>pirates of the Caribbean was never good, everything you hate about the later ones is present in the first one
>>214195778Bullshit, the main problems with the later films mostly stem from pacing issues which the original (and even its sequel) didn't have.
>>214195778https://youtu.be/lZMfe4qnoKU?t=50well, not like he's wrong
Never trust a man with Keir Starmer physiognomy.

>>214195778I don't hate the later ones with the exception of 5I don't even hate part 4
So untrue. There is a night and day difference between the first and the second just in terms of dialogue. The second is proto-Marvel with the quipification out the ass
>>214195931the sequels had the same problem the matrix sequels had where 2+3 had just over a single movie's worth of story and most of it was backloaded in part 3 so part 2 ends up having an hour's worth of set pieces that look cool but don't move the story along in the slightest and just slow it downhonestly I'm surprised someone hasn't done a fan edit of Pirates 2+3 into a single 3 or 4 hour movie, same with the Matrix sequels
>>214195778one of the rare times this idiot was correct
>>214195778The first potc film wasn't a "garlic milkshake"
>>214195778But anon i don't hate it.
>>214196028Starmer has done devastating damage to the credibility of a massive phenotypical population of anglo men. Even retroactively.
>>214195778I like Mark Kermode. I disagree with him on a plenty but his documentary on Exorcist 3 was fun. I like watching his movie reviews, ten minutes -ish in and out. Sex and the City 2 review is always the best:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uHeQeHstrsc
>>214195778It was good in the first few but it got old.
>>214195778I agree with him in many things, but I don't get his POTC hatred. He did a "Kermode on Film" podcast about them somewhat (last 5 years?) recently and his co-host managed to convince him they aren't that bad.
>everything you hate about the later ones is present in the first oneThe sequels were a bloated mess the exact opposite of the original, pajeet.
>>214195778But I don't hate the later ones?
>>214196001Fun rant. I like Mayo reading the paper and leaving during the rant.
>>214195778It could just be me but it feels like he's a lot softer nowadays. He particularly walks on eggshells when it comes to capeshit or anything with a fanbase, and when he does criticize, it feels much more apologetic or he hedges a lot. Could just be old and tired though
3+ felt so dragged out, where 1 and 2 did not
>>214196861Another stand-out is his Jason Statham impersonation:https://youtu.be/ooPdPYZpR2s?t=141
