have multiple logic plot wholes, what makes them confusing.

[@uttkarshnarayan]

we didn't talk about the actual confusing part of World end. In which barbossa releases Calipso from her human form to help them in the war by telling her that it was Davy Jones who told the brethren how to bind her in the first place using the 9 pieces of 8. Davy Jones was betrayed by Calipso coz she didn't show up for his 1 day vacation after 10 years @ sea as part of flying dutchman deal which Calipso gave to Davy Jones so that they could stay together forever. But Calipso was betrayed by Davy Jones coz he snitched on her secrets with the brethren. But feel betrayed by each other even thought they still love each other?? thats their motivation by the way for everything mostly. After Calipso is released and is told about Davy Jones betrayal, she turns into sea creatures and escapes just before making a sad/angry face as in she's gonna kick some tentacle ass. The weather changes for the battle, by Calipso and we never see her again. As the weather changes Davy Jones realizes that this is Calipso's doing, and he makes a sad/adoring face as in he's sorry for what has happened between them and charges into battle in Calipso's name (my interpretation). At the end when Davy Jones dies he makes a face as in he's finally released from his curse but also as in that he can finally be together with Calipso (sea) again even after all that talk of hating each other?? Betrayal relapse anyone. He false into the sea. The storm caused by Calipso goes away. Maybe because she exacted revenge on Davy Jones betrayal by causing the scenario of his death? or maybe coz she's happy the same way Davy Jones is for being able to be together with him after all this hullabaloo. Lovers unite?? or Revenge exacted?? who can say. and that's the actually confusing part. the sub plot love/revenge story of davy jones and calipso. PS the reason Calipso didn't show up for Davy Jones 1 day vacation thingy was coz it was her nature to be like that and he can't blame her for acting according to her nature coz otherwise he wouldn't really love Calipso then now could he. Coz he fell in love with Calipso's nature. That's what started all this mess FYI

[@Yeah_Whocares]

I remember everything about the original trilogy. Can't tell you shit about the 4th movie *googles* On Stranger Tides(Forgot the name of it)... In fact I think I am even getting it mixed up with Chronicles of Narnia The voyage (3rd movie)

[@DFTony1]

y r u here then

[@Yeah_Whocares]

To converse with other people who also think the first 3 films were memorable and the 4th one is easily forgettable due to a saturated market and really forgettable addition to the franchise.... Unless you want a joke answer... Then to find a reason to watch anything screen Junkies that isn't Honest trailers.

[@Mysikrysa]

The irony is, the makers of the new one obviously were not well informed because they were breaking the premises of the whole pirate world.

[@jharj71]

Johnny Depp got Oscar and Golden Globe nominations for Best Actor in the first movie. And deservedly so. By far the best movie in the franchise. And I think Depp got another golden globe nomination for Dead Man's Chest. But I think it would go: 1. COTBP 2. AWE 3. DMC 4. OTS I think all of them are good, but the fourth one was slightly underwhelming.

[@BurningAshesProductions]

"Now, I've watched this film multiple times, and I still can't tell you exactly what happens next." 💀💀💀

[@OneWingedRose]

If I remember correctly, it's: The pirate lord who Barbosa gives Elizabeth to is under the impression that Elizabeth is Calipso (the sea god). We learn that he actually sympathises with Calipso and thinks that she deserves to be free of the human form she's been imprisoned in, so he treats Elizabeth favourably but... being a man in love with the sea he gets a bit handsy. Then he gets cannoned and gives his piece of eight to Elizabeth hoping she'll be able to use it to free herself (as the 9 pieces of 8 are what trap Calipso in her human form). Hal picks it up from there to say how this means she's a Pirate Lord and she joins the meeting of the other pirate lords. Honestly not that complicated.

[@DJGrice13]

Very good catch-up. I still don't get the confusion. I LOVE these films, and I got it all and still get it today. Dead Man's Chest is still my favourite. I love all the numerous sub-plots.

The 4th one doesn't add anything, and I mean ANYTHING to the franchise, except for Angelica, which is the only character that I'd like to see returning in the 5th film.
