Talk:Cutthroat Island/Archive 1

Plot
I thought the Wiki project thingy was to build a COMPREHENSIVe guid to movies. This is really sketchy! I know you people seem to think it was a bad movie( and in my opinion, this is a very negative article,)but if it was that big a flop, it deserves better coverage for making movie history, savvy? jack SParra — Preceding unsigned comment added by 64.89.254.158 (talk • contribs) 12:58, August 15, 2006 (UTC)

Reception
I added a citation for the box office bit, linking to imdb. I'm not sure if my formatting is correct - I've never done one before, so if it's not correct, I'd appreciate the help in getting it up to snuff. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 99.245.114.158 (talk • contribs) 02:03, June 24, 2009 (UTC)

Soundtrack
John Debney's music for Cutthroat Island is considered one of the best swashbuckling scores and overall best film scores ever. Check the rave reviews in soundtrack.net. They should do an extensive article about the score, as it has been released in three CD's (four, I should say), two of them pretty much the same but with different covers and labels and an extended edition, with two CD's. The second has unused cues, a syntheziser demo and two tracks not by Debney but that were orchestrated by him (one of them was played in Renny Harlin's wedding with Geena Davis). Either way, they should make an article for it. It's importance is that although the movie was forgettable, the score is still remembered. A friend of mine, a specialist in film music, considered it "better than John Williams". That's gotta count for something Not even Pirates of the Caribbean surpassed it in spectacularity, as the later was more syntheziser based (as with most of Hans Zimmer's works). And Pirates gets a whole article for each soundtrack. That's just not fair --Surten (talk) 03:37, 13 May 2008 (UTC)Surten. And that brings me to the following:

Open Call
I'm writing this comment in all of the articles about special editions of soundtracks. I suggest to create an article (or a portal if it was needed) with a list of soundtracks that have been expanded in several and more complete editions, as I find interesting to see which scores have been succesful enough that many editions and much more complete versions have been released. Please reply if you agree with me or if there's already something similar. --Surten (talk) 03:37, 13 May 2008 (UTC)Surten

Chuck Norris
I think Chuck Norris played a bit part as the ghost parrot. Seriously, check it out. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 155.100.9.11 (talk) 23:24, 1 February 2013 (UTC)

Box Office Flops
Why is John Carter considered a bigger box office flop? Didn't it at least break even? Neil618 (talk) 15:49, 19 April 2014 (UTC)
