Jack Sparrow is here once more for a fourth swashbuckling adventure. After getting his ship back, stealing the heart of Davy Jones and returning from the dead, Sparrow this time is in search of the mystical Fountain of Youth--which for those of you who can't understand literal meanings, gives its finders eternal wrinkle-free skin.
Gore Verbinski, who was behind the previous three (Curse of the Black Pearl, Dead Man's Chest, At World's End) is gone, replaced by Rob Marshall. Also noticeably missing are longtime contributors Orlando Bloom and Keira Knightley--perhaps sick of the corsets and greasy hair. Ian McShane and Penélope Cruz will pick up the slack.
You could substitute scenes from any of the previous chapters into this trailer and only the diehards would know the difference. It's just a lot of Johnny Depp walking around gingerly, speaking in a silly voice while avoiding danger. As long as Depp's around, these stories will almost write themselves. I believe I read a while ago, that two additional installments are already in the works and will be filmed back-to-back.
