Innacuracies:
Pirate Gold
True pirates of the Caribbean didn't plunder gold or pillage.
Instead they invested heavily in the bond market and stored
their assets in off-shore accounts.
Transportation
Sure, it makes for cool stunts, but Pirates did not fly
around in "choppers."
Johnny Depp
Johnny Depp is not a pirate, nor was he alive in the 17th
century.
Blackbeard
Blackbeard was not an equal-opportunity employer.
