Title: Jack Sparrow In DLP
Post by: CaptainKennySparrow on August 01, 2015, 09:03:17 AM
Hi folks!

I am going to Paris for the halloween event in my Jack Sparrow costume and would love to meet the one there that plays him!

I can't find any images of the DLP Jack Sparrow so I was wondering if anybody has met him? Whats he like and is he good in character?? I saw a video clip of one from years ago who was awful, he didnt even have the voice, he was french through and through haha

I met him last year on November 3rd, and in the past couple of years quite a few times.
But he is always a surprise since he got taken off the schedule a year ago.
He is absolutely amazing!

you should check out the scene from Stranger Tides, where Angelica is impersonating Jack and he confronts her. That would be a great exchange with the DLP Captain Jack

Just google "Disneyland Paris Jack Sparrow", you should get plenty of images that way :)
I've met him loads, the one Jack was better than the other, but overall it's always been an enjoyable enough meet and greet experience.

Leave something unfinished at the gates and fix it after you are in.

I don't mind him being available for a meet and greet but (I appreciate I may be in a minority here) I don't think he needs to be in the ride.  Pirates of the Caribbean is my all time favourite ride at DLRP and honestly don't think his inclusion is necessary.  Of course even if he does eventually turn up I won't allow this to spoil my enjoyment of the ride.
TTFN

Oh but I agree. I think the ride could do with a bit of an update to make it look more "modern", but in my opinion that doesn't mean they should include the movies.
The movies were based on the ride after all, so I don't see why the ride should suddenly become based on the movies.

Couldn't agree more. I mean when you think about it Eddie Murphy hasn't made it into the Haunted Mansion has he?

Absolutely correct!

Although let's be fair here, if that movie had been the same kind of success as the PoTC movies have been, they'd have overhauled the Mansions ages ago and only Phantom Manor would have been spared on the account it not being a Haunted Mansion ;)
Well that and Mystic Manor over in Hong Kong.

Well, well, well!  ;D ;D ;D

I met him, he was one of the best characters he looked exactly like Johnny Depp in fact I still have doubts that it was him. He dealt really well with the queues and made sure that people didn't push in. He pointed at the person who was next and was very fair. I hope you get to meet him and look out for him near adventure land and have a great time a Disneyland Paris  :D

Yikes!! So sorry for the delay! Been so busy with work and stuff, its been mental!! To be honest I personally didnt ejoy the Soiree! BUT I loved going on the POTC ride dressed up haha , had a few staff compliment me. Also  when I met the Jack sparrow guy  he was quite rude to say the least haha he kept on saying "im se star", as a professional lookalike i didnt think this guy cut it. When I was in line to meet him a few folk were coming up wanting pics with me as they didnt want to wait for him lol, I had to tell them No as its not allowed, and quite a few folk wouldnt take no for an answer to the point where my wife got involved hahaha

I have lots of pics but will upload these 2 atm :)
