POTC3

Saw POTC3 on Saturday and will have a long, rambling review eventually, I'm sure. I forgot to bring the stuff to take notes this time.

However, one thing must be said right now:

THAT REFERENCE TO CUTTLEFISH WAS PUT THERE JUST FOR MEEEEEEEEEEE!!

It was a little wrong, b/c they're only cannibalistic if you starve them and they're given no other choice, otherwise they socialize in tanks just fine, but OMG! Captain Jack Sparrow talked about cuttlefish and they put that in the film for ME. *loves and hugs and squeezes and calls it George*

Mostly liked the film, though I have issues. But seriously, after the cuttlefish ref and the "Actually, it's a cephalopod" from Ragetti, they could've done so much worse and I'd have walked out happy.

Actually, it's a cephalopod."

I actually laughed out loud when he said that because I was thinking of you and how much you'd love it. And then when Jack talked about cuttlefish, I about died at the thought of another Casta reference.

I haven't written my review yet, but I did know that I was going to reference the inadvertent Casta references. :D

When I saw it, I was totally thinking "That reference to cuttlefish was put in there just for [livejournal.com profile] castalianspring!" Yay!

I almost giggled when Jack started talking about cuttlefish. I knew you'd enjoy that part.

None of us liked the ending much, but on the whole - yay!

I nearly squealed out loud. Shannon shushed me a few times, the brat.

Please do! Did you see the film yet? I want to hear your reactions :)

Yes! My boyfriend and I took my dad to see it yesterday. I heard all sorts of bad stuff about it, and got the impression that it wouldnt be that great. Will admit that I was pleasantly surprised that the 3.5 hours went by so siftly without getting bored or noticing random things meant only to keep the audience's attention. The part (theres actually two that come sharply to mind) that displeased me.. how much can I say without divulging too much to those who have yet to see it?

Haha, me too! Thanks.

LOL! You needed to squeal since that part was obviously written just for you. Heck I never would have heard of cuttlefish if it wasn't for you.
