Pirates of the Caribbean was a surprise hit at the box office. The trilogy followed the adventures of Captain Jack Sparrow, Will Turner and Elizabeth Swan from one end of the Caribbean to At World's End. True Pirates of the Caribbean fans rushed to theaters and video stores for every adventure, catapulting the series to box office stardom.

Instructions

Difficulty: Easy
Step1
Watch the Pirates of the Caribbean movies. Begin with The Curse of the Black Pearl, continue with Dead Man's Chest, and finish by viewing At World's End. The stories build from one to another, so be sure to watch them in order. They won't make sense if you mix them up.
Step2
Build your movie collection. Pirates of the Caribbean movies are like potato chips. You simply cannot have just one. Collect all three movies in the latest electronic format. A boxed set is an especially impressive addition to any movie collection.
Step3
Show your appreciation with an autograph collection. Obtain autographed photos of cast members, and proudly display them on your walls. Will Turner, Elizabeth Swan and Captain Jack Sparrow are the coveted three, but don't forget supporting cast members as well. The larger your autographed photo collection, the greater its worth.
Step4
Decorate your room with movie posters and collect memorabilia. True Pirates of the Caribbean fans own quality movie collectables. Figurines of Jack Sparrow and Will Turner, a replica of Norrington's sword, or a medallion of Aztec gold are solid additions to a true fan's collection.
Step5
Spread the word. Show your colors by wearing Pirates logo T-shirts, jackets and hats. Find Pirates of the Caribbean backpacks, lunch bags and school supplies. You can even present them as gifts to other fans.
Step6
Remember Cyberspace. Decorate your blog or website with movie stills. Change your screensaver to Will Turner and your desktop to the Black Pearl. Switch your cursor to a skull and crossbones. Finally, elevate your fan status by choosing a new Pirates screen name worthy of Jack Sparrow himself!

on 3/7/2008 Great article! You forgot to mention to go on the rides. These are the best, and there's no better way to seal your fanhood than to say you have seen the inspiration for the movies live and in person. :) Also, tellnotales.com is an amazing tribute site that any fan would love!
