    The movie “Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides” comes to mind.

    All the major characters are racing to find the Fountain of Youth, but all for different reasons. It’s a very entertaining movie.

    The spoiler reasons for each:

    Tap for spoiler

    The British want to find the Fountain to stop the Spanish from getting it.

    The Spanish want to find the Fountain to destroy it.

    Blackbeard wants to find the Fountain to use it to live forever.

    Blackbeard’s daughter wants the Fountain for her father.

    Jack Sparrow wants to find the Fountain so Blackbeard doesn’t kill him. (And also to save Blackbeard’s daughter.)

    Barbossa wants to find the Fountain so that he can kill Blackbeard. (And also he sides with the British to accomplish his revenge).
