star wars pirate AU a.k.a.
“pirates of the kessel run: curse of the millenium pearl”so I was listening to Davy Jones’ theme for hours, and went “hey this reminds me of a sad, nautical mash-up of Across the Stars and the Imperial March”… then “hey, Anakin/Vader is basically Davy Jones, Captain of the Flying Dutchman Executor” and then this AU spawned in my brain. and He’s A Pirate = the Force theme and Two Hornpipes (Tortuga) = the Star Wars Cantina?? the parallels are based more on personalities/roles, ignore family relations :P
also I just wanted to try completely reversing the environment of the Anakin vs Obi-Wan final duel… (not that typhoons and giant space kraken are much of an improvement, ahaha)

Pirates of the Caribbean 3
That ending really got to me for some reason. I don’t know why. On the way home I was thinking a) What happens to Elizabeth when she gets old and Will is still immortal- and what happens when she dies? and b) In two years, that’s the second woman left behind on a beach while the man she can no longer have leaves her. Hmmmm. (Although I prefer Elizabeth to Rose, I reckon, she was fantastic throughout the film. And she’s a Pirate King!)
Bah. I don’t know. Left me feeling a bit down, though…and Norrington bloody died, too! I liked him. (and I have a feeling I’m not alone. :p)
Damn, I wish I’d stayed for after the credits. I read on IMDB that apparently the writers intended for that after-credits scene to mean that Will is mortal again, because Elizabeth has been faithful to him, but I’m not sure, it all seemed a bit garbled…
It was a good movie though, don’t get me wrong! And very surreal. It has a boat full of Captain Jacks, a giant sea goddess, rocks turning into crabs, men turning into sea monsters…I can’t wait to see the essays that come out of this one…
(no subject)
So, I just got back from POTC 2. Well, got back a couple of hours ago. Several hours ago.
Have been reading meta for about a hour, and have decided I love this movie. There’s actually a hell of a lot going on in it- more than anyone usually expects of a big blockbuster movie. (This is why you should listen to the fans and not the critics. Well, in most cases. ;) )
I would also like to say I love Will a lot. He even edges out Jack. He’s just so bloody decent and hot. At the end, in addition to saving his father, is he going to bring Jack back for Elizabeth? Cos if so, whoa.
Speaking of Elizabeth, I was utterly shocked by the Big Thing that happened at the end and I really want everything to be resolved by POTC 3. A happy ending? C’mon, Disney, you’re…well, Disney. You can’t let me down now.
I was spoiled for Barbossa’s return…in a movie magazine, of all things…and am rather annoyed about that, because it would have been a hell of a surprise if I hadn’t known. Bah.
I also love love love the idea of a compass that points to the thing you’re looking for/the thing your heart wants. I want one. Er, yes.
In short…roll on Pirates 3.
Bring on the Kraken
So…just saw the POTC2 trailer. Twice.
IT IS FULL OF AWESOME…but no Anamaria in this one? :(
‘Oh bugger.’ XD Oh Jack, I love you so.
X-men, SW, POTC

X-Men
(Turned out very Wolverine/Rogue centered, despite the fact I don’t really ‘ship them. They’re my favourite thing in the movies, though.)
