Which Pirate is Which?

This be a harder game, and I'll be putting me comments on moderation so ye can't cheat off each other's answers.  

Here be the pictures of twelve (fairly) famous pirate characters from various pirate movies.  Ye be charged with matching a name to each of them.  To make this a wee bit less difficult, I've put name options at the bottom for ye to choose from.

Note that there be a couple instances of multiple pirates from the same film.

Ye get one point for each correct match, and if ye can name the movie they're appearing in, ye'll get a bonus point as well!  So there be twelve pirates, and twenty-four possible points.

Have at it!

  2. I like this game a lot!

    1. Jack Sparrow. I'm guessing At World's End (2007), because I think I see sand in the background from when he's on the Black Pearl in the middle of nowhere.
    2. Jamie Waring?
    3. Peter Blood, Captain Blood (1935).
    4. Roberts, The Princess Bride (1987).
    5. Blackbeard?
    6. Henry Morgan, The Black Swan?
    7. This is where I'm grateful for giving us the names because going through the pictures the first time I thought he looked nice but I'd never seen him before. Of course I have! Macoco, The Pirate (1948).
    8. Long John Silver
    9. Davey Crandall?
    10. Vallo?
    11. Barbossa, Dead Man's Chest (2005).
    12. Hook, Hook (1991).

    I guessed for many of those, so I hope I'm right! Thanks!

  3. I don’t know half of these, but of all the portrayals of Captain Hook did you have to use Dustin Hoffman?? That man traumatized me as a child! I still have nightmares!

  9. This is hard. I named what I could before I got to your list of names, and the list didn't help me identify the ones I didn't know. Haha. So here's me try...
    1. CAPTAIN Jack Sparrow (because "there should be a 'captain' in there somewhere"
    2. Jamie Boy (Waring)
    3. Peter Blood?
    4. The Dread Pirate Roberts
    5. Blackbeard
    6. Morgan
    7. ?
    8. Long John Silver
    9. Vallo?
    10. ?
    11. Hector Barbossa
    12. Captain Hook

    *fingers now crossed*
