    A common misconception people get about this movie is Elizabeth’s corset. The movie isn’t implying that they were worn that way, Elizabeth just wasn’t used to wearing that particular kind of corset (it’s imported from Paris where they were worn to be cinched around the waist). Her maids likely put it on incorrectly and put it on too tight.

    Jack's run is cause he has a permanent case of sea legs. When your out at sea the boats rocking so you're always trying to stay balanced, eventually you get used to it but when you come ashore your body feels like it's still swaying. That's why Jack walks fine on boats but on land he walks like he does.

      Grew up in California so I’ve been to Disneyland a dozen+ times since I was a little kid. Pirates of the Caribbean was always hands down my favorite ride. I’ve loved pirates in general since I was a little girl growing up on the Goonies and various other pirate media. Other kids wanted to be a firefighter when they grew up, or a ballerina, or an astronaut. All I ever wanted to be was a pirate 😂

    The exchange between Norrington and Jack - 'One small act is not enough to redeem a man' 'But it is enough to condemn him...' - is the biggest hint at Jack's backstory we get. It's never fully explained, but Jack's origin is the connective tissue between the first 3.

    It always surprises me a little how many people dont immediately recognize this as a totally fantastical idea because it would never work in real life 😂
    Fun and creative idea for a movie that involves fantasy elements anyways, but in real life that’s way too much air and they would float to the surface. I dont blame people, not everyone grew up going to the beach every weekend or had access to a swimming pool. But just from general experience, even trying to take a bucket of air to the bottom of the swimming pool was quite difficult and took like 3-4 of us kids to manage. The body is naturally quite buoyant on it’s own, especially if you’re holding your breath and the bucket of air on top of it makes it quite the challenge to take it to the bottom. And that was just a bucket. That much air in a (wooden as well) dinghy they would definitely float to the surface 😆

    There are no words to express what Amber Heard did to Johnny. His courage to lay out his whole life bare in order to prove that she was a vicious and malicious liar is exemplarary.
    The fact that he had to even do that is so horrible and embarassing, and we (all normal humans with a heart and a brain) were all so happy to see his vindication and the utter destruction of her reputation. She had to change her name and leave the country because what she did was so bad.

The most important thing, at least to me, is that people watch and make up their own opinions as opposed to not watching because they heard it's bad from others. I see those kinds of comments ALL the time on these reaction videos and it makes no sense to me.

    Also if you do watch the sequels the 2nd movie Dead Man's Chest and the 3rd movie At World's End are two parts to one whole story. Kind of like how they split the 7th Harry Potter movie The Deathly Hollows into two parts but it's one whole story.

      Actually, this film score was composed by Klaus Badelt, and Hans Zimmer did the following films.
      But you’re right, he is incredible!

      @@loveanddreambig I saw a documentary where Hans Zimmer states he started working on the score, and wrote most of what would become the main themes, but he was also working on another project (might have been Gladiator) and did not have time to dedicate to the project. He then recommended Klaus and Klaus took over what Hans had already composed. He was even gracious enough to give Klaus the credit. This is why some sections of the Pirates of the Caribbean score sounds very similar to Crimson Tide, Hunt for Red October, and Gladiator.

    These are great movies. They're definitely ones where you have to watch the first three. You'll get mixed responses on if 4 and 5 are worth it, but while not as good as the first three, they're still solid pirate/action/comedy movies.

    If you like movies about sailing ships and sea battles you should watch Master and Commander. It's more historical and ultra-realistic.

    This is a fun and wild swashbuckling adventure film!
    Originally Steven Spielberg was going to direct the film, but had to drop out in order to make Minority Report and Catch Me If You Can, both released in 2002.
    Hugh Jackman, Michael Keaton, Robin Williams,Harrison Ford, Robert DeNiro, Christopher Walken, Steve Martin, Jim Carrey, Matthew McConaughey, and Cary Elwes were considered for Jack Sparrow until Johnny Depp was picked.
    Ben Peyton, Christian Bale, Chris Masterson, Tobey Maguire, and Jude Law were considered for Will Turner.
    Amanda Bynes, Jessica Alba and Jaimie Alexander were considered for Elizabeth Swann.
    Tom Wilkinson RIP, and Sylvester McCoy of Doctor Who fame, were considered for Governor Swann.

    Trivia for Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl (for James and anybody else interested in knowing)
    - Released in 2003; directed by Gore Verbinski; written by Ted Elliott and Terry Rossio.
    - Nominated for 5 Oscars: Best Actor in a Leading Role (Johnny Depp as Captain Jack Sparrow); Best Makeup; Best Sound Mixing; Best Sound Editing; Best Visual Effects. However, it didn't win in any category. At the Screen Actors Guild (SAG) Awards, Johnny Depp won the award for Best Actor.
    - Keira Knightley (Elizabeth Swann) was fresh off the British soccer movie "Bend It Like Beckham" the previous year, and did the Christmas film "Love Actually" later in 2003.
    - The film was based on the attraction found at Disney theme parks.
    - Filming took place both on sound stages in Los Angeles, and primarily in the Caribbean island nation called Saint Vincent and the Grenadines.
    - This is the first Disney film to be rated PG-13 by the MPAA.
    - Curse of the Black Pearl grossed $654.3 million, making it the fourth-highest grossing film in 2003.
    - Ewan McGregor (Obi-Wan Kenobi in the prequel trilogy), Heath Ledger (the son from "The Patriot"), and Christian Bale (the twin magician from "The Prestige") were considered for the role of Will Turner before Orlando Bloom was cast. Bloom auditioned after it was recommended to him by Geoffrey Rush (Barbossa), while the two were doing another film together. Bloom was also doing the "Lord of the Rings" trilogy at the same time, so his name would have had some weight to it.
    - The role of Captain Jack Sparrow was originally written for Hugh Jackman (also from "The Prestige" as the magician who can clone himself) However, since Jackman is Australian, Disney executives felt he wouldn't have enough name recognition.
    - Johnny Depp based his performance primarily off of Keith Richards from The Rolling Stones, after Depp did research on 18th-century pirates and discovering there was a "rock star" vibe to them. It was Depp's idea for Jack Sparrow to have gold teeth.
    - Depp was also excited that Jonathan Pryce was cast as Governor Swann; Depp is a fan of Pryce's work.
