Humanity and free will? Last I checked, pirates were murdering thieves who pillaged and plundered merchant vessels at their pleasure and didn’t give a fuck about who they targeted as long as their target wasn’t a credible threat like a nation’s navy. Fuck the black flag, Old Glory forever 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
A few years ago a few friends and me rented a small yacht for two weeks, just for some leisurely cruising down the adriatic coast. I'm not saying we planned for it (why, we would never... ;) ), but we brought a Jolly Roger and one day when we were well lubricated, my buddy's girlfriend gave exactly this speech in the small marina we were moored before heading out. The look of the old farts on their luxury boats as a gaggle of drunk uni students yelled "hoist the colors" while more or less expertly steering their rental boat out of the marina were priceless.
@@CharlesA2 sounds "cool" on paper, but just try to imagine it playing out on your head... its cringe, and only looks fun if you're drunk beyond sanity😂😂
I love her strength & courage & leadership!. Her loss gave her great passion & vision-The hat soaring up was a sign the winds had changed in their favor. Hoist the colors. Great scene thank you for sharing it
Turning what was a funeral dirge into a battle anthem is some amazing work by Zimmer. I really wish the pirate flag(s) would become the new "rebel" flag. It's completely inclusive and basically says FU to all authority in general.
Yes, because aligning ourselves with a bunch of thieving assholes who take whatever they want from merchant ships is obviously a great idea /s And yes, fuck you to all authority in general up until a pirate threatens to shoot you in the face and take whatever they want. Then all of a sudden, “where the fuck is the Navy?!?”.
Fighting and dying for their own chosen way of life. Their own rules, own customs, own culture. Even after all these years this theme still holds true, now especially given the current state of the world.
Yeah, but the budget for that will be immense... and the CGI is not that advanced in 2007, too. If they do it today I think they're going to achieve that, but the past is the past oh well.
What I love best about this scenes was the unification in decisions of all the crew of the fleet. After Elizabeth rallies her crew, all the other crews also hoist their colors. The crews made the decision, not their captains. The beauty of a pirate's democracy.
the only downer i can think of for the final battle: it wasn't a huge one. they were building up to a fleet vs fleet final epic grand showdown, but they didn't do that. instead, all we got was a one v one duel in the middle of a whirlpool. Still impressively done, but it just feels like a missed opportunity to not have a huge fleet battle. was it not in the budget? was it too taxing for 2007 computers? whatever the reason, it just feels like that for a war for freedom, having two ships doing all the fighting is just lazy. and Star Wars had a massive fleet battle 2 years prior in Revenge of the Sith, so don't tell me it couldn't have been done.
In my opinion, the 1v1 was epic enough. More fighting would've been pointless because we're not emotionally invested in the other crews as we are with the Black Pearl's crew. Just seeing ships bomb each other doesn't give an exciting feeling. People would've complained that the fight should have focused more on the Pearl vs Dutchman and not these random last-minute pirate lords we just met.
PoC 3 used to be the most expensive movie in the history, the cost of the motion capture of Davy Jones, multiples boats, every people who plays pirate…this cost to many money that’ s why there is no big fight at the end. Gore Verbinsky have some care about the detail and he wants the most realistic movie and a battle with undered of ships was not possible. With the actual CGI it must be possible but in 2007 the fx didn’t doing the job. If you want more information you can check 2 vidéos about this movie and Gore Verbinsky : the first is on the Channel "le tropeur" And the second on the channel "alert Spoiler" . BUT a little disclaimer : these channel are in french ( I m French myself, sorry for my bad english) but in think that you can use subtitles ;) I Hope the my explenation help you :)
Imagine being on one of the navy ships. You grossly outnumber and outgun the gathering of pirates before you. And yet, when you look to your enemy's ships, you don't see a single white flag flying.
The best and the most disappointing scene in the movie i really thought that the pirate fleet would go to battle after that as it should but no they just raised their flags nothing else
HOIST THE COLORS HIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1
