| Pirates of the Caribbean : 5 of 5 | |

 At last, I've watched all the DVDs I got for Christmas! I saved Pirates of the Caribbean for last because it was still pretty fresh in my mind from the theater, so I wanted to build the anticipation by waiting. It was worth the wait! I really enjoyed watching the movie and seeing all the details again, plus even more things from the ride at Disneyland (like the dunking of the major in Tortuga!). The bonus material was fantastic, too - I learned so many interesting things! The fort at Port Royal was built at Marineland (now closed), a park that I remember visiting as a kid, and the Interceptor was a real ship that they actually sailed for 40 days from Long Beach to St. Vincent for the filming! There are some nice deleted scenes (mainly longer cuts of existing scenes), and some neat "Fly on the Set" video showing the film makers in action. Best of all, though, is a long segment from 1968 about the making of the attraction at Disneyland, with a complete ride-through! Yo ho! (There are some other computer-based features on the disc, but only for PC, which means I'll have to watch those when I upgrade someday.)
