Joachim Ronning and Espen Sandberg to direct Pirates of the Caribbean 5



     Since Hollywood's motto has always been, "keep making sequels until they stop making money" and the fact that On Stranger Tides was a commercial, if not critical, success, a fifth Pirates of the Caribbean film was inevitable.
     Well it appears the fifth installment finally has a director.  Or should I say directors?
     According to "Deadline" directors Joachim Ronning and Espen Sandberg (Kon-Tiki) will helm the ship of the fourth sequel and both producer Jerry Bruckheimer and actor Johnny Depp have signed off on the pair. 
     While I have no desire to see another Pirates film, I will point out that Kon-Tiki was nominated for a Best Foreign Language Film Oscar.  Perhaps the two will produce an actual good sequel.  But I have my doubts.
     Pirates of the Caribbean: The Quest for Keith Richards' Prostate Exam Results, begins filming later this year or early 2014 with a planned release date of summer 2015.
