How did you like Part 3?

I liked it actually, but there are some exceptions to everything and the one thing I did not like was that Jack was portrayed as being intimidated or borderline coward after being rescued. Like he couldn't even command his ship when Barbossa was around. Maybe not that but like a little boy who couldn't get it together. I don't know, it is so hard to explain. Maybe he played it too much like a dufuss, which to me was not the confident Jack we met sailing into Port Royal in a drowning dingy.

Basicly I think that Elizabeth knew at the moment Jack voted to make her Pirate King how much he loved her and she didn't want to address that issue because she loved Will so much. She tried in a Jack-way to make amends at the end when she started to kiss Jack good-bye and he crossed his arms and said something about once was enough for him.She also told him it would never have worked between them and that was the Lizzy version of what Jack said to her at Fort Royal before he fell over the parapet in COTBP. I felt that her look at him in that moment said "another place another time Jack it would be you and me."

I have tickets for tonight, too so, I guess I will try to either re-evaluate my opinion or develope some new ones.

My first reaction was I really liked it. If I were not such a Sparrabether then I might have liked it even better. There was clapping and chearing at the end in the theatre and those ppl probably don't ship either way.
I feel like Norrington's death was unnecessary. They could have used him for another plot twist or betrayal rather than kill him off. And the last scene w/him and Lizzy was too campy.
The last scene before the credits with Will and Lizzy saying goodbye was just incredible. As he was leaving and trying to put on a boot he said he needed his other one too and the camera pans to Lizzy's leg with the boot on it and then Will takes the boot off and caresses her leg very lovingly. There left no doubt for me whose child was with Lizzy in the final shot.

I think the thing I am having trouble with is that there were 3 movies and it just doesn't work for me with Jack's feelings in mind, but last night when I got home, I realized that if you look at 2 and 3 as basicly one film then it is easier to see the progression of W/L rather than J/L.

DMC stopped in the middle of the progression with the intents of making us dangle for a J/E ending, like stopping in the middle of a scene. But, if you were to see them together, then you would realize there never was a J/L ending in the making. I guess when I realized that is when I finally cried myself to sleep last night. Talk about Pirates. This whole trilogy just pirated my time, feelings and emotions.

IMHO if you can put J/L totally aside, then it may be one of the most incredable movies you will ever see in your lifetime because the plots, twists, scenes, dialogue, actors, characters and Johnny Depp are the best. That's what I am going to do tonight.

Maybe it will work this time.

thanks Calypso.I go and watch it soon.

ok so there are prolly about a million of these already but, tell me you all saw pirates last night!! was it not amazing! how many time did you get turned on because of the hotness of the guys??? ok and elizabeth, she had kissed how many guys now?? jack, will, norrington.....ok and how hot was will at the end? OMG! ok so tell me what you guys all thought and any pros and cons you want to bring up...and oh, btw the critics hated it...(they must be on drugs or something)...anyways, let me know!

I haven't been on this forum in ages, mostly because I was afraid of finding out spoilers to the film, but also because I've been busy with revision, but as I have now seen it I have returned!

I really did enjoy the film. I thought it was far better than the second, and I did really like that one (but not as much as the first). I also didn't think this one was as good as the first but that one is entirely different to the second two and any one they made would never beat it.

I really wasn't expecting the ending which was obviously a good thing. It's a really sad thought knowing they're not properly together 🙁 I know many of you won't feel the same as me on that one but as you might remember (well you probably don't) I was always for Will and Elizabeth. As someone mentioned, the scene where he caresses her leg is so beautiful. It made it so sad when he had to leave and then she runs over to kiss him. Awww I'm gonna cry now haha. I really liked their marriage scene too.

I agree with the Norrington thing also. He wasn't in it very long at all, he didn't really do anything except save them. He just became good again all of a sudden and then he was killed. It was still sad that he died though 'cause I love Norrington 🙁 I did want him to become good (sorry for the use of word I don't really know what else to say) though so I'm glad that happened.

I liked Beckett's death scene, did anyone else think the same?

Oh and I also like the fact it ended the same as the first one. I love the references that they put it in from the first film. There was still a load about rum in this one aswell which I suppose does get a bit tiring but things like that don't really bother me.

The battle at the end was a great way to end it I think. I can't really remember any specfic parts that I loved at the moment but when I see it again I might come back on here to comment on them. It was all amazing anyway.

I can't wait to see it again. I'll be seeing it at least two more times as one of my friends couldn't go yesterday and I'll be seeing it with my mum too. Yay!

The movie was awesome! I want to go see it again. I am unhappy that I didn't get to see what was shown after the credits its killing me!!

i havent seen it yet..but im plannin to!!!! 🙂🙂😄😄

I thought that the movie was a little bit slow to start off with, but it picked up speed half-way in. You know, when Jack came into it. A lot of the stuff was really confusing at the beginning but all of it was eventually explained.... to an extent. I think that the movie was a bit of a disappointment, but it was better than the second POTC, but no where near as good as the first.

I would rather have seen Norrington in a plot twist in which he killed, well wtf I just forgot his name, anyway the dude who killed Gov Swann, you know Becketts lacky. Anyway, I think in the scene where Norrington dies, he should have been discovered helping Lizzy by what's his name and then Norrington kills him. It would have added more to his credibility of being the upright good man he always was and would reaffirm the line Gov Swann spoke at the end of COTBP in which he asked Norrington "to pursue them is an act of piracy?" Why did they have Bootstrap kill him, I can't get that? That just doesn't work for me. Then it would have been a race between Norrington and Jack to see who killed Beckett first. Norrinton's reasoning would be not only for revenge for killing Gov Swann, but for disgracing the crowns representation in the Caribbean through EITC. If there is a POTC4, there is no feared pirate hunter to look for Jack. The fourth with probably only be Pentel, Regetti, the monkey, the parrott and no Jack anyway.

Who rescued the Poochie? When did he start carrying the keys to the Pirate Codex book?

I still didn't get if Bootstraps curse was lifted with Will's death, then how could Bootstrap go under water for long periods again without drowning?

I thought DJ cut him heart out because of the pain for loving Tia Dalma not because he was the Captain of the Flying Dutchman. So why did Bootstrap cut out Will's heart. That left me going ?????

Ok, so someone tell me what I missed. And is the monkey still undead?

Precisely the point about AWE. Too many loopholes in the plot. Not as well-written and tight like CoTBP.

The Jack/Liz/Will story arc was crap. What triangle? As for seeing DMC and AWE together to see that Will/Liz IS the couple - that's bullshit 'cos I can see Sparrabeth since CotBP! Jack/Liz feelings and emotions were totally cut out like DJ's heart! Hardly any moments or decent conversation between them at all unlike CotBP and DMC and so unlike the junior novel too and some people say even the script! Why?????

Tia Dalma/Calypso thing - anticlimax! Why a giant Tia Dalma and then nothing? But I like the chemistry between her and Davy Jones when they met in the Pearl's brig.

The best part of show: Parachute scene with Jack/Liz - unspoken but so much meaning and chemistry!!!!!!!!!!

Big battle was fun but too much CGI. Loved Jack and Davy Jones' fighting.

Unnecessary part of the show: Will and Liz in beach after sex scene. They already married on the Pearl - what more does Disney want to shove down our throats?

I'm pretty sure the monkey is still undead seeing as he didn't die when he was put in the cannon. Haha I was laughing my head off at that bit. Plus there'd be no reason why he wasn't still undead.

Didn't Will's heart had to be cut out because whoever stabbed the heart had to become the captain of the Flying Dutchman which must mean his heart had to be cut out.. for some reason. I might be wrong 'cause I'm not entirely sure, I'll feel stupid if I am but nevermind haha. But yeah Davy Jones did cut his heart out because he loved Tia Dalma so hmm. Someone else will have to explain.

Edit: Oh crap sorry people I didn't realise I hadn't edited the other post to be this one so now there are two.. I didn't mean to sorry.

And sorry I forgot to put spoiler things on 'cause I assumed people would know there would be spoilers 🙁 Oh no I feel bad now.

hahaha ivebeendepped43. it was a glorious sight!! haha. trampslady, did you actually run up to the screen!? that's amazing!! haha.

has anyone heard about a 4th supposedly johnnys all for it but keira says she's done. idk about orlando. but i haven't heard it from either of their mouths, just heard about it. and supposedly jerry is done too? but he's the producer- not the director. so the show could still go on, right? but. AH! the more i think about it, the more i like it! everyone says it was a cliffhanger but i don't really think it was.

Calypso:

The CORRUPTION of DJ has been lifted...the 'curse' technically hasn't. All the pirates are still dead, technically. They can either serve with Will on the Dutchman or move on.

Also, I don't think that Will is taking the Dutchman underwater so much as he is moving into a 'between' place to ferry souls.

I agree about Norrington. He had such an interesting character arc, and they really rushed through it. I think they could have done a lot more with him if they had bothered to cut back some of the battle sequences and some of Barbossa's scenes (while Barbossa is entertaining, I felt like he had almost too much screen time).

As for Will's heart, Davy Jones put his own curse upon the Dutchman, so that whoever became the next captain had to have their heart cut out. Bootstrap cut Will's heart out not just because the Dutchman needed a heart, but also because Will was dead and in a weird way, losing his heart was the only way to save his life.

Try wrapping your head around that once!

I know Sparrabethers will hate me for saying this, but I think that there was plenty of J/E interaction, and it was done well. Yes, he had some feelings for Liz after she kissed him and chained him up, but then look at all the horrible suffering he went through after he went to the Locker.

I don't blame Jack for wanting to keep his distance. If he'd been all lovey on her, I would have thought it was weird. Also, since Elizabeth was never in love with Jack, it made sense to not have her be hanging all over him.

I do think that one more scene with Will, Liz and Jack altogether would have been nice, but the image burned into my mind when I think of them right now is of Liz and Jack kneeling above Will as he's dying, Liz holding Will's head, Jack forcing Will's limp fingers to grip the knife...

What an incredible moment!!!

Yea, that scene was done very well. We saw Jack in front of Will and then Davy stab Will and immediately Jack responded to save Will because Lizzy loved Will so much just the expression on her face told it all. It was real eerie to see DJ and his crew turn back to human form.

I don't really care if this topic was here or not. The movie was great, but this ending with Will and Liz... and this kid... >< and Jack in the movie... why he was only SOMETIMES in this movie?!?!?!?! Why he was left in the end... For what point all people connected to this film made all this Sparrabeth stuff in DMC? (I know they're also Willabeth fans, I know, don't bother) Why? Oh, don't say I'm annoying. Everybody are alone now in this movie. Will's alone (okay, well, with FATHER), Elizabeth is far away from her (khy khy khy) dearly (khy, she kissed Jack passionately!) beloved and she is WAITING (10 years, and she didn't even get older!) with their child made once upon a time on the beach and Jack, alone, without Pearl... (btw - good point for them to make another movie, this stuff with map... but what kind of movie? story of this kid?!). And Jack - he made Elizabeth the king, he felt something for her, she fall for him (see DMC, see!), and now? she didn't even see Jack, she hasn't met him for all this time! She REALLY didn't like him?!?!?! Write here what you think. The special effects in movie were awesome. Places were beautiful... but... why I have to have BUT this BUT?! (but why is the rum gone?!?!?! XD)

eh, you can wisit my site www.awe.glt.pl if you want to, you can write there what you think also.

Jack, you're youppieyaay! ;___; you're still the one ;___;

Movie was awful in my opinion!
Jack was like a character of secondary importance....
Moreover Sparrabeth was totally killed...
I'm so sad... When I had backed home I started to cry... T____T
I'm totally depressed... Oh....

we must calm down..
but my heart is broken now, I can't see the movie again till I'll calm down

im hoping my feeling of indecisiveness and blahness will go away when i see it again..

Calypso: Jack responded to Will's death for Will's sake. He likes Will, respects him in his own way. He looked as if his own heart had been ripped out when Will was stabbed. I'm sure he did help Will because he wanted Liz to be happy too, of course. 😄

It's a great scene. 😄
