It's a plunderful life

The luxuriantly bearded Pirate Captain is a boundlessly enthusiastic, if somewhat less-than-successful, terror of the High Seas. With a rag-tag crew at his side, and seemingly blind to the impossible odds stacked against him, the Captain has one dream: to beat his bitter rivals Black Bellamy and Cutlass Liz to the much coveted Pirate of the Year Award. It’s a quest that takes our heroes from the shores of exotic Blood Island to the foggy streets of Victorian London. Along the way they battle a diabolical queen and team up with a haplessly smitten young scientist, but never lose sight of what a pirate loves best: adventure!

Die Piraten! - Ein Haufen merkwürdiger Typen

Was macht einen wirklichen Piraten aus? Die Piraten – Ein Haufen merkwürdiger Typen klärt uns auf: Das erstrebenswerteste Ziel eines jeden Piraten ist es die begehrteste Trophäe zu ergattern und zum „Besten Piraten des Jahres“ gekürt zu werden. Eine Ehrensache für den Piratenkapitän, der auf den Furcht einflößenden Namen Piratenkapitän hört. Doch die Konkurrenz ist groß dieses Jahr, denn gleich beide Erzrivalen, Black Bellamy und Cutlass Liz, wollen ihm den Titel streitig machen. Doch ein Pirat wie der Kapitän lässt sich nicht so schnell ins Bockshorn jagen. Also schart er seine Mannschaft, einen haufen merkwürdiger Typen, um sich und begibt sich von der idyllischen Blutinsel fort, kämpft mit Wind, Wetter und Widrigkeiten von der Größe eines gefräßigen Wales. Im fernen London gilt es sogar der ganz und gar unamüsierten KöniginVictoria die Stirn zu bieten. Ja, der Titel „Pirat des Jahres“ will verdient sein.

Les Pirates ! Bons à rien, mauvais en tout

Malgré son enthousiasme, le Capitaine Pirate a beaucoup de mal à se faire passer pour une terreur des mers. Secondé par un équipage aussi peu doué que lui, le Capitaine rêve pourtant de battre ses rivaux, Black Bellamy et Liz Lafaucheuse, en remportant le prestigieux Prix du Pirate de l'Année. Pour le Capitaine et son drôle d'équipage, c'est le début d'une incroyable odyssée qui, des rivages de Blood Island jusqu'aux rues embrumées de Londres, va les conduire d'épreuves en rencontres. S'ils vont faire équipe avec un jeune scientifique du nom de Charles Darwin, ils vont aussi devoir affronter mille dangers et tenter de survivre à la reine Victoria, qui voue une haine absolue aux pirates... En avant pour l'aventure !

Pirati! Briganti da strapazzo

Capitan Pirata, terrore dei sette mari più di nome che di fatto, ha il grande sogno di fare suo il titolo di Pirata dell'anno ma per riuscirci deve battere l'agguerrita concorrenza del terribile Black Bellamy e della maliarda Cutlass Liz, i rivali di sempre. Con a fianco il suo strampalato equipaggio, il capitano si imbarca in un'avventura che lo porterà dalle esotiche Blood Islands fino alla nebbia della Londra vittoriana, scontrandosi lungo il tragitto con una diabolica regina e trovando la collaborazione di un giovane scienziato.
