...inventors of Chicken Run.

Well, I know now that I will be seeing this movie. Mainly because it has Chicken Run on the box and my mother adores Chicken Run and will thus make the whole family see this movie. Not a bad thing, of course. I quite liked Chicken Run myself.

Maybe they will find a ring that is greater or equal value to the Midas diamond.

Maybe not the greatest excuse but the name change may be because apparently the movie has been adapted from the first two books.. and not just the first book titled The Pirates! In an Adventure with Scientists The second book actually has two titles one for the US and one for the UK to further confuse matters.

I do not love the band of misfits title but I do not hate it either... I can live with the compromise.

also here are the worldwide release dates.

Behind the scenes video... I LOVE the way this movie is looking....

aaaaannnnndd.... Blood Island? Not the same one.. but doesnt it look like Guybrush would fit right in walking around down there?

Makes sense, marketing a product to improve hygiene to people who like pirates. Pirates aren't exactly known for good hygiene.

I saw it last week with some friends. It was pretty awesome. Not least because it had davey t in it. And blogs island was awesome. By which I man blood island, but the predictive keyboard says otherwise. I loved the pirate naming system, especially the surprisingly curvaceous pirate. How many books were there? How many more can they make into films?

I've just read "The Pirates! In an Adventure with the Romantics"... this is probably the best installment of the series since the original. Also saw the movie, which is OK but just ain't the same as the books (I have a sneaking suspicion that if anybody other than Aardman had made it, it wouldn't have been anywhere near as good as it was)

I really felt the aardman look fit the books, when they announced that aardman was making it I was like "YES!"
