User blog comment:Pearl of Freedom/DMC and AWE should have been 3 movies LOTR style/@comment-4898132-20110408020909/@comment-3534408-20110408112953

I loathe AWE with passion so we`ll never agree on that one. :) It was the most disappointing movie for me since the Prequels precisely because they could have done something amazing with it but just messed it up completely. It felt like Disney Boardroom Meeting MInutes were turned into a script. And I`m glad it lost $105 mio at the boxoffice on DMC a movie that I adore despite slow beginning. :)

As for Cannibal Island, I didn`t think it was unnecessary, just that it went on forever wthout adding much to anything. So Will and Jack met and Jack is affraid of the sea and that had to go on for 45 minutes of slapstick? Nah. Full Liar`s Dice scene, full Map Is Finished would fix some pacing problems, explain things better, make better transition to AWE and overalll, wouldn`t rob Cannibal Island of more than 10 minutes if CI was to get shorter to accomodate them.
