I love how Sakharine (red guy) seemed to have dreamed of this day. He wanted to crush his ancestors rival to the ground, his hand to hand fight scene with Haddock was practiced, rehearsed, like he had to get it perfectly. As for Haddock bro just wants revenge for the here and now. He knows the rivalry between Rackham & Francis but seems more focused on wanted to kick Sackharine’s ass then reenacting the past. For Sackharine, this seems personal. Like he IS the reincarnation of Rackham and that is my head cannon for this film (I’m not sure about the books) in my mind, Rackham was so fucking pissed at Haddock that he carried that spite with him in his next life and he wants to REVEL in beating Haddock because he looks so much like the man that took EVERYTHING from Rackham, so not only does he want the treasure, he wants the haddock’s house (which he got) he has what seems to be a descendant of Francis’s right hand man as a butler, he TOOK HADDOCK’S CREW AND SHIP. THAT IS WAY TOO PERSONAL JUST FOR A LONG BYGONE ERA SACKHARINE LIVED UP TO RACKHAMS CURSE! Taking everything that the Haddock’s had until there is absolutely nothing left. He wants to take down Haddock, to finally get what he wants. SWEET REVENGE. Haddock tho ain’t got time for that shit and throws a fucking bOTTLE AT HIM- It’s fucking funny. I love this movie!
@TheNapster153 Жыл бұрын
I think it also shows their priorites. Sir Francis Drake, at the end of the day, didn't blow up his own ship to keep the gold out of Rackham's hand. He did it for payback for the death of his crew along with his own survival. It was the case of an eye for an eye. Not to mention, if he were serious, I'm sure Drake could've found a way to make a new fortune and track down the Unicorn's cargo. But no, he must've just wanted to move on not knowing that Rackham was going to follow through with his curse.

given that the ship, Haddock's introduction, and the entire subplot of a malicious organization controlling the ship by ensuring he stayed drunk were also lifted from that story (where those crab tins were used for smuggling) I'm not sure whether this counts as a reference or just attention to detail.

I love all the references and symbolism in the final fight between Archibald and Sakharine. "Who gave you permission to board my ship?" "I dont need it. I never needed it." Aside from this a reference to actually needing permission to board a captain's ship, it also references the fact that Sakharine is the distant grandson of Red Rackham, who was a pirate. And in a way Sakharine himself acts like a pirate. When the two fight Sakharine uses a net to throw off Archibald and is able to best him. This is similar to how Red Rackham would do the same to Sir Francis, but with a burning cape. Sakharine even gies as far as to swing his cane/sword, just like Red Rackham did when bested Sir Francis. Finally Archibald would come back at Sakharine just like Sir Francis did with Red Rackham, but do so under unique amd potentially disrespectful manners. Archibald would throw a bunch of bottles at Sakharine, while Sir Francis would face away and stab Red Rackham, then leave without killing him. Which is another point. Archibald nor Sir Francis killed their opponent directly. (Note. Red Rackham drowned, and he could have potentially escaped, but failed to do so.) Finally. While Sir Francis caught a curse, Archibald would break it.
