Happy International Talk Like a Pirate Day, a day popularized by a Cleveland Radio Host in 2002.
To be celebrating this momentous day, I present to ye, me favorrrrrrite pirates in a movie. Arrrrrr.
5. Ice Pirates
It’s corny, sometimes witty, totally 80’s, and a film I remember watching as a young child.
4. Master & Commander
While not exactly a pirate movie, I enjoyed it’s vintage naval action. Plus it has Duncan McLeoud in a role as a dead French captain.
3. Princess Bride
As inconceivable as it sounds, people often forget that Westley, our protagonist is the Dread Pirate Roberts. This is a classic!
2. Hook
R.I.P. Mr Williams. His performance was unforgettable.
1. Goonies
It’s funny, has whimsical music, treasure, Italian gangsters, slick shoes, and anything else a child(or adult) may love in a movie. Goonies will be a classic for all years, because “down here it’s our time.”
OH, and sit bloody down Johnny Depp- no one be talkin’ to ye.
What are some of your favorite movies, Ye scurvy dog?
