Just rewatched the original Pirates of the Caribbean trilogy (1-3) for the first time since I was kid. And they were just as good as I remember them to be.

I kind of expected them to fall flat, assuming they hadn’t aged well since their original release and considering the low RT ratings of the second two films. But there’s a lot of charm, wit, and character in all three, and they’re really satisfying all together consecutively. Thoughts?

Ps. I don’t plan on bothering with the two follow up films — they were directed by someone else and they look like they belong in the straight-to-DVD sequels category with Little Mermaid 2 and Kronk’s New Groove, etc.
