Pirates Of The Caribbean Dead Man's Chest Behind The Scenes

After the surprise success of the Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl, Director Gore Verbinski and the entire cast of the first film returned for the first sequel, Dead Man’s Chest. The decade and-a-half old production provided tons of wild stunts, pioneering practical and visual effects, and a bunch of unforeseen challenges and setbacks.
Returning stars Keira Knightley, Orlando Bloom, Jack Davenport, and Jack Sparrow himself, Johnny Depp, give candid sound bites about all aspects of the shoot, as well as provide hilarious bloopers. Orlando Bloom went for a spin in a big wheel and a bone cage, and Keira Knightley was able to flex her skills with a sword for the first time in the franchise. Cast newcomer Bill Nighy is also featured for his work portraying the villainous big bad and seafaring legend, Davy Jones.
John Knoll and his team at Industrial Light & Magic get the spotlight as well when the break down the Davy Jones cgi, and their groundbreaking approach to motion capture when it came to bringing the tentacle-faced Flying Dutchman captain to the screen. Special effects played a big role in other parts of the production too, most notably with Davy Jones’ terrifying pet, the Kraken. With the combination of real effects they performed on set and the work the VFX team did in postproduction, the crew was able to have the monster interact with people on the ship, and even take down an entire ship.

I hope they do and it completely bombs just so Disney realizes the biggest fucking mistake they've ever made since they screwed over Robin Williams in the Aladdin debacle. Whoever sat around the conference table and said hey, let's dump one of our biggest money making actors before the trial ends and we know if he's innocent or not....should be fired. Even more reason for the jury to come back and say he wins so Disney has egg on their face.

Still one of my favorite movies to this day! Seen it over a hundred times! So much work was put into making this film possible & I admire that

[@michaelsmiley15]

A lot of people don't understand is when you're filming on locations particularly ones that are in the middle of nowhere you have to bring a whole catering staff along with you because it's not just the actors it's the whole Crew that have to be fed so it's very very expensive but in a long run it's worth this is one area that you cannot skimp on

[@jfk8540]

i agree, one of the things that makes these movies special is that they are (mostly) filmed on location and not green screen. also using the actual ships might have been a nightmare but it adds so much authenticity and immersion to the movies when you feel like YOURE on an actual boat with the characters (through the camera). it must be a nightmare in many respects but filming on location for any movie will make it feel more real.

[@AccountRemoved101]

Verbinski's tale telling is incredible. Directing an entire trilogy which is still famous for it's humor, graphical effects, and storyline is difficult. He did it fabulously. So did the actors with their portrayal of their characters. It's such a shame they replaced him for the last two.
