So what can we say about Disney? Holds a special place in some of our hearts, for the villains or heroes and or the beautiful look. I hope to share a little bit of everything in the days coming, maybe things you forgot about, maybe not and being part of the Co-hosting for A to Z Challenge we all remember Tina... a dear friend and sweet lady.

Hector Barbossa is a fictional character in the Pirates of the Caribbean film series partly inspired by Barbarossa Hayreddin Pasha. Barbossa is portrayed by Australian actor Geoffrey Rush in all the films. Barbossa was first introduced in the series as the villainous and treacherous captain of the Black Pearl after committing mutiny against the ship's rightful captain, Jack Sparrow, in the series' first installment Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl (2003). Having met his demise in the climax of the film, his character is revealed to have been resurrected at the end of Dead Man's Chest (2006). In the third film At World's End (2007), it is revealed that Barbossa is also one of the nine pirate lords in the Brethren Court, the Pirate Lords of the Seven Seas. In the fourth film On Stranger Tides (2011), he has become a privateer in the King's Navy and is ordered to be Jack's guide on an expedition for the Fountain of Youth.

I've never seen any of The Pirates of the Caribbean films, but Geoffrey Rush is sure to give an exceptional performance. You could tell how much he enjoys hamming It up in these fantastic photos!

Rush obviously had a lot of fun playing the character.
ReplyDeleteGeoffrey Rush. Great actor. Go Australia!

ReplyDeleteBarbossa is a fantastic character and I think Rush is a great actor.
ReplyDeleteI really liked him in the first movie - such a rogue :) I have to say I'm not a fan of the sequels though.

If anyone could steal those movies from Depp, it was Barbossa. He was absolutely terrific.
ReplyDeleteGood luck with the 2015 A to Z Challenge!

Rush is awesome as Barbossa!
ReplyDeleteHe was perfect as the sly pirate who betrayed another pirate. And he always appeared so sane compared to Jack Sparrow.
ReplyDeleteJesus H. Christ, Pirates of the Caribbean is 13 years old?!?! *goes back to bed*
ReplyDeleteHe was one of the best parts of those movies, though :)

Great theme. Sadly, I haven't seen these pirate movies. Maybe when my kids get a bit older we can enjoy them together.
ReplyDeleteI love Geoffrey Rush in all of his characters. He gives true meaning to the term morphing , which he does in any film he's in. I love how he can be serious or funny and do them both so well. Great choice! Lisa, co-host AtoZ 2015, @ http://www.lisabuiecollard.com
ReplyDeleteNow that's a face you are compelled to watch. I loved him The Curse of the Black Pearl. He almost upstaged Depp.
ReplyDeleteI love Barbossa (even more than Capt'n Jack...I know, blasphemy!) and they couldn't have picked a better actor than Geoffrey! I just wish they would have spent as much time on his audioanimatronic character at Disney World as they did on Jack, it looks TERRIBLE!
ReplyDeleteBarbarosa may be my favorite character in those series of movies. :-)
ReplyDeleteSuch a great character! Good choice! :)
ReplyDeleteI never knew his first name was Hector.
ReplyDeleteRush really had fun playing him
ReplyDeleteThanks for the info....I'm not too much into Hollywood but I love the way your blog looks! There's something magnificent and beautiful about it.
ReplyDeleteI love Geoffrey Rush in anything he does and he is great in the films.
ReplyDeleteI'm a big fan of the Pirates of the Caribbean movies. Rush is an amazing actor and his Hector Barbossa is pure EVIL! He has great chemistry with Depp and their scenes together are INSANE!
ReplyDeleteGeoffrey Rush is so convincing in the Kings Speech and now a leading Hollywood actor. I must catch Pirates again, sounds really great.
ReplyDeleteLove Geoffrey Rush - and those eyes :) He's a great actor!
ReplyDeleteJ here, stopping by from the #atozchallenge 2015!
ReplyDeleteGreat post.
Excellent image choices!
That first picture he looks almost like Harry Dresden.
ReplyDeleteI've been meaning to see Pirates of the Caribbean! Never have... :(

Yo ho ho ho, his eyes are lookin at me. He's so realistic in that second picture, Jeremy. This is nearly as scary as my Heffer pic.
ReplyDeleteCheers.
You're doing great. Is it over yet? =)
I love Geoffrey Rush. Such a great actor. I never knew Barbossa's first name was Hector. I've seen all the Caribbean movies, and still like the first one best!
ReplyDeleteBarbossa was awesome.
ReplyDeleteThese movies were fun, not award winning, but good entertainment.

Geoffery Rush is a such a brilliant actor, its no wonder he brought so much mischevious life to a walking skeleton!
