Is this villain someone we've seen in a past movie?
Weird to me that they put out a teaser without even showing Jack Sparrow.
Depp isn't exactly well-liked these days.Quoting Dukefrukem (view post)
Is that the international title or something? In the US the movie is called PotC: Dead Men Tell No Tales.

Huh? I'd say his popularity and cult status have been pretty steady throughout the years.Quoting Ezee E (view post)
Since the last Pirates movie, he's had bomb after bomb (even the Alice sequel underperformed), and he's now considered a wife beater by the tabloids. Studios definitely don't think he's a box office draw anymore.Quoting Grouchy (view post)
Movie Theater DiaryQuoting Donald Glover
Aaaah I'd forgotten all about this. I guess I just considered that, no matter how bad his latest movies were, Depp's name would always bring a broad smile from teenage girls all around the world, same as Woody Allen with octogenarians.Quoting number8 (view post)
The teenage girls who loved him are now 30+ and don't go to the movies or consume Depp stuff as rabidly anymore. A 15-year-old now doesn't give two shits about him.Quoting Grouchy (view post)

Yeah it's only not called Dead Men Tell No Tales in a few countries.Quoting number8 (view post)
Disney does this all the time, often for reasons I can't understand. John Carter understandably got the added subtitle of "Between Two Worlds" in many countries, The Avengers was Avengers Assemble in the UK due to the old TV series, Tomorrowland got "A World Beyond" added to it (particularly in Europe, where many might've confused it with the annual electronic festival happening the same summer).
But the most confusing might be Zootopia being Zootropolis in so many places, particularly for English-speaking countries needing the original voice cast to re-record every line of dialogue referring to the movie's titular city. Also the translated subtitle "City of Animals" popped up here and there. In China it's apparently only known as "Crazy Animal City"

Zootopia was changed for the same reason as Tomorrowland and Avengers. It's because they already have this in the UK:

"How is education supposed to make me feel smarter? Besides, every time I learn something new, it pushes some old stuff out of my brain. Remember when I took that home wine-making course and forgot how to drive?"
--Homer
Wow. I haven't gave a shit about this film, but that looks awesome.
I'm going to be fooled into seeing this. Looks really good.
I was surprised to see Rush and Bloom in this, but cmon guys. This looks no better than Transformers.
That's a shame, since you lose the double meaning when you change the title.Quoting number8 (view post)

I hadn't considered that, but you're totally right. Zootropolis is a more neutral description of a multicultural society.Quoting Spinal (view post)

Bit of a herky-jerky trailer, but it may have some fun squeezed in there. I'll probably watch it from home sometime.

Are you referring to the zombie sharks?Quoting Morris Schæffer (view post)
To be fair, that is probably just a poster that'll be seen in Portugal. The more "official", Disney-attentive North American one, on the other hand, is just a Marvel poster:
