THE MAIN ATTRACTION
The adventurers assemble for their voyage to the edges of the Earth -- and beyond -- in "Pirates of the Caribbean: At World's End."
A World of Excitement Approaches
It's looming on the horizon -- the Jolly Roger fluttering from its mast. It's the adventure of the summer. Although it won't make landfall until May 25, anticipation is already growing for "Pirates of the Caribbean: At World's End," the final film in the "Pirates of the Caribbean" trilogy. This one will take Captain Jack and crew to the ends of the Earth -- literally! And according to production designer Rick Heinrichs, it will be unlike anything you've seen before -- even in the previous "Pirates" films.
"It really does go off into new locations and a new look. It has a more restrained graphic and simplified look," he says.

Around 1965, we celebrated my birthday at Disneyland. I remember the dining room or restaurant was on the second floor of a building that looked up Main Street toward Sleeping Beauty Castle. Can you tell me if my memory is correct?
- Kathy, 53, Downey, CA
DAVE'S ANSWER
We have never had a second floor restaurant on Main Street, U.S.A., at Disneyland. None of the buildings, other than those in Town Square, are large enough to have a usable second floor.
