Woodtick to appear in Pirates 3 19 Feb, 2007, 18:02 / 6 comments


Everyone has pointed out the Monkey Island similarities in the first two Pirates of the Caribbean movies. The latest one had scenes you'd swear were live action renditions of classic MI moments, such as Jack Sparrow using a coffin as a rowboat, or Sparrow's crew arriving at The International House of Mojo, I mean, Tia Dalma's shack in the swamp.

It looks like the third and final Pirates film will have its share of MI locations as well. This concept art for the movie shows a "town made up of ship parts." Who do they think they're fooling? It looks like they're going to dramatize Captain Marley's whirlpool mishap while they're at it.

Check out some more neato concept art at the bottom of the page.


Edit: Oh, and if you like ruining movies before you see them read this article, which says that at some point Captain Jack will use a cannon to blast himself to another ship. (The existence of a cooking pot helmet remains unknown.) Also apparently the Woodtick location is called "Shipwreck Cove."

    Sorry, but I've come to realise that "plagiarism" is bullshit.

    I don't think anyone honestly believes that any of this actually came from the MI games. It's just fun to think so.

    Apparently World of MI made this observation weeks ago. However...

    yea, but the pictures were removed after rabbid attacks from the Disney judicial axis of evil.. wonder hoe long it'll take them this time.

    someone must've had their contacts out when they painted the rack on Kiera Knightley.
    still, it reminds me a loot of the scumm bar though ...
