Swashbuckling, rum-swilling, Dressed to Plunder pirates in modern times. This trope covers works the presence of pirates clearly based on The Golden Age of Piracy, whether the real deal or the Hollywood versions, in works clearly set in the modern era or, at least, any point after the heyday of Caribbean piracy ended. Exactly why these characters are dressed and acting like they are varies from case to case. Some will be consciously trying to reenact "classical" piracy for one reason or another, and deliberately take up the dress, gimmicks, and mannerisms of pop culture piracy. Other cases will simply have peg-legged, eyepatch-wearing, doubloon-seeking Blackbeard stand-ins roam the seas of the 20th century without comment or explanation. Compare and contrast Sky Pirates. Space Pirates is when they are a few more centuries late; many cases of this trope are just as inexplicably tied to the visual icons of Caribbean pirates as these ones are. For modern, Real Life pirates of the type who are very good at shivering people's timbers (with an AK-47, not a cutlass), see Ruthless Modern Pirates. If the pirates are more concerned with looking the part than acting it, they're probably The Pirates Who Don't Do Anything, or maybe a Friendly Pirate. Compare to Born in the Wrong Century for when they feel like they belong in The Golden Age of Piracy. |

Wonder Woman (1942): Wonder Woman once faces a husband-and-wife team who lead a group of (mostly women) air pirates who operate out of a small fleet of aircraft. While most of the group is well adapted to "modern" (1940s) times, the husband styles himself after an old-timey pirate and goes by Captain Redbeard. Amusingly their fight attracts the attention of a Clock Roach that then puts the pirates, Diana, Steve, Etta, and the Holliday Girls back in the more appropriate time period for a swashbuckling confrontation on the high seas. | |

Sub-Mariner: Commander Kraken, a foe of Namor's. His arsenal includes an electrified Hook Hand, a rocket-powered Sea Dog Peg Leg, and an electrified cutlass. His vehicle of choice was a Brigantine called "The Albatross". This old-style pirate ship could transform into a sleek golden high-powered submarine. | |

Jonny Quest: The Real Adventures: The first episode has pirates dressed like what you would expect from the typical traditional pirate from a few centuries ago. Justified because they're posing as ghosts to keep people away from a shipwreck while they carry off the loot. | |

The Wrong Door had the "The Train Pirates", disenfranchised modern people who swapped their suits and briefcases for 17th-century dress and cutlasses but took to the rails rather than the seas and rode aboard "The Whore of Clapham" led by Captain Goitier played by BRIAN BLESSED. | |

The Adventures of Brisco County, Jr.: Despite being set around the turn of the 20th century, Blackbeard LeCutte and his crew are classic 17th-century pirates who were driven off the high seas and took to roaming the Nevada plains in an armored carriage flying the Jolly Roger and plundering loot from any wagon unlucky enough to cross their path. | |

The Muppet Show: One "Pigs in Space" sketch has John Cleese attacking the Swinetrek as a pirate of the swashbuckler variety. Link Hogthrob informs him that he's a few centuries out of place, which leads to an argument between John and his parrot. The episode guest starring Glenda Jackson has her revealing herself to be one of these, much to Kermit's confusion. She and her motley crew then take over the show, convert the theater into a ship, and set sail to the Spanish Main on a quest for buried treasure. |

Captain Kraken of Mutants & Masterminds Freedom City setting is a form of this. Essentially, he's an alien Space Pirate who started watching broadcasts of Earth pirate movies and decided that it would be fun to dress himself and his crew in the same style. How serious he is about following the tropes depends on the GM. | |

Batman: The villains Captain Stingaree and Cap'n Fear. Somewhat subverted in the case of Cap'n Fear and his crew, as Detective Harvey Bullock doesn't find them funny or charming at all ("I hate them swishbucklers.") and one of Fear's own men mutters about how he's getting "sick of this Popeye rap" (though he promptly changes his mind once he's threatened with a slit throat). In one Golden Age story, Batman fights a one-shot villain called Blackbeard, who styles himself after the historical Blackbeard. |

A Garfield and Friends episode featured a TV repairman who decided to follow the footsteps of his pirate ancestor and become a full pirate (In fact, the episode describes the TV repairman job as a way for pirate descendants to keep close to their roots). This modern-day pirate's criminal career was helped by the fact the authorities refused to believe whenever his victims reported him. Fortunately Garfield saved the day. | |

The Armstrong and Miller Show parodied this in a sketch that involves random people getting press-ganged by the Royal Navy into joining the "South Harbour Club Patrol" after buying t-shirts reading exactly that. And if that concept isn't 18th century enough, then Somali pirates attack South Harbour... by firing audible cannon broadsides. | |

The Trial of Superman has a character named Freelance, a bounty hunter who travels space in an 18th century-style pirate ship, complete with holographic figurehead changeable to whatever female he happens to be attracted to. He enjoys letting enemies onto his ship simply to throw them off, fighting with a sword, and sports an eyepatch. | |

In Batman: The Animated Series, the one-shot villain Sewer King is a complete kook even by Batman villain standards, and he proves it by wearing an old-fashioned pirate outfit for no explained reason (except instead of an eyepatch, he wears a pair of sunglasses with a missing lens.) Since he kidnaps and enslaves wayward children and keeps ravenous crocodiles as pets, the pirate getup serves to make him look like a warped parody of Captain Hook. | |

Odd Squad: Pirates are a common oddity in the world of the show, and most are amiable when it comes to interacting with agents. In "The Curious Case of Pirate-itis", Olive contracts the titular disease when she helps a pirate cross a busy street and begins to slowly turn into a Pirate Girl. By the climax of the episode, she's nearly full pirate, with the manner of speaking, the outfit, and the behavior to match. In "Ocean and the Fly", while looking for a cure to turn Oona back into a human from her fly form, Ocean and Oona visit a pirate in a cave, who has a treasure chest full of gold and pearls, and also wants to start a butter company. He asks Ocean and Oona to help him pick a label for his new butter, and once they pick one, he allows them to take a pearl from his treasure chest. Later on in the episode, he is shown at the grocery store attempting to sell his new butter to customers but failing, and once he sets his eyes on Ocean and Oona, he becomes enraged and takes off after them. |

The DCU: Batman: The villains Captain Stingaree and Cap'n Fear. Somewhat subverted in the case of Cap'n Fear and his crew, as Detective Harvey Bullock doesn't find them funny or charming at all ("I hate them swishbucklers.") and one of Fear's own men mutters about how he's getting "sick of this Popeye rap" (though he promptly changes his mind once he's threatened with a slit throat). In one Golden Age story, Batman fights a one-shot villain called Blackbeard, who styles himself after the historical Blackbeard. Seven Soldiers of Victory (2005): The Subway Pirates fought by the Manhattan Guardian. In the subways of Manhattan, homeless citizens have banded together creating "pirate gangs", most notably the rival factions belonging to No-Beard and All-Beard. They adopt the trappings of classic pirates and ride pirate trains through the subway system: sometimes attacking subway stations to capture slaves. The Trial of Superman has a character named Freelance, a bounty hunter who travels space in an 18th century-style pirate ship, complete with holographic figurehead changeable to whatever female he happens to be attracted to. He enjoys letting enemies onto his ship simply to throw them off, fighting with a sword, and sports an eyepatch. Wonder Woman (1942): Wonder Woman once faces a husband-and-wife team who lead a group of (mostly women) air pirates who operate out of a small fleet of aircraft. While most of the group is well adapted to "modern" (1940s) times, the husband styles himself after an old-timey pirate and goes by Captain Redbeard. Amusingly their fight attracts the attention of a Clock Roach that then puts the pirates, Diana, Steve, Etta, and the Holliday Girls back in the more appropriate time period for a swashbuckling confrontation on the high seas. |

The Venture Bros.: The pirates in "Ghosts of the Sargasso". Much like the Jonny Quest example above, they try to use trickery to pose as ghosts in order to scare merchant vessels away from their ship. Unfortunately, this plan immediately goes to pot when Brock kills one of them. The pirates also learned the hard way that nobody sails galleons full of gold doubloons across the sea anymore, and the only booty they've been able to steal so far has been a shipment for Toys R' Us, medical supplies from a Red Cross boat, and a cargo can full of L'eggs Eggs. | |

Monty Python's The Meaning of Life: The Crimson Permanent Assurance. The elderly British employees of the Permanent Assurance Company, a staid London firm which has recently been taken over by the Very Big Corporation of America, rebel against their much younger corporate masters when one of them is sacked. Having locked the surviving supervisors in the safe, and forced their boss to walk a makeshift plank out a window, they commandeer their Edwardian office building, which suddenly weighs anchor, uses its scaffolding and tarpaulins as sails, and is turned into a pirate ship. The stone office building starts to move as if it were a ship. Sailing through the City of London, they then proceed to attack The Very Big Corporation of America's (VBCA) skyscraper, using, among other things, wooden filing cabinets which have been transformed into cannonades and swords fashioned from the blades of a ceiling fan. On ropes, they swing into the board room and engage the executives of VBCA in hand-to-hand combat, vanquishing them. | |

SpongeBob SquarePants: The series often throws in pirates for no reason other than to go with its nautical theme. Most notable are the Flying Dutchman (who is a ghost) and Patchy (more of a cosplayer than anything else). (Fish) pirates sell Squidward the pie bomb in "Dying for Pie", and Mr. Krabs plays pirate in "Arrgh!". A later episode reveals that his grandfather was a pirate... and still is. | |

DodgeBall: A True Underdog Story: Steve the Pirate, as played by Alan Tudyk. It's never explained why he dresses and acts like a pirate, but the Average Joe's crew doesn't mind him. Late in the movie, after taking too much from people making fun of him, he disappears...and reappears after the climactic dodgeball game, now clean-shaven and wearing modern clothing. But when he sees the giant chest of riches Peter won betting on the Average Joe's to win, he reverts to his pirate voice. | |

Soul Series: The resident pirate Cervantes de Leon is an inversion, as the games are set during the late 16th and early 17th centuries, but his design cues harken to The Golden Age of Piracy, which only begins in the mid-1600s, thus his pirate style is about a century early. | |

South Park: In "Fatbeard", after hearing about the recent increase in piracy in Somalia and thinking this to mean that the age of Caribbean-style pirates is coming back, Cartman decides to go and live there (along with Butters, Clyde, Kyle's little brother Ike, and one of the ginger kids, that latter of whom Cartman quickly kicks out for being ginger, since Cartman believes they have no souls). Kyle and Stan realize what an incredibly stupid idea this is, but instead play up his fantasy, encouraging him to go, hoping that he will be killed along the way. Cartman is disgusted to learn that modern Somali pirates are "a disgrace to Blackbeard", and tries to get them to act more traditional. He actually makes some progress for a little bit...until the United States military gets involved due to thinking the Somalis kidnapped the kids and subsequently wipes them all out with modern weaponry. | |

The Losers: Captain Storm in the original World War II version becomes one of these after losing his memory (and an eye) to an explosion. He already had a wooden leg, it was a reasonable assumption. | |

Hidden Expedition 5: The Uncharted Islands features a mostly-Affably Evil group of pirates led by a man nicknamed Undertow. Justified because the islands in question are under a force field which grants its denizens rather long lives, at the price of never being able to leave. | |

Family Guy: Played for Laughs in "Long John Peter", when Peter goes from stealing a parrot as a pet from a veterinarian's office to dressing as a stereotypical pirate and hiring a pirate crew to finally going on the road and engaging a motorist in an epic swashbuckling fight, in the course of which Peter's car acquires a mast and sails. | |

Femforce foe Singapore Sal mixes this trope with Ruthless Modern Pirates in a deadly combination. She dresses and talks like a refugee from the Golden Age of Piracy, but has no qualms about using modern ships and weaponry to conduct her piracy. | |

Around the World in 80 Days: Downplayed as approximately 150-200 years too late, but the captain in USA believes he's a pirate which is why he's against letting Aouda on his ship, which causes him to be labeled as an eccentric and Fogg to see it as ridiculous. The last leg of the journey involves getting pirate items to satisfy his beliefs. | |

Dexter's Laboratory has an episode where Captain Ahab and his crew of merry swashbucklers, all dressed like classical pirates, kidnap Dee Dee. They serve mostly to contrast Dexter's robots and missiles with old-fashioned guns and plunder. | |
