I thought given the time of that movie, they could have saved the subtle gestures & just spelled it out for everyone.

Well I got the foreshadowing right away, but I realize that some people don't. I don't know how many movies there have been where I didn't see the "shocking twist" coming early on and it seemed everyone else did.

I waited for DMC on DVD, so I already knew not to expect too much. Because of this, I was able to just enjoy the movie for its entertainment value. I can't wait for AWE to come out! I'm really curious about what really happened to Jack (seeing as how he's in the third movie).

Well I was completely floored by Barbossa at the end - never saw it coming! Later, when I was on my disney board reading about PotC-DMC, (sorry I can't type DMC without wanting to put "Run" in front of it

) people were on there with all sorts of tidbits that I missed (like seeing Barbossa's boots at Tia's, the locket at Tia's that matched the music box on the FD, that matched the lock on the chest...) all kinds of stuff. But then, I figured these are people that honestly probably sat through the movie taking notes the whole time. I literally was so shocked at the ending that I had to post on here (and there) to find out what Barbossa had even said.

I was hopeless in the Sixth Sense - never saw it coming.

What is the website? I liked the movie but can't help but feel like I have missed a lot of info!

I liked it better than the second movie. I wasn't a huge fan of the ending but it had to happen. It definitely left it open for a 4th if they want to make another one.

I liked better then the second one too. And stay after the credits it gives an extra sceen.

I wish we had stayed last night. Can you PM what was in the "bonus" scene? I think after sitting through the credits after Shrek 3 with nothing, we weren't going to do that again!

That's exactly why we didn't stick around. We waited during Shrek and got nothing! I know we'll see it again so I'll see the scene at some point.
