Friday’s Openings: ‘Pirates of the Caribbean’ & ‘Baywatch’

In the 7 Blog, Dan Webster introduces us to 2 blockbuster movies that will open Friday:

This is blockbuster week, apparently, with two major openings scheduled for Friday (or Thursday night in some cases). The national release list is as follows:

“Baywatch” : Dwayne Johnson and Zac Efron star as dueling members of the lifeguard team who attempt to foil the actions of a local crime boss. Question: Do they do it in slo-mo?

“Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Men Tell No Tales” : Johnny Depp returns as Captain Jack Sparrow, with a band of dead pirates (led by Javier Bardem) bent on doing him harm. Has this series jumped the shark yet?

Question: Do you plan to see either of these movies?
