Pirates of the Caribbean say 'narrr' to Bulgarian airbags The director of the fourth Pirates of the Caribbean outing has decreed that actresses with breast implants will not be welcome to swash their buckles alongside the 100 per cent natural and impressive pirate's chest of Penelope Cruz. Keira Knightley and Orlando Bloom. Pic: Buena Vista Rob Marshall has instructed Los Angeles …
Has it not occurred to you that even Ikea Knightly knows a turkey when she sees one? Maybe, having suddenly learned to act, she has decided she does not need to do this again.

Paris. Because she probably enjoyed it. She seems to enjoy most things.
Don't get me wrong, I like Cruz and think she's an excellent actress, but its always best to stick with the one who brought you to the dance, unless there's a good reason not to. Not having ample breasts ... not such a good reason. :-(
Unless of course they're trying to cut some of the budget and this is the first thing to go.
As to staying true to au natural... thumbs up.
As to inspecting the boobs... hire a sonogram tech for the day w a portable ultrasound. At least its scientific and impartial. Or just offer them free mammograms. ;-)
According to Wikipedia (I know, I know):
"Disney optioned the novel in order to incorporate elements of it into the fourth "Pirates Of The Caribbean" film.
Whether "elements" covers more than pirates and a caribbean setting remains to be seen. Personally I preferred The Anubis Gates, anyway.
Now if someone (NOT Disney) were to adapt Michael Scott Rohan's "Spiral" novels, that could be more interesting fantasy.
But Drawing Of The Dark and Dinner At the Deviants Palace are probably better. However, I've yet to read something by Powers that I didn't like, so I'm probably biased. I doubt that Hollywood will have the courage to film the book, particularly if they have to beat it into a 'Pirates of the C' shape to fit. We'll see, but I'm not hopeful.
They were stretching an idea when they make a movie based on a theme park ride at Disney world. They were really pushing it when they made a sequel, but the third one was terrible. A story that was tenuous and rambling... and now a forth movie just because it makes money.
Why does this remind me of those videos over new years of people running into malls to buy buy buy in the january sales.... a fool and their money.
Didn't seem to kill the James Bond franchise much. And those films had about as much to do with the source material as the PotC series has to do with either Powers *or* the Disney ride did originally, though they rewrote the latter to be more in line.
Much the same can be said for the new Bond materials as well, though.
Particularly if it was actually set in 1950s Southern England. But then they actually used a load of the plot of Moonraker the book for Die Another Day (Graves/Drax, death from the sky, etc). Unfortunately the benzidrine taking might not be PC anymore.
A low key psychological story; IIRC *nothing* in common with the film but an octopus.
Powers' stuff could make for interesting though, I'm actually looking forward to seeing it. By pure coincidence bought the stress of her regard last week for a re-read.
And if you like Powers you might also like December (and others) by Phil Rickman.
Wonder if they'll go full circle and become so bad it comes out the other side? I hope so so they can't make it much worse that the last one.
There's nothing wrong with lasses with unsculpted wobbly bits - there are plenty of lovely real ones about after all, but don't you think after the last instalment they should concentrate more on whether they can act instead? More important still whether the film has a plot and a script...
Also with ref to the 3rd Mummy franchise - Maria Bello was stinkingly awful. Really, really bad, partly due to script but partly to dreadful acting.
The production values were enormous - I admit I never saw the join. There were a few good moments of comedy, but the film was THREE HOURS LONG! A film has to be pretty special if it's going to be over 2 hours, but there was nothing SPECIAL about PotC III and plenty to dislike. There was a plot, but it kept getting lost in the meandering storyline. The longer a film goes on the less I can forgive the bad bits.
I will say one thing. Johnny Depp was better in PotC III than Tim Burton's intriguing, but fail-ful Alice in Wonderland. The Red Queen and the bandersnatch were about the best performances and I never 'got' the cinematography. All cinematographers need to watch The Blues Brothers multiple times. It has the best camera-work I've seen, really adding to the mood of the scene and amplifying the characters.
Finally: the Brits aren't always the bad guys!!!!
