Pirates of the Caribbean ~ Jack Sparrow's Serious Moments 

Because he jokes around so much, when he becomes serious, he really becomes serious. Such a strong and powerful character

"People aren't cargo, mate."

"It's nothing personal, Jack. It's just good business." "FIRE!"

"People aren't cargo, mate." - Jack "Your good deed cost me, Jack." - Beckett "And you have spared me any possibility of ending up as anything other than what I am. And for that, I truly thank you." - Jack

when you realize that jack was branded a pirate because he freed slaves.

"What the Black Pearl really is...is freedom" This means a LOT when you remember how Jack became a pirate.

That moment when you realize Jack saved slaves lives that made him a pirate which led to his death and to strike a deal with the dutchmen. He was a better man than anyone in the movie and we didnt even know it

"The world used to be a bigger place" "No, theres just less in it" At the time Jack and Barbossa had this little talk they had pretty much done it all. They were pirates, theives, murderers, free men(as in they upheld no law except their own...and the code, of course), they did whatever they wanted whenever they felt like it. They sailed the seven seas, with Jack as captain and Barbossa as first mate. They were friends before Barbossa mutinied and took the Pearl and marooned Jack to die. They were immortals once, and had both died before. Each had tried killing each other, and Jack did kill Barbossa, squaring their debt for the betrayal. They'd struck deals with spirits and both bore curses, Jack from Jones and both from the Aztec gold. They each, for a time, captained the Pearl which was the fastest ship in the sea. Fought cursed spirits, monsters, and knew a hell of a lot about the supernatural. They themselves were legends amongst pirates, and were amongst the most wanted and hunted pirates by the British navy (and others) which was arguably the most powerful navy in history. They were actual Pirate Lords. When I thought about all of this and rewatched the movies this scene becomes more profound by the sheer fact that they had done it all, and were still here. They'd seen the world, and knew most of it's secrets. "The world used to be a bigger place" and "There's just less in it." Is about two legends commenting on the state of the world, and how it's become less mysterious, less wouderous, and being slowly conquered and killed off by small minded, greedy, corrupted men. This conversation took place over the carcass of the Kraken, one of the most feared and powerful monsters of the sea. It's actually quite a sorrowful moment between these two, and in Beckett's words "the last of a dying breed." They are some of the last from the end of an era, and the remnants of of a bygone age.

“People aren’t cargo mate,” that quote adds something different as he became a pirate for saving slaves and giving them freedom

"You've spared me the possibility of becoming anything other then what I am" To me, that line speaks volumes about Jack. He never wanted to be a pirate, it was forced on him because he did a good deed. Yes, by the time we see him in Curse of the Black Pearl, he's adapted and embraced it, but to me, Jack never really let go of what could've been. That's why I always feel an unspoken anger in Jack's voice when he says that. Becket lost some profit, Jack lost the only life he had ever known

There should be a Captain in there somewhere

"Just close your eyes and pretend it's all just a bad dream. That's how i get by" - Captain Jack Sparrow

I love the scene with the scars at 0:20, Elizabeth has heard all the stories about the legendary Captain Jack Sparrow and his incredible exploits but never realised what scars those would have left, he survived those things but lost bits of himself along the way.

"She's only a ship mate" Must have been hard to say for someone like jack

I just watched at world end a few days ago and when Jack let will stab the heart I realized that Jack have done nothing but save will and Elizabeth throughout the movies whilst they did nothing but sell him

Imagine drawing your sword when literally looking into the mouth of the Kraken. Being brave isn't not running away, it's knowing how to stand when you have no way out.

"People aren't cargo mate" It's just something about that line and how Jack delivers it that makes it more special than anything else that has been said in this series. Also, "She's just a ship mate" and "And you have spared me any possibility of ending out as anything than what I am, and for that I truly thank you" are also powerful.

I wish they would've left the deleted scenes in. Don't get me wrong, I love Jack whenever he's being random and well, Jack Sparrow but it would be interesting to know more about his back story.

So sad that many of these are deleted scenes. They add so much to Jack's character and motivations

“A ship isn’t just a keel and a hull - that’s what a ship needs. But what a ship is. What the Black Pearl really is, is freedom.” - Jack to Elizabeth. “Jack! The Pearl?” “She’s only a ship mate.” - Jack to Gibbs. Jack at that point lost his ship. His freedom.

He was such a badass in the first. I don't know who that was in the fifth movie

0:15 This truly breaks my heart, and not just because I’m a maJor FaNgIrl. The scar, the burns; oh god. Captain Jack Sparrow is actually a great person. He freed slaves, which is basically why Beckett marked the P on his arm. He then had nothing so he had to strike a deal with Jones to become a captain, and that’s how he became a pirate. He was never the type of murderous, insane pirate who enjoyed invading places only to kill and get a few shillings; he’d never even dream of it.

The world's still the same there's just less in it...

That's why Jack Sparrow isn't Jack Sparrow at all without Johnny Depp

Was I the only one who thought that when Jack said, "Why should I sail with any of you? Four of you have tried to kill me in the past, and one of you succeeded!" That it was more funny than serious?

Has anyone actually thought how brave jack actually is for him to say "it's only a ship mate" must of actually stung for him to say that. Can anyone actually keep track on how many times he's made reference to the pearl?

they really need a potc prequel, showing jack and gibbs as men of the royal navy, jack making a deal with jones, and barbossa's betrayal.

Are we just gonna ignore how mortified jack looked when he was looking at will's dead body

"Your good deed cost me, Jack" "And you have spared me any possibility of ending up as anything other than what I am, and for that, I truly thank you." That's incredibly powerful.

Just to fathom that his one line: “Elizabeth..we’re not back.” That line runs so deep with so much emotion, he was the one who had to bring Elizabeth the message that her father died and there was no hope in retrieving him. He protected Elizabeth throughout the whole movies, he cared for her.

I wish there were scenes like this in Dead Men Tell No Tales. He had no purpose in that movie other than to be the comic relief to accompany everyone else's quest for the Trident.

This music and the whole video made me almost cry

After watching this, I just concluded that Jack’s life is actually very sad, hard and cold, and especially his past. He actually with jokes wants to escape from his ugly reality and he is very caring and emotional, and I can confirm that with that scene where Will is dying and where he is hesitant about what to do with Jones's heart. Stab it and become immortal or leave it to his friend Will who needs more. I really sympathize with Captain Jack Sparrow!

Davy Jones: Do you fear death!? Captain Jack Sparrow: You have no idea..

These moments of Captain Jack Sparrow has shown me that I can never see the movies the same way again. He's suffered injuries, betrayal, slavery and death and yet he keeps coming back all in pursuit of true freedom. He's a true pirate.

“Truth”? *Then shows his wrists and his chest* “No ‘truth’ at all”.

I remember his face when he shot Barbossa in the first movie. He just stood there silently, his left arm down to his side and right arm fresh from shooting Barbossa. And he looked so serious, no smile, no movements and most of all- a blank face. And that singular moment had me speechless for a good 3 minutes because he's such a crazy, weird and jokey character that any moment he turns serious- it's _serious_

"The world's still the same, there's just less in it..." as the further the movies advance more and more legends and curses of the seven seas begin to dissapear, a great franchise ended in this last movie with poseidons trident, I really wish they would keep making movies, not even Harry Potter or anything else has caught my admiration like this

When he shows his scars to Elizabeth and says “People aren’t cargo, mate” I gained a whole new respect for him.

1:09 When Jack said “pirate,” I imagine that’s his way of telling Elizabeth “you’re no better than me.”

"And you have spared me any possibility of ending up as anything, other than what I am. And for that, I truly thank you." - this just hits different

‘You only appreciate something when it’s not there’ So rarely a sombere character, when it does come through, it comes hard.

I think a serious moment was when he lost all of his rum, lol.

There were no serious moments for Jack in the latest film. Jack was more like a side character.

2:40 Even though she left him for dead his tone isn't mocking or anything like that Jack is genuinely sad for Elizabeth.

I noticed a lot of these scenes are with Elizabeth. The soft and sincere side to Jack is always there, but I can't help but think she brought it out of him the most.

how did it take me so long to realize that he freed slaves and that’s what caused him to be a pirate. something about this entire video squeezed my heart in ways i can’t even explain. phenomenal acting

No one: Everyone: Living in eternal bliss to the comedic side of Jack. Me: Breaking down at the mere quote of "People aren't cargo, mate."

sad that they changed Jack´s backstory in Dead Men Tell no Tales.

Captain Jack Sparrow is the bravest man I know. All the other men in the movie "act" like their macho and are a coward when they cry, but when Jack cries, they know not to judge him. Jack's tears are genuine, he is a man who has truly been through extreme excruciating agony. And lived to tell the tale. And was forced to watch as others didn't. They died slow agonizing deaths. And when he sees someone in pain, it breaks his heart. When Will died, he was shattered. Because Will had become a BROTHER to him. (Sorry Will/Jack-ers) Regardless of whether you believe that or not. But he had to be a soldier and move on. And it killed him to do so. But when Will came back his heart rejoiced. And together they made full canvas and blew the Endeavor into the water. Obliterating his true enemy at last.

The moments Elizabeth hears of Jack’s feats, the validity is literally scared across his body and those eyes hold many secrets and truths to make him who is. Captain Jack Sparrow of the Black Pearl and the Pirate of the Caribbean.

“If you choose to love your heart away, you’ll lose it for certain.” That quote is a good one as I believe it’s synonyms with “Those who don’t care once cared too much.” Because I feel Jack cared about people and loved the freedom he has but he knows he can’t do it anymore or he’ll lose himself. 2:50

captain jack sparrow will make us either laugh or cry.....when jack really matters as a pirate is not when he makes impossible escapes but when he proves that he is a really really good man and a real pirate who loves his ship and his crew more than anything and who would risk everything for it. This is what to be a pirate means and i hope captain sparrow would agree

"people aren't cago mate" literally made me tear up cause you think of jack as goofy and well. a pirate, but when you hear how he says that, it made me feel so deep. and have a deeper respect for the man

While this does an exceptional job of showing off Captain Jack's serious side, I will say that they missed one very powerful moment, from the very beginning of the Curse of the Black Pearl. When he sails by the hanging pirate corpses, and he bows his head respectfully. That is just as much a serious moment as any other.

"Unless he knew you wouldn't believe the truth even if he told it to you" - Captain Jack Sparrow my Favorite line.

"when an idiot shows himself as a strong person is just an arrogant liar, but when an actually strong person, shows himself just like an idiot, he is a person to be scared of, cuz no one knows, how smart and dangerous he really is"

"Why Fight when you can negotiate?" "Not all the treasures, are Gold and silver Mate"

Ahh yes, the greatest love story in all movies. Jack and The Black Pearl.

✋Spoiler Alert. You have been warned Facts you need to know: Jack saved a group of slaves, hence making the East India Company mark him as a pirate, and they also sink his ship the Wicked Wrench. Also know, that Jack was once enslaved sooooooo. He also used to name much the monsters he encountered 'Beastie.' That's why when he faced the kraken he was like "Hello Beastie." The Sirens once tried to seduce him and his rag-tag crew, using their magical voices. Only Jack was able to withstand their seductive singing, because all he wanted was pure freedom, and the Siren's singing can't give him that. When Jack was young, he didn't really like pirates. He didn't like to be called a thief too. I guess the unfortunate turn of events led him to become a pirate. Opinion: I see Jack as like, Tupac. And please, dont start rambling about how Jack cant rap, because I tell you, if he was a composer, he would make the best rhymes using words that have 14 syllables. But back to the point, Jack has two sides of him. A beautiful part, and a really ugly one. Just like Tupac, he has a side on which he writes the nicest and prettiest poetry, and then another side where he makes songs that are always against society, specifically the cops. The darker side was made from tragedies that has happened to both of them. And the lighter side of both Jack and Tupac shows the real them, the person they were before all the tragic experiences. I guess that's what makes Jack a pirate hero. A pirate who pillages merchant ships, drinks rum, and feels no remorse to almost anything he does. A bad pirate who is willing to charm girls and use them for profit (remember that famous scene where Jack got slapped on the face twice by two fine ladies? yeah. There's a RU-vid video explaining that. Search it up folks.) But know that he is also a hero who sacrificed his achievements, and titles to his friends in need, he is a hero who will save a friend despite of the fact that the person may have almost killed him, actually killed him, and/or betrayed him *cough Barbossa, Elizabeth and Will cough*. He has a moral compass, saving more lives than any other person in POTC. And also make sure to read the books, The second book truly displayed his loyalty and love to his crew. Anyways, serious Jack is the real Jack.

When I was a kid I thought jack was just a funny pirate but now i see he's a true legend CAPTAIN JACK SPARROW!🏴‍☠️🏴‍☠️

“We had a deal, Jack. I contracted you to deliver cargo on my behalf, you chose to liberate it.” “…people aren’t cargo, mate.”

3:19 coolest fucking moment in my life. I remember that scene so vividly. The unexpected entrance of Jack at the highest moment of tension and that epic ass music ahhhhhh man, chills, so good.

It is very unfortunate that the writers preferred to turn pirate/good man-playing-a-fool into a fool-playing-a-pirate in Jack's case. He had some great moments in the first movie, but his character was going downwards the weirdo avenue ever since. Alas, he was incredible at first- and had hidden depths worth exploring. I'm very happy to find this video, it's a balm to my soul.

If this is the end of Captain Jack Sparrow i accept it. Johnny doesnt have to work with those who stabbed him in his back. We need a new character for Johnny Depp like the amazing Captain Jack Sparrow.

Is it me or with the music it makes it a hundred times more sad, you feel pity for Captain Jack Sparrow.

I love Jack. He's a great character. Sure, he has his funny moments, but these serious moments make him even better. The back story that was cut is an amazing part of who Jack is. It's a shame the decided to cut it, and I wish they didn't. A lot of people love Jack because he's a random, funny, rum-loving pirate. But I love Jack because he's a all of that, *and* a good man. Just like Will and Elizabeth often say he is. Cheers to you Captain Sparrow! We love you!

1:00 I love these scene. Everybody is discussing about ethical subjects and Jack is just standing there making dog faces

0:34 Ok...okokokok How am I only NOW REALIZING after ALL these years, that they were talking about Jack freeing SLAVES!?!?!?

"And you have spared me any possibility of ending up as anything other than what I am. For that, I truly thank you."

Gahhhh i wish they hadn't removed so many scenes from the Pirates series that made some of the characters so much better defined and dimensional like Jack for example!

I started to tear up! This is sad and beautiful! This is why I love this man

DAMN!! He is a FANTASTIC actor!!! Disney is a castle of FOOLS!

I love Johnny and I love this character so much. These moments show who Jack really is. He's smart, empathetic, as well as funny. He's a real human being, not just a silly drunk man. The complexity of Jack's character was completely lost in 4 & 5

You can see that he is a gem, right in his eyes. He is too good for this world. Too good and too kind. The innocence he possesses and the heartbreaks he has survived, made him wiser. That's what Jack is- a wise, witty, kind and dishonest pirate. At all costs, he wants his happiness whether if it is in small things or materialism. That's Jack. Truly selfish who doesn't want to hurt any innocent.

is it ok that this brought a tear to my eye ? i friking love this series XD

4:10 love what you did with the music there

"The only thing that matters is what a man can do and what a man can't do" -Jack Sparrow

3:26 I don't know how many people notice this, but you can see Kraken's left eye in this scene.

"People arent cago mate"Mighty Captain Jack Sparrow

How about "firstly, upon your word, you will bring no harm to Angelica."? I love that one, it brings out a completely different (but serious) side of Jack...

I just love the moments like these when a playful character in a story gets serious, which means things are really serious, and that's where the story gets interesting.

1:15 OMG, they should have left that scene in, that and the line in the same scene where he says "People aren't cargo, mate." It so perfectly shows who he really is, deep down. I understand why they changed it to something more lighthearted considering the way the rest of this scene played out and how the whole thing was being inter-cut with the stuff going on aboard the Pearl. In the end, it was a chance to see both Jack and Barbossa wheeling and dealing, each trying to further his own cause for getting away and getting to Shipwreck Cove. But THIS part, this allows you to see the true depths of their relationship, why Beckett was so fixated on Jack and why the thing he wanted most in the world was Jack dead.

Genuinely tearing up here, seeing Cap in a different light than just a drunk pirate- he's a good man with a heart and ... we aren't getting him back. Dammit Disney.

My heart can't take this, he's been through so much, he really is such a brave, good man. He was a better person than most of the other characters in the movies. Ugh i love him sm haha

Hans Zimmer really did an amazing work for composing this masterpiece of a movie.

I just realized the "Hello beastie" line Jack said was also in Maleficent

Jack deciding to give Will the chance to stab the heart shows his true character, a man that on the surface may seem like he cares for no one, but inside, he will do what is right

Jack is the best character ever played by Johnny depp😃😍😍😍... literally fell in love with this character and cried a little when I thought he died😳🙈

"The problem is not the problem. The problem is your attitude about the problem."

3:04 the rythm and timing of the tones fits so perfectly in these 20 seconds. absolutely brilliantly distributed

Watching these scenes when I have more understanding of the movies & the story as a whole... It makes me respect the Captain a hell of a lot more than I already did... This man saved slaves & became a pirate because of it, lost his ship three times & lost another, more peaceful life... When I was younger, I thought being Jack Sparrow would be cool as hell, now?... I feel bad for the man...

The most Bravest, Smartest, and Kindest captain we will always remember and continue sailing to that beautiful horizon making way towards the true land of freedom

Jack's seriousness as important as when he is funny or silly or the action scenes.

"People aren't cargo mate" great line by Captain Jack Sparrow

And that's why he's the best! The "Hello Beastie" still gives me chills!!!!!!!! He is just the BEST!!!!!

Such an amazing actor. No one can ever take that away from him. 💜

0:16-0:32 i almost cried

I love it when the most crazy person starts to get serious😄 Jack Sparrow, my beloved Captain!💘💘

These darker and more emotional moments really make Jack an amazing character
