Take the first Pirates of the Caribbean film, add a dash of 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea and a lot more rum. Shake well and you'll have something resembling Dead Man's Chest, a bombastic sequel that's enjoyable as long as you don't think too hard about it. The film opens with the interrupted wedding of Will Turner (Orlando Bloom) and Elizabeth Swann (Keira Knightley), both of whom are arrested for aiding in the escape of Captain Jack Sparrow (Johnny Depp) in the first film. Their freedom can only be obtained by getting Captain Jack's compass, which is linked to a key that's linked to a chest belonging to Davy Jones, an undead pirate with a tentacle face and in possession of a lot of people's souls. If you're already confused, don't worry--plot is definitely not the... Learn More

I recently watched this film, and came to the conclusion that I really need to read the book. The movie seemed rushed to me and a bit overly acted out by such great actors.
Being an African American woman, I study my history a lot, and that includes all of African American historical regions as well as the Caribbean. I found in this film, many of the facts to be rushed and not explicated well; the reasons behind the ideas and beliefs of the Gen de Colour Libre...reasons that I know vary from family to family.
It also did not explain well why Anna Bella was considered "Black" as opposed to Creole. I know the reason, but I'm sure most people do not.

I remember, as a kid, the second series was cool because of all the neat creatures the character of Maya would change into; boy, was I so easy to entertain back then? Now, looking at series two, I wince at the changes Anderson made to the series. Gone was Barry Morse, who added a very human element to the experience of Moonbase Alpha. Gone was the dark, command center. Gone was the tension even trying to survive against uncertain odds in space. What replaced all this? Gaucho skirts, more make-up and more action violence in the series. Adding Catherine Schell and skirting all the females was an obvious attempt to sex up the series. Good stories were now sacrificed for gratuitous fisticuffs. Now Moonbase Alpha has become a love boat of joking and good vibrations, not to mention cheesier set...

If you're gonna quibble over which season is best, then Shatner's right - GET A LIFE!
I also saw this great series as a kid - in the 70s, before Star Wars, all we had was this, reruns of Trek, the Avengers & the Prisoner. Notice how most sci-fi needs at least 1 Brit (or at least a European) to give it some class - just a side thought...
As a kid, I liked the 2nd season - as an adult I like them both. The 1st season is a little darker in tone but I don't agree it was more 'adult' - just darker and less action-packed. As an adult, I see that it was more existential in tone, usually pitting Koenig against his crew. As a kid, this was a bit disturbing seeing how easily his crew turned against him, but as an adult, this does make the 1st season seem more realistic....
