yep. I think we've just about uncovered every mystery, analyzed every theory and torn apart every scene involving Jack and Lizzie from top to botton. I can't think of anything else to uncover, analyze or even conjure up for that matter. I'm all pirated-out when it comes to analyzing, etc...but I'm not tired of looking at Johnny, Jack and Elizabeth....I could watch the scenes of them over and over and over....and look at the screencaps, etc...I'm getting really nervous about April 10th and what the novelization will reveal to us.....maybe i should cut myself off and never come here again and just wait until may and be left in the dark, just as I was for DMC..............but not gonna happen, I can't stay away, this place is like a bad drug addiction..I just can't seem to leave it alone...I've tried, I even took about a month's break last november and december...and then somehow I go hooked again when i decided to check in just after the new year and see what was abuzz.....

We should make a pact then not to read the book. That way we can visit the forum all we want but we'll be surprised for the movie. You guys don't want to read some half-ass novelization and miss out on all the visuals do you? Plus, books leave out film twists. Ever seen the new Planet of the Apes? The book ends at a different place than the movie, which is smart. I think this thread proves nothing beats actually watching and soaking it all in.

i know....I just can't get why they would release the novelization this far in advance of the movie....especially a movie they have kept under such tight raps, a movie that it took forever to reveal the trailer and a movie they decided was so kick-ass it had to have a world-wide release date....so maybe the novel won't reveal anything, afteralll...

Okay, I have a request for someone to look for. We've concluded that Norrington is spying on Jack and Liz during Curiosity, so is he spying on anyone any other time? I know he overhears the letters of mark being talked about, but is he in the background at any time he shouldn't be? Makes me wonder.
I don't think James is technically spying at any of those times. I think he just happens to be there, and he watches/listens because it's human nature.

Good points all around. I just think his "ghost" image is creepy. Anyone else have any ideas of things to find? Usually if you pause it at almost any time, something catches the eye. These are detail-oriented movies. My thread must not die!
I don't think I posted this observation here, so I'll give it a shot...
Right after Will wakes up on the Pearl, he and Elizabeth talks, and then the camera goes to Jack and Gibbs. However, the scene with Will and Elizabeth is continued in the background. If you watch, Elizabeth kind of cradles Will in her arms, gently touches the scar on his temple from DJ's crew, and then helps him to sit up.
It's a nice moment.
Oh, and speaking of Will...did anyone notice in CotBP when Will breaks off the candle-stick thingie that he looks like he's about to stick the broken part into his pocket? I always giggle at that part, and no one else seems to find it as funny as I do. Maybe it's because it reminds me of something I'd do.

It also parallels the opening of COTBP. As a child, she pulls his hair off his forehead before he wakes up. Their positions are the same too, she's looking down on him i.e. (I'm watching over you, Will).

and that is the jist of their relationship...she feels responsible for will, Will is all she has ever known, it is sweet and kind of motherly, if you ask me..."i'm watching over you, Will Turner"....it's been her lif's mission to watch over Will.....

Another thing I noticed on Elizabeth in Tortuga...her back is all muddy. Hmm, is it possible that our favorite ex-Naval officer was leaning against her for support in between her getting him out of the pig-sty and them going to the Pearl?
Also, it may not mean anything, but it was brought up for discussion on another forum on how interesting it is that Norrington was handed a goat. Symbolism, perhaps, for becoming a 'scapegoat' of sorts to save Elizabeth?

Well, he was pretty drunk, so it seems likely. Or maybe they had a mud wrestling fight...Where are you doing with this, Surreal?
Well, I did some research on it because let's face it, I have a problem. Goats were frequently sacrificed animals in religious offerings, so that might mean something. In Mason symbolism, goats are the symbol of fertility. Hmmmm....
