I have kind of gone back and forth on the W/E vs. J/E and I think that I have come to the conclusion that Will finally stabs the heart and becomes Captain of the Flying Dutchman and leaves Liz behind.
Now, Lizzy totally messed over Norington in COTBP when she agreed to accept his proposal on the Dauntless. She even acknowledes her duplicity to Jack in the "peas in a pod" scene when she told Jack she noticed he did not tell Norrington about the curse and Jack responded he noticed she didn't either. She then told Jack, "If I had, he wouldn't have gone." Jack's reply, "You could have gotten him drunk".
This shows her pirate self and Jerry, T/T, and Gore all cut the scene and IMO they wanted to build a tremendous, thunderous climax for DMC with her pursuing a kiss with Jack. When he tells everyone to abandon ship, everyone is getting in the long boat, but Liz. As she turns, she cocks that left eyebrow and looks at Jack in a very determined way. I think she was thinking that he had to stay on the Pearl and she was going to make sure he did and she duped him too with the kiss.
So far she has duped any man interested in her except for Will. According to T/T this is not a movie about pirates, IT IS A PIRATE MOVIE. So what better way to keep the interest going than to PIRATE our feelings.
I predict Liz won't wind up with anyone at the end of AWE.
