I agree! During the entire credits I was sitting there thinking "I hate this movie because the ending sucks!!!!" The end of the credits helped to fix this!!! However, I still didn't like the ending, and I reached the conculsion that nothing will ever be as good as the 1st one (One of my all time fav movies!) Though I do have to say, I absoutly loved the marriage scene, classic pirates, though I would have liked it better if Jack had done the wedding, it would have been funnier that way. Oh and did anyone notice which sword it was that killed certain people?

Waaayyyy too long. And I f*&(ing hate that there were 20 minutes of previous and then 10 minutes of other movie theatre commercials and crap. We went to the 9:30, and didn't get out until 12:30. There were portions where I was almost falling asleep because I was so tired. It was fun to watch, but there wasn't enough of a plot to pull me in and hold my attention. I didn't get that "sucked in" feeling

Eh, I LOVE long movies as long as they're done well, just saw this last night and it totally redeemed (Run) DMC.

I love previews too, but commercials in movie theaters can die. Of course, I watched it at our local downtown theater and got to watch a cartoon in front of it too :)

The first time I saw the movie, it was an 8:00pm showing so I left when the credits started, but the second time my friend (who had also seen the movie previously) and I chatted during the credits and got to see the scene.

The ending was kind of odd, but at least from the Jack POV, there could be another movie. The resolution of Will & Elizabeth was pretty much stated.


Was the sword the one Norrington got from Will in CotBP? The irony of that would be that Will made it and Jones used it to kill people (and then what happened with Jones and Will at the end, trying not to give too much away :D)

Did anyone else notice that the two British Navy men, that were in all the movies, that always kind of argue with each other and Jack "slips by them" joined the pirates in the end? I thought that was classic. I was cracking up. :D

They left it really open while still resolving it. There's no way you can have Jack or anyone of the pirates settle down and open up a shop or something, so there always has to be the next great adventure even if we never get to see it filmed. And Will and Elizabeth have plenty of time for adventure too, but could also be omitted from any future movies.

I love what they did with Jack and his... alternative perceptions of himself (hope that's vague enough for those who haven't seen it)

Yep, it was the same sword. I figured it would play a role when they gave it back to Norrington, and said something like "this is a great sword". Yea but I thought it was intresting that it killed its creator... :rolleyes:

The sword definately had total irony in who it killed.




Can someone please still explain to me how someone who is dead can create a living, breathing, child? I just don't get it and it probably has to do with me watching waaaaayyyyy to much Buffy. LOL.

See, he's not really dead. He's perhaps, undead, but definately not dead. While the Flying Dutchman is crewed by the dead, those afraid of passing on, their captain isn't actually dead himself. Davy Jones cut out his heart while quite alive (it's magic!) and one can assume the new owner of the FD wasn't quite dead yet (he got better!) when he picked up the job.

Just saw #3. I like the flick. I will probably get the bootleg version and maybe the DVD. But, one should watch the other previous flicks before seeing the 3rd... Or whatever.

"Does he just makes it up as he goes along..."

Okay, so definitely didn't stay past the credits ... can someone please PM me what happened in the bonus scene? Please?

I didn't stay either.

The bonus scene took place 10 years later. A boy, about 9 is singing "yo ho, yo ho a pirates life for me" (I think it was that one or it was the song "hoist the colors" (via the beginning of the movie)). Then Elizabeth shows up behind the boy, so you know that that is her son. They are standing on a cliff looking out towards the ocean. Then you see the ocean and the flash of green, so you know Will is back. Then you see Will standing on top of the mast of the flying duchman (much like Jack did earlier in the movie on the Black Pearl) and the movie endsl.

Did anyone else notice that the dog from DMC (that was made the king of the Pelagosi (was that the name?) tribe at the end of the movie) was following Jack's dad in AWE with the key? I was like "hey the dog made it away from the tribe". :D I just thought it was funny.

Even better was Captain Teague's response to the funny looks everyone gave the dog: "Sea turtles mate"

I didn't stay for the credits either - thank you for posting that... Very interesting.

Over all, I wasn't too impressed with the movie, it was about an hour too long - but because I love PoTC I will admit that I will buy it and watch it over and over again! LOL

I'm thinking that I'll enjoy it more when I'm sitting comfy in my own living room, able to pause it/rewind it/etc.
