So, that parasol that wee Elizabeth sees floating in the water in the prologue (right before she sees Will). Is that Ragetti's? Heh, okay, not seriously. But doesn't it look like just his style?
Now I want to write fic about this. *smashes down bunny* I DON'T NEED MORE FIC IDEAS!
I would love to know what story Jack is telling Murtogg and Mullroy when Elizabeth falls off the fort wall. All we hear is, "And then they made me their chief." Jack! What are you telling those impressionable young lobsters? And why aren't you telling us too?
You and me both.
Speaking of Elizabeth's fall... I love Norrington more every time I see this movie. I love that he's so totally focused on getting through his proposal that he misses her "I'm swooning. In a bad, non-romantic way," warning signs, and I love that once she does swoon and fall, he's fully prepared to leap over the wall after her. Doesn't even pause. If Gillett hadn't stopped him ("You don't need her, sir! Choose me instead!"), we might have had a smooshy, waterlogged Commodore and a much-deprived-of-his-character movie. Norrington is a true gentleman and an officer worthy of his high rank, and I am so smitten.
Wah, I KNOW. I do not understand all the people who think he's boring and cardboard, or worse, evil. He is a sweetie, if a bit uptight.
He tends to prefer "Jaaaaack."
*snerk*
He's totally reveling in his "Ha! Look! I can freak you out! Booga booga!" moment. There's no logic to it otherwise- he knows he can't drink it, his men know, and Elizabeth knows intellectually, at least. He's just... playing.
Aha, I KNOW. I love how into the "Look at how PIRATICAL I am!" Barbossa is.
Anamaria has great skin for a woman who presumably has spent a lot of time at sea.
Jack's got pretty good skin, too. Maybe the alcohol acts as a preservative.
Speaking of well-spoken, the phrase "[send whoever to] Davy Jones' locker" annoys me and always has. It's so cheesy. However, Mullroy's infernal substitution, "send them down to see old Hobb," that I like.
I believe 'Davy Jones' locker" is also anachronistic in this case.
Why do the pirates scream when they get stabbed? Habit? It's not like they feel it.
I think habit. Like when Elizabeth dumps hot coals on Ragetti, and he goes argh ow, he stops right away when Pintel basically says "Stop being an idiot, you know it doesn't hurt."
See? Even the score thinks they're in love. Now if I can just isolate out a theme for Barbossa and his apples...
no subject
