Hosts Mat Bradley-Tschirgi and William Thrasher discuss Pirates of the Caribbean: At World's End. Captain Hector Barbossa (Geoffrey Rush) takes a crew of pirates to rescue Captain Jack Sparrow (Johnny Depp) from a bizarre underworld. Now in possession of Davey Jones' (Bill Nighy) heart, the East India Trading Company uses his tentacled help to start their final assault to get of pirates once and for all.

Finishing up the half dozen plot threads from Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest, this third film in the series has a more confident story and pace. A concept of Pirate Lords from around the globe helps freshen up the franchise, as does a large scale battle between pirate ships in the midst of a supernatural storm.

Mat enjoys the cinematography and deliberate pacing of Unbreakable, the first film in M. Night Shyamalan's superhero trilogy. Thrasher was amused by Mighty Orbots, a short-lived animated Transformers knock-off from the 1980s.

The next few movie series we'll be covering are:

Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides (2011)
Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Men Tell No Tales (2017)
The Fugitive (1993)
U.S. Marshals (1998)
