Well said here...<i>Legion</i> is much better than <i>Priest</i>.<br /><br />Well said here about all the "forced unnatural movement" of pirate movies. And this <i>Pirates</i> is full of motion involving group sword fights that go on and on and make you want to cry, "Stop!"Richard Bellamyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12397053921647421425noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7704583061723470804.post-78943930383287377752011-05-21T02:20:30.620-04:002011-05-21T02:20:30.620-04:00Thanks, Hokahey, for your support and comments.

Given that I kind of liked Bettany's <i>Legion</i> movie, I really should see this one.<br /><br />The Pirate movies tend to really bother me (although I liked the first one). All of that forced unnatural movement. In terms of plot, they do not progress so much as twitch in one place. I hope to write a review sometime this weekend if I can.The Film Doctor https://www.blogger.com/profile/03073505923746994988noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7704583061723470804.post-80613273629835981882011-05-20T21:05:48.821-04:002011-05-20T21:05:48.821-04:00Congratulations, FilmDr. I've appreciated your...Congratulations, FilmDr. I've appreciated your support over the last two and a half years, and I always enjoy how we rush out to see movies like <i>Thor</i> and <i>Paranormal Activity 2</i> on opening weekend* and exchange reactions. I really enjoy your humorous posts. Keep it up!<br /><br />*Speaking of which, I saw <i>Priest</i> last weekend, and the only thing notable about it was that the plot parallels <i>The Searchers</i>: two men search for girl abducted by wild vampires; the Priest wants to kill her if she's infected, but the boy friend is there to stop him if he tries. Also, it takes place in a desert wasteland with frontier outposts that get attacked by the vampires.<br /><br />And I just got back from seeing <i>PIrates</i>. Some fun, lighthearted, way too much sword fighting, but the mermaids are well worth seeing.Richard Bellamyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12397053921647421425noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7704583061723470804.post-49613153248276656402011-05-20T06:59:42.375-04:002011-05-20T06:59:42.375-04:00Thanks, Jason.Thanks, Jason.The Film Doctor https://www.blogger.com/profile/03073505923746994988noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7704583061723470804.post-65385726700850251762011-05-19T21:42:17.467-04:002011-05-19T21:42:17.467-04:00Happy third, man!

Your reviews are top-notch, and mine try. <br /><br />Thanks, brittp and Just Call Me Alice.<br /><br />Thanks, bd. I have a hard time feeling inspired right now with that ghastly Disney Pirate franchise arriving tomorrow. I reviewed <i>Pirates of the Caribbean</i> 2 and 3 for a newspaper, and still I wonder, why do people return to that frenetic demented swill. Do they even remember the last two films? Are they expecting something better?The Film Doctor https://www.blogger.com/profile/03073505923746994988noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7704583061723470804.post-46565834214455823482011-05-19T19:31:06.105-04:002011-05-19T19:31:06.105-04:00Congratulations!
