interesting question.
I cant decide which character is mirroring davy, if i'm honest 🙁
its 1am in england and my brain is hurting...i swear i have never listened to russian so much in my life lmao! 😄
The three men who have a romantic interest in Elizabeth all seem to have a story that coincides with Davy Jones'.
Norrington's story best follows Jones', so I'm holding out hope that somehow he ends up captain of the Flying Dutchman, because I'd rather have that for him than for him to be *sniffle* dead.
I know Will becomes Captain, but I don't know if he ends up permamently the captain or if the curse for him is broken/lifted at some point. 😄
I think the bittersweetness comes from old legends dying, the old times dying. It's good that everyone moves forward, but in a way it's sad to leave all that behind. 😄
Besides the ending may be bittersweet simply for the fans because it's the last in the trilogy (so far, at least), so it may actually have no bearing on the storyline at all.
I have my doubts about Norrington popping up again, but I can always dream, right? 😄
consider, though, it's a huge plot. it's like massive and extremely complex. so there won't be loads of twists... because it's just not that flexible. it's like trying to maneuver a huge bulky vehicle. we know Will is becoming captain, we are fairly certain that Will and Liz get married, we know Jack survives, we know Tia is Calypso, etc. So there isn't a ton of room for twists, in my mind. Emotional ones, maybe.
Who says that she ends up with JACK?! It's not the most ideal location for him to re-ask her to marry him. And she's a smart girl; perhaps she knows that Will is going to do something in which he might get himself killed. Hence her hesitation. There is nothing anywhere in the laws of movies that says that Elizabeth ends up with Jack.
And it doesnt say Will. I know for sure that Jack will save her from Bekettes brand, it doesn't take a genious to see the expression on her face in Jacks presence. Point is that Jack desires her and you can't end a movie with Jack heart broken. Now it you take her away from Willl he still has his father. While Jack has nothing but his ship, that has caused him massive trouble throughout the movies.
