Pirates of the Caribbean

I've seen the other movies on tv, but they don't interest me enough to see them in the theater. I hate the magic nonsense. It's sort of odd since the whole idea came from the ride at Disney, and the original was pretty clear in showing the pirates as bastards (selling off captured women, chasing them (presumably with rape in mind--that was changed to the lady chasing the pirate later).

The age of sail is interesting enough without magic, and unless the do a Captain Blood and make them have a better motive... Meh.
