Nothing tops the movie "pirates" from the 80s by Roman polanski with Walter Matthau. The best pirate flick ever!

Damn, I knew I should have done something more obscure. 10 Favorite Movie Dinosaurs was the other option....with the Jurassic Park T-Rex being the one I would list.

When nobody realizes your parody thread is a parody.....you have failed.

Yellowbeard would have been my choice.

What about Tim Curry from Muppet Treasure Island?
