Pirates of the Caribbean

Arrr, ahoy mateys! This week we're diving deep into the world of PIRATES — and as “Our Flag Means Death” reminds us, there’s nothing straight about 'em! We're setting sail with Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl, the very first film inspired by the legendary Disney ride that launched a swashbuckling franchise.

We talk about how the movie reshaped the attraction itself, from updates to full-on overhauls, and of course, all the  queer moments throughout the film. And we’re not talking subtext — it’s text. Two pirates are just straight-up gay, and let’s be real, Jack Sparrow and Barbossa fight like messy exes still working through a breakup. Hop aboard, it’s gonna be a ride!
