*long defening scream* I went to the midnight showing of the movie!!! At first, the ending made me very, very, infuriated. I stormed out of the theater and threw a tantrum right in the parking lot! How could they do that! They killed Jack, and I didn't even get to cry because of the emotional rollar coaster I was already riding. I was still angry at Elizabeth kissing Jack, then had to switch to utter shock when she decided to kill him, and then I had to laugh at how Jack looked at the Krakken (i know i didn't spell that right, i suck). I would be fine if they had given me a chance to be sad and mourn his loss, but they didn't!!
And to top it all off, Jack finally does the right thing, and gets killed for it! So then they set up the third movie by having stupid head Barbossa-face show up! I don't care if Jack is dead and rotting, he would NOT want to be saved by Barbossa! Barbossa robbed him of time he could have spent with that magnificant ship.
But enough anger. . .I was laughing so hard, I was squeaking at the theatre!
Yes. . .I squeak when I laugh too hard. I loved the crew reactions on both occasions, 1. the leaving behind of Jack's hat and 2. the rum?! It was most definately a work of genius. I especially enjoyed every minuet of Jack acting like a three year old!
But alas, I must make a slightly negative comment about the clothes. . .bare with me. Was I the ONLY one in the UNIVERSE that noticed that, scene by scene Jack's clothes went from dirty to clean, and also that his hair looked astonishingly fake? I weep for my poor observant eyes, for I would liked to have not noticed, at least not on the first viewing.
I'm going to see it again tonight. Yes, I AM shameless. . . |

Yeah, I just saw it today, and I have to agree, I was a bit angered by the ending. They expect me to wait patiently for 10 months to see what happens next? And Barbossa...WTF? Tres random. I thought it was fairly amusing that he bit into an apple at the end. In the first movie when Jack is on the Black Pearl and negotiating with Barbossa (Barbossa says, "So that leaves me standing on some beach watching you sail away on my ship with naught but a name and your word it's the one I need" etc.) he takes a bunch of apples, one of which he gives to Barbossa, who glares at it before throwing it angrily in the water. He was obviously a little upset about being left with food, which he can't eat due to being cursed.
I really don't think Elizabeth will leave Will for Jack. It wouldn't make much sense, and after the heart wrenching Will/Elizabeth saga of the first movie, it would be very cruel of the writers to just throw that down the drain. Jack and Elizabeth did have some questionable moments, but I don't think they're actually in love. It's my opinion that the compass pointed to Jack (when Elizabeth had it) because she wanted him to do the right thing, show that he's a good man, something like that. Maybe not though. Maybe I should reconsider my opinion.
But anyway, overall I thought it was decent, not quite as good as the first one - probably because we had way more expectations this time - but it held its own. I loved the idea of Norrington being a ruined man, joining a pirate crew. Very cool. The sea creature-people were probably some of the creepiest things I've ever seen, and Davey Jones made me just a little uneasy.

venkind said: hi ,
i just watched the movie and just cudnt get the ending. why does elizabeth kill jack after kissing>?
Oh my heck...
Like I said in some other post, Elizabeth kisses Jack to get him near the mast to cuff him. And Elizabeth doesn't kill Jack, Jack's still alive, plus, Jack freed himself anyway. He could have jumped off the ship right after, but didn't. The Captain always goes down with his ship. So, even if Elizabeth didn't cuff him, Jack most likely would have stayed for his ship and he most likely knew the Kracken was after him anyway.
The irony: the crew don't know Elizabeth cuffed him. She told them he chose to stay behind.
Now, Elizabeth doesn't know that Jack actually escaped from his cuffs. Now Elizabeth feels guilty, when she really shouldn't. Secret member of CD's D.A. #33
