Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest" has the wind at its sails and the top spot at the box office for the year.

Johnny Depp, Orlando Bloom and Keira Knightley trumped the X-Men, Superman, the Over-the-Hedge gang and every character real or animated who trotted through the multiplex this year. It doesn't seem likely that "Pirates" will be dethroned easily, but summer is far from over.
