My adult son went to the movies last week and saw 'The Benchwarmers'.
It stars:
Rob Schneider     ....      Gus     
David Spade     ....      Richie     
Jon Heder     ....      Clark     
Jon Lovitz     ....      Mel     
Craig Kilborn     ....      Jerry     
Molly Sims     ....      Liz     
Tim Meadows     ....      Wayne     
Nick Swardson     ....      Howie     
Erinn Bartlett     ....      Salad Girl/Sarah     
Amaury Nolasco     ....      Carlos     
Bill Romanowski     ....      Karl     
Sean Salisbury     ....      Brad     
Matt Weinberg     ....      Kyle     
John Farley     ....      Swimmer Boy     
Reggie Jackson     ....      As Himself     

it is produced by Adam Sandler's company.  Jon Lovitz plays a multi millionaire (just like in Las Vegas). David Spade in his best role (apart from Dicky Roberts). Very enjoyable with a nice message.

Superman Returns opens nationally in Aus tomorrow (29/06/06)... so excited!

They've said it's going to be good AND besides The Matrix this was the biggest Hollywood blockbuster to be made in Aus so that’s at least a reason on it's own to go see it.

To be honest the trailers haven't really suckered me in but I still wanna go and see what all the hype is about ... I hope it doesn't disappoint!  

Oh my looooooooooooooooooooooord! I'm hanging on for dear life to see this movie!      

It took me (stupidly) forever to actually see "Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl" but after hearing all the hype about it and having a boring sunday arvo with nothing to do I finally watched it! From the moment I heard that entrancing ‘yo..ho..yo..ho' I WAS HOOKED!! From the second I saw Johnny.D working the black eyeliner - I was in love!  

I caught the teaser for the 2nd a few months ago and FINALLY it’s only a week away from opening!!! (opens the 06/07/06).

If you haven’t yet caught a sneak of what I’m on about – do yourself a favour!!

http://www.apple.com/trailers/disney/piratesofthecaribbeandeadmanschest/teaser_sm.html

Just read a review on Rotten Tomatoes about it and it's all good.  Can't wait to see it - I hear Keef may turn up in the third but the 2nd and 3rd were shot back to back.  Really hope it's not just a rumour.

http://www.rottentomatoes.com/m/pirates_of_the_caribbean_dead_mans_chest/

2nd and 3rd??

so there'll be a THIRD?!!

oh yeah.. oh yeah!!!

I still haven't seen this but word on the street is that it's too slow .. to cheesy... so on and so on.

oh well they tried.

I've heard that if you haven't seen the original Superman movies with Christopher Reeve then this movie will be confusing for you. Such a shame the Writers decided to do it this way.

I saw it today and you really don't need to see the first two.  It's pretty straightforward, over-overlong (2 1/2 hours) and because of that a touch tedious.  Kevin Spacey is great as Lex but the poreless chap that plays Superman (Brandon someone) is as dull as dishwater but then Superman was always a bit of a wet blanket.  Christopher Reeve is still the definitive Superman.  Anyway, that's what I thought of it.

Quoted from lurveit

I still haven't seen this but word on the street is that it's too slow .. to cheesy... so on and so on...

Perhaps that's why my stepson slept through it

I loved it- probably my fave comic book to film adaptation now(actually seen it twice ). The opening credits with the font similar to the 1978 film was awsome(if you have seen both films you will know what I am talking about).

Johnny Depp has said he will act in as many 'Pirates' movies as they care to make! I love him. My daughter, 29, used to have posters of him all around her room as a teenager. He was in 21 Jump Street at the time. I'm waiting for school holidays to end so I can go to the Cinemas and see this movie.

Pirates of the Carribean: Dead Man's Chest

A blockbuster worth watching for the flair with which the cast plunge into the action.
Genre
Action, Adventure
Run Time
150 minutes
Rated
PG
Country
United States
Director
Gore Verbinski
Actors
Johnny Depp, Orlando Bloom, Keira Knightley, Stellan Skarsgard, Bill Nighy, Jack Davenport, Kevin R. McNally, Jonathan Pryce

LURKING under several million dollars' worth of digital effects in Gore Verbinski's Pirates of the Caribbean sequel is a sadly missed opportunity.

I'm talking about the film's arch villain, the spectral buccaneer Davy Jones - captain of the ghost ship the Flying Dutchman and Ruler of the Ocean Depths.

Condemned to a waterlogged form of eternal damnation, Captain Jones has been partly transformed into an octopus. His washed-out countenance is encircled by waving arms, and a pulsing membrane has colonised the back of his neck.

It wasn't until the credits rolled that I realised that somewhere within this convincing computer-generated cephalopod was the British comic actor Bill Nighy.

Fans of Nighy's jaded old rock'n'roller from Love Actually will understand how cheated I felt. Special effects buffs won't - which is fine. But they should know what they're missing in having his face hidden.

If ever an actor was equipped to convey the infinite world-weariness you'd expect to find in a member of the undead, he's the one. And worse, we lose the chance of watching his brand of high camp shape up to the equally elevated variety displayed by Johnny Depp's celebrated antihero, Captain Jack Sparrow.

Sparrow, too, is a mistake. The name, I mean. If we're going to stick with the bird analogy, Depp's creation is something between peacock and bowerbird. He has acknowledged Keith Richards as his chief inspiration. Captain Jack's addled grace, his tipsy eye-rolling, his beads, rings, plaitings and piercings are all borrowed from Richards. But the mincing walk is pure drag queen, and the foppishness is less Richards than Jagger. The sense of fun, however, is Depp's own work, and it's still keeping the series afloat.

Despite Nighy's effacement, Pirates is one of the most human of blockbusters, and its crew of supporting players, with their blistered skin, mossy teeth and uncertain command of dry land, are still worth watching for the flair with which they plunge into the action.

The least of the film's attractions - or worries - is the plot. Davy Jones and the Flying Dutchman are loosely cobbled together. We also get a spectacular add-on in the form of the kraken, the giant squid of 12th-century Norwegian mythology, which is recruited to play the part of Captain Jones's pet, popping up regularly to embrace a ship and sweep it to the ocean floor.

For Sparrow's ship, the Black Pearl, things are tough. And that's not all. It's also being pursued by the East India Trading Company, depicted as a greedy multinational out to rid the seas of happy-go-lucky freelancers like Jack so it can go on committing its 18th-century version of white-collar crime without interference.

A sneering Tom Hollander is the company officer, and caught in his machinations are the heroic lovers, Will Turner (Orlando Bloom) and Elizabeth Swann (Keira Knightley). Blandness, however, is a far more serious threat to these two. They're still pretty and pretty dull - even though she gets to handle a sword and he's awarded his own subplot.

His estranged father - played by a barnacle-encrusted Stellan Skarsgard - turns up among the Flying Dutchman's crew of lost souls and Will, ever ambitious, decides he's going to liberate him from the undead world.

The computer-generated stuff has a seductively moody sense of solidity. Verbinski ( The Ring, The Mexican) has always had a talent for putting life's shady side on screen, and the Flying Dutchman, with its sinister overlay of seaweed and heavy mildew, is a magnificently gloomy creation. So, too, are the mouldy mermen who make up its crew. And the stunts have the wicked ingenuity of the most exuberant slapstick, with much sword-waving but next to no connection between cold steel and warm flesh.

It's not so much of a tale of derring-do as derring-don't-want-to - especially when it comes to Jack, who is always eager to avoid a fight. This is probably because the effort of remaining upright under the influence of whatever he's just imbibed takes all the physical co-ordination he can muster.

The film's main flaw is its running time. At 21/2 hours it's straining the friendship. And no doubt the next sequel, which has been in part-production alongside this one, will be along soon, packed with yet more computerised miracles.

Rumours that Keith Richards is to appear in the role of Captain Jack's father have been confirmed, so it's to be hoped he doesn't get the Nighy treatment, too.

Keith Richards may star in Pirates film
Wednesday Jul 5 06:13 AEST

Rolling Stones guitarist Keith Richards looks set to play Johnny Depp's father in the third Pirates of the Caribbean film, a fitting role for the man upon whom the American actor based his character Jack Sparrow.

"We're all looking forward to the idea of Keith coming in and doing a cameo and it's looking very, very good," Depp told reporters on Tuesday, the day after Pirates of the Caribbean: Dean Man's Chest, the second film in the franchise, had its London premiere.

"The one thing is you just never say it's definite until, for me, the guy steps on the set and the cameras are rolling, but it's certainly something I'd be excited about," the 43-year-old added.
Depp won his first Oscar nomination for his portrayal of Captain Jack in Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl, the first in the lucrative Walt Disney Co series that earned $US654 million ($A882.17 million) in worldwide box office receipts.
The movie database IMDb lists Richards in the cast of the third Pirates film due to be released in 2007, although the rocker's London publicist could not be reached for comment.

Richards, 62, is currently preparing to resume touring having suffered a head injury after reportedly falling from a palm tree while on holiday in Fiji.

Orlando Bloom, who stars alongside Depp in the film, referred to the incident on Tuesday, saying he would love to see Richards play the role, before adding: "Well, if he doesn't kill himself falling out of a coconut tree."

'Pirates' plunders box office
Monday Jul 10 07:06 AEST

Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest raked in a lot of doubloons at North American theaters over the weekend, making a record $132 million in its first three days, according to studio estimates.

Walt Disney Co.'s adventure sequel, starring Johnny Depp as the flamboyant Captain Jack Sparrow, surpassed industry expectations of an opening in the $100 million range. The previous three-day record of $115 million was set by Spider-Man in May 2002.

The Pirates haul of $55.5 million during its first day of release on Friday also set a record for single-day sales, beating the $50 million earned on a Thursday in May 2005 by Star Wars: Episode III Revenge of the Sith.

Pirates played strongly across all age groups, Disney said. The studio said people were buying tickets for multiple screenings on the same day.

By contrast, 2003's Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl opened with $46.8 million, and ended up with $305 million domestically. Both films were directed by Gore Verbinski. Also returning to the cast were British actors Keira Knightley and Orlando Bloom. A third film is scheduled for release next year.

As has been the case this summer, there was a wide disconnect between critics and consumers. A New York Times review said the film "batters you with novelty and works so hard to top itself that exhaustion sets in long before the second hour is over."

Superman Returns slipped to No. 2, making $21.9 million in its second weekend and taking the Man of Steel's 12-day tally to $141.7 million. Distributor Warner Bros. Pictures, a unit of Time Warner Inc., said it expected the movie to reach $200 million.

The two film franchises helped the overall box office post higher year-on-year sales for an eighth consecutive weekend, according to tracking firm Exhibitor Relations. The top 12 films earned $206.5 million, the sort of figure usually reached during a four-day holiday.

Rounding out this weekend's top five were Twentieth Century Fox's fashion industry satire The Devil Wears Prada with $15.8 million; Columbia Pictures' Adam Sandler comedy Click with $12 million; and Disney's Pixar-produced cartoon Cars with $10.3 million.

Love his eccentricities, love him. He is sooo clever, underappreciated, and now very French. I'll be off in a week or so to see it. When all the school holidays are finished.

Interesting...

Rolling Stones guitarist Keith Richards confirmed Monday what everybody already knew: He will join Johnny Depp in the next "Pirates of the Caribbean" film. Richards will play the father to Captain Jack Sparrow in the third film, "Pirates of the Caribbean: At World's End."


... he's so perfect for the role! lurve it!!

I could of posted this in the Celebrity thread BUT thought since we are on a Johnny Depp bender I would put it here.

The Exotic Appeal of Johnny Depp

It's time to praise Johnny Depp. And examine how he's become such a big star while apparently not wanting it ... at least on the evidence of the roles he's chosen over the years.

Depp has never been as big a star as Tom Cruise (whose role he reputedly turned down in Interview with the Vampire) or Brad Pitt (whose role he turned down in Thelma & Louise).

Until the first Pirates of the Caribbean, he was always one of those actors who didn't seem to crave stardom. Instead of an action flick or a surefire commercial hit, he chose Jim Jarmusch's Dead Man and Sally Potter's The Man Who Cried.

He had a reputation for being a talented maverick who was more interested in being a character actor than a lead.

True, he looked like a star and had a gossip column romantic life with the likes of Winona Ryder and Kate Moss. But his choices - both in his roles and how he played them - always seemed bold.

Sometime bold gets you trouble in Hollywood. Bold can be director Ang Lee making Hulk a grown-up movie.

But when Depp went that way to play Captain Jack Sparrow in Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl, he created one of recent cinema's most endearing heroes - a strangely fey, tottering, comical pirate. That role has now paid off in a big way.

The first Pirates took $25.4 million in Australia. The sequel had the biggest opening since the final Star Wars with a very handsome $11.2 million last weekend.

Depp's appeal goes well beyond androgynous good looks and charm. As well as being equally good at romance, comedy and heartfelt drama, he's prepared to risk looking ridiculous and, unlike some Hollywood stars, effeminate to make a character memorable.

So what are Johnny Depp's best performances? Here are my top five ...

5. Cry-Baby (1990)
It's hard leaving out Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, Dead Man, What's Eating Gilbert Grape, Finding Neverland, Donnie Brasco, Ed Wood, Blow, Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas and others ... especially for a pretty crappy movie. But Cry-Baby revealed Depp's comic talent and screen presence as juvenile delinquent "Cry-Baby" Walker.

4. Chocolat (2000)
Depp shone as the gypsy Roux in this strangely entertaining romance. With what one critic described as a whisky brogue, he had a relaxed charm that won hearts and suited the movie perfectly.

3. Edward Scissorhands (1990)
One of Depp's five movies so far with director Tim Burton. What's not to love about his portrayal of a lonely and gentle young man with scissors for fingers?

2. Before Night Falls (2000)
Some stars would have run a mile from a supporting role in a drama about a gay Cuban writer. But Depp memorably played both a sexually manipulative prison guard and a tottering transexual with an interesting way of smuggling documents out of prison.

1. Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl (2003)
Captain Jack Sparrow earned Depp his first Oscar nomination (his second was for Finding Neverland). The genius was the adventurous decision, especially in a Disney-Jerry Bruckheimer movie based on a theme park ride, to base a pirate captain on rock star Keith Richards.

Why is Johnny Depp so appealling on screen? Do you agree about his five best roles? And do you have a favourite moment from one of his movies?

that's 46 Movies/TV shows/Voice acting roles since 1984. 21 years! This guy is a prolific actor.

is it just me or does johnny depp look scarily like micheal jackson in that pic buy suzi. and in willy wonka.
my friend thinks so as well.
:S

lol....yeah when Johnny Depp played Willy Wonka...he looked like MJ. I agree with you there.

I didn't/don't see the similarity myself. Johnny, like Michael Jackson, is quite unique and they broke the mold after each of them were created (separately). I don't think Johnny has had ANY surgery whereas I don't think there is anything of the Original Michael Jackson left (on the outside at any rate). heheh

I agree with suzi .. I dont know what you girls (dara n music) are on about they look nothin alike when depp did wonka!    

My kids (29 and 21) went to see this movie on Friday. Daughter (29) has loved Johnny Depp since she saw him on 21 Jump Street. She owns many of his movies. She laughed so hard in this movie, she said, more than in the first one. She and my son thought this movie was great.

This looks hilarious!!!

I love Kate Hudson movies so I know I'll love this but so can't wait to get to the cinemas for this one!

http://www.apple.com/trailers/universal/youmeanddupree/trailer_small.html

Another awesome movie out at the moment. I'm not that hooked but i'm sure it'd have its moments.

This today....

Does Pirates of the Caribbean deserve all this success?

Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest has had three terrific weeks at the Australian box office.

Last weekend, its takings reached $28.8 million. Even after a 48 per cent fall from the previous weekend, the action-comedy had a very healthy screen average of $7,600.

That means, in only 18 days, it has ...

* Overtaken the original Pirates of the Caribbean ($25.5 million).

* Overtaken The Da Vinci Code ($27 million) as the highest-grossing movie released this year.

* Blown away Superman Returns ($12.8 million in one more week).

Overseas, the movie has been performing spectacularly.

* In North America, it has grossed $US322 million ($425 million), which makes it the fastest movie to pass $US300 million. That mark took just 16 days. If it reaches $US400 million, which now seems possible, it would be the seventh highest-grossing movie in that market.

* Around the world, it has taken $US543 million ($717 million), which already puts it inside the top 40 all-time grossing movies with plenty of tickets still to sell.

Now that it's been widely seen - selling close to 3 million tickets here - it's time to ask whether the Pirates sequel deserves all this success.

Yes, it's a rip-roaring adventure. As Captain Jack Sparrow, Johnny Depp could do with more screen time but is still very appealling. The rolling wheel action sequence is great fun. The visual effects are spectacular. It feels like a cinema experience rather than something we should wait for on DVD.

But now that it's a runaway success, let's step back and compare it with, say, the Harry Potter, Lord of the Rings, Shrek and Spider-Man movies.

Against those standards, the plot of the Pirates sequel is too complicated, it's too long at 150 minutes and director Gore Verbinski could have done more to make the young lovers, played by Keira Knightley and Orlando Bloom, more appealling this time round.

My least favourite feature is the ending. You might remember the outcry when Back to the Future Part II offered a weak ending that set up the third instalment? Viewers felt cheated.

There is a touch of that in the Pirates sequel, leaving us dangling for the third movie next May.

What the sequel's success shows are two things. Despite the competition from DVDs and piracy, we'll still go to cinemas for a good experience. And there is huge goodwill from the first Pirates. Now that was a great movie.

The people that I personally know who have seen it, absolutely loved it.

I found it boring, frankly. I went to see it with our entire year 8 grade, and nearly fell asleep. Number one was so much better, it was actually funny. Johnny Depp looked hot though. =P

Welcome xDeadlyxButt3rflyx, what a mouthful that name is! So Bathurst... how warm is it today? I come from around there originally (Cowra) and lived in Orange for two years. Where I am now is wet and humid. The Sunshine Coast Queensland is not living up to it's name! Welcome to our friendly boards where quite a few people are under eighteen as well as us older members. Cheers Suzi

Hey! Thanks! I have to say, this is an awsome site! I don't know exactly how warm it is today, but it's pretty cold! There's sun, but it's really bad weather! Especially when I have to go to school [not today, though, practicing for my Australia's Got Talent audition]. The last few days have been rainy, too. I wish i lived up in QLD! One word- BEACH! =P.

Hi Db! (your names too long )
So you are in yr 8? cool im in yr 10!
welcome
ps im in brisbane warm

Hey!
Yes, I'm in year 8! I'd love to be in year 10, you're lucky! We have to do Science, Mathematics and PE until year 11. I can't wait to drop them. I hate PE. It's so pointless for me. When am I ever going to need the skills to kick a ball when i want to be a singer?
It's freezing here! I have to wear a dressing gown over my clothes through the day at home, even when we have the heating on. It's horrible.

Ohh cool! Nah trust me stay in year 8 it's way easier. I have to pick senior subjects now and I don't even know what I want to be! Oh wow sucked in we chose 2 subjects for yr 9, I picked drama and art.. and in year 10 we picked 8, I did web writers, programming, environmental studies, accelerated science 2 semesters, robotics, who wants to be a millionaire and law. Our year 11/12 subjects are boring though, well the ones that give you an OP are and I need an op to go to uni..
PS- We have to do maths for all of yr 8-12! I'm doind maths a year ahead at the moment but my dad wantsme to do maths c next year as well but I think too boring maths is dull...
pps- yea im glad i dropped pe , it was fun though, bludge!

oh that sounds really cold does it snow?

Yes I liked it! I'm not usually a fan of sport related movies, but I was surprised with Benchwamers! Jon Heder is hilarious. Very funny movie. Hope it comes out on DVD soon!

I watched it. It's interesting, but not really that great in my opinion.

I still need to find a time to watch Superman Returns before it's off cinemas.

I have to say I really liked Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest. And thanks to Channel Seven to refresh my memory of The Curse of the Black Pearl.

After watching the movie, I bought Pirates Remixed - EP from iTunes Music Store. Still love the music

Disclaimer: link to iTunes Music Store is direct link, non-affiliated.

It is amazing how well this film is still doing at the Box Office here In Aust, when you look at Movie Marshal.Com and the figures for the week ending August 06th and the top 10:





After 5 weeks it is still romping in the dollars and almost 34 million in 5 weeks is amazing, long way to go to catch Titanic and Shrek 2 (needs another 24/20 million or so), however it is sill going real well considering those were Christmas Holiday time releases (as was Lord Of The Rings).

I watched this last week. Wasn't bad but wasn't great either...lets say a good B grade comedy

Had some good moments in there, especially the shark incident!

And of course, Uma in a superhero uniform...mmmmm!
