(Honestly, how long do you think it'll be before tremendous pain is promised to those who use 'oi-be har-har' pirate speak in their posts? Days at most, I reckon.)
Which means that we must seize the opportunity while we can! Er... Arrr!

Oh, you had the Hidalgo preview too, eh? You're absolutely right. I was more impressed than I expected to be. And The Last Samurai? We didn't get a preview of it, but --
Pity about it starring Tom Cruise though.
-- my sentiments exactly. I am certain I will have to see it regardless of the fact that Cruise is in it.

It never met a pirate cliche it couldn't steal, it never goes for one sidelong reference to past greats of the genre when it could go for three, and its cast devours entire fleets of scenery.
That's perfect. I love your description, and your review, which is much more coherent than I could hope for myself. ^_^
