Pirates of the Caribbean: At World's End is a 2007 American adventure fantasy film, the third film in the Pirates of the Caribbean series. The plot follows Will Turner, Elizabeth Swann, and the crew of the Black Pearl rescuing Captain Jack Sparrow (Johnny Depp), from Davy Jones's Locker, and then preparing to fight the East India Trading Company, led by Cutler Beckett (Tom Hollander) and Davy Jones (Bill Nighy), who plan to extinguish piracy. Gore Verbinski directed the film, as he did with the previous two. It was shot in two shoots during 2005 and 2006, the former simultaneously with the preceding film, Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest.
The film was released in English-speaking countries on May 25, 2007 after Disney decided to move the release date a day earlier than originally planned. Critical reviews were mixed, but At World's End was a box office hit, becoming the most successful film of 2007, grossing over $960 million worldwide, and making it the third most successful in the series, behind On Stranger Tides and Dead Man's Chest.
John Christopher "Johnny" Depp II (born June 9, 1963) is an American actor, producer and musician. He has won the Golden Globe Award and Screen Actors Guild award for Best Actor. Depp rose to prominence on the 1980s television series 21 Jump Street, becoming a teen idol. Dissatisfied with that status, Depp turned to film for more challenging roles; he played the title character of Edward Scissorhands (1990) and later found box office success in films such as Sleepy Hollow (1999), Charlie and the Chocolate Factory (2005), Rango (2011) and the Pirates of the Caribbean film series (2003–present). He has collaborated with director and friend Tim Burton in eight films, most recently with Dark Shadows (2012).
Depp has gained acclaim for his portrayals of people such as Ed Wood, in Ed Wood, Joseph D. Pistone in Donnie Brasco, Hunter S. Thompson in Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas, George Jung in Blow, and the bank robber John Dillinger in Michael Mann's Public Enemies. Films featuring Depp have grossed over $3.1 billion at the United States box office and over $7.6 billion worldwide. He has been nominated for top awards many times, winning the Best Actor Awards from the Golden Globes for Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street and from the Screen Actors Guild for Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl. He also has garnered a sex symbol status in American cinema, being twice named as the "Sexiest Man Alive" by People magazine in 2003 and 2009. He has been listed in the 2012 Guinness Book of World Records as the highest paid actor, with $75 million.
Set these guitars of fire baby!
Yeah I was making choices.
Every day was a fucking struggle.
I couldn't tell who to blame when everything went straight to hell.
I know, I know this isn't what we had in mind.
But at a certain point you need to realize
That abandoning the ship was for the best.
I could here the captain screaming:
"Mayday! It's an emergency!
We got a man overboard!
Prevent him from sinking!"
I only had my hope to keep my floating.
But piece by piece it's crumbled down
I was getting flooded
I see, I see this world with brand new eyes now.
It's too a beating to realize what the hell I'm doing here.
Now I will conquer everyone with words of perseverance, perseverance!
We've seen hell from the inside so we ain't going back. (0 1 5 6! )
I have carried on this leap of faith.
Even though these times are changing.
We were a constant.
You and I where always a constant!
It shakes my world to see it fall.
The captain is screaming:
"Mayday! It is an emergency!
We got a man overboard!
Prevent him from sinking!"
I only had my hope to keep my floating
But piece by piece it's crumbled down
I was getting flooded.
This is an emergency and we're running out of time!
We're counting down the seconds.
Until we all find air to breathe
Until we all find eyes to see
Until the lambs becomes the lions!
We were always a constant!
