    Pirate theme getting worse

    Yeah, we can't expect TIC to put as much effort into Pirates as Star Wars or City.

    Pirate theme getting worse

    I think 2015 Pirates is better than we give it credit for, especially the minifigs, but still it wasn't great. Hopefully if LEGO make Pirates of the Caribbean sets next year they'll put more effort into designing them as they tend to do this with new licensed themes.

    LEGO Pirate Photography

    I'm kinda new to any kind of photography, so any advice would be great. Duel by ~Ben Stansfield~, on Flickr Message in a Bottle by ~Ben Stansfield~, on Flickr Point of view of a Redccoat by ~Ben Stansfield~, on Flickr I got blutack marks on my camera for that last one.

    General MOC-Discussion, WIP-Help, and Teaser Thread

    Shouldn't this be merged with the General MOC-Discussion, WIP-Help, and Teaser Thread?
  5. I hate it when people do that, especially with such an amazing set as 10210. I already have it, but sadly it was a scam. I'm gonna sell mine, though, as I simply do not have the space to store it, which is a shame.

    Cover him in bananas and put him in a cage with a monkey.

    Use him as mermaid bait, perhaps?

    It sounded like he was confirming new sets. How's this for a punishment?

    Pirates of the Caribbean 5

    Good to know Marty and Jack survived. And I didn't mean sunk, I meant bottleified.

    Pirates of the Caribbean 5

    Agreed. I am actually now rewatching OST, and it's growing on me the second time I watch it.

    Pirates of the Caribbean 5

    I always found the supernatural elements to be the weaker links, especially in the third and fourth films. Curse of the Black Pearl and Dead Man's Chest both incorporated it nicely into the plot, but in At Worlds End all the crap about Tia Dalma being Calypso and then growing fifty feet tall kinda distracts you from the plot and, as she does nothing but turn into loads of crabs and a storm, is completely pointless. In On Stranger Tides it isn't as bad, but does Blackbeard really need to be able to control his ship with his sword? Because he uses those ropes to stop the mutiny, we missed out on what could've been a great scene of Blackbeard fighting the mutineers.

    Pirates of the Caribbean 5

    I've seen sources saying it'll focus on Jack and sources saying it'll focus on Will and his son (one of these being Orlando Bloom). I'm hoping it'll be somewhere in between.

    Pirates of the Caribbean 5

    I forgot to mention the Pearl not being there. There weren't even any ship battles as the only ships were the Queen Anne's Revenge and Barbossa's ship, which were never in the same place at the same time. It seems they manage to get the Pearl out of that bottle, but who's going to crew it? When it sunk, was Barbossa the only survivor, or did Pintel, Ragetti, Marty, Cotton and the others all make it? Well, Kiera Knightley has said she's done with the franchise, so Elizabeth will not be returning for Dead Men Tell No Tales, but there are rumours that the film will be centered around Will's relationship with his son, Henry. (I always thought their son was called William Turner III)

    Pirates of the Caribbean 5

    For me, DMC was always the best, followed by Curse Of The Black Pearl. OST just didn't quite have the same feel as the original trilogy, and the lack of all but three of the original cast made it less of a Pirates of the Caribbean movie and more of a pirate movie with Jack Sparrow in. At least, that's my opinion.

    Well, OST was terrible, but they still made sets for that, so we have some hope.

    Your First Pirate Set!

    I got a large box of bricks, sets and minifigs from a friend of my parents and in that was Harbour Sentry, along with some pirate parts, weapons and 'figs, but the first sets I bought were Shipwreck Defense and Soldiers Fort, both from the 2015 line.
  21. Good find. They've already sold two of them, hopefully nobody else will fall for it.
  22. I'm not going to buy as I already own 10210, I just saw this and wondered why it's so cheap.
  23. Look at this http://www.ebay.com/itm/LEGO-10210-Imperial-Flagship-Brand-NEW-in-Factory-Sealed-Box-1664-pcs-EXCELLENT-/302039874652 Somebody is either crazy or super eager to get rid of these.
