The great thing about the "You best start believin' in ghost stories" scene in PotC is that there had been basically no indication before that point that was anything but a historical adventure movie.

Hey btw there's been a bunch of weird signs in amarillo texas over the past few decades (you can literally just look up amarillo sign and they start showing up, a lot of them have been removed irl by now which makes me kind of sad) but theres so many and they can get so good. You might even recognize some that broke out into the zeitgeist.

Ok I had NOT heard of these! But it’s super fascinating- found some of the more ominous-esc signs off google

But there are so many that aren’t ominous- I saw a lady in a dress, Jessica Rabbit, cool flower. Also found this article called Roadtrippers that said about this project:

“While many people refer to the collection of signs as the “Dynamite Museum,” this is actually the name of the artist collective behind them. Jon Revett, an artist and assistant professor of painting and drawing at West Texas A&M University, became involved with the Dynamite Museum in the mid-’90s. He explains that the collective’s name comes from the fact that the group, funded by eccentric millionaire Stanley Marsh 3 (who also sponsored Cadillac Ranch), wanted to “blow up” the idea of what an art museum is supposed to be.

Revett says that the Sign Project is the Dynamite Museum’s most successful work, and the Amarillo tourism website claims it was once the largest urban art project in the world. While there’s no specific number on record, Revett guesses about 3,000 signs were made and installed, a majority of which stand (or stood) on private property in Amarillo. There are also some located along historic Route 66 in Adrian, a small town 50 miles west of Amarillo.”

ESTIMATED 3k SIGNS FOR THIS ART PROJECT IS NUTS!! This author found around 185 signs which is still a lot, each costing 300-1000 dollars. Wow.
