The Davy Jones hologram at the beginning is cool. The new Jack Sparrow robots on the ride were eerily realistic. The Davy Jones hologram at the beginning is cool.

The additions of the Davy Jones "hologram" and the Jack Sparrow animatronics are fine enough, but it's the new dialog that all the other pirates have that's distracting. After you hear the "Dead men tell no tales" bit at the beginning, the Davy Jones-agram goes on to say something along the lines of "But sometimes they do!" and then EVERY. SINGLE. PIRATE. in the ride mentions Jack Sparrow. Be it the pirate on the ship attacking the fort saying "bring me Jack Sparrow" or the drunkard talking to the farm animals saying "Let me tell you a tale of Jack Sparrow" or the bride auction pirate saying "These here wenches be good enough for Jack Sparrow", by the end of it you really don't mind seeing Jack Sparrow the 3 or 4 times he pops up, but it's that no one would shut up about him that's annoying!

It's a fun little read. One warning: If you try & buy it at Borders, they might have it under the title Pirate Talk in the Kids section. Took me forever to find it.
