    Its out today and of course I will pick it up on the way home from work. BBhas it for $15.99.

    Saw it at the movies and thought it was great. I remember thinking that this is going to be a cool ass DVD. Hope it lives up to my expectations.

    What did everyone else think?

    Heck, I'm gonna get it just for the Johnny Depp commentary alone. Knowing him, I'm sure he'll have some interesting things to say about the movie (that is, assuming he speaks up in the commentary).

    Anyone listen to the Mallrats commentary track? Freaking hilarious. Jay Mewes (otherwise known as Jay) is drunk the entire time and passes out halfway through the film...

    I'll probably buy Pirates, Nemo, and Master and Commander. But that's it for this year. All three were great.

    It is hard to believe that a baby could have risen to the rank of admiral.

    I was a little confused by that too, but I took it as the whole ship was being emptied for the most part. So it didn't really matter. He was in command of an empty ship. Kind of like a last resort militia. If had gotten to the point where their own ship was being taken it would have been a lost cause anyway.

    Last DVD I bought was finding Nemo the day it came out, now I gotta go and grab this one too.

    Pirates of the Carribean was a very good movie.

    The 1985 classic "Young Sherlock Holmes" also makes its appearance on DVD today.

    I never got around to seeing Pirates of the Carribean in the theaters. I'll check it out on video.

    So the children were nobles right? When they serve in the navy they get to be officers. And most rise up to become captain or whatever. So the one that committed suicide never got promoted because he had confidence issues, so he's the same rank as the kids.

    Because that's how it really was back then. One of the interesting things about M&C is its absolute realism. Back then, you didn't become an officer through merit, but through nobility / blood lines. Thus, kids often were ranked above adults.

    BestBuy had a deal today that if you bought Pirates of the Carribean DVD then you can get another DVD for 6 bucks. There was a group of DVDs to choose from.

    Their deal was 2 for $20. I got The POTC and Black hawk down.

    If you order it from deepdiscountdvd.com and use the promo code "usatoday" when you check out, you can get it for $14.31 + free shipping. Of course their free shipping is 5-10 days, so if you just can't wait, you may want to spend a bit more. :)

    That promo code is good for 20% off all purchases. Could be a good time for some of you DVD fanatics to stock up.

    I didn't see this movie at the theatre, I thought it would stink.

    I know I was wrong about my pick, so I bought it on DVD. I haven't got to watch it yet though, I expect a good flick.
