What's a pirate's favorite letter? Arrrrrr.

Yesterday was a nice easy Saturday--I couldn't sleep for an hour before my alarm went off, because we were going to see a matinee of Dead Man's Chest around the time I am occasionally just wandering out of my room for breakfast, and I could not sleep in and make us late! Casey, Kirk and I went to see it at Menlo. and then we malled for a few hours and I got Nana vol. 3 and an introductory book on making wire jewelry, which I've wanted to do for ages. Next paycheck I'll actually go get the supplies. But on to the main subject--PIRATES!

There were some problems, to be sure--the pacing felt a little off, and compared to the first movie, there were fewer scenes with just the characters bouncing off each other, probably because so much happened that a lot of the time it was rushrushrush. This one also lacked the element of surprise at the sheer awesomeness of Captain Jack that the first one had. So yeah, not perfect, but I think it got better as it went, and the flaws did not take away from the many MANY moments of FABULOUS.
