i finally watched "pirates of the caribbean III" on friday and it proves my point about society's take on marriage - elizabeth swann (keira knightly) and will turner (orlando bloom) get married first before they have sex at the end of the film - obviously disney couldn't show them getting it on without a set of marriage vows exchanged first. sure, it was back in the day when sex before marriage was a HUGE no no (compared to it being a small no no, relatively speaking, now) and notice how calypso and davy jones got it on in the past but their relationship ended horribly - perhaps this is a snide reference/commentary to having sex before marriage? perhaps i'm reading too much into this and need to get a life? i think it's a little of both.

OMG, that part of the movie was SO FRICKIN' LAME!!! UGH ;o)
boo marriage. i am not interested in it at all right now. i feel like it's an outdated institution and the state should not be regulating people's relationships. i think right now, i'd only get married if my partner really wanted to.
yo canucks. it's a movie.
you are reading into this too much...or looking for ammo ;)
p.s. didn't they show the 'town who-0res' in the first one?
mr. bing: i know it's a movie, hence my last statement of reading into the film too much and needing to get a life!
CET :op
Mr. Bing -
Your words were 'PERHAPS I am reading into this too much .. etc..'
I was just stating that yes, you were ;)
mr. bing: sho 'nuff - you win. :o)
