AWE Ending

So you are saying that if the romance hadnt happened it would not have made 1 billion? Even though movie 1 made $655,000 and it didnt have even the fan base it did by movie 2?

and if DMC was exactly the same in theme as movie 1..it wouldnt even get to 655 million...its different to movie 1.if movie 2 was very W/J based..it would be "yawn" J/L kept it feeling fresh and obviously pushed it a tad further possibly..

which is why I can understand a more W/E based awe..but actually ending in pretty much the same place as movie 1??? I dunno..

I f Jack/Liz didnt happen....the movie probably wouldnt have captivated an audience the way it did!!! People fell in love with JACK/LIZ u cant help that!!!

Im sure a lot of people who think that is all the movie is based on would be disappointed too. Im sure there are people that would be disappointed if she DID end up with Jack. And Im sure that there are people that dont care as long as it's a good movie

going to get food.

but I think more people would be unhappy with Jack leaving alone and incomplete as a character in the trilogy

I know people think he's a happy man the way he is..but is that really true??

Movie 1 showed us that when Jack is forced to look at who he is under the shell...he's actually rather tragic and broken as a human being. He also doesnt like to face up to it..because it reveals he's actually alone and rather weak?? maybe that thought is a hard thing for Jack to cope with..

no human being can honestly say money buys them eternal happiness, short term happiness yes..but constantly living with only material things that cant love back can create a large void in people that just cant be filled with whores, ships, hats and rum..

maybe Jack should get a dog for companionship at least..or maybe the monkey?but why should our most loved character settle for that?

You know what really captivated me about DMC? I saw that they took-ed the characters to different places. IMO they were taken to places that I didn't expect to see. That idea captivated me, and I believe that a lot of people as well.

yes^^ as if its to get us used to possibly seeing it again but on a larger scale??? so if we see it it will be unexpected..yet make perfect sense to everything we have seen?? (which is what Terry actually said the ending of AWE will be)

to show us that Jack can give up freedom for someone he may love..and Elizabeth can give up Will in order to find the man she may indeed love..and Will can appear to let Liz go because its what she wants more? And he also can make a commitment to someone other than her,.

tell me is Jack leaving with two whores unexpected of his character?

or is that not how he REALLY ends it?

if this is to be a spectacular end to a spectacular trilogy..Jack leaving with two whores to be a pirate..is that really anything exciting..or even new?

but if he ends this on a note that says he's given up freedom for something more satisfying..that would be unexpected yes..but again make perfect sense because Jack somewhat did it in DMC anyway.

Jack leaving with the whores would have been expected in DMC, if Jack wouldn't have had those changes in the movie. But now that we have seen this side of him, we expect to see more of it in AWE.

true Jack leaving "happily" with two whores is unexpected because its actually inconsistent with everything we have seen from his character development in movie 1 and 2..

so IMO that cant be the true "unexpected, yet makes perfect sense to everything we have seen" ending to AWE..Because that ending doesn't actually make sense to everything we have already seen from him in the trilogy so far

Also..I know most people will view this line as a joke.I've said this before..but remember on KttC they were talking about the scene where Jack asks "did anyone come back because they missed me?" no one raises their hand but the monkey..

People who think Jack is 1 dimensional and thats all he ever was and will be, will laugh and think nothing of it. But people who can see deeper into the character of Jack..will actually see this as a sort of plea from Jack ...just wanting someone to care enough about him to miss him maybe??

its rare for Jack to show that he wants someone to care for him..as a matter of fact..that would be the first time he would have openly shown anything of the sort as a character.

Its showing you that Jack wants love IMO (probably always secretly has..yet its not so secret anymore possibly because he's yearning for it much more now)

Yea that scene is quite sad for me, only the monkey raises the hand. Jack wants somebody that cares for him, IMO this is what he is looking for. The monkey is the only one that shows some emotions for Jack, even though Jack has shot him quite a few times.
Ok the hell with everyone I am know rooting for a Jack/Monkey ending.

question. that interview floating around. what the hell is the big idea, with t and t wanting to develop will's character??? what were they going to do? talk about his sad childhood? oh gag me.

sorry dont mean to be hostile... but the only character whose history i want to see is the character with the INTERESTING history, ahem.

Terry kind of denied that comment made by JB over at wordplayer, stating "the bit about Will's line is not accurate".

What the hell is with you judging what T&T want to do with THEIR movie.

hahah sad but so true! i mean we know a major part of his history and im pretty bored with it...if he aint interesting now he wont be interesting anytime soon...unless he like committed murder or something but that would barley make him interetsing oh and he would probably be more hated but anywayz....the only one we REALLY wnat to know about is Jack because wat we know so far is fascinating and the more we know the more we will be fascinated by him! its just the way things work

chill out, bro. 🙂 they can do whatever the hell they want, clearly. i'm just a mopey college kid stuck between countries.

I am just constantly amazed at how one dimensional people can be. You arent looking at the big picture. Most of you seem to be blinded by ONE theme of the movie regardless how big it may or may not be.

I agree with Pirates life, actually.

A lot of these statements about TnT not knowing what they are doing or that they will suck if they don't make a J/E ending are immature, mean, and well...stupid.

They obviously know what they are doing, they have an idea of where their story needs to go, and even if we don't like it, it should be respected.
