Third "Pirates" Flick Has an Apocalyptic Title
by Scott Weinberg | April 07, 2006
Discuss Article
ComingSoon.net got word from an employee of a UK Disney store that the new title for Pirates of the Caribbean 3 has been chosen. It's actually a title that we hardcore Pirates freaks heard about a few months ago ... but now we (reportedly) have the true scoop. The third Pirates flick, following The Curse of the Black Pearl and this summer's Dead Man's Chest, will be called...

...Pirates of the Caribbean: World's End, which one can only assume is the spot on the map that remains undiscovered, the area where charted waters disappear and sailors are forced to deal with the, well, the world's end. According to maritine legend, the world's end is where you'll find all sorts of giant monsters and devious dangers. Sounds like fun.



But first we still have Dead Man's Chest to look forward to, which opens on July 7th and features the return of the insane Captain Jack Sparrow (Johnny Depp), the dashing Will Turner (Orlando Bloom), the lovely Elizabeth Swann (Keira Knightley) ... and a whole bunch of returnees from PotC1.

Worlds End... you think it sounds cool? It's one dimensional and sounds cheesy. The other two are Curse of the Back Pearl and Dead Man's Chest. They at least have something to do with with Pirates. But World's End just gives it nothing. No sort of flavor the other two names are giving.

It's just so... cheesy. And I'd think Gore knew better then that. I am praying for a new title.

By the sound of it they don't mean apocolypse, four horsemen, amrageddon, etc when they say "World's End", they mean that they're sailing across to the "end" or edge of the world which actually is somewhat relevant.

I think it works, and if that's really what the film is about, it will be pretty tight. I can hardly wait for the 2nd one.

July 7th! I can't wait! Then, only 1 more year for the third. Why does the title matter that much, its still the same movie no matter what the name is.

Shouldn't they wait and see how 2 does at the box-office before deciding on a 3?? Hollywood sequels are generally cursed!~~~

they filmed both sequels at the same time.

...besides, with the money the first one made, I don't think it is in too much danger of bombing.
The first one deserved all of the money it earned. I can't wait for this one, and the one next year as well!!
