PIRATES OF THE CARRIBEAN: ON STRANGER TIDES Trailer - 'Is That It'?

By Matt Holmes / June 25, 2011

A few days ago I asked my OWF colleagues to come up with a number of films they were most anticipating for 2011 and at the time of writing there's 41 films listed with no place for Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides. And upon viewing the trailer, I doubt that situation is going to change today. Briefly - we very much enjoyed the first film but found the convoluted and messy sequels to be highly problematic, uninspired and that worst cinematic crime of all - boring. Which is exactly the reaction we have to the trailer for the inexplicable fourth roll of the Pirates dice.You can sum up our whole reaction to the trailer at this mark. Thanks Johnny. Let's hope they play better attached to prints of Tron Legacy from Friday. In any event, surely it should have been easy for Disney to debut their trailers in glorious Apple Quicktime? Why would this be a problem for them? The film will set sail on May 20, 2011 in 3D! Any positives? Ian McShane looks pretty cool as Blackbeard...
