Pirates of the Caribbean is one of those franchises that seemed to have randomly fallen off a cliff. After the first film in the franchise, Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl, hit, the series seemed to have real promise. Unfortunately, fans seemed to like the films less and less as it worked its way through Dead Mans Chest and At Worlds End. However, despite this seemingly declining interest, Disney went forward with a fourth film, On Stranger Tides. While the film didnt perform very well in North America, it more than made up for it overseas, and still managed to crack $1 billion at the worldwide box office. <\/p>\n
But after the success of On Stranger Tides, conversation around a sequel kind of dried up. Perhaps it was Disney reading the signs that the franchise needed a bit of a break, or perhaps it was simply a matter of getting the script where it needed to be. Either way, it would be over six years until wed be getting another Pirates movie. <\/p>\n
Even after all this time, the prospect has admittedly been met with an underwhelming enthusiasm from fans. While many enjoyed the initial films, it seemed to have overstayed its welcome. But Disney has had a great track record in the past five-plus years, and in that time, theyve managed to produce mostly good films, much to the surprise of the entire industry. Perhaps the upcoming Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Men Tell No Tales would be worth watching after all. The first teaser and Super Bowl spot were both pretty solid, but would it hold up with a Jack Sparrow-filled trailer? <\/p>\n
You be the judge. <\/p>\n
