[@ForeverTraitor]

It also establishes multiple character and plot elements, something only the best action scenes can do. Establishes that both Will and Jack are skilled swordfighters, Will because he wants to impress Elizabeth. Sets up Jack's pistol being important to him, and the mystery of who the bullet is for. Once again shows Will's master being given the credit for Will's work, which will be paid off later. Will throws a sword to stop Jack escaping, in the last scene Will throws a sword to stop Jack from being hanged and help him escape. There's probably more that I'm missing.

The 4th is okay, the romance thing between Jack and Anjelica is keeping the plot very interesting and fun to watch. The 5th one was honeslty kinda boring to me.. They stopped really caring about the quality of the movie, but just about "Yeah, it's already famous, let's just mass produce it". Even the Sparrow's lines became boring. They somehow made him into a boring character which is honestly disappointing but not surprising knowing Disney.

Pirates embraces its goofy moments by being over the top and ridiculous about them since the concept for a good fight is better than the logical aspect of it MCU fights only serve to move the plot forward, not to have fun.

[@---jt5wg]

@@amityislandchum The feeling that I get, is that this movie knows its there to just have fun. I was on the original Pirates ride in Disneyland a lot as a kid, and the scenes of people being chased by pirates or shot at by them was still cartoonish in its sense of humor even if it was a rather dark concept. Unlike a lot of the modern big blockbuster films, this movie's action scenes have a definite style of "playing pirates". It rings more of the 80s action scenes that despite being dangerous situations, just make me smile and have a good time. Most modern hollywood action films go for making me cringe or think about how bad a hit hurt. Both can be good, depending on what you want you audience to feel. I will give MCU a couple points to humor in a few of their fights, but because they're so CGI oriented they tend to be more about spectacle of powers and such rather than fun flavor. Its not bad to make the audience wince during fights, but we do seem to have a lot more of the gritty types of action scenes, and are seriously lacking in humorous fight choreography (think of the clever humor of Jackie Chan) as of the last decade.

Hi Dylan, in case you're still wondering, they needed William Turner's blood to reverse the curse because they needed the blood of every crewmember that took the treasure when returning every single coin and they did so, with one coin unaccounted for (the one Elizabeth had that she took from Will when she saved him) and his blood, but since they couldn't find him anymore and when they got the coin they thought they came across his child (cuz ofc, she had his coin, saw the ship and her last name was Turner) they figured it would be much easier to use her blood than finding Will.

I read a post (on Tumblr I believe) that said that Norrington is a hero/romantic lead, but he’s in the wrong story. Norrington would make a FANTASTIC male lead in a Jane Austen-esque book/movie. He’s handsome, well-spoken, good, kind to others, high ranking in the military. If this was a Jane Austen book, Elizabeth would ADORE him. But alas, this is a ghost/pirate fantasy story, so he gets screwed over because in this genre good guys are bad guys.

The thing is, they need everyone’s blood (all the pirates who stole and used the gold) to free the curse. The whole crew. William Turner father was also cursed so they needed his blood as well.

[@Creativestruggles]

25:20 They needed the blood because when the crew stole the coins, they fell under a curse. To break it, they needed to return all pieces and their blood. However because they cast away Will's dad, not all pieces were returned. So with the medallion and Will's blood, they could become human again

[@katiehaley2850]

[@robbiescott61]

The coins themselves aren't cursed. It is the act of taking them, hence why Jack was cursed and not Elizabeth or Will. It's also interesting to think about how Bootstrap Bill has been immortally drowning for the past 10 years until the curse was finally lifted and Davy Jones abducted him onto the Flying Dutchman for even more eternal suffering :)

The way I've always thought Barbossa's death was meant to be explained is that going in and out of moonlight basically reset their bodies when their flesh disappeared and then reappeared. Hence why Jack's injury from being stabbed by Barbosa didn't kill him.

[@monsterhanna6691]

Maybe, but I think them being cursed in general is why nothing happened. Barbossa wasn't in the moonlight when he was killed, and Jack could've been acting when he was stabbed. Plus, Barbossa wasn't affected at all when Elizabeth stabbed him before seeing all of them cursed. But, I see your point.
