 going to get a few pirates how do black scorpion scale up to other makes in particular the Musketeer miniatures jack sparrow look a like and which are the best rules for a hollywood style game.

Black Scorpion are my favourite sculpts but they are big. Depends how picky you are as to whether they work with Mr Sparrow.
Hopefully someone will have both and do you a comparion shot.

As far as rules go, you can't do any better than Gloire / Under the Black Flag.

Gloire/UTBF is good, and so is "And One For All!" by Eureka.  It's free.

I have the Musketeer Jack Sparrow aqnd he is more in scale with Artizan or Foundry. Black Scorpion will tower over him.

Gloire and Under the Black Flag are nice.  You might consider also buying the Savage Worlds Pirates of the Carribean book, which you can likely find and look at in a local game shop.  The scale is the same, just a few figures for that Hollywood style action, but the systems for dicing are different.  Gloire uses d10 and shifts of 10%.  Savage Worlds uses d4, d6, d8, d10, and d12 with odds shifts between the dice sizes which are easy to do, but slightly harder to compute in your head (if you want to bother computing odds).  Because both game systems are the same scale, you can borrow and easilly translate rules, characters, skills, and scenarios between the two. Actually, the skill sets are similar but with different names.  I bought both game systems.
