I saw the trailer and it was awesome! Action, drama, adventure!

Don't know if I would go to a special event just to see the trailer before the rest of the world though.. Especially if it was really that cold out there :)

Wow- those are some dedicated fans. I'm from Mass., and I was talking to my mom yesterday and she said it was 15 degrees in the morning, with a high of 39. I was home for Christmas, and it was in the 30s and great...but, anyhoo, I hope they enjoyed the trailer- I agree with empoor- I don't think I would go somewhere just to watch a trailer (granted, it was on the big screen), especially since it would be on TV and online.

The best part of the trailer is the shot of the water running off the end of the world.

I beleive the of that was shot at Niagara Falls and then digitally altered. A fantastic look!

It sure looks like everybody had a great time in Boston despite the cold.

I hope this film is a continued sucsess for the company.

However, now the pressure is on...what will they do next? (live action wise)

"Did anyone come to rescue me simply because they missed me?"

Monkey Jack raises his hand.

That little bit alone cracked me up. I can't wait for Pirates 3.

WEC: I believe their next live action project will be Prince of PErsia and a Jungle Cruise movie.

Jim kind of forgot to mention that besides the freebies and the preview for At World's End that Curse of the Black Pearl was also shown. Which was a nice reminder that there are just some movies that NEED to be seen on a big screen with an audience, and I'm not talking a DVD party at someone's home with a big plasma screen TV. :)

Psh. Representing Pirates of the Caribbean Ultimate Fa Event Miami!

Me and the other 8 people who showed up had a BLAST (ok truth be told there were like 80 people)

I took 2nd place in the costume contest and made friends with the actors who were hired to enterain us. The goodies were cool and I dont care what you say... less than 10,000 people in the country got to check out the trailer, and thats just cool.

AND they showed it TWICE lol. It was such a good time.

True dedication here... we drove 4 hours from Bradenton to Miami for the event. It was great!

Pirates of the Caribbean? There are public record-court color photos comparing the 1994 supernatural pirate movie vs. the 2003 supernatural pirate movie. - it's at www.disneylawsuit.com

Hmmm, no, I don't think they stole it.. It's based upon the same concept, and yes, some shots are the same. But hey, some shots are always the same between different movies. I don't think Ted Elliott & Terry Rossio really got their inspiration from some small indie film, and too little shots are the same to be believable. Don't think the case will stick.

@ greenyskp:

Hahaha! Sounds fun :) And that is true dedication, to drive 4 hours to the event.. But if it was worth it, who cares :P

Woohoo! Thank you, Jeff!

I read this on Thursday and this was the first I had heard of the trailer being released. Thank you for the info and the Yahoo trailer link. Made my day.

Oh, if only I lived on the East Coast...ah, well.
