"Obsessed When...you think "Pyrex of the Caribbean" would be a brilliant marketing campaign."
I'd buy!! (or rather it would be a lovely present from my mom at Christmas) and I don't even cook that much (if I can help it). I have scrolled through every tee-shirt, bandana, flag, sticker, Pirate jewelery for pete's sake that I can locate on the internet...yuck. There are some funny things out there. So baked goods--take it easy on the baked goods darlin'--kinda a tie in for low fat sorta stuff.
the POTC toothpastes must be apple flavoured.. and potc sodas, rum flavored... the essence of rum*perfume*.. root rum... get it? root beer=root rum? meh, that sucked lol.
you know you're obsessed when you think of new marketing techniques for POTC merchandise... and if you think about POTC merchandise that must be sold... 😛
*double post, sorry*

Not sure why I didn't -lol.Ah, the spoof wasn't that good. It was four girls (and my Dad as gibbs) and we turned COTBP into a 30 min film - the mississippi river was our ocean -lol. I've got a pic on my LJ - its titled "Silly" if you want to check out the costumes 😛
I wanna check out the play-film.. 😛 I want to go to the beach badly now... hmm or a pool...
You got your DAD to be Gibbs--go give that man a hug!! how funny!!
Okay, you know you're obsessed when you think PotC needs your help in marketing 😆 😆 anything. For pete's sake, rum flavored toothpaste, I'm so sure Disney is gonna hire us all for that department. Dadblame, I'm still laughing, must be tired...are we really that funny? Well you are Ja eh, I'm just here for the goof.
Yeah, we thought our little movie was great when we did it, but now...wow. Jack had his infamous crown from the neighborhood burger king, we had a wooden stand-in sword at one point, the Black Pearl was either a photograph or my playgym - lol. The costumes and makeup were pretty good though - my mom used to be a professional makeup artist/photographer, so she did the makeup and camera work. If you'd like, I could post a few pics from the film here 😉
Jack Sparrow Rum Cake - wouldn't that be an awesome product? Even POTC rumcake, they could have different flavors! Calypso Butter-Rum, Apple, Vanilla (for Lizzie?) etc...
crabs you know, need butter for dipping--or not. For will, we could have some kind of smoky bbQ sauce or Davy Jones fish dipping sauce. Definitely cologne for Jack--and hats lots of hats--you know that reference to long pulled pork in DMC is for cannibalism. Definitely turkey jerky for cutler beckett (you are what you eat)
You know you're obsessed when you make a spoof of COTBP, then post pics of the costumes on the "You Know You're Obsessed When..." forum. You also know you're obsessed when you watch said film in retrospect and realize you made it Sparrabeth subconsiously (seriously, when I made this it was pre-DMC, I didn't even know what shipping was!)
Keep in mind that the cast consisted of five girls (me, Maria, Anabelle, Lisa and Teresa) and my dear ol' dad -lol. Maria and I were about 13-14 when we made this 😛
1. Maria as Hector Barbossa
2. My Dad as Gibbs (tortuga scene)
3. Maria as the Whelp
4. Lisa as Young Elizabeth
5. Annabelle as Commodore Norrington (hip pirates have a multi-racial cast 😉 ) along with Maria as Lizzie, Teresa and Lisa as redcoats and me as Jack
6. Me as Jack in the infamous Burger King Crown 😄
7. Sparrabeth! 😱
8. Yays, more Sparrabeth. (Note: Our neighbors must have been convinced I was insane - it was practically snowing and we're singing around a grill in the backyard - you can see how spoofy it was (you can see my dad's car for goodness sakes!))
9. Teresa as the little fish boy from the begining.
10. Anabelle and Maria as Murtog and Mullroy
11. Maria pimpin' up Pintel as a rasta pirate -lol.
12. Bring Me That Horizon....I love how there is a barge in the background 😉
13. Me as Jack and Maria as Elizabeth (attached because the pic is really big I couldn't resize it for some reason - darn computer! 😠)
Wow, more pictures than I originally wanted. Please don't hate me for clogging up the page! 😮
