43:25 Also, if you remember, Barbossa sending Elizabeth off by calling her "Mrs. Turner" is a fitting nod to the first film. Elizabeth first met Barbossa and introduced herself as Turner which prompted him to take her captive to Isla de Muerta because he thought it was her blood he needed to lift the curse. So, him saying goodbye to her here as Mrs. Turner comes around as a peaceful goodbye. ❤
Elizabeth and Barbosa had a underrated bond. He’s the only guy Elizabeth didn’t kiss so he came back from dead but since she kiss other guys, they all died.
I love Beckett's reactions in the scene with Will and Davy Jones. He clearly knows a lot more than he's letting on, or he's that good at paying attention that he's able to anticipate a lot farther ahead than most great strategists. Of course, Jack's seeming unpredictability is what ultimately leads to his demise, but that scene hinestly sealed Beckett as one of the greatest characters in the series.
I think its the fact that Beckett, not even once, ever loses his temper or lashes out. He's ALWAYS cool and calm, even when things are going to crap. Its not something you usually see in the big bad of a series like this. Without him really having to physically do anything to anyone he manages to be intimidating
God, that deleted scene of Beckett and Jack meeting is _so_ much better than the one we ended up with... "You took something away from me Jack, precious cargo which you had no right to set free." "... people ain't cargo, mate..."
@@godalmighty83 well of course. Trying to spare 100 souls got him branded as a pirate. Why would he make the same mistake twice? He's learned his lesson, after all...
@@godalmighty83 Well yeah, Jack is a lot more selfish at that point because ever since Barbosa mutinied, he has trust issues. Which is why Jack coming back at the end of DMC is a pivotal moment for his character, he once again puts himself before others, and like before it ends with him betrayed.
"Its like this entire place was made to drive him insane." That's exactly the point; it IS. Tia Dalma had just said it. Jack was TAKEN to a place not of Death, but of Punishment. That is a personal Hell FOR Jack.
@@markusallen6818 If you really believe that then you completely do NOT know who Jack is. Like at all. There's a very strong clue about Jack and his sanity in "On stranger Tides." Jack is more AWARE and SANE than pretty much EVERY pirate we meet.
11:24 : Davy Jones shed a tear because when the locket rings when he didn’t even open it, means that Calypso had just opened hers. That’s why he’s crying because he knows she’s thinking about him.
But he was only able to cry because of the proximity of his heart. He looks at the tear because he’s confused why he’s crying, and then he realizes Beckett is bringing the heart closer, and he gets mad.
“Guy on the right looks so familiar… is that Blackbeard!?” 🤣🤣🤣 They were the guards that were guarding the chest, the same two guard Jack met at Port Royal in Pirates 1. When they escaped the Dutchman they put on pirate clothes to blend in.
@@PortCharmers that’s a good interpretation of it too, especially since they said the military was in disarray. I just thought they needed a way out so changed clothes and just ran with piracy 😂
That silence during the starting scene at the cinema was telling. Nobody wanted to breathe too loud 😂 Oh and when Davey Jones starts to cry, it's because the heart in a chest is in close proximity to him and he's feeling again. The rage is because it's being used to control him.
Viki, the two guys at the end that seemed kind of familiar are the 2 goofy british soldiers, they disguised themselves as pirates to infiltrate the Black Pearl and managed to survive the battle because of that
Fun fact: The two ships battling pearl and dutchman were an ACTUAL SET. Yes look it up, it is one of the biggest physical movie setpieces ever made. Otherwise, a lot of people keep hating on this movie for being too long but it is a top Tier way to end the Will & Elizabeth Saga in my opinion. Also the beginning scene is a Statement. Back when disney had Guts and was not afraid to go dark with the subject matter. ... because that's what reality was when the british Dealt with the Pirates back then.
Norrington is probably the most honorable person in the entire series lol. I saw this trilogy in theaters and I can confirm it was amazing! One of my favorite movie going experiences was watching these films. The next one isn't bad but it takes a departure from what we have come to love. Not so many familiar faces but i still like it. The final film however is absolutely fantastic and ties everything up perfectly so I cant wait until you experience that one!
One of the best things about this movie is that Keith Richards, the guitarist of The Rolling Stones and Johnny Depp’s inspiration for how he played Jack Sparrow played Jack’s Father
As mentioned by someone else, Keith Richards (who plays Captain Teague) was the inspiration for Johnny Depp's portrayal of Jack, so to see Richards himself in this franchise as Jack's father is awesome! Edit: You didn't miss anything regarding Jack's parents. And anyway, Captain Teague is seen only in two films in the entire franchise, so... 2nd edit: 42:55 to 42:57 - I don't think that was Blackbeard. Maybe it was a reference to the real Blackbeard, but I don't know.
Blackbeard is a main character in the fourth movie so that was definitely not Blackbeard. I believe she's referring to either the French (tall and thin) or Spanish (shorter guy with a lot of grey in his beard) representative to the Brethren Court at the time she says it based on the timing.
I love the respect you have for Norington. He really is a decent man who, in the first movie, was just doing his job. When Will took his girl he let it go because it was what she wanted. In the second movie he's at all time low hence why he does what he does, but in this movie he redeems himself. Pour one out for Norington.
Thank you for the Norrington appreciation. Like I said in the first movie reaction, he in my opinion gets the most character development and changes the most from the beginning of the trilogy to the end of it (yes Trilogy) and that why I would absolutely not wish Elizabeth on him. Elizabeth while strong, capable and adventurous is definitely not a good fit for James. She's too flighty and way too impetuous to be the wife of an Admiral of the British Royal Navy. Also James deserves better, so there. Will can have her. Well he can have her once every ten years, I guess.
A thing to take notice of, this film was meant to be the last in the series but they decided to make more later. That’s why it doesn’t seem like the story could continue from where it ended
I love this trilogy and with some great attention to detail throughout. Small things coming back full circle like When we meet Jack in the first film he's in a small row boat. The last we see of Jack is in a similar small row boat. Elizabeth knowing a captain could marry couples on a ship because Jack told her he could preform a marriage in Dead Mans Chest. The one that took me a while to notice because its very subtle and quick, is Will gets stabbed by the very same sword he made for Norrington in the first film. Also when Tia Dalma meets Will she tells him there is a touch of destiny about you. Which hints at him becoming Captain of the Flying Dutchman no matter what. Oh and Master Gibbs ending up back in Tortuga and Barbossa the Captain of The Black Pearl where they both started in The Curse of the Black Pearl. One of the last truly great trilogies.
At 42:45 where you said you recognised the guys on the right is one of my favourite touches of the movies. These 2 guys from the Royal Navy are from the first movie when they try to stop Jack from commandeering a ship at Port Royal and start arguing amongst themselves. They were the ones guarding the chest on the Dutchman and attempted to board the Black Pearl during the final fight where they slammed into the side of it instead of landing on the deck. They ended up ditching their uniforms and dressed as pirates and so joined the crew of the Black Pearl. Very underrated little background character arc in my opinion
I’m so glad you enjoyed this one so much! It might be my favorite of the entire Pirates bunch! Honestly you could probably stop here. This was initially intended to be the end of the series forever, and the other two don’t quite live up to the original trilogy in my opinion. The next one’s alright as a sort of lower-stakes mini-epilogue though. But I imagine you’ll be pretty disappointed by the lack of returning cast.
Agreed on the quality of the remaining movies -- On Stranger Tides is kinda fun but definitely a large step down in quality and overall left me disappointed, and Dead Men Tell No Tales was so bad I'm pretty sure I didn't even finish watching it the first and only time I tried.
@@-umbra-1590 Uhm, how does the latest one left off where this one ended? I haven't seen it yet, but I do have it, but the 4th movie is about where this one left off (the fountain of youth.
There's a book called POTC: the price of freedom, which expands on Jack's relationship with Becket and why he was branded and dishonorably discharged from the Navy. There's even a deleted scene where Beckett & Jack mention that moment, & Jack's disgust at Beckett's human trafficking. Unfortunately the next two installments retconned all of it
If you want to know more about Jack and Beckett’s previous dealings and their history I highly recommend watching the deleted extended scene where the two of them talk on his ship. It explains how and why Jack got the pirate brand on his arm, and even hints at why the Black Pearl is called that, and why it’s so blackened.
Ive said it before and I'll say it again - A. The SCORE to this film is GOD TIER! Seriously the combination of themes coming together after the first two film's, the swelling battle themes . . .Jacks theme getting a much needed and welcomed expansion. B - Yes its a LONG sit and yes its complicated but the plot is very clever and fun to just roll with. C. The makeup/SFX overall still look AMAZING! D. The final battle - with the sweeping camera moves from and around the ship as shit blows up - WOW! Watched this on the big screen when it came out. Packed theater - gotta remember that we had to wait a year or so after the last film to see the conclusion of the story. Course Jack fever was at its last great peak, the cast is amazing, Barbarossa / Jeff is simply fabulous to watch, Norington gets his character saved for both the audience and the characters - the audience reacted like it was a marvel film at the best bits and its a fond memory / cinema experience. Oh the running joke about the nice sword was both funny and sad at its last reference with Jones. So much detail in this film in both the set design and call backs. - seeing all the flags rise with the swell Zimmer gave the pirate clan theme real character - amazing moment the theater (and I!) all cheered! It was like the battle before Thanos or at Helms Deep - Course it was up to the Purl to set the tone and as I said before the battle did NOT disappoint. LOL the "GOOD ONE" joke lol that one was pretty good. I could ramble on for hours here - you guys leave a comment/reply on your favorite call back or joke - / moment ;) Sea Turtles mate ;)
Fun Fact: The final epic scene at about 42:00 where the british captain goes down with the ship. The only piece of it that isn't cgi is the actor walking down the stairs, othewise every SINGLE explosion and debris is cgi
I know this is a year old, but the actual scene isn't CGI. Everything was shot in a different manner and stitched together (the soldiers and sailors abandoning ship or getting flung off, Beckett walking down the stairs). The explosions and shrapnel are all real, they legit blew up their model of the ship's deck and it was amazing to watch.
42:14 Literally the most epic death scene for a villain lol also those guys at 42:48 were the inept British soldiers who were “guarding” the chest with Davy Jones heart. Cant remember if they were in the 2nd movie but they were in the 1st movie standing guard on the docks when Elizabeth feints and falls off the cliff.
This one has so many small details and callbacks to catch on repeat viewings. My favorite: the sword that Davy Jones takes from Norrington, kills Will with, and then presumably becomes Will's sword as captain, is the sword he forged for Norrington's promotion in the first movie.
42:19 Because Beckett promised to the public that he would clear the sea from pirates by using the Dutchman to kill them so traders wouldn’t have to worry about being raided by pirates. Now that Will is the captain and turned the Dutchman against Beckett, he can’t keep his promise anymore and his career is over. He simply decided to go on his own terms
11:54 I haven't seen any of these movies in years, but I've never forgotten that scene of the ship and the stars reflected in the night at sea. in the cinema, obviously
So the Green Flash is a real thing. Normally our atmosphere scatters mostly blue light. But when the Sun is on the horizon it has to go through so much air that all the blue is scattered out and only the oranges and yellows and reds make it through. On an extremely flat horizon, on a very calm day, with the right humidity, just as the sun goes below the horizon there will be a burst of green, light bent by the atmosphere from over the horizon. There are plenty of photos and videos of it. It's not as dramatic as the film makes it, but it is very cool.
I only realized that like last year when my bf pointed it out. I was always so confused like "why are we looking at these weird men for so long?? " the change of outfits and manners combined with how rarely they're even on screen was enough to fool me haha. Probably would still have no clue if it wasn't for him 😅
Idk if anyone’s mentioned it yet but one of the things that I only learned from a comment myself that probably goes under the radar is that where Beckett says they’re “finally” singing, we then jump to them going to Sao Feng where Barbossa says “the song has been sung,” as in, a song that could mark the potential end of piracy, meaning the court has to convene, which is what Beckett wants them to do
The Pirate respecting the code is no other than Teague...Sparrow, Jack's father. He's played by Keith Richards from The Rolling Stones, who Johnny Depp took his inspiration from for his role.
11:22 He ripped out his heart and put it on a chest buried far away to erradicate the pain of loss or any feelings and become unsensitive. His tears are a symptom that his heart is close. That's why he cries.
The set for the final maelstrom scene was the largest ever constructed of its time! Would 10/10 recommend Rango after this. Same director, and lead actor. In the DvD commentary Gore Verbinski said he based Jack's personality on Bugs Bunny
A lot of people really love to hate on this film, but in my opinion it's the most epic of all the sequels and it's a really fun ride! Easily one of the best end battles ever put to screen!
I cannot state enough what a great tragic villain Davy Jones is. He's such a great baddie, both for his appearance and behavior. There's just so much to it that Bill Nighy did to make the character more than a silly over the top cartoon villain. It's quite a great though obvious metaphor of Will literally giving his heart to Elizabeth. I am a sucker for metaphors and that's one of my favorites for sure. And I do love the end credits scene, such a bitter sweet of Will getting to meet his son for the first time and seeing his love after ten years. Gotta appreciate Jack's cunning and determination, even if he's quite mad but has a purpose to his madness.
So Beckett is actually the leader of the East India Company, its not specifically Great Britain they're fighting as in not the British Navy, they're fighting the East India Companies Navy. Fun fact to this day the Dutch East India Company is the richest Company to ever have existed, though that is different than the British East India Company they were both extrememly powerful and rich.
I went to the opening night release of Worlds End when it hit theaters and it was absolutely amazing to witness...we all cheered upon seeing Jack again 😂 this one is definitely the most epic out of all them for sure 😊
Every reaction I've watched- you're the first one to point out in the quote, "..and that was without a single drop of Rum.", and mentioned he had a sip of something. Not like he doesn't bleed off RUM, but numb the less. You're the first of sooo many, that said he drank something. Small moments that drive the viewers crazy! Lol Hope all is well in your neck of the world! 😊
36:16 Took me a second to remember the word for a dogfight at sea. It’s a skirmish. Also, that vortex, or whirlpool, whichever you want to call it, is referred to in this movie as a “maelstrom,” however, actual maelstroms, like the Saltstraumen maelstrom, are usually fields of changing flows, resulting in shifting whirlpools growing and shrinking, forming and vanishing, lasting seconds or minutes. Then there are just regular whirlpools, like the ones at Niagara, but all whirlpools found so far don’t affect larger ships nearly as much as video games would make you think. A speedboat can easily outrun the flows of the largest whirlpool, at Niagara on the Lake. If a person were tired, and trying to swim through a whirlpool, that could become deadly, but only the smallest boats (or even a swimmer who is fresh and ready) would struggle at the Saltstraumen maelstrom.
there is no one else in the history of actors that could have played jack sparrow as well as johnny depp... it just suits him soo well he makes it look effortless and i love all the pirates movies !
I will always remember that the home media release of this came with an FAQ booklet to try and explain some of the plot points because they realized the general audience couldn't understand what the heck was going on in the movie.
Probably my favorite of the saga, Geoffrey Rush is amazing and Keith Richards as Captain Teague is PERFECT 😁 On top of that Cutler Beckett's ending scene is so epic.
It was indeed a memorable thing, to watch this one in theatres, just as much as DMC. Great parallel between Jones/Calypso and Will/Elizabeth not knowing if they can trust each other. There were two more film after this, but they suffer from losing so many of the characters even if Jack does carry them a ways. You can safely skip them.
39:25 I love that. When I was 8 or 9 and my sister was 6 or 7 my dad build a trailer he used as he was fixing the yard in our new house. The house was in a brand new development so we had no grass and no fence when we moved in, so dad needed a trailer. He decided to let my sister and me choose the color and we chose this amazing, shockingly bright neon green. It was the late 1970's. This trailer was so bright green you'd swear it glowed by it's own light. Our next door neighbor's wife was English and she pretended to be extremely posh even though he husband managed the local hardware store. They were not poor, but they were, we all were strongly grounded in what they might call the "working class" She said of the trailer, with a very snooty tone, that it "offended the finer senses" and this delighted us to no end. To this day, nearly 50 years later, any time we encounter something that is even a bit unsavory, that it offends the finer senses. Eventually dad's need for the trailer went away and he sold it to a guy with a landscaping business. He loved the trailer as it was very well built, and the trailer he had before was wrecked when someone crashed into it when they failed to see it. I'd see the trailer from time to time over the next 25 or so years, filled with garden tools. I even met the guy who got it from my dad when we were getting gas at the same time. I told him the back story and why it was that color. He said the color was what he really wanted the trailer for so no one could say they didn't see it. He said he realized how well it was built only after he bought it.
First and second are good movies but this is the epic conclusion of them. I can't watch one without watching the other two. Most perfect trilogy with Lord of the Rings.
I saw this movie opening night at a midnight showing, dressed up as Jack, and loved it so much that as soon as it ended, I got up, went to the box office, and paid for another ticket to see it a second time. It's such a marvelous ending to the trilogy. The next two are fun if you want to see more of Jack Sparrow (and who doesn't), but they don't reach the same highs in my eyes. To answer your question about the pirate obsessed with the code, he is not Blackbeard (a real pirate btw, actual name Edward Teach), that's Captain Teague, played by the one and only Keith Richards. The character is Jack Sparrow's father, fitting since Johnny Depp cites Keith as one of the main inspirations for Jack, the other being the Looney Tune character Pepe La Pew. It also explains why he plays guitar after reading from the pirate code, since Keith Richards is the lead guitarist for The Rolling Stones.
Under certain air conditions, the air on the horizon can cause a bit of a rainbow effect, where different colors of sunlight get bend up or down. Green light is bend up a little bit, so right after the sun goes under the horizon, a bit of green light can still be seen a bit longer. It doesn't really cause a flash, though. Just a faint green shimmer for a second or two.
I was both very worried and excited to see the deaths of Norrington and the Governor. I'm sad there were so many deleted scenes about them (for example their reactions to Elizabeth's presumed death.) James especially deserved so much better. I always rooted for Sparrabeth, but Norrabeth would've been very interesting to explore as well. The fate of Will and Elizabeth is tragic in a bittersweet way, though. I still remember the shock of seeing Will "die" for the first time. The love story between Calypso and Davy Jones breaks my heart (no pun intended). The scene between them is one of my favorites during the series. And I love how "Hoist the Colors" tells the story of them and the Brethren Court. (As a side note I love how worried you are of everyone getting the cold after the fight. :D And Barbossa's "Just kiss!" became such a huge meme for shipping purposes over the years.) It has been great to see you react to "POTC". The first three are hands down the best, but I hope you will enjoy the next ones as well, they definitely their great moments too.
i love how absolutely dark the beginning of the movie is, mass execution including kids being hanged, Disney will never have the balls to do something like that ever again.
love this trilogy! They truly mastered the mix of action, heartfelt moments and a lot of humor. It has some of the best VFX, music, sound, visuals and acting ever. The sequels don't do the name any justice and are just kinda random stuff happening with a pirate theme. I think i'd prefer you to watch pretty much anything else, though i can understand if you want to complete this series. thanks for your great reaction, I'm excited to see what's next :D
To be honest I agree, the commodore and Elizabeth would have been an ending I would have loved. Will would save and be with his father, and Jack would be enjoying life. James is a stand up guy for sure and he’s always been a gentleman and a good guy
Will gets stabbed by the very same sword he made in Curse of The Black Pearl. Will gave it to Governor Swann who gave it to Norrington. Beckett took it from Norrington then gave it back. Norrington fails to kill Davy Jones with the sword, so Jones kills Norrington with it. Finally, Jones stabs Will with it.

You’re totally right. That’s the exact way I feel about James. He was too good for Elizabeth.
7:50 "The British!!?!?!"
That reaction got a good chuckle out of me.
It's half right its the British east India company they were more corrupt than the British government
And me
Need to make a gif out of it 😂
A thing to take notice of, this film was meant to be the last in the series but they decided to make more later. That’s why it doesn’t seem like the story could continue from where it ended
At the end when you said "wait that's will's son? he got her pregonte" I lost my shit. I'm literally crying. LMAO
I love this trilogy and with some great attention to detail throughout. Small things coming back full circle like When we meet Jack in the first film he's in a small row boat. The last we see of Jack is in a similar small row boat. Elizabeth knowing a captain could marry couples on a ship because Jack told her he could preform a marriage in Dead Mans Chest. The one that took me a while to notice because its very subtle and quick, is Will gets stabbed by the very same sword he made for Norrington in the first film. Also when Tia Dalma meets Will she tells him there is a touch of destiny about you. Which hints at him becoming Captain of the Flying Dutchman no matter what. Oh and Master Gibbs ending up back in Tortuga and Barbossa the Captain of The Black Pearl where they both started in The Curse of the Black Pearl. One of the last truly great trilogies.
At 42:45 where you said you recognised the guys on the right is one of my favourite touches of the movies. These 2 guys from the Royal Navy are from the first movie when they try to stop Jack from commandeering a ship at Port Royal and start arguing amongst themselves. They were the ones guarding the chest on the Dutchman and attempted to board the Black Pearl during the final fight where they slammed into the side of it instead of landing on the deck. They ended up ditching their uniforms and dressed as pirates and so joined the crew of the Black Pearl. Very underrated little background character arc in my opinion
Barbosa is an incredible actor. You should see him play Einstein in the Miniseries Genius!
I’m so glad you enjoyed this one so much! It might be my favorite of the entire Pirates bunch! Honestly you could probably stop here. This was initially intended to be the end of the series forever, and the other two don’t quite live up to the original trilogy in my opinion. The next one’s alright as a sort of lower-stakes mini-epilogue though. But I imagine you’ll be pretty disappointed by the lack of returning cast.
Agreed on the quality of the remaining movies -- On Stranger Tides is kinda fun but definitely a large step down in quality and overall left me disappointed, and Dead Men Tell No Tales was so bad I'm pretty sure I didn't even finish watching it the first and only time I tried.
The next one is meh imo because it feels like a filler episode lol. The latest one actually picks up where this one left off
Completely agree with you on this. The 3rd is my favorite solely because I love Barbosa and Jack, though the next one was super disappointing.
The Film Salazars revenge is really not very good, but the other one with Barbossa and Jack was a fun adventure for me. :)
@@-umbra-1590 Uhm, how does the latest one left off where this one ended? I haven't seen it yet, but I do have it, but the 4th movie is about where this one left off (the fountain of youth.
Jack's true love is the freedom of the open ocean so it makes sense that his hell is a desert.
I love how you noticed everyone was still fully willing to test their powder at each other
There's a book called POTC: the price of freedom, which expands on Jack's relationship with Becket and why he was branded and dishonorably discharged from the Navy. There's even a deleted scene where Beckett & Jack mention that moment, & Jack's disgust at Beckett's human trafficking. Unfortunately the next two installments retconned all of it
If you want to know more about Jack and Beckett’s previous dealings and their history I highly recommend watching the deleted extended scene where the two of them talk on his ship. It explains how and why Jack got the pirate brand on his arm, and even hints at why the Black Pearl is called that, and why it’s so blackened.
Ive said it before and I'll say it again - A. The SCORE to this film is GOD TIER! Seriously the combination of themes coming together after the first two film's, the swelling battle themes . . .Jacks theme getting a much needed and welcomed expansion. B - Yes its a LONG sit and yes its complicated but the plot is very clever and fun to just roll with. C. The makeup/SFX overall still look AMAZING! D. The final battle - with the sweeping camera moves from and around the ship as shit blows up - WOW! Watched this on the big screen when it came out. Packed theater - gotta remember that we had to wait a year or so after the last film to see the conclusion of the story. Course Jack fever was at its last great peak, the cast is amazing, Barbarossa / Jeff is simply fabulous to watch, Norington gets his character saved for both the audience and the characters - the audience reacted like it was a marvel film at the best bits and its a fond memory / cinema experience. Oh the running joke about the nice sword was both funny and sad at its last reference with Jones. So much detail in this film in both the set design and call backs.
- seeing all the flags rise with the swell Zimmer gave the pirate clan theme real character - amazing moment the theater (and I!) all cheered! It was like the battle before Thanos or at Helms Deep - Course it was up to the Purl to set the tone and as I said before the battle did NOT disappoint. LOL the "GOOD ONE" joke lol that one was pretty good. I could ramble on for hours here - you guys leave a comment/reply on your favorite call back or joke - / moment ;)
Sea Turtles mate ;)
I can confirm. It was SOOOOOO dope in theaters!
Fun Fact: The final epic scene at about 42:00 where the british captain goes down with the ship. The only piece of it that isn't cgi is the actor walking down the stairs, othewise every SINGLE explosion and debris is cgi
I know this is a year old, but the actual scene isn't CGI. Everything was shot in a different manner and stitched together (the soldiers and sailors abandoning ship or getting flung off, Beckett walking down the stairs). The explosions and shrapnel are all real, they legit blew up their model of the ship's deck and it was amazing to watch.
This is easily my favorite entry of the original 3 films. I love how it ties everyone’s motivations together to create the conflict in the film.
42:14 Literally the most epic death scene for a villain lol also those guys at 42:48 were the inept British soldiers who were “guarding” the chest with Davy Jones heart. Cant remember if they were in the 2nd movie but they were in the 1st movie standing guard on the docks when Elizabeth feints and falls off the cliff.
It was indeed dope to see in theaters.
This one has so many small details and callbacks to catch on repeat viewings. My favorite: the sword that Davy Jones takes from Norrington, kills Will with, and then presumably becomes Will's sword as captain, is the sword he forged for Norrington's promotion in the first movie.
“On the wheel then Mr. Turner.”
“Aye, Captain Turner.” 🥲🥲🥲 Gets me every time.
Instantly my favourite reactions to the Pirates series, one of the main reasons being your appreciation for Norrington. Truly an honourable man!
I saw this one in theaters as a kid and the opening with the singing and everything was awesome.
"I still feel like he's lowkey playing her though" Calypso literally played him for 10 years XD
42:19 Because Beckett promised to the public that he would clear the sea from pirates by using the Dutchman to kill them so traders wouldn’t have to worry about being raided by pirates. Now that Will is the captain and turned the Dutchman against Beckett, he can’t keep his promise anymore and his career is over. He simply decided to go on his own terms
11:54 I haven't seen any of these movies in years, but I've never forgotten that scene of the ship and the stars reflected in the night at sea. in the cinema, obviously
So the Green Flash is a real thing. Normally our atmosphere scatters mostly blue light. But when the Sun is on the horizon it has to go through so much air that all the blue is scattered out and only the oranges and yellows and reds make it through. On an extremely flat horizon, on a very calm day, with the right humidity, just as the sun goes below the horizon there will be a burst of green, light bent by the atmosphere from over the horizon. There are plenty of photos and videos of it. It's not as dramatic as the film makes it, but it is very cool.
Love your reaction videos ! I love how you really get into each movie !
Thank you so much🥹💖
@@VKunia jude law is going to blade Captain Hook in the live action Peter Pan
"The reason I make so many kissing jokes is it bothers you guys and that's so funny"
You have my respect Vkunia
42:50 he's one of the two guards that always argue. They made their choice too and joined the pirates.
I only realized that like last year when my bf pointed it out. I was always so confused like "why are we looking at these weird men for so long?? " the change of outfits and manners combined with how rarely they're even on screen was enough to fool me haha. Probably would still have no clue if it wasn't for him 😅
Idk if anyone’s mentioned it yet but one of the things that I only learned from a comment myself that probably goes under the radar is that where Beckett says they’re “finally” singing, we then jump to them going to Sao Feng where Barbossa says “the song has been sung,” as in, a song that could mark the potential end of piracy, meaning the court has to convene, which is what Beckett wants them to do
My favorite movie 😮😊
This movie was so dope to see on Disney Plus!
Mine too
Favorite of the franchise or all time?
Franchise
@@SurvivorBri if you ask me, of the franchise, duh.
The Pirate respecting the code is no other than Teague...Sparrow, Jack's father. He's played by Keith Richards from The Rolling Stones, who Johnny Depp took his inspiration from for his role.
Fun fact, the green flash is a real thing! I mean not the while bring-back-the-dead part, but the actual green flash of the sun.
I aspire to have a beard as cool as “normal” Davy Jones
11:22 He ripped out his heart and put it on a chest buried far away to erradicate the pain of loss or any feelings and become unsensitive. His tears are a symptom that his heart is close. That's why he cries.
The set for the final maelstrom scene was the largest ever constructed of its time! Would 10/10 recommend Rango after this. Same director, and lead actor.
In the DvD commentary Gore Verbinski said he based Jack's personality on Bugs Bunny
A lot of people really love to hate on this film, but in my opinion it's the most epic of all the sequels and it's a really fun ride!
Easily one of the best end battles ever put to screen!
Lol, making kissing jokes just because it makes other people uncomfortable is my NEW favorite reason to watch this channel 😂
I agree. Vicki is not afraid to be herself or to play with her fans. I appreciate and respect that. TH-cam needs more reactors like her.
I cannot state enough what a great tragic villain Davy Jones is. He's such a great baddie, both for his appearance and behavior. There's just so much to it that Bill Nighy did to make the character more than a silly over the top cartoon villain.
It's quite a great though obvious metaphor of Will literally giving his heart to Elizabeth. I am a sucker for metaphors and that's one of my favorites for sure. And I do love the end credits scene, such a bitter sweet of Will getting to meet his son for the first time and seeing his love after ten years.
Gotta appreciate Jack's cunning and determination, even if he's quite mad but has a purpose to his madness.
Aw, you missed Jack's face when he saw the stone-crabs move the ship
So Beckett is actually the leader of the East India Company, its not specifically Great Britain they're fighting as in not the British Navy, they're fighting the East India Companies Navy. Fun fact to this day the Dutch East India Company is the richest Company to ever have existed, though that is different than the British East India Company they were both extrememly powerful and rich.
I went to the opening night release of Worlds End when it hit theaters and it was absolutely amazing to witness...we all cheered upon seeing Jack again 😂 this one is definitely the most epic out of all them for sure 😊
Every reaction I've watched- you're the first one to point out in the quote, "..and that was without a single drop of Rum.", and mentioned he had a sip of something. Not like he doesn't bleed off RUM, but numb the less. You're the first of sooo many, that said he drank something. Small moments that drive the viewers crazy! Lol
Hope all is well in your neck of the world! 😊
36:16 Took me a second to remember the word for a dogfight at sea. It’s a skirmish. Also, that vortex, or whirlpool, whichever you want to call it, is referred to in this movie as a “maelstrom,” however, actual maelstroms, like the Saltstraumen maelstrom, are usually fields of changing flows, resulting in shifting whirlpools growing and shrinking, forming and vanishing, lasting seconds or minutes. Then there are just regular whirlpools, like the ones at Niagara, but all whirlpools found so far don’t affect larger ships nearly as much as video games would make you think. A speedboat can easily outrun the flows of the largest whirlpool, at Niagara on the Lake. If a person were tired, and trying to swim through a whirlpool, that could become deadly, but only the smallest boats (or even a swimmer who is fresh and ready) would struggle at the Saltstraumen maelstrom.
there is no one else in the history of actors that could have played jack sparrow as well as johnny depp... it just suits him soo well he makes it look effortless and i love all the pirates movies !
I will always remember that the home media release of this came with an FAQ booklet to try and explain some of the plot points because they realized the general audience couldn't understand what the heck was going on in the movie.
“Is that Blackbeard???”
Hahahaha ohhhhh just you wait kiddo
And the father of Jack, it´s Keith Richards from Rolling Stones, what a legend.
Probably my favorite of the saga, Geoffrey Rush is amazing and Keith Richards as Captain Teague is PERFECT 😁
On top of that Cutler Beckett's ending scene is so epic.
Beckett's death is the most epic death in the history of cinema.
It was indeed a memorable thing, to watch this one in theatres, just as much as DMC. Great parallel between Jones/Calypso and Will/Elizabeth not knowing if they can trust each other.
There were two more film after this, but they suffer from losing so many of the characters even if Jack does carry them a ways. You can safely skip them.
39:25 I love that.
When I was 8 or 9 and my sister was 6 or 7 my dad build a trailer he used as he was fixing the yard in our new house. The house was in a brand new development so we had no grass and no fence when we moved in, so dad needed a trailer.
He decided to let my sister and me choose the color and we chose this amazing, shockingly bright neon green. It was the late 1970's.
This trailer was so bright green you'd swear it glowed by it's own light.
Our next door neighbor's wife was English and she pretended to be extremely posh even though he husband managed the local hardware store.
They were not poor, but they were, we all were strongly grounded in what they might call the "working class"
She said of the trailer, with a very snooty tone, that it "offended the finer senses" and this delighted us to no end.
To this day, nearly 50 years later, any time we encounter something that is even a bit unsavory, that it offends the finer senses.
Eventually dad's need for the trailer went away and he sold it to a guy with a landscaping business. He loved the trailer as it was very well built, and the trailer he had before was wrecked when someone crashed into it when they failed to see it.
I'd see the trailer from time to time over the next 25 or so years, filled with garden tools. I even met the guy who got it from my dad when we were getting gas at the same time.
I told him the back story and why it was that color. He said the color was what he really wanted the trailer for so no one could say they didn't see it. He said he realized how well it was built only after he bought it.
This really should have been the end of the series. Amazing movie and amazing ending to the original trilogy.
First and second are good movies but this is the epic conclusion of them. I can't watch one without watching the other two. Most perfect trilogy with Lord of the Rings.
“We’ve gotta get rid of the British here!”
We absolutely do 😂
13:29 Jack's gone insane from being in Davy Jones's Locker so long.
I saw this movie opening night at a midnight showing, dressed up as Jack, and loved it so much that as soon as it ended, I got up, went to the box office, and paid for another ticket to see it a second time. It's such a marvelous ending to the trilogy. The next two are fun if you want to see more of Jack Sparrow (and who doesn't), but they don't reach the same highs in my eyes.
To answer your question about the pirate obsessed with the code, he is not Blackbeard (a real pirate btw, actual name Edward Teach), that's Captain Teague, played by the one and only Keith Richards. The character is Jack Sparrow's father, fitting since Johnny Depp cites Keith as one of the main inspirations for Jack, the other being the Looney Tune character Pepe La Pew. It also explains why he plays guitar after reading from the pirate code, since Keith Richards is the lead guitarist for The Rolling Stones.

42:46 Two goober guards became two goober pirates
I agree I wish I watched this movie in theaters, the whole audience would have applauded and loved it.
we can all agree ...
the vortex was completly awesome!!! :D
Under certain air conditions, the air on the horizon can cause a bit of a rainbow effect, where different colors of sunlight get bend up or down. Green light is bend up a little bit, so right after the sun goes under the horizon, a bit of green light can still be seen a bit longer. It doesn't really cause a flash, though. Just a faint green shimmer for a second or two.
They were the soldiers that turned into pirates, that's why they were familiar to you
I was both very worried and excited to see the deaths of Norrington and the Governor. I'm sad there were so many deleted scenes about them (for example their reactions to Elizabeth's presumed death.) James especially deserved so much better. I always rooted for Sparrabeth, but Norrabeth would've been very interesting to explore as well. The fate of Will and Elizabeth is tragic in a bittersweet way, though. I still remember the shock of seeing Will "die" for the first time.
The love story between Calypso and Davy Jones breaks my heart (no pun intended). The scene between them is one of my favorites during the series. And I love how "Hoist the Colors" tells the story of them and the Brethren Court.
(As a side note I love how worried you are of everyone getting the cold after the fight. :D And Barbossa's "Just kiss!" became such a huge meme for shipping purposes over the years.)
It has been great to see you react to "POTC". The first three are hands down the best, but I hope you will enjoy the next ones as well, they definitely their great moments too.
The chuckle I chuckled when you mourned James. You're adorable. I love your reactions!
i love how absolutely dark the beginning of the movie is, mass execution including kids being hanged, Disney will never have the balls to do something like that ever again.
love this trilogy! They truly mastered the mix of action, heartfelt moments and a lot of humor. It has some of the best VFX, music, sound, visuals and acting ever. The sequels don't do the name any justice and are just kinda random stuff happening with a pirate theme. I think i'd prefer you to watch pretty much anything else, though i can understand if you want to complete this series.
thanks for your great reaction, I'm excited to see what's next :D
To be honest I agree, the commodore and Elizabeth would have been an ending I would have loved. Will would save and be with his father, and Jack would be enjoying life. James is a stand up guy for sure and he’s always been a gentleman and a good guy
The deleted scene of Jack and Barbossa fighting to be captain and Mr Gibbs just having enough is very funny. 😂
"Oh no, someone actually got crushed by a cannon"
Hence the phrase "Loose cannon" used to happen all the time on ships, that's why they're tied down.
Jack in Davy Jones locker is the funniest part😂
I truly believe this is the end of the Pirates trilogy. Everything else dipped in quality after this
Such a great end to one of my favourite trilogies of all time.
I remember when this came out in theaters, they also showed the first 2 films. It was amazing.
Yes, this WAS amazing to see in theatres! LOL
Will gets stabbed by the very same sword he made in Curse of The Black Pearl. Will gave it to Governor Swann who gave it to Norrington. Beckett took it from Norrington then gave it back. Norrington fails to kill Davy Jones with the sword, so Jones kills Norrington with it. Finally, Jones stabs Will with it.
