2011 should be an interesting summer for movies.
Pirate’s 4?! Really? Even Johnny Depp owned up to the last 2 films being crappy. What possible reason would he have to do another one other than for a huge paycheck? My respect for him as an actor has now diminished considerably.
I actually think the fourth film could end up being significantly better than the third. With a brand new storyline, it probably won’t be as much of a convoluted mess and could turn out to be a fun adventure similar to the first film. And it will be without the tiring Will/Elizabeth romance, which became really annoying by the third film.
I believe part two of “Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows” is also scheduled for a summer 2011 release.
Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part Two is scheduled for a July 2011 release. Those mentioned in this article focus on a May 2011 release.
