I've got a jar of dirt!

If possible, I love Captain Jack Sparrow *even more* than I did before.

It's almost as if the writers, the director, all the actors and producers, all got together and asked themselves "What kind of sequel would really make hafital a happy happy, blithering mass of incoherent goo?" And then, went ahead and made it so.

Aw, honey, I'm so glad it made you happy! I haven't seen it, yet, but I was wondering what you thought. It's probably going to be August before I see it. Good to know there's goodness to look forward to. :-D

[hafital]

It was, if nothing else, a lot of fun. :) *smooches you* I hope SL was fun!

[tod_hollykim]

Oh, wasn't it fun? But I didn't know about the little extra scene after the credits. I gotta stay and watch when I go back to see it tomorrow.

[hafital]

Oh, you didn't miss that much. The tag is mostly just cute, but definitely stay for it if you see it again. :)

Loved all *sorts* of things about this movie, not least that it made me, finally, like Will. He's been... I dunno, too shiny and unscuffed 'til now for me to like him. And I adored so many of the things you mentioned. ::cheerful:: Now I'm going to wait for someone to write me Jack/Will/James fic....

::whistles innocently off to her corner::

[hafital]

Yeah, I may just be a complete Will fan after this movie. :) I don't know if he's just written better this time, or if Orlando grew into the part more. Whatever the case, he was great. Adored him.

LOL. Well, there have been some already, you know, after the first film. I imagine there will be more to come. I can probably find links for you, if you want.

Jack/Will/James can be nice, but I have issues with stories that leave Elizabeth out.

[gryphonrhi]

I think they gave Will more dimensions in this one, but either way, it was nice to see.

And really? I wouldn't have thought there'd be much of that 3some after the first movie. I've read some very good J/W/E and liked it. With me, it's a matter of, 'So, why isn't X there?' If the author has a good reason, I'm fine with it. Come to that, I probably ought to just wander the fandom again. ::g:: 'Cause really? James/Will/Elizabeth might also be interesting.

I really am wondering what's going on with Norrington after this film. I'm not buying that a man who made commodore just handed over Davy Jones' heart without some kind of backup plan....

What I loved was that they let Elizabeth be "Elizabeth the Zombie Slayer", with all the richness and depth that entails, and the willingness to do whatever it is that has to be done, no matter what the cost to her personally. I was deeply in love with her (again!) by the end of the movie. I really did get all excited about Pirates! again, and squealed (quietly, to myself) at first sight. All 4 of them are just so pretty and wonderfully broken by the end of the movie, each in their own perfect way.

They are! They're beautiful little broken pirate poppets. Let's cuddle them! *g*

[hafital]

I am not kidding, during all of the Jack/Elizabeth scenes, I was very much thinking, "Hafital is going to *love* this!"

Bwah! Yeah, that's almost an understatment. Honestly, I never really thought the writers would actually go there. I was *thrilled*, not only for the J/E-ness, but the dynamic they're hitting is almost exactly how I would approach the pairing myself.
