Not diluting Depps' performance, but Geoffrey Rush was amazing in this film as well.. he is the personification of Barbosa.

Rush played Barbossa as perfect as Depp played sparrow

Johnny Depp was born to play Jack Sparrow, the soundtrack for this film is spectacular

Norrington is the true model of gentleman, competent, polite, smart, accomplished. a little smug, but admits when he's beaten, and is not vicious or vindictive to his enemies. and when he realises Elizabeth truly does not feel the same as him, he accepts it and walks away.

Orlando Bloom was so busy during the early 2000's: LOTR, Pirates of the Carribean, Troy, Kingdom of Heaven...

This film was released in 2003, and Fellowship of the Rings in 2001. Hard to believe that they made better films 20+yrs ago than they are today!

Elizabeth burning the rum has traumatized Jack more than anything else in his life 😂

Orlando Blooms first major role was LOTR. Then he rolled right into this franchise. Dude won the lottery.

Johnny Depp confirmed he took some Keith Richards inspiration for Jack's humor. "If I see a civilian, I'll let you know" has the same energy as "I don't have a problem with drugs, I have a problem with the police"

Depp's performance as Jack Sparrow was a creation totally his own. He took inspiration from The Rolling Stones guitarist Keith Richards when he was developing the character (keep that in mind for later), as he felt that pirates were the rockstars of their time. His performance was so unusual and eccentric that it scared the bejeezus out of Disney when they first saw it. But ultimately, the performance was so well received by audiences and critics that it earned Depp an Oscar nomination and became his most iconic role. Jack Sparrow was an original character that didn't appear on the Pirates of the Caribbean ride at Disney, but he was later added to the ride and I've even heard stories of Depp himself showing up at Disney Land to play Jack Sparrow on the ride.

“There’ll be no living with her after this.” This movie is full of quotes that my whole family continues to use to this day.

"Whose side is Jack on?" "At the moment...?" No better way to sum up Jack Sparrow. 🤣

The opening where they give mystery to jack, and then introduce him is a master class. It's literal perfection

The writers of PIRATES 1-3 used to run a screenwriting website and forum for almost 15 years where they gave writing advice and made all their script available for people to read. The two guys are the loveliest dudes and had an amazing pedigree, even though almost nobody really hires them anymore these days. LITTLE KNOWN TRIVIA - the first PIRATES film was actually a heavily reworked pitch for a Spielberg produced (and maybe directed) MONKEY ISLAND film that never got off the ground. Yeah, it almost happened -- Spielberg wanted to do a video game to movie adaptation and was a fan of the game, Lucasfilm was going to make it with Amblin and the two guys who wrote this movie were hired to put together a treatment. When the movie didn't happen, the writers went back and tried to pitch a movie based on the two things that MONKEY ISLAND was based on: the Disneyland ride and the Tim Powers zombie-pirates novel "On Stranger Tides" (which was very very very loosely adapted into the 4th PIRATES movie and not very well). Terry Rossio, one of the writers, even says that Will Turner and Jack Sparrow are basically Guybrush Threepwood split down the middle; they took the character they pitched and just gave half of the qualities to one character and half to another. Barbossa is, very much, LeChuck with the named swapped out in terms of character and dialogue. In PIRATES 2 and 3, more unused MONKEY ISLAND content, scenes and even imagery from the games end up being repurposed into the trilogy (Tia Dalma is obviously the Voodoo Lady for starters).

Ngl the two british soldiers who argue are my favorite reoccurring characters of the franchise

"Why's the rum gone?!!!"😅

That first scene of Jack arriving on port with a sinking ship and yet casually riding it to his desired destination is such a great analogy of who this character is 😂 calm and collected in the most unbelievable of situations, and riding any sinking situation to his desired destination .... Great film 🎥

Why do I feel like these are the BEST reactors for this reaction? I love the Easter eggs and details that you all catch that many other reactors miss, also your knowledge of writers/directors/composers and your view point as writers. Can’t wait for this! ❤

"Oh that medallion is sick.. I want one.." 😂 You don't say..?

The best of all the Pirates films imo, it's got just the right amount of fantasy to reality, and focuses on the piracy and seamanship more than the crazy magical stuff and what have you. If you liked this you'd love Master & Commander

"Ye best start believin' in ghost stories, Miss Turner.... Yer in one!" has been one of my favourite quotes for years. Great line

Hans zimmer on the music you can never go wrong his live performance in prague is just out of this world

I think it's great when reactors are up front about who has and hasn't watched the content they're reacting to. I get pretty miffed when I'm halfway through and then they say something like "I forgot about that" when I thought I was watching a first timer. Thanks for being cool. You're both great.

This movie is based on the ride in Disney Land "Pirates of the Caribbean"... opened in California in 1967. It was the very last attraction that Walt Disney himself envisioned and oversaw construction. But he died just a few months before it opened to the public. The movie is very loosely based on the ride.... the song that Jack Sparrow sings, "A Pirates Life for Me" especially at the very end of the movie, is taken directly from the ride... it is the song that the animatronic pirates sing as the passengers float through the scenery. It is also the first words spoken as the movie opens, when a young "Miss Turner" softly sings... "Yo ho, yo ho, a pirates life for me"... Pirates of the Caribbean opened in Disney World in Florida in 1973. The same ride has opened at other Disney parks around the globe. Disney released two movies that summer on 2003, both based on rides/attractions at the theme parks. "The Haunted Mansion" was a flop of a movie... but "Pirates" was a run away hit. Not bad for a theme park turned movie franchise... Welcome Denise to the adventures of Jack Sparrow and the Black Pearl... AARRGGGG! :)

I love that Jack (sometimes) walks like he’s drunk or tipsy, great physical comedy from depp

YES!!!! POTC!! I would say the same as Johnny Depp/Jack Sparrow says. (Car-i-bea-n.) Pirates back then used to be superstitious, back then to have a woman on board is basically unheard of because the crew would throw woman overboard to not have bad luck. Kierra Knightley was actually 17 when casted and 18-19 when the film was done. Orlando Bloom was doing this film after LOTR- FOTR he was having very busy years. And the doing both sequels of LOTR and POTR at the same time. You can actually freeze frame on the duel between Jack and Will up on the air crossing blades you can actually see Orlandos tattoo on his left wrist written in Elvish. Mythbusters tried that stunt of having a upside ship into water for a pocket of air, and turns out to be plausible if you have bigger boat and less water. You'll find that alot of Jacks lines are improvised because Johhny felt like it was in character to say so. Disney also hated Johnny take on Captain JS being a drunk, they wanted more of honorable pirate hero but Johnny stood by guns and said no a d just wait to see how people reacted to the character, and he was right. If you think about it this curse is the worst part of immortality. What's the point of living forever if you cant enjoy life? 😮

Back when Disney really was still class of the world. This is a prime candidate for the perfect movie; everything about it is just *chef's kiss*!

13:30- My favorite character in the movie is Norington. For his calm and collect demeanor, dry humor, competence and bravery.Thought I doubt there are many other people that share this view.

Geoffrey rush is insane in this franchise

Johnny Depp is such a GREAT actor. He is so skilled. His ability to vary through characters through his years. ABSOLUTELY wonderful....yet shame the pain he goes through with drugs and other people. Dude is an absolute gem.

rumor is, Orlando Bloom, during the shooting of the underwater scene became so disoriented with lack of oxygen, he began speaking elvish from LoTR

Did you know that In this movie you will notice there are actors and sets. A truly wonderful film!

Fun fact, when shooting the upside down underwater boat scene, Orlando Bloom was disoriented from lack of oxygen and started speaking in elvish thinking he was shooting LOTR.

Jack: "You will always remember the day you almost caught Captain Jack Sparrow!" Blacksmith: "Hold my bottle."

Every time you guys post a new video you continue to surprise me with callbacks to films that you guys watch I haven’t seen in a long time and your reactions are always hilarious, genuine and good I find myself rewatching them again as well

The priates who say " 'ello puppet" and "you know nothing from hell" I met years ago! super nice dudes! I've also sailed on the Interceptor ship in the movie. In real life, it's the Lady Washington.

The French verb, parler (pronounced "par-lay") means "to speak". The question, "Parlez-vous Anglais?" means, "Do you speak English?". To "parler" with someone means to have an official conversation with someone, or in the Pirate Code, to have an official negotiation with the captain. Incidentally, there is a social media app called "Parler", but everyone pronounces it wrong. When you consider the origin and etymology of the word, it's actually a clever name for an app designed to allow people to "speak" to the social realm.

Its crazy how the mid 2000s had some of the best stories, best acting, and best CGI. Pirates, LOTR, transformers, harry potter, star wars. So many classics

So stoked you're starting this series!

By the way, the reason the pirates were able to recover all of the treasure is that the curse allowed them to track it, at least when it touches the ocean. As seen when Elizabeth falls into the water. Possibly the curse even encourages and assists in the recovery (see - wind changing to bring the Pearl into port rapidly). It may even have been responsible for the attack on Will's ship as a child - they felt the call of the medallion.

Pirates is one of those movie franchises that can and will never be remade….Another example is Jaws. Harry Potter, Back to the future. Lord of the rings…When you penetrate the pop culture like that it becomes very hard to even imagine someone else coming in and doing it all over again.

Nice Johnny Depp story. There was a boy who was dying. He _loved_ pirates, in particular, Jack Sparrow. Johnny Depp, as Cap'n Jack, called Kori and so made his day. His story made it around the innerwebz with the help of many KZfaq channels who started fundraisers, since the family wasn't well-off. People also sent so many gifts that Kori eventually started sending them to other kids in need (with everyone's blessing). The boy's channel is "Kraken The Box". He was always so generous with his channel updates and expressing gratitude for what he did have, and his mom was always by his side. She's a wonderful woman. You're missed Kori. (Edited to remove repeated sentence. Oops.)

As a kid Elizabeth was fascinated by pirates, that’s why she knew about parley 😊 Also all the POTC movies have end credit scenes!

I only watch when both of you haven't seen the movie. But this is one of the best movies ever.

Yes! This is a fun and epic film franchise! Originally Steven Spielberg was going to direct the film, but was too busy working on MINORITY REPORT and Catch Me If You Can, both released in 2002 Hugh Jackman, Michael Keaton, Steve Martin, Harrison Ford, Jim Carrey, Matthew McConaughey, Robert DeNiro Christopher Walken, and Cary Elwes were considered for Jack Sparrow. Amanda Bynes, Jaimie Alexander and Jessica Alba were considered for Elizabeth Swann. Christian Bale, Tobey Maguire, Ben Peyton, and Chris Masterson were considered for Will Turner. Tom Wilkinson RIP and Sylvester McCoy of Doctor Who fame were considered for Governor Swann.

the fact that johnny depp got his first oscar nomination for this film still kills me. so well-deserved and such a robbery.

That pirate pair you guys loved; Pintel & Ragetti actually had a pretty cool backstory given to them that wasn't mentioned in the movies. Ragetti's (the one with the wooden eye) mother was a prostitute and Pintel's (the bald one) sister, making him Ragetti's uncle. Before the mother died, she made her brother promise to take care of her son, which is why the two are always seen together.

"This is the day you will always remember as the day you almost caught Captain Jack Sparrow" Captain of The cursed Black Pearl

33:47 this line is just brilliant. It actually makes you feel for the villain, and the delivery by Jeffrey Rush was absolutely incredible.

A lot of movies have a McGuffin. But I just noticed how this movie makes use of its McGuffin really well. They keep coming back to the medallion and the treasure chest and use it for a plot twist of Jack intentionally taking the curse on himself at a good time. And then them using it as a surprise resolve to the Jack and Barbosa sword fight. It's very creative writing.

One of my all time favorites. Watched it so many times I've notice new things many times over. Like the way Capt Jack walks on land and how he walks on ship. He walks as if it's his first time walking on land, but on ship he walks perfectly normal.

This movie gives me a lot of Princess Bride vibes. The great fight choreography, the witty banter, the great music... Great classics of swashbuckling action!

Don't forget to watch the post credit scene of each film!!!

Every casting in Pirates of the Caribbean is perfect seriously

Commodore Norrington to me has always been the most underrated and underappreciated characters in this trilogy. Especially as the movies go on. Honestly my favourite character.

Geoffry Rush is the best on screen pirate in any movie. I'm SO here for this, buckle up, Denise!

I love that Depp modeled a lot of his mannerisms as "Jack Sparrow" after Keith Richards! 😂😂😂 That genius played so well into the future films! My favorite ride at DisneyWorld was always "POTC". AWESOME REACTION GUYS! ❤❤

When I hear the theme from Pirates of the Caribbean I can only see Maximus in the Coleseum. I find it so funny that Hans Zimmer used this exact theme once before in a big movie and thought "hmm, people have not appreciated it enough, let's try it again"

"I'm disinclined to acquiesce to your request" became part of my vocabulary for the better of the early 2000's because of this movie.

No crying, all fun and games, until the final movie 🙌🏼

Jack Sparrows first Scene is THE BEST Charackter Introduction ever made on Film 😂👌

Man this trilogy was the last time Disney's budget made sense as these sets and visuals hold up so well compared to the last decade of Disney content.

Best reactions in KZfaq! The length fits like a ring to a finger 🔥

I'm sure everyone knows, but, just in case... On the first day of shooting, when Depp started acting...the director called "cut" and pulled Depp aside and asked him, "What the hell are you doing? You're supposed to be a pirate" Depp said, "Give me to the end of the day. If you don't like it, I'll make a new character" (I've also seen interviews where Depp said 3 days) By the end of the day, the director told Depp, "Ok, I get it." The movie never would have been so good if Depp had been, "Arrrr, matey...there she blows." (Traditional pirate)

Ah this trilogy is so much fun 😊 my only gripe with the first one is the corset scenes… the more I get to know dress history of the time (which was 1600/1700‘s) the more I have come to realise that what she would have been wearing wasn’t even called a corset, but a stays. And it wouldn’t have been near that restrictive as they are depicting it in the movie. Its main job was to support not only the bust but also the heavy skirt layers, its not until much later in the 1800’s that tight lacing becomes a real issue with the rich ladies of the time… In my own headcanon it is the medallion that causes her to have a difficulty of breathing, not the stays. I know it’s not a perfect headcanon but it helps me getting through those scenes 😅

in Deadpool 2 when Domino say her power is "Luck" Jack Sparrow was the first thing i thought of

Fun Fact, there's a scene after Jack admits to Elizabeth that his grand escape was drinking for 3 days and waiting for help where she ask him if there's any truth to his legend or is he a complete fraud. Jack shows her his scars and the Pirate brand and they bond over the Pirate song that she sang in the beginning of the movie. It's one of those scenes that I wish they didn't remove, cause it keeps Jack vulnerable and adds to his character even if it demystified him for a bit.

"Hang in there!" 1:04:53 Pretty sure that is what is happening... 🤣

KLAUSE BADELT'S AMAZING SCORE BEFORE HANS ZIMMER DECIDED TO TAKE CREDIT FOR IT.

You guys have quickly become my favorite movie reactors. You understand what goes on on screen, even the smaller nuances, and always have a good laugh.

“Stop blowing holes in my ship!” Gets me every time and I don’t know why. I just think it’s one of the more clever lines in the film. Also, still can’t believe the Academy decided to nominate Depp for Best Actor. Ones of the more wild and out of no where noms

I love this channel so much. You two are up for an adventure to the Caribbean sea. Anyways thank you for watching this, its my favourite.

So happy Jonny won his case in court the man deserves nothing but good things.

Legitimately one of my all time favorite movies, such a classic it’s incredible

Depp was Nomanated for Best Actor at the Oscars for this role. Pretty rare for this kind of movie.

@4:16 “He’s a miniature pirate just like she’s a miniature woman.” 🤣

Jacks Opening Scene with the fantastic Soundtrack is one of the best Intros ever It’s my favourite Pirates of The Caribbean Movie ❤

Not only a phenomenal movie, but also one of the very best movie trilogies! Don't sleep on parts 2 & 3! 🏴‍☠♥

Not sure if you guys noticed or if its been mentioned yet. But at 10:56 after the medallion resonates in the water you can see the clouds above form a hand and start reaching out towards them as well as the wind! One of my favorite little details!

The soundtrack of Gladiator was so good, Hans Zimmer used it for this film, too. 😂

2003 Was one of the best years in cinema. Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl, The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King, Master and Commander: The Far Side of the World, Underworld, and The Last Samurai. Absolutely incredible.

So, heres a bit of trivia I've learned through a number of ladies that work in making costumes for Ren Fairs and do research into period clothing. A properly fitted and made Corset is actually no more restrictive than a modern day Bra. I emphasize "properly made and fitted" here. The reason corsets have a reputation for being tight is two fold. One is laziness on the part of production companies. For a corset to be properly fitted, it needs be custom made to fit the exact body shape of the intended wearer. Production companies are often unable or unwilling to spend the extra money to properly fit the actress into the dress, often leading to them being too small. Second part comes from misuse in more modern times. Tightlacing was never really the intended use, and didn't really come around until closer to the World Wars. The best part of all of this? According to Keira Knightley herself, the corset in the film was actually _too big_ and they had to.... uh.... push them around to make it look right, and they eventually gave up and went "Good Enough." 😂

Can you believe that Keira Knightely was only 17 years old when they started filming this? Orlando Bloom was 25, so her mother had to be present during the kissing scenes. Great reaction! ✌️

I’ve always appreciated that Barbosa knows the difference between a medallion and a coin.

Funfact: When Michael Eisner the boss of Disney at the time saw Depps performance he wanted to shut that thing down. Depp basically said "fck it" played it anyways..then it was too late to stop and created and iconic role and made Eisner Millions of Dollars..that Executives for ya

As much as I was super stoked to see you guys watch this…the second film is the one that I am most excited to see you guys react to honestly! It’s one of those rare times that the middle film of a trilogy is my absolute favorite and I know that I am not alone in that regard for sure! I just can’t freaking wait to see her reaction in particular…especially when it comes to Jones’s character and of course his absolutely jaw dropping cgi that is still amazing to behold ffs!! So please…imma need that reaction like, IMMEDIATELY my dudes! 😅😉👍

"Hang in there"! As he is hanging. perfect. lol

The fencing was choreographed by industry legend Bob Anderson, who also choreographed movies like Highlander, The Princess Bride, Star Wars, Lord of the Rings, and the Mask of Zorro. As a choreographer myself, I've always admired his style. Especially the Princess Bride, one of the most entertaining duels in cinema, for my money :)

Fun fact: if you rewatch the film, notice that Geoffrey Rush is pretty much always on the left side of the screen when we he shares a shot with one of the other leads. Director Gore Verbinski said that Rush specifically asked if things could be staged this way because he knew that people tend to read an image from left to right, and being on the left would be the only way he’d actually be seen when sharing the screen with Johnny Depp, Keira Knightley or Orlando Bloom! Also, at the time POTC came out, pirate films were seen as box office poison (the last big-budget pirate movie, Cutthroat Island, had bankrupt an entire studio!), so what was Disney doing, making a pirate film based on a damn theme park ride?! Were they mad? And what was Johnny Depp, an actor mostly known for offbeat or independent movies, doing as the main star? It had disaster written all over it… but everyone was forgetting one very important thing... he’s Captain Jack Sparrow!

I’m glad J. Depp was nominated for an Oscar for this, but so disappointed that he didn’t win.

Pirates of the Caribbean is my favorite franchise, and for my last concert at my school, we played the soundtrack or min songs of this movie. It was definitely very fun and easy to play and hearing the soundtrack brings me back to those fun times!

Another one of my favorite movies - such a shame we sadly will not get more of these. I would put this up with - The Mummy (1999) and the mummy returns. Just a perfect cast.

12:05: You got to hear the background to this line. "One good deed is not enough to redeem a man of a lifetime of wickedness." "o it seems enough to condemn him." (the good deed). Watch the deleted scenes, search term: "jack sparrow deleted scene just good business". This dialog line is important: "We had a deal, Jack. I contracted you to deliver cargo on my behalf, you chose to liberate it." "People aren't cargo mate". Ever since he freed the slaves of his trade ship, he has that "P" branded onto his arm. Another line hits heavy: "Your good deed cost me, Jack." "And you have spared me any possibility of ending up as anything but what I am. And for that, I truly thank you." There is a lot of background story of Jack in that scene, I really recommend watching it.

I love how alive the populated sets feel. It breathes life into this world. The port, the town, Tortuga--there's so many details in the set design and extras busy at work!

The interceptor in this movie is a real ship called the lady Washington, it goes up and down the Puget Sound and as far south down the west coast is California. People can take tours of it and there’s actually a full-time crew that lives on the ship.

I remember when I saw this in theatre back then. Goosebumps at the last sword fight, I still remember vividly. I went to see this with my dad, who has now passed. Wow, memories! The first one remains my favourite, I don't quite enjoy the other ones as much.

The original trilogy of Pirates movies is flawless they are some of my favorite movies of all time. I can't wait for you guys to watch the next two films.

I detail i just noticed is that every pirate who dies after the curse is broken smiles as they die. I always knew Barbosa did but the rest, even on the ship. They can finally feel and though the feel pain and the chill of death. Its enough to die happy.

Disney executives were initially concerned that Johnny Depp's portrayal of Captain Jack Sparrow would negatively impact the film. They considered cancelling the film or removing Depp from the role due to their dissatisfaction with his performance. I'm very glad they didn't.
