    Someone’s probably already explained it but basically - Beckett tasked Jack with the job of transporting cargo, which turned out to be 100 slaves. This didn’t sit well with Jack and he decided to free them. That earned him the Pirate brand and Beckett had Jack’s ship ‘The Wicked Wench’ set alight and sunk. Jack then made a deal with Davy Jones to raise her from the depths, and he renamed her The Black Pearl after her now charred and blackened hull. The ‘100 souls’ that Jones demanded as payment was referring back to the slaves Jack freed.
    Davy Jones’ CGI is still amazing to this day !!

      Johnny doesn't like delivering a line or doing a scene exactly the same way twice. It keep the scene fresh and spontaneous. One notable line from the first movie was the addition of, "...from my back" to the bit where he says he made the rope from human hair. The members of Jack's crew had to hide our faces any number of times to keep from spoiling a shot by laughing.

    Barbossa was actually in the movie earlier than the reveal. When Tia Dalma released Jack the monkey, he immediately headed upstairs. For a brief moment, you can see Barbossa's boots on the bed laying down and the monkey jumps up on him. I also think that his hat is downstairs and Jack(or Will) picks it up. Tia Dalma has the same music locket that Davy Jones has alluding to them being former lovers(his heart as it were).

    I think that this one is my favorite out of the trilogy storyline. The third movie is incredibly epic but something about the bright colors of the cannibal island just does it for me. This one also includes one of my favorite fight scenes, that being the water wheel fight, which (if i recall correctly) was done practically! or at least mostly practical. a giant wheel rig was built.
    A couple quick notes about the branding and also the dental hygiene. Criminals of all kinds were usually branded based on what crime they committed because you couldn't cover it up easily. So when Beckett (the curly wig trading company guy) said he and jack had left their marks on each other, yes it was a brand. Jack used to work for Beckett (the East India Trading Company). Beckett tasked jack with transporting slaves (100 of them) but instead jack set them free, which made him a pirate for defying orders (so when everyone keeps saying that jack is the worst pirate ever, it is because he did the most un-pirate like thing but setting people free).
    Onto the dental hygiene and why everyone has rank teeth! Its scurvy or the early stages of scurvy. Heres the kicker though, at one point they DID in fact figure out that carrying citrus on board (usually oranges) would stave off the scurvy while at sea and they could seek better treatment or nutrition once at port. However! like a century or so passed (pirating started in the 1500s ish and went until like the mid 1800s ish) and everyone was like "why the heck do we have so many oranges on board?? it takes up so much space! lets ditch the oranges to carry more loot" and then scurvy came back.
    Why does the tentacle slime take away the black spot? The black spot is essentially a beacon for Davy Jones. Makes you easier for him to find. Jones took away the spot to give jack a bit more time to gather the souls he owed, but once he learned that jack had betrayed him by giving knowledge of the key to his heart to Will, the spot quickly returned so Jones could hunt jack down.
    I cannot wait for your reaction to the ending of this first story arc because it is heart wrenchingly good!

      The 3rd fil. Was the most expensive ever made at the time... by a wide margin. And it more than made it all back. I really wish Disney was willing to take chances on novel ideas again. The first had a reasonable budget and used it extremely well. And Disney was basically printing money with the Pirates brand.

    This film and the next really made me empathize with Mr. Jones. Love is a cruel mistress, and often times makes no logical sense. It's a cautionary lesson that the callous spectrum of love can even outweigh it's beautiful enveloping counterparts. It's also a huge parallel that synergizes with the Heisenberg uncertainty principle and the Observer effect. Which basically equates "anything you observe you end up changing it."
    In this case it's about love. We can't love something without changing it. Even if we knew all of the prerequisites, if we magically gained omnipotent knowledge and took steadfast action to stop changing something. The byproduct of us trying not to change the thing we love, changes it. It's a weird paradox that we destroy, change, consume, and edit anything and everything that we love. We can't not take pictures, take a keepsake, build a road to it, build a bridge across it, damn it up, marry it, take a piece of it home with you, touch it, feel it, taste it, smell it. It's a universal constant that we change whatever it is we love, be it for the better or worse, be it conscious or unconscious. Somehow we end up changing everything that we love, admire, respect, and long for.
    And if Calypso had been faithful and stayed true to her words and returned after 10 years to show Davey love again... she would have never of been herself, as free and as chaotic as the Ocean. It's a brutally honest love story about trying to change some one when you should just love them for what/who they are. Poor Davey Jones, the shear poetry of a man who can't die carving out his own heart for fear of the woman who tortured it. And now instead of ferrying souls to the under-verse he now keeps them for himself. Dark dark poetry.

    As mentioned on the previous Pirates reaction, I absolutely love this movie! This movie felt like a mix of adventure and horror in my opinion. I can still remember seeing this movie (which happened be my first Pirates of the Carribean movie) on the day when it came out back in 2006 and I was scared out of my mind. I was eight years old when I first saw that movie too. xD I felt like this movie is like a jump start for my love to learn of the mythologies from the sea and my introduction to watch horror movies, haha. I look forward to the next reaction to 'At World's End' and my second favorite Pirates of the Carribean movie, 'On Stranger Tides'!

  • @delix787
    @delix787 Рік тому +3

    For anybody who is always praising the first movie to be the best. I have been studying 1-3 and I constantly re-watch them. Pirates of the Caribbean does not go downhill in writing after the first movie. That is your business to believe that opinion everyone else goes with.
    Dead man’s chest gave the characters more depth! Elizabeth and William barely have anything to work with in the first movie. William’s relationship with his father that was hinted in the first movie of his father‘s existence. Paid off wonderfully. William’s character had way more in depth now and you have something to truly care about him for. You get both perspectives when you understand their Reunion! Bootstrap didn’t want Will to become a pirate like him, he wanted him to have a free life from the pirate life. William had a hard time accepting he was half Pirate but when he accepted his life and his father… He has a new journey to stab the heart of Davy Jones to set his father free.
    And you’re implying William is better in the first movie just because he wanted to save the girl he loved? William in the second movie now has Elizabeth as a lover. And now a new journey to rescue his father someone else he cares about. And this became a difficult situation when bootstrap told Elizabeth at world‘s end. William has to make a decision. Either don’t kill Davy Jones so he can be with you. Or he does kill Davy Jones and set me free, but he won’t be able to be on land for 10 years. If I were him I wouldn’t pick me! :/ The emotional weight on William’s character gets better and better.
    Elizabeth in the first movie was just a damsel in distress girl. She wasn’t useless in the first movie but you get the point. In the second movie, Elizabeth learned to wield a sword and she used it in the battle. She pulled a gun to Beckett‘s head.. went on her own journey to save will.
    She has grown a lot since the first movie who was just an innocent girl! Elizabeth got better as a character in 2 and 3!
    As for Jack sparrow. He does not become a joke at all in all 3 movies.
    Jack sparrow is at his best in the second movie and in the third movie. There was a moment in dead men’s chest… Where Jack didn’t know what he truly wanted so the compass couldn’t locate what he desired. So when Elizabeth went on her journey and then found Jack.. Jack used her for his advantage! He took advantage of Elizabeth’s feelings by telling her if you want to save Will you have to want to find the chest of Davy Jones! In order to get will back.. That’s why Jack gave her the compass. Jack knew if he couldn’t figure what he wanted out he was going to get it out of Elizabeth. Since Elizabeth now wants to find the chest of Davy Jones to save will. This gives Jack the huge opportunity to find the chest to stab the heart in it. But instead he wants to control DavyJones before killing him. Jack sparrow is not stupid! When will was trying to stab the heart towards the end of the second movie. Jack knows just because Davy Jones is dead, does not mean the Kraken will be stopped as well. And you’re telling me Jack is dumb after part 1??
    As for Beckett. He was a well executed villain who uses dialogue and negotiation to control people. The Reason why Beckett didn’t fire his cannons at worlds end. Was because it would be totally out of his character to use weapons. Beckett uses certain words to get through people and how to control them behind the scenes. Beckett at the end of the movie had nothing left to negotiate with. Davy Jones was dead, Jack sparrow is alive and well. Will Turner is now the new captain of the Flying Dutchman. Beckett had literally nothing to use against on people. He was caught in shocked and he decided to die..
    Anyways I could defend the Gore Verbinski’s Trilogy all night. His trilogy is an underrated trilogy. It had great character writing and amazing detail of its depth.
    Also Will vs Davy Jones!!! 😈😈😈
    when Will challenging Davy Jones.
    Davy Jones asks him how do you know about the key?
    Will replies and says, that's NOT part of the game is it? 😏 You can STILL walk away!! 😏
    As for pirates 4/5 they are not even Canon they are filler movies. The story ended at worlds end! ☠️

    • @LautaroMarchioliLeonelWM

      I agree with you totally. The first three movies of Pirates tell a complete story. Everything makes sense, every character arc, every decision, every set up, every payoff... its all there.
      The second and third movies do expand the world a lot, and the story becomes more interesting and intricate. The 4th and 5th don't have nowhere near the amount of world-building and carefully planned details as the original trilogy. Everything felt so purposeful. It's a shame no one could reach that level of quality in this franchise ever again.

    When they first get to Tia Dalma’s hut, there is a brief shot of Barbosa’s boots that most miss so she was already working on bringing him back. Geoffrey Rush and Johnny Depp are the best pirates hands down. Jack’s walk is to help him keep his sea legs when on land and some of his moves are a tribute to Keith Richards from the Stones.

    There's a whole video out there on UA-cam about the liar's dice game, it's actually really cool. The movie cut down that scene to the point where it's hard to follow, but there was a lot of in depth strategy going on. Basically, Bootstrap Bill made it impossible for Jones to win, but also very likely that he would lose.
    Was such a good movie, fun action scenes and the ending really made me happy. Barbosa was my favorite character. Yeah, Captain Jack was great, but Barbosa was played to perfection.
