Why is the rum always gone?
I'm taking a break from the alphabet this week in honor of the release of Pirates of the Caribbean: At World's End tonight (yes, I'm going, d'oh!)! Without further ado, here are
Thirteen Quotes I love from the Pirates of the Caribbean movies
13. Elizabeth: Captain Barbossa , I am here to negotiate the cessation of hostilities against Port Royal. Barbossa: There are a lot of long words in there, Miss; we're naught but humble pirates. What is it that you want? Elizabeth: I want you to leave and never come back. Barbossa: I'm disinclined to acquiesce to your request. Means "no".
12. Barbossa: First, your return to shore was not part of our negotiations nor our agreement so I must do nothing. And secondly, you must be a pirate for the pirate's code to apply and you're not. And thirdly, the code is more what you'd call "guidelines" than actual rules. Welcome aboard the Black Pearl, Miss Turner .
11. Pintel: [opens door of the closet] 'Ello, Poppet.
10. Will Turner: You cheated. Jack Sparrow: Pirate.
9. Barbossa: For too long I've been parched of thirst and unable to quench it. Too long I've been starving to death and haven't died. I feel nothing. Not the wind on my face nor the spray of the sea. Nor the warmth of a woman's flesh. [steps into moonlight becoming a skeleton] You best start believing in ghost stories Miss Turner. You're in one.
8. Barbossa: You're off the edge of the map, mate. Here there be monsters.
7. Jack Sparrow: Now... bring me that horizon. [humming] "And really bad eggs." Drink up me 'earties. Yo ho. [snaps compass shut]
6. Jack Sparrow: We are very much alike, you and I, I and you... us. Elizabeth Swann: Oh. Except for a sense of honor and decency and a moral center. And personal hygiene. Jack Sparrow: [Sniffs his armpit and looks back] Trifles.
5. Tia Dalma: Would you do it? Hm? What would you... Hm? What would any of you be willing to do, hm? Would you sail to the ends of the Earth and beyond to fetch back witty Jack and him precious Pearl?
4. Elizabeth Swann: There will come a moment when you will have a chance to show it. To do the right thing. Jack Sparrow: I love those moments. I like to wave at them as they pass by.
3. Jack Sparrow: 'Ello, beastie. [smiles and draws his sword]
2. Tia Dalma: The compass you bartered from me it cannot lead you to this? Jack Sparrow: Maybe. Why? Tia Dalma: Ah, Jack Sparrow does not know what he wants.
1. Will Turner: What vexes all men? Tia Dalma: What, indeed. Gibbs: Well, the sea! Pintel: Sums! Ragetti: The dichotomy of good and evil. Jack Sparrow: A woman.

I have a terrible confession to make! Love Johnny Depp/Love Jack Sparrow character/ HATE THOSE MOVIES. I know, it's crazy.
I love these movies ... adore Johnny Depp and lust longingly over Orlando Bloom (though not as much as I do over his LOTR character) hope you have a great time.
Mama Kelly
WooHoo. Do I go tomorrow without my hubby or be a good girl and wait on him to come home so we can see it at the really, really good theater?? Oh the rough questions in life...
I am so excited about the movie! Can't wait to see it!! Great list!
You have 27 people who have read this already and IT IS NOT THURSDAY YET!
Great list and happy "Sparrow" watching this weekend!
#6 - LOL! I've only seen the first one, but I really liked it - Johnny Depp, Orlando Bloom... what's not to like? :-)
They are all so good... I think this one is my favorite cause it is funny.
6. Jack Sparrow: We are very much alike, you and I, I and you... us. Elizabeth Swann: Oh. Except for a sense of honor and decency and a moral center. And personal hygiene. Jack Sparrow: [Sniffs his armpit and looks back] Trifles.
and this one too!
4. Elizabeth Swann: There will come a moment when you will have a chance to show it. To do the right thing. Jack Sparrow: I love those moments. I like to wave at them as they pass by.
I love #10!!! AS you know I love Johnny, and I'm going to see POC on Friday too!! Can't wait!
Pirates opened here today and I can't go! :(
Is it just coincidence that the Jack Sparrow edition is #69?
Ah, #10. My personal favorite.
You'll have to tell us how 3 is -- I can't go until Saturday at the earliest *grumble*
Next Thursday I am getting back to doing TT.
I knew you would be going nuts about the movie coming out. Do you have the first ticket for the first showing of the movie?
O.M.G......
you already know how much i loooovvveee this! Great quotes - had me snorting coffee...again.
This one looks good. Loved the first, hated the second. Love Johnny Depp and Orlando Bloom.
Let us know how the movie is!
I love #11! My friends and I are obsessed with being British and picked up on that nickname quickly! I even asked my History professor in college what it meant (he is British).
Yes Walt had grown! I noticed that too!
Love #10. Enjoy the movie; I can't wait to see it!
Michele sends me today!
Johnny Depp is perfect for his role. But then again, he's great at just about every role.
what fun! #10 and #13 are my favorites in the list. I can't wait to see the third movie.
Lovelovelove those movies. We're going on Sunday and I can't wait. I get all tingly thinking about it. ; )
I can't wait to see the movie :-) Thanks for the quotes.
I cannot wait until Saturday afternoon when we go to see this! Should be great fun!!!
As my parents were searching for a name for the kitty you saw I suggested Jack Sparrow because of the eye patch...but they named him Nino, too bad, I thought he would have made another cute Jack Sparrow :)
I think I have the same picture in my TT post too!! Mine is about the 13 summer blockbusters I'm anxious to see. Pirates just happens to be number 1!! (Hide the rum!)
You reminded me of all the scenes very vividly! I love her accent - the voodoo lady! Omgosh ~ it's tonight!! :-D I can't wati till my chance to see it! :D
I tagged you if you get a chance sometime on linky love!
Hard to go wrong with Pirates of the Caribean. You've got great leads who are clearly having fun but not too much fun. A great cast of supporting actors - many of whom anyone growing up in the UK in the 70s or 80s will remember from childrens TV. And in the latest film my favourite actor from Asia Chow Yun Fat. I'm looking forward to seeing it too.
You forgot the bestest quote of all:
"Ok. But why is all the rum gone?"
So jealous! :) These movies are quite quotable though...maybe not as quotable as Ghostbusters, but then, what is? ("Next time someone asks you if you're a god, say YES!")
For some reason these make me think in an English accent.
Is O next? or was it P?
