page 9 On Stranger Tides do not… ▬ Tell too many stories or present a convoluted / confusing story ▬ Focus too heavily on the zombies In a way that could make the movie seem overly unrealistic / corny (especially adult) In a way that could make the movie seem too scary / intense for children (family) ▬ Focus too much on romance or make the relationship between Jack and Angelica seem more romantic than it is Moviegoers like that she is his equal; that she can give back to him what he gives out ▬ Focus too much on Jack and Angelica’s past (he seduced her when she was living in a convent) in a way that could cause parents concern about appropriateness for children
