I loved his interpretation and I think that's what made it such a big success.   8-)

I thought The Black Pearl was entertaining but the subsequent movies were awful.
There is no opinion, however absurd, which men will not readily embrace as soon as they can be brought to the conviction that it is readily adopted.

I agree, Gill, the original was by far the best.

I quite enjoyed them all - shame he repeated the character in films like Alice in Wonderland... p**s poor.

Haven't seen that.  Didn't appeal.

it wasn't bad... a nice continuation in a way, I saw it in 3D and the 3D was rather poor, as it wasn't recorded with 3D imaging. Oh well, probably better on a normal screen though
