i think part of jacks enigma is the fact that we dont know about his past...
We dont know if the stories are true or not, and thats why we love him.
IF they made a film about jacks past then Jaeh is right...he wouldnt be Jack anymore...
Part of the reason for why johnny loves jack is because he can make up little stories about him about the objects on his person, and have fun with it and just go with it...
if they brought up jacks past then he wouldn't be the same character anymore.
Like DJ when they made him cry.
That just made me think that they'd turned him into a complete and utter wuss, unlike DMC when he was someone to actually be feared lol
I definitely wouldn't want a prequel. It would ruin Jack's mystique, not to mention they'd probably need someone younger to play Sparrow and I don't want anyone besides Johnny Depp to play Jack.
I would much prefer to see something during the first ten years for Will and Liz's separation. The writers could finally explain whether the curse is broken or not, and we can see the silly pirates going after the Fountain of Youth.
I don't know if I'd even see a prequel style film, and I don't know how I'd feel about Pirates if Elizabeth and Will aren't in it. We'll see, I suppose. 😄
