From this Saturday at 12am Eastern, that’s 4pm Saturday in NZ, 2pm in Sydney and 5am in the UK, and repeated every four hours throughout the day, it’s the described movies Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides from 2011, and Coco from 2017.
Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides is a 2011 American fantasy swashbuckler film directed by Rob Marshall.
It is the first film in the series not to be directed by Gore Verbinski.
Produced by Jerry Bruckheimer and written by Ted Elliott and Terry Rossio, the film is suggested by the 1987 novel On Stranger Tides by Tim Powers as a standalone sequel to At World's End (2007) and the fourth instalment in the Pirates of the Caribbean film series.
The film stars Johnny Depp, Geoffrey Rush, and Kevin R. McNally, who reprise their roles from the previous films, alongside Penélope Cruz, Ian McShane, Sam Claflin and Àstrid Bergès-Frisbey.
The story follows the eccentric pirate Captain Jack Sparrow (Depp) forced into a shaky alliance with Angelica (Cruz), a mysterious woman from his past, as they embark on a quest for the Fountain of Youth.
Jack is forced aboard the Queen Anne's Revenge, contends with the infamous pirate Blackbeard (McShane), and enters an uneasy alliance with Jack's rival Hector Barbossa (Rush).
On Stranger Tides was produced by Walt Disney Pictures and Jerry Bruckheimer Films and distributed by Walt Disney Studios Motion Pictures.
During the back-to-back production of Dead Man's Chest (2006) and At World's End, writers Elliott and Rossio first learned of Powers' novel and considered it a good starting point for a new film in the series.
Pre-production started after the end of the 2007–2008 Writers Guild of America strike, with Depp collaborating with the writers on the story design.
Principal photography lasted for 106 days between June and November 2010, with locations in Hawaii, the United Kingdom, Puerto Rico, and California.
Filming employed 3D cameras like those used in the production of the 2009 film Avatar, and ten companies were involved with the film's visual effects.
Following inflated production costs which ballooned the net budget to $379 million, the film was the most expensive film ever made at the time of its release.
On Stranger Tides was released in the United States on 20 May 2011.
The film broke many box office records and was the third highest-grossing film of 2011.
A fifth film, titled Dead Men Tell No Tales, was released in May 2017, and a sixth film is in development.

Coco is a 2017 American computer-animated fantasy film produced by Pixar Animation Studios and released by Walt Disney Pictures.
Based on an original idea by Lee Unkrich, it was directed by him, co-directed by Adrian Molina, and produced by Darla K. Anderson, from a screenplay written by Molina and Matthew Aldrich, and a story by Unkrich, Molina, Aldrich, and Jason Katz.
The film stars the voices of Anthony Gonzalez, Gael García Bernal, Benjamin Bratt, Alanna Ubach, Renée Victor, Ana Ofelia Murguía and Edward James Olmos.
The story follows a 12-year-old boy named Miguel (Gonzalez) who is accidentally transported to the Land of the Dead, where he seeks the help of his deceased musician great-great-grandfather to return him to his family among the living and to reverse his family's ban on music.
The concept for Coco is inspired by the Mexican holiday Day of the Dead.
Pixar began developing the animation in 2016; Unkrich, Molina, and some of the film's crew visited Mexico for research.
Composer Michael Giacchino, who had worked on prior Pixar animated features, composed the score.
With a cost of $175–225 million, Coco is the first film with a nine-figure budget to feature an all-Latino principal cast.
Coco premiered on 20 October 2017, during the Morelia International Film Festival in Morelia, Mexico.
It was theatrically released in Mexico the following week, the weekend before Día de Muertos, and in the United States on 22 November 2017.
The film was praised for its animation, voice acting, music, visuals, emotional story, and respect for Mexican culture.
It grossed over $807 million worldwide, becoming the 16th highest-grossing animated film ever at the time of its release.
Coco received two awards at the 90th Academy Awards, and numerous other accolades.
The film was chosen by the National Board of Review as the Best Animated Film of 2017.
