Whooot! Behind the Scenes!!

[dwgm]

Reports are coming in that plans are in the works to film PotC 5 & 6 back to back in the not-too-distant future, and aletheiafelinea, captaintish, and ladywarringford all posted about this spoilery Behind-the-Scenes video...

And porridgebird posted one of these last night, reminding me that the folks at the depp_fans_over_30 Yahoo Group had three different pics from the Vanity Fair spread saved on their site...
















ETA: Looking about here, it seems that depp_daily posted those Vanity Fair pix a couple of days ago. I am really falling behind with everything since the birth of my little grandson, lol!

I've only seen Blow once, but I remember being unimpressed with the Depp/Cruz chemistry. However, I can see it more in the little we've seen of PotC4, and I do have great hopes for the movie.

I suspect we can all rest assured that between Disney and JD (not to mention #5 and 6 on the horizon), the "romantic" aspect will be left ambiguous enough to leave everyone involved with enough room to work in our fantasies, in whatever shape, form or fashion they might be.

It's not ambiguity I worry about. That's fine. It's the whole tone of the relationships romantic and otherwise. I think the first trilogy went from what we saw as a celebration of friendship and romance -- flowering in spite of initial mistrust and difficult circumstances -- to something that reflected an underlying cynicism about relationships, romantic and otherwise, a cynicism that seemed unresolved by the end of the third movie. But I doubt if TPTB see that as a problem since they made so much money on the second two movies. The trouble is, I don't think they would have if it hadn't been for that first movie, with its better balance of edginess and hope.
