Reminiscent of Indiana Jones and Sky Captain. With some refinement this could evolve into a successful movie.
Characters need refinement. Major Danger needs the most refinement, in the current version he is simply too arrogant and self-centered to be believable. Simply tone down that aspect of his character. Danger's rejection of military service due to his father's experience is believable.
The Nazis characterization is satisfactory. Having the African American cook transition into a war-fighter is good, consider expanding this concept to include other crew making a similar transition.
Today's audiences seek more technical and historic accuracy. This might be accomplished during the scenes where we are introduced to the Pirate Airship.
I recommend dropping explicit references to Atlantis and let the audience draw their own conclusions on the identity of the civilization who codified their technical knowledge on the gold tablets.
Codifying knowledge of nuclear fission using Hieroglyphics is implausible - have the Hieroglyphics act as metadata to decode digital data written at microscopic level. Similar to First Contact, but using optical phenomena rather than radio signals.

The ship's pirate logo is perfect.
