Watching the first and second installment of the Pirate of the Caribbean and looking forward to the third one....it sounds exciting.

I would LOVE to see the third Pirates movie...but the gods seem to be against it. Mai Tai and I were set to see it at the El Capitan on Friday...but our Craigslist connection flaked out. And the El Capitan Pirates showings are sold out for THREE DAYS. So we thought, surely the Disney movie theatre in Downtown Disney will have 20 or more showings, since it is a Disney movie...zippo...they were sold out all day too. So, we'll see it when we get back to the Bay Area and things have died down a bit...hopefully.

I saw that place when I was down in Southern Calif over the weekend. I was thinking that it might have replaced Medieval Times in Buena Park. But it's actually right next to Medieval times, less than one block, really close to Knott's Berry Farm. I think it used to be called Wild Bill's or something like that, basically the Wild West version of Medieval Times. The building still looked semi western styled, but repainted into something more nautical or pirate themed, whatever that may be.

Since this is The OFFICIAL Pirate Thread I thought I'd make sure all the other UNOFFICIAL pirate threads were linked here, you know to make them all OFFICIAL-like...

Gee, how did we get along without this thread?

A friend of mine went there for dinner and was sorely dissapointed. He said it wasn't even cheesy-good. I was hoping it would at least have a campy feel to it, but he squashed all hopes for that. bummer!! IF you go, let us know becuase I'm still curious!

Thanks for linking all the pirate threads Haole'akamai...there is some great information in all of those (I've surfed them before).
Good luck with that digital camera Ben.....I still can't figure mine out. The funny thing is....they put pictures on the dials to make it easier to use....but I can't remember what the pictures stand for and can't frikken see em cause they are too small. I read an article once about how to be an expert with a digital camera and the bottom line was....you need to have your buttons all memorized so that you don't need to look at them, you should be able to move them to the right locations by touch memory. ARRRRRRGH!!!
