the faithful bride...

So i was reading some script version of CoTBP, which appears to be an earlier version from before they filmed. its got a few extra scenes and lines, some changes of names, and the order of some of the scenes has changed.

something that REALLY interested me was this bit- its from just after Jack and Will arrive in Tortuga.

"Jack leads Will toward a pub: the Faithful Bride, the
emblem over the door a politically incorrect painting of a
smiling woman holding a bouquet in her chained-and-manacled
hands."

Now if that isnt saying something about these writer's view of marriage, i dont know what does.... 😄

oh my goodness where did this bloody script come from??? its the imsdb version. Have you guys read it??? check out THIS scene!!!!!!!

Elizabeth jumps up, silver platter in hand, ready to swing
-Jack catches her before she can do any damage. They
recognize each other.

ELIZABETH
You?!

JACK
Me!

ELIZABETH
You're in league with Barbossa!

JACK
No, I'm -- rescuing you.

Elizabeth can't comprehend that one.

ELIZABETH
You?!

Will gains his footing in the rubble.

WILL
Miss Swann! We're here to rescue
you!
(sounds of pursuit,
approaching)
It's going badly!

JACK
This way!

They race off, toward a bit of moonlight -

EXT. ISLA DE MUERTE - NIGHT

The three climb up a dark crevasse that leads out onto the
island. Will takes Elizabeth's hand, helps her.

WILL
I'm glad we got here in time.

ELIZABETH
Truthfully -- you were a bit late.

JACK
The trick isn't getting here, it's
getting away.

As if on cue, they hear the yells of pirates, coming
closer. They take off -

EXT. ISLA DE MUERTE - CLEARING - NIGHT

The three race through the rocks, the sounds of pursuit
close behind. Suddenly Jack stops.

ELIZABETH
Come on!

JACK

No. This won't work.
(a quick decision)
I'll stay behind, and fight them.
You go on.

Will and Elizabeth stare at him.

WILL
No.

JACK
I'll lead them away.

The sounds are closer.

JACK (CONT'D)
Go to the opposite end of the
island, and signal the ship. I'll
keep 'em busy.

WILL
Are you sure? Jack -- this is not
something you have to do.

JACK
I'm sure. When you've led the kind
of life I have, there are debts
that must be paid. Maybe I can
balance the scales a little.

Will nods, hesitates... gives Jack his sword - - now Jack
has two, ..one for each hand. Elizabeth gives him a quick
kiss.

Will and Elizabeth race away, and are gone.

Jack watches them for a moment, turns to face the pirates.
He sticks the two swords in the ground, crossed. Leans
casually against a rock.

A group of pirates round a corner, cutlasses drawn, ready
to fight -- but Jack raises his hand.

JACK (CONT'D)
I invoke the right of parlay,
according to the Code of the
Brethren, set down by the pirates
Morgan and Bartholomew...

EXT. ISLA DE MUERTE - NIGHT

Jack stands before Barbossa, surrounded by pirates. Jack
has a wide smile on his face -- and Barbossa doesn't like
it.

BARBOSSA
I'm inclined to kill you now, Jack
Sparrow, without so much as a
word, if you don't lose that grin
from your face.

Jack's smile remains. Barbossa puts a hand to his cutlass -

JACK
The woman's blood didn't work, did
it?

Barbossa hesitates.

OkAY CAN YOU BELIEVE THAT SCENE?!?!?! i cant believe the way they changed it sooooo much for the filming!!!!!! Liz kissed Jack?!?!?! Woah. this is intense. i cant believe i havent read this before!!!! i cant believe this is what it was originally spose to be!!!!

HOLY CRAP IT JUST GETS BETTER AND BETTER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! CHECK THIS OUT!!!!!!!!!!

BARBOSSA (CONT'D)
Pintel ... set sail. If this fool plan
is to work, we'll need the medallion,
and that means catching the ship which
brought 'em here.

Jack is caught completely off guard. For the first time,
his smile fades.

JACK
What -- you don't have the medallion?

BARBOSSA
That fool woman took it. You be
careful around her, Jack -- she's
pretty enough, she'll steal your
heart -- but pure evil inside.

JACK
I'll watch my back.

BARBOSSA
Bosun! Set up Mr. Sparrow's quarters,
nice and fine ... in the brig.
(to Jack, a smile)
Meaning no disrespect, of course.

Jack nods, and is taken away. Barbossa stares after him,
not hiding his mistrust.

DID YOU CATCH BARBOSSA's FLIPPING COMMENT ABOUT LIZ?!?@&*&E

heres the link to it, guys. im like FREAKING OUT...
http://www.imsdb.com/scripts/Pirates-of-the-Caribbean.html

oooo interesting.....

so where did you find the script?? i rele want to read it!!!

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH heres more:

Elizabeth holds the medallion, and finishes her tale:

ELIZABETH
... you were in danger ... so I took
the medallion. And I've kept it ever
since. They thought I was you, that
they needed my blood. And it didn't
work.

She hands him the medallion.

WILL
Why would my father send this to me?

ELIZABETH
To keep it away from them? No pirate
would sail to London, for fear of
Execution Dock.

WILL
If I had known-

ELIZABETH
(anticipating him)
-- then we never would have met.

Will nods. They hold each other's gaze a moment. Will turns
away first, leans on the rail. Looks out to sea, back the
direction they came.

WILL
I can't believe he would make such
a sacrifice for us.

ELIZABETH
I guess you can never truly know
someone else's heart.

Will glances at her, and nods.

I put the link up there, here it is again. this is the script before they filmed it. THIS MAKES IT ALLL ABOUT JACK AND FLIPPING LIZ> omgsh.
http://www.imsdb.com/scripts/Pirates-of-the-Caribbean.html

YAY! cant wait to read it!!!

whoa...

GUYS THIS CHANGES EVERYTHING.

omgsh.

here's another great bit... they actually talk about this one in the commentary

NORRINGTON
You may seclude yourself in my
cabin. I'm afraid we do not have
any ladies' clothing aboard.

ELIZABETH
Then I can wear men's clothing.

NORRINGTON
That would hardly be proper.

ELIZABETH
Well, I am not going to stay
hidden in a some cabin, 80 I
suppose it's going to be heaving
bosoms and bare ankles for the
remainder of the voyage!

Norrington is exasperated, but then can't help but grin -
this is exactly why he loves her. She grins back at him -
she's not going to change.

I LOVE IT I LOVE IT!!
ahh now i'm sooo excited for 3!

Check this part out. It's when Barbosa makes Liz and Jack walk the plank.

We follow Elizabeth amid foam and bubbles as she PLUNGES
down

through the water. Blue and clear, with streaks of sunlight
cutting down; bright coral and tropical fish, and a lovely
young woman in a silk dress. .. if it weren't for the
mortal danger, the scene could be described as gorgeous.

Elizabeth spots Jack, below her now, sinking, struggling.
She swims down ... unties his bonds.

Elizabeth starts for the surface. Inexplicably, Jack swims
the other way, further down into the depths.

EXT. CARIBBEAN SEA - DAY

Elizabeth breaks the surface, looks around. And then,
finally Jack appears, sucking in air. He shows what he went
after: his pistol. He tucks it into his shirt.

Looks like Liz saved his life and came into very close contact with him. And I have another. This is slightly different from the deleted scene.

ELIZABETH (CONT'D)
(under her breath)
Drink up me hearties, yo ho...

JACK
What? What was that?
(Elizabeth smiles)
Something funny, Miss Swann? share.
Please,

ELIZABETH
Nothing ... it's nothing. Just ...
I'm reminded of a song I learned
as a child. A song about pirates.

JACK
I know a lot of songs about pirates,
but none I'd teach a child. Let's hear
it.

ELIZABETH
Oh, no ... it's silly. Back in
England we didn't know a thing
about pirates, really. They seemed
so romantic and daring -

Jack likes the way that sounds.

ELIZABETH (CONT'D)
(looks at him)
That was before I met one, of
course.

Jack likes the way that sounds! He's getting into her. Awwwww.

OHH!! Big news, everyone! We all saw the climax at the first movie where Barbosa spots Liz running towards the chest and gets his gun ready to shoot her, only Jack shoots him first, right? Well, this was what was originally going to happen.

BARBOSSA
So what now, Jack Sparrow? Are we
to be two immortals, locked in
epic battle until the trumpets of
Judgment Day?

JACK
Or you could surrender.

He shoves Barbossa back, out of the moonlight. Barbossa
stalks the room, his attention focused on Jack.

BARBOSSA
Or I could chain you to a
cannonball and drop you in the
deepest part of the ocean, where
you can contemplate your folly
forever.

Barbossa charges -

A SHOT RINGS OUT -

They changed it so he would rescue Liz! This is somewhat of a clue, don't you think?

indeed

YES.

I think the most telling parts for me, were Barbossa's line:
BARBOSSA
That fool woman took it. You be
careful around her, Jack -- she's
pretty enough, she'll steal your
heart --

And the part where Jack actually saves Will and Liz in the cave and Liz gives him a kiss, and then she and Will talk about "never knowing a person's true heart..."

OMGSH. i cant believe we JUST found this. Im like freaking out.

and the thing is, story lines that they had to abandon in 1 they brought back in 2... Like the idea of Norrington turning pirate. So that makes me think they will want to bring all the story lines they originally couldnt fit in back in 3... ya know????

oh gosh. i cant believe it. If i hadnt seen 1, and just read this script, i would be convinced jack and liz ended up together.

this is AMAZING> OMGSH> WOW> 😉

awesome

OOOOOO and i also loved this bit:
JACK
I'm sure. When you've led the kind
of life I have, there are debts
that must be paid. Maybe I can
balance the scales a little.

Will nods, hesitates... gives Jack his sword - - now Jack
has two, ..one for each hand. Elizabeth gives him a quick
kiss.

Will and Elizabeth race away, and are gone.

Jack watches them for a moment, turns to face the pirates.
He sticks the two swords in the ground, crossed. Leans
casually against a rock.

A group of pirates round a corner, cutlasses drawn, ready
to fight -- but Jack raises his hand.

JACK (CONT'D)
I invoke the right of parlay,
according to the Code of the
Brethren, set down by the pirates
Morgan and Bartholomew...

I LOVE how he uses the same exact line Elizabeth used. its PERFECT. peas in a pod.

Wow. I didn't even catch that. They are so similar. How can they not belong together?

perhaps the same line was used to show their minds work the same

by this script, they belong together.

im so confused.

what is disney trying to pull here?!

?
