Pirates of the Caribbean

Five films in a straight line, and one post-credits scene that is not optional.

Where to start with Pirates of the Caribbean

Release order, all five, and there is no trick to it. The one instruction that actually matters is a post-credits scene, which is easy to miss and quietly sets up the film two entries later.

  1. 1
    The Curse of the Black Pearl (2003) Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl

    The one that works completely on its own, and the only one in the series that was not written expecting a sequel. Nothing before it.

  2. 2
    Dead Man's Chest (2006) Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest

    The second and third films were shot together and are one story split in half, so this one stops rather than ends. Do not start it unless you intend to watch the next one.

  3. 3
    At World's End (2007) Pirates of the Caribbean: At World's End

    Finishes what the second film started, and then keeps going after the credits. That last scene introduces the character the fifth film is built around.

Then what? Then On Stranger Tides, which is largely self-contained and drops most of the cast, and Dead Men Tell No Tales, which brings the story back to the family set up in that post-credits scene. The fifth film ends on a hook for a sixth that does not exist and may never.

A suggested way in, not an official one. The full list is below: tick anything off in either place.

Sync & backup

Your progress is saved on this device automatically. The code below takes a copy out and puts it back. Moving a whole list onto a device that has nothing on it yet is part of the subscription.

The code holds only this franchise. The link opens the tracker with your progress already filled in, good for showing someone where you're at. The image is a picture you can keep anywhere: scan the code on it with a phone, or drag the file back in below.

Every franchise you have touched, in one code.

Scan it with another device's camera, or paste the code in below. It never leaves your browser.

Drag a SagaList image here, or .

This reads the progress stored inside the picture, so nothing has to be retyped. If the image has been through a messaging app it may have been re-encoded and lost that: scan the code on it instead, or copy the code printed along the bottom.

Takes either kind of code. A single franchise code replaces that franchise, on any device. An everything code merges by default, so nothing you have ticked on this device is lost. Putting a whole list onto a device that has nothing on it yet is the part an account pays for.

Read only. This never changes what you have saved, and nothing leaves your browser. The code has to be their code for this same franchise: codes do not carry a name, so one from somewhere else may not be recognised as wrong.
