Iron Bess Posted August 15, 2005 Author Posted August 15, 2005 Well, as I said, I got my news from friends who are actors and industry people who are involved with people who work at Disney. They go to the studios often for voice-over work and such. I've heard all kinds of things, all different stuff. So again, I'll just wait and see what actually happens. Good idea. They are starting re-shoots tomorrow on the lot and things change. Well, you may not realize it but your looking at the remains of what was once a very handsome woman!

I'm going to make you a happy Pirate.... Yes, they have spared you that. ..... sorta. Well, you may not realize it but your looking at the remains of what was once a very handsome woman!

I'm going to make you a happy Pirate.... Yes, they have spared you that. ..... sorta. Hey, that's an intriguing, elusive, vague sort of answer ... but I'll TAKE IT! *grins wildly* Have another few rounds on me, Iron Bess ... you've made me one very happy pirate, indeed!!

I'm going to make you a happy Pirate.... Yes, they have spared you that. ..... sorta. Captain Jack Sparrow is like James Bond. You will love him no matter how many women he beds. Why? Because he's Captain Jack Sparrow. Who hasn't wanted to be a Bond girl at one time. (I'm speaking of Connery's Bond myself). And of course, who hasn't dreamed of being a Sparrow wench at one time? (Or Barbosa for Christine and Charity). ~Black Hearted Pearl The optimist expects the wind. The pessimist complains about the wind. The realist adjusts the sails.
Iron Bess Posted August 15, 2005 Author Posted August 15, 2005 Yeah... I have to say it, as much as I love Johnny Depp and yes, without fail he's one of the nicest people I've ever met... There is something about watching Rush strut around as Barbosa that is, well, awe inspiring. Hes a powerful presence indeed. Well, you may not realize it but your looking at the remains of what was once a very handsome woman!

(Or Barbosa for Christine and Charity). Oh, no, don't get me wrong -- I DO love Jack Sparrow the more women he wines and dines and ... er, yes. ;-D I've seen screengrabs from 2 and 3 showing that Scarlett and Giselle are back for the sequels, and I'm loving that; I loved their characters, and I totally approve of seeing more of them; they're great. _Jack_ is great, in all his womanizing-character self ... it's hilarious fun. *grins again* No ... what I was afraid of was that Captain Jack would be given a Mary-Sue-styled love interest ... the kind of love interest that pops up on Fanfiction.net (and various other Disney sequels) ... in this case, I'd expect to see a female pirate captain, or a highborn lady tired of being a highborn lady (like Elizabeth, only incredibly annoying in a way in which Elizabeth never is), or some poor abused Tortugian wench looking for a savior ... and Jack swoops in, saves said lass, and falls madly in love with her, to the point where he is close to renouncing piracy and sailing in order to spend the rest of his days as a happily-married man -- because, hey, who needs a ship when you've found your One Truw Luve?? So, no ... Sparrow wenches are fine. Sparrow love interests are fine. Sparrow soul-mates that turn Sparrow into a swooning romantic are NOT fine, because they are clearly not Sparrow at all. But I'm gonna take Iron Bess's elusive answer as a strongly-optimistic sign that my worries are unnecessary ... because I'm going to take it to mean that Jack will remain his ever-loving Bondish self (that doesn't sound quite right, does it?? ;-D), and that there are no Mary Sues on the sequels' horizons. *grins* Women, yes; Mary Sue love interests, no. Because the possibility had been making me nervous, let me tell ya! ... Now, Iron Bess, just let us know if they need a few more actresses to play various Sparrow wenches, because while I have no intention of trying to break into acting, I wouldn't mind auditioning for a role like THAT ...

Christine Posted August 15, 2005 Posted August 15, 2005 Oh, le sigh.........yup, Barbossa is quite a powerful presence indeed! That whole dark, mysterious persona he has going on....whoa! I still say if at all women are needed to make Barbossa happy I'll be there-lol!
Patrick Hand Posted August 16, 2005 Posted August 16, 2005 Captain Jack Sparrow is like James Bond. You will love him no matter how many women he beds. Why? Because he's Captain Jack Sparrow.

Captain Charlotte Savvy Posted August 24, 2005 Posted August 24, 2005 AAHH!! AHHH!!!! _AAAHHHHAHAHHHH_!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! We have actual PHOTOS!!!! [Edited/Removed: Pictures are copywrited to Disney] Okay ... sooo, anybody want to take a wild guess as to what exactly it is about Jack's scheme that winds Elizabeth and Will into their predicaments in the first, second, sixth, and seventh photo? 'Cause ya got me.

tishsparrow Posted August 24, 2005 Posted August 24, 2005 the pics were removed, dang, now i want to see them! what site did they come from???
Capt. Morgan Posted August 24, 2005 Posted August 24, 2005 The pics were cool... at risk of offending someone, I'll describe the pics, if I may... (if I need to edit, please let me know!!) One of the pics showed Will behind bars, in a jail cell similar to the one that held Jack in the original, with Elizabeth talking to him from the other side of the bars... The remaiining pics were if Elizabeth and Will being held by a British Naval Officer and a bunch of rifle-with-fixed-bayonet wielding Marines, in an outdoor, presumably Port Royal setting... The costumes look absolutely fantastic!!!!

Charity Posted August 25, 2005 Posted August 25, 2005 'Seen the pics! Willyboy looks much more like a Will Turner man now Nice pics and good costumes indeed and just seeing the pics makes ye feel it's a great movie, somehow the admosphere makes you feel that :)
Charity Posted August 26, 2005 Posted August 26, 2005 From a discussion at Imdb: So far, it would seem he's part of Davy Jones' crew.*still has issues with Davy Jones captaining the Flying Dutchman* Yes for the monkey but barbossa is not cursed because he need's to take a coin from the chest. I think that Davey goes to the cave dose what he dose and makes a deal with barbossa and barbossa goes after jack and they make a deal and if jack and barbossa deal works then some how barbossa is human or something like that. I find that a rather interestong move actually, that would make sense :) Oh yeah..that would be fun! Our Barbossa is moving up in the world..or should i say down? From cursed pirates to squid like demons of the ocean..
Capt. Lazarus Gage Posted August 28, 2005 Posted August 28, 2005 I can't wait for POTC 2 to get here.
Charity Posted August 28, 2005 Posted August 28, 2005 Me neither, it's taking too long..but we will just have to be patient
