Okay, here's the million dollar question... Is it pronounced Pirates of the "Caribbean" OR Pirates of the "Caribbean". I think it just sounds so weird when people pronounce it "Caribbean".... I mean, seriously, "Caribbean"? Who says it like that? It's obviously pronounced "Caribbean"!
I say it like the first way , pirates of the caribbean. - jjdq

It was a sad attempt at "g rated" humor folks. You see, they're spelled the same...therefore the answer to the question would be the same. Caribbean or Caribbean. My apologies - gobigdan

Because languages evolve both are considered "correct". However, the name originated from the native Carib (pronounced CaREEB) people, many locals use the "Car-ee-be-un" pronunciation, which is probably the most authentic. But I say Caribbean! :) - MoonWillow

Very interresting moonwillow! So tell me then, the native Carib people, would they pronounce it a) carribean b) carribean or c) carribean? I must warn you... I've mixed up a, b, and c.
