Welcome to Gaia! ::

Saw the movie twice the first day! Well, the 25th. Once with my nephew, and once alone, at night. My favorite part is when Jack notices that they have to turn the ship upside down. "What's that?" (runs to side, some follow), "Ah! There!" (runs again) I love how they all start following him, wanting to see what's wrong, then catch on. "Now down, is up!" Or did he say, "Now up, is down!" Anyway, that was an awesome scene. And uh... The many Jack scenes kinda... Were weird. Lmao, and the Chicken Jack? Oh my god! I also liked when Jack left the cell, and the other Jacks say how he was such a charming man, that they missed him already...

I'm gonna go see the movie on each day I have off, until the DVD comes out! blaugh

That's got to be the best pirate I've ever seen!

So it would seem.

Yes, Norrington's death was indeed beautiful. heart
I too think the ending was well done, and that all the plots were fantastically tied together and concluded.

And to clear up the "Why isn't Will a fish, will he come back every 10 years and then what confusion...":
Someone else in another PotC topic found on Wikipedia, I think, that the director of the movie had cut some scenes at the editing that were ver clear about the Davy Jones curse:

Davy Jones had been chosen by Calypso to lead the deads on the other side with his ship, as a duty, during ten years. If he came back to her and she had been waiting for him after 10 years exactly, his curse would have been removed. But Tia Dalma did NOT come (she was likely in bed with Jack at this time!), hence why Davy Jones ripped off his heart and put it in a chest. He then became cursed, with the tentacles and all. And THEN he told the Pirate Lords how to emprison Calypso. Hency why Calypso was also betrayed by him. And why they don't get along anymore XD

Now, Will took over the leading-the-souls curse for 10 years, and Elizabeth DID wait for him, so his curse will be removed for good. And Calypso will likely choose another man from then on. So when Will comes back at the end of the credits, it is for good. And it ruins my no-sex-life-for-Liz theory! Thank God for her.

So yeah, the scene where it was said that "If the woman waits faithfully, the curse shall be broken" was removed. I don't see why at all, it helps understand the story so much!

Really? There's a deleted scene that says "If the woman waits faithfully, the curse will be removed"? I was under the impression that it was an eternity of servitude. The Dutchman needs a Captain --- who would captain it if Will was allowed to go free after 10 years? And I don't think Davy Jones cut out his heart because Tia Dalma/Calypso betrayed him, I think it was necessary to bind him to the Dutchman.

Otherwise, why else would Bootstrap have needed to cut out Will's heart as soon as Will stabbed Jones's heart? To replace it. The chest always needed a heart. I thought Davy Jones turned out the way he did because he refused to ferry souls to the other side once he was betrayed by Calypso.

Maybe I'm wrong, though. Tia Dalma does say in DMC that "him carved out his own heart."

Yeah, I don't know how well that can be explained. It's one of those "how do these unwashed pirates turn into skeleton zombies when the moonlight hits them?" sort of things. You just don't know. xp

Woo! Now they need a fourth movie!
*Walks around drinking his bottle of rum*

I had a suspicion about that and I didn't even see the lockets. X3


Anyway, this movie was a bit odd for me. I completely adored it of course, but I also hated it a bit at the same time. With the exception of only a few characters, every one was just pissing me off, especially Will. There was so much backstabbing I could barely keep up at all, but that was actually amusing. Will's persona almost ruined the entire movie for me though. He got redeemed slightly at the end, but he still annoyed me.

But a couple things. One, I thought that the marriage thing in the middle of the intense battle was corny as Hell. Worse than that Singapore pirate snapping off his toe. At least that was amusing. Although Barbosa yelling about kissing was amusing, non-surprisingly. Secondly, I'm assuming that the odd older gentleman was Jack's father, correct? Why did they even bother adding him into the mix? He was in it for less than three minutes. That just isn't right. Why introduce a character like that just to make a cameo appearance? It annoyed me too.

Oh...And Norrington's death was indeed beautiful. It still took all my willpower to not scream out his name in complete angst though.

And there's a thing at the end? Argh, I hate how they do that so much now-a-days since I never remember and when I do there isn't anything. I guess I'll just have to either go watch it again or wait until it comes out. -shrugs-

Yes, I adore those parts. whee
The peanut-obsessed one, the one with the goat, the chicken!Jack...It was all quite funny, especially those two that actually followed him. I loved it when they were all 'he's a charming fellow. I miss him already' or whatever.
