In the first film, "The Curse of the Black Pearl", it is revealed that Will's father, Bootstrap Bill, was part of a crew that mutinied against Captain Jack Sparrow and stole cursed Aztec gold. The curse turned the crew into undead skeletons during moonlight, unable to feel, taste, or die. As the cursed crew seeks to break the curse, they realize that they need the blood of a descendant of Bootstrap Bill to lift it. Will Turner, being Bootstrap Bill's son, becomes a target for both Captain Barbossa and Jack Sparrow. However, Will is unaware of his true heritage and his connection to the cursed crew until later in the story.

Here are just some of the exciting features:
1) Sets up in literally seconds and packs small enough to fit into a brief case!
2) Weighs practically nothing.
3) Can be performed surrounded.
4) No need for an assistant!
5) Can be used to produce large objects.
6) Extremely easy to learn and teach others.
7) Comes with a drop cloth so it can be performed almost anywhere.
8) The load cube has a rip-away top/bottom so that the cube can be lifted to be shown empty
with balloons, beach balls, silks or other light objects in it. Or, if you have people above
you, the rip-away top can be used to conceal your load.
9 ) Specially designed to be compatible with Victory Cubes.
This means instead of the red cube you could use a present cube or shipping crate or basic dice from the classic Victory Cubes. This opens a world of opportunities for more routines or means you can have incredible matching stage decorations for your illusion and it all still fits under the seat of your car!
The basic performance idea is to show the two cubes empty and then produce a person
or large objects using the square circle method.
Brian Scott, a California based magician, has created a fantastic routine talking about the advanced technology of shipping where a ball of fabric can be popped open and all the contents you need for your vacation can be shipped right to where you are going. It is fantastic and will be explained in detail on the DVD but it doesn't stop there:
Just imagine being able to teleport large objects across the stage using two sets,
make the birthday boy appear, make a dozen beach balls appear, produce all the balloons
for twisting animals in a snap, make a library cart filled with all the magic books appear,
make your entire show appear, and so on.
Cube Squared will come with three pop-open cubes, a drop cloth, a carrying bag,
an instructional DVD, a full color booklet with performance ideas,
and a certificate of authenticity.

Reviews for "The Black Pearl Curse: Will Turner's Quest for Closure"
1. Jennifer - 2/5 stars
I was really disappointed with "Will Turner Curse of the Black Pearl." The plot was weak and dragged on for far too long. The characters were shallow and lacked depth, making it difficult to connect with any of them. The inclusion of unnecessary CGI and action sequences just added to the confusion and chaos. Overall, I found the film to be unoriginal and lacking the charm and excitement of its predecessors in the franchise. It's definitely not a movie I would recommend spending money on.
2. Mike - 3/5 stars
As a fan of the previous "Pirates of the Caribbean" films, I had high hopes for "Will Turner Curse of the Black Pearl," but it fell short of my expectations. The story felt convoluted and forced, trying too hard to replicate the success of the previous movies. The humor, which was a strong point in the earlier films, felt forced and lacked the cleverness and wit. While the visual effects were impressive, it felt like they were there to compensate for the weak storyline. Overall, it was an average film that failed to capture the magic of the franchise.
3. Sarah - 2/5 stars
I found "Will Turner Curse of the Black Pearl" to be a confusing mess. The plot was all over the place, and the character development was lacking. The film relied heavily on CGI and action sequences, but they were so unrealistic and poorly executed that it took away from any enjoyment I could have had. The dialogue was weak, and even the talented cast couldn't save it. It's a shame because the previous films in the series were so much better. I wouldn't recommend wasting your time on this one.
