For Fantasy Month (2026), I wanted to go back and watch the Pirates of the Caribbean films because I have not seen all of them. I remember when the first movie was announced, I had my concerns. Film adaptations of video games have rarely gone well, so an adaptation of an amusement ride also seemed like a risky decision. However, in this case it paid off … big time!
The Pirates of the Caribbean franchise became a huge success and one of Johnny Depp’s most iconic roles. This franchise is also one of Hans Zimmer’s most iconic scores. The special effects of all of these films are another thing that really stands out in this franchise.
There are no bonus movies or a random selection this time. The special event movies consist of 42 for Jackie Robinson Day and Star Trek: First Contact for First Contact Day.
