Disneyland Rides/Movies...and Dead Man's Chest

[Hilsbro]

I finally got to see POTC:2 today and I was having fun shouting out little disney references thrown about the movie

Spoiler

THe First I noticed was @ the very beginning....The tea cups "Mad tea party"...The tribe...."The Jungle Cruise"


During the first Kraken scene...Will Turner Slides down the sails of the ship while cutting the sail with his sword
Much like in peter Pan.....


I turned to my friend mid-point asking which part would be small world......then we said it was the short ship mate on the black pearl....anyone else find any other hints to things inside Disney

I also joked around about the story behind why Davey Joens being so bitter much like the HM Captain Gore story line...lol

I am sorry if this topic has come up before but i have strayed away from POTC threads for quite some time...lol

I also thought about the tribe in the movie being the headshrinkers from Jungle Cruise.

The female madames table was almost like Madame Leotas table since it had Tarot Cards and Stuff of that nature. Plus she made contact with the dead (Barbosa) .

The Teacups at the beginning started the whole thing of finding hints...the Head Hunters From the JC and The tribe in the movie just have so many similarities.....

I finally got to see it Friday night. I was having a hard time avoiding the posts about it, also.

Ouch! Lucky then, eh?

Yeah, I was totally thinking those things too while watching...though I didn't start making connection until a little longer into the film

To anyone that hasn't seen the movie...just stay away from the spoiler blocks. If you do end up highlighting them and giving into curiosity...you're going to regret it

I think you all are overthinking it a bit. The tribe in the JC is in Africa, the tribe in the film is in the Carrabean. I see little similarties besides them both being natives who dance around the fire. The tribe in JC are headhunters, the tribe in PotC are cannibals..different.

Also, the mentioned scene with Will and the sail, this is just an homage to classic Pirate movies. Take for example, the Sea Hawk (1940). If you are unfamiliar with this film, its the film seen in The Goonies. Peter Pan was made in 1953? So I'm willing to believe PotC was refrencing a classic pirate movie rather than the Disney cartoon.

Everyone should know Errol Flynn - that was, I think, what he's most known for.

[Hilsbro]

wow...ok...I was only talking about animated disney movies and rides....I did not mean for this to branch off to Errol Flynn...I was talking about other refrences you saw in the movie

[dchun2007]

how are the teacups in the beginning homage to the teacup ride at disneyland? Maybe the producers just wanted to have them drinking tea.

You have to admit, the natives raising up and then back down is very reminiscint on Jungle Cruise. Of course they're different, they couldn't be exactly the same, but it's still very reminiscint.
