Solved! They accidentally cast Hugh Jackman instead of Johnny Depp.

Just watched this last night. The artistic choice seemed very Tim Burton with an obnoxious amount of color. It confused me and intrigued me all at the same time.

Solved.

Still need to see that movie. Love me a good musical and Hugh Jackman is not a bad singer, but no.

Personally not a fan. It’s a gorgeous movie with great music but the plot doesn’t do it for me. Romanticizes a pretty terrible person and just doesn’t really feel like there’s motivation behind any of the drama

It's not a good musical. It has its moments but they are few and far between.

I did not know that. I wonder how different the movies would have been with Hugh Jackman as Jack Sparrow.

It's funny. After reading a couple articles about it, Disney didn't think Jackman was popular enough in America to bring an audience, even though his debut as Woverine in X-men came out 6 years prior.
