The Los Angeles Daily News reports today on the tight deadline facing Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest as the crew races to finish the film in time for its June 24 Disneyland premiere. The full story can be found at this link.
ed note: We have been informed by several individuals working on the film--independent of the article linked above--that the filmmakers are indeed working around the clock to ensure the film is ready for its public debut. This is not uncommon on large films, particularly those that include large numbers of effects shots.
