Ok, so there is a lot of unhappiness for various reasons. I figure we could use a thread where we can just rant. The rules are simple;
1. Rant away on whatever is bugging you about Pirates of the Caribbean and/or the franchise, including fans, fandom, the script, the actors, character development -- whatever is annoying you.
2. NO ARGUING OR PUTTING PEOPLE DOWN --- This is for people to just vent how they feel in a safe place without having someone being nasty to them.
Anyone want to go first? Or shall I?

I'm not unhappy about the movie, I'm unhappy about people being so obsessed in about shipping than the actual movie itself. They think all scenes, trailers, clips, books, MUST HAVE a sparrabeth. And where's nothing, people get dramatic.
"Oh no! No sparrabeth!"
"Omg! Willabeth! NO!"
Willabeth, Sparrabeth, Norribeth--whatever. This is pirates of the caribbean! Not shippy of the shipper caribbean.
LMAO!! i dont know why, but that made me laugh. hehe

And I appoligize in front of everybody if I made you, Surreal, unwelcomed or offended. I'm glad we made a truce. Whatever happens, happens in the movie. But let's be friends and remain that way.

Oh, one thing I want to rant about (not that I have seen this on this particular forum) is that some people bash TnT because they simply don't like how the characters developed in DMC.
Some people have actually gone so far as to say that TnT aren't creative enough, or aren't bright enough to write proper sequels. I have to tell you, very few things said about Pirates makes me as steamed as that.
It is not entirely the writers' faults on how things turned out in the films. The producer, director, cast and editors all play parts in how certain characters come across on-screen.
It's annoying and unfair of people to say such things -- especially if said 'critics' haven't actually managed to get anything published themselves.

What bugs me even more is that people have read the 100 page script, assumed that T+T are responsible, and promptly vow never to see AWE and to make voodoo dolls of T+T.
For crying out loud! They've already made their minds up without having first seen the movie that it sucks!
COME ON! How can you not love all that clips that we've seen so far?
I'd like to see a little more perspective from the fandom as a whole. I can't take the mood swings.
Not to mention, T+T have created, I think, a beyond brillant story. Sure, there are things we maybe don't want to happen (James death, cough) but at the end of the story, I know that it will all make sense in the end.
*pokes Mina gently* No arguing. Rant that you hate Will bashers, or bashing of Will, but no arguing. This is a safe haven for those who just want to let loose some steam without having the whole world jump on them for their opinion.

This idea that Will should be pleased to give up all his dreams of family and life and love to sail the seas for forever with his father is kind of stupid to me. Why oh why is it considered justified and "equal" for Will to have that happen while Jack and Elizabeth go off into the sunset.
Not that I am complaining about Jack/Elizabeth shipping. I'm just annoyed with the idea that it's ok for Will's character to be unfulfilled in order to justify J/E ending up together.
