Thought it was just me, but apparently the second and third Pirates of the Caribbean movies left quite a few of you feeling confused as well - - even the film’s star, Johnny Depp!

Depp recently revealed in a new interview with Entertainment Weekly that while filming the sequels to the hit theatrical blockbuster - - he frequently felt lost when trying to comprehend the films complex and often confusing storylines.

“They had to invent a trilogy out of nowhere,” he toldEntertainment Weekly. “It was plot driven and complicated. I remember talking to [director Gore Verbinski] at certain points during production of two or three, and saying: ‘I don’t really know what this means.’ He said, ‘Neither do I, but let’s just shoot it.’ This guy is this guy’s dad, and this guy was in love with this broad. It was like, ‘What?’”

If the studio’s franchise player can’t even understand their films- - how in the hell did they expect us fans to get it?!

Johnny went on to explain that for the franchises’ fourth installment, the material was stripped down to its basic core, and a new, simpler story was developed to avoid overlapping plot lines that might lose the audience.

Depp, whose Jack Sparrow character is the heart of the franchise, also admitted that he doesn’t even know how the two previous sequels ultimately turned out.

“To be perfectly honest, I didn’t see them,” he said.. “I did see the first one. I have not seen the second one or the third one.”
