@@thomasmcginley7944 Well if it's one thing I know that Jack does is that he doesn't tell the full truth....so maybe the Captain he served in this scene got it from Tia, and Jack just said he got it from her
So THAT’S why Jack is so obsessed with his equipment His hat, his head decor, his weapons, his coat, everything Jack values as his is because they were gifts from the people he saved, from the people who saw him for what he was, a captain, and the greatest pirate they’d ever seen
This perfectly demonstrates why jack is such an extraordinary captain. His methods are unconventional and very effective and defeats his enemies using his mind instead of brute strength.
What I love about the slow-mo walk is, that there's no gloating or anything. It's just that cold look of Jack going "Goodbye" - He knew he had outplayed Salazar, as soon as he gave chase
Indeed. That was the moment that established Jack Sparrow as the guy who didn't just pull ideas out of his coat-sleeves - he planned it out -perfectly-
He gave Salazar fair warning beforehand as well. Albeit in a taunting way, he says "Surrender now and I shall let you live..." However, Salazar blinded by his own arrogance, would not have it. He would not be made a fool of by some dirty pirate, so he chases after Jack to The Devil’s Triangle. After successfully maneuvering his ship for the bootleg turn and with his crew looking on, Jack looks over at Salazar for the first-time face to face. The swashbuckling attitude that was obvious before when he was atop the crow’s nest is gone and in its place is left nothing but the expression of silent victory. Salazar underestimated Jack, but Jack never really killed Salazar directly. Indeed, Salazar’s own wrath is what ultimately lead to his undoing.
I love the way barbossa listens to Salazar's tale with both contempt (surely for Salazar who exterminated pirates) and intimate appreciatiation for Jack who was brave enough to defeat the CAPITÀN, even if they are, for some ways, enemies!
Hats off to the writers, producers and directors of this incredible series, they put this story together with such incredible scenes and characters. I think it's the best adventure drama movie series ever made.... wish Johnny Depp would finish it out so we could see the end journey of Captain Jack Sparrow... fingers crossed. 🤞 ⚔
If I recall, Captain Teague had Jack in his late teen, very early adult years estimated by other stories so he wasn't a captain yet until Jack was a teen. I think he may have been first mate to whomever this captain was (don't know the name) and he managed to get his captain to allow his son as a cabin boy. Kind of cool in my opinion that he would do that.
“The last of the ships were…burning before my eyes. And in that moment of, victory, it’s when I heard it. One ship was trying to escape through the smoke. And there, in the crow’s nest, there was this young, pirate…boy! He stood there, looking like…like a little bird! And from that day he earned him a name that would haunt me for the rest of my days. Jack the Sparrow.” - Salazar
Real talk, this is the main reason why Jack Sparrow wanted everyone to him "Captain Jack Sparrow" because being a captain is his greatest achievement in his life. And Captain Teague (his father) is standing proudly behind him for being a captain. This is the most memorable experience of Captain Jack Sparrow's life that he'll never forget. Even when he's drunk as hell. But also THE WAY HE STARED AT SALAZAR'S FACE WHILE WALKING WITH HIS COMPASS IS SO BADASS
@@HulkVahkiin No if you look closely at his clothes, it look very identical with the ones that Captain Teague wore in Pirates of the Caribbean World's End or Stranger Tides
People bash this movie, but I actually found Salazar to be a pretty haunting villain. That shot of him desperately taking over the wheel as he glances over to the young Jack smirking, followed by his crew's doomed decent into the Devil's Triangle is chilling. The entire death of the crew scene leaves me feeling slight empathy for Salazar's men and chills as Salazar is resurrected in the "burning" waters.
I never realized till now that the man standing behind Jack when the other pirates give tribute to him is Captain Teague, Jack’s father. That makes this moment even more awesome. A proud father watched as his son became a respected pirate captain.
This was the moment that established Jack Sparrow's career, and what kind of pirate he was going to be. Not because he was a deadly swordsman (though he was no slouch with a blade), nor because he was one of the best marksmen on the Seven Seas (though this, he certainly was). No...it was because he could whip up a plan on the fly, and pull it off with STYLE. "The best pirate I've ever seen," indeed.
Not just that, but he values the true meaning behind being a pirate It isn’t about the treasure at the end, it’s about the journey along the way, the friends you make, the sights you see He knows that what really matters about being a pirate is being free His last line in Curse of the Black Pearl says it best “Now bring me that horizon” He said that as if he’s hoping for en endless adventure, because if the adventure never ends, you’ll never stop meeting people, never stop making friends, never stop sailing your ship, never stop being free Jack is a brilliant minded, combat capable, loyal, kindhearted, belief valuing man, and those are the traits of an amazing pirate, nay, the traits of the greatest pirate anyone has ever seen
@@logeyperogi1805 so true! Even in movies before this, he kept his friends safe. His undying wish to stay immortal, but he let it go to save Will and then again Angelica (although that was strategical to get rid of Blackbeard)
At 4:27 i got tears in my eyes. I love this backstory for jack. He always wanted all that stuff back, not for greed, but for the sentimental value because his crew gave it to him when they named him captain.
2:55 is literally my favorite scene of this whole movie that confident walk was everything. I wouldn’t mind a spin-off of this franchise to adventures of the younger jack.
This scene is so good and captures Jack Sparrow’s essence so perfectly; it literally makes no sense to me that the rest of the movie fails so miserably in that regard
That's more so a character moment. He does realise the consequences that entail but he knows his entire life he was constantly being chased by the person he screwed over. It's symbolic too as the compass shows what he wants the most and by the time he trades it in, it kind of points to nothing. Jack knows what he wants most is to be chased because it's just fun and a thrill ride to him. It's truly a pirate's life.
"Round the world, and back again, that's the sailors way!"-Willy Wonka "Take whatcha can, give nothing back."-Jack Sparrow "No regrets, except for not tratemarketing that phrase."-Chris Pratt
@@cargopilotguy305 LOL That Would Be HILARIOUS If Will's Ship Just Showed Up When He Sees Barbossa Arguing With Jack Again And Two Hornpipes Plays In The Background As They Brawl But Poor Bootstrap Gets Shanghaied By Some Pirate Crew And Has To Work Again For Another 20 Years And Will Has To Free His Father Again
Young Jack spinning his compass as he grins at Salazar is so good bro especially when the more dramatic version of the main pirates theme than smoothly flows into be apart of Salazars theme it’s so good 2:55
Hats off to whoever picked Anthony Dela Torre for this young Jack role. He nailed it, i must say. The antics, the voice, the look, even the smirks. I know there was a lot of CGI involved to make him look more like Johnny, but still. You gotta admit this guy did a great job. ❤️
@Kei56 It was still Johnny acting the role and his voice. They had johnny do it and then the body double repeated the movements and they meshed with Johnny cgi style. See comment below
@@alumlovescake It was Johnny but the young guy then copied his movements and they meshed with Johnny, and at certain angles meshed certain body parts Amazing cgi isnt it. I understand they have done this in another film before with Kurt Russell. “The big thing people have a difficult time wrapping their head around is that it was still Johnny doing the performance,” Brozenich says. “Johnny would do the performance, and then we would have the body double watch Johnny to the smallest detail. What that gave us, the VFX team, was a target for what younger skin looks like: how it reacts, how, sadly, young flesh moves differently to older flesh. It gave us raw material. And on top of that [we would] take parts of the other.” If the VFX team needed a “bit of a collar bone,” they’d use the double’s and “track” it over Depp. Although somewhat macabre in its process, the final result is nothing short of astounding. The process is not unlike how Kurt Russell was de-aged for Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2, or the late Carrie Fisher for Rogue One. And Brozenich says there’s more like it on the way." Source: Inverse It seems many have misunderstood and do not realise it is Johnny.
I don't think anyone could play Captain Jack Sparrow as good as Johnny Depp. Not surprised that it was actually Johnny playing him in this scene through CGI
@@leesuho5951 Others are far more capable of interpreting someone else’s body language and looks then one himself. We can put in words what u were showing at that time. It’s simple wouldn’t u say🤷🏻♀️
Basically all Jack's most prized treasures were all gifts given to him by his first crew. I like that it makes everything he keeps mean way more. Also the last gift he was given and the thing he held onto the longest was the gun given to him by his first mate
Dnbray This scene right here is when Jack becomes captain of the pearl. This is the Wicked Wench and becomes the Black Pearl when it is sunk by Cutler Beckett and returned from the depths by Davy Jones.
There was a book series a few years back that was all about Jack Sparrow when he was a kid. He sails around on a small ship with his crew of Arabella the first mate, Fitzwilliam the spoiled rich kid, Jean and Tumen the Indian/creole guys, and Constance the magic cat. It was a pretty good series as I remember it. I haven't read it in years, I had to Google it to remember all the names
@@halo-5004why would barbosa tell Salazar, the guy with hold over barbossas life at the moment, he was there and a part of the crew that gave Salazar his biggest disgrace.
3:02 when Jack finishes the side-eye and just idly turns away; to me it’s like he’s saying “That was easy. Adios.” That casual dismissal of his older, more experienced adversary would’ve haunted Salazar more than anything else about this defeat; to know he’d been so completely outmaneuvered and outwitted by one so young and seemingly vulnerable that his demise wasn’t worth a second glance, it was such a sure thing. Depp/ de la Torre absolutely killed it in this scene.
Totally agree. The look on Salazar's face when he realized he'd never stood a chance, that this kid bested him so thoroughly. It also explains why Jack's captain entrusted him with the compass, his ship and his crew, he knew that kid could be the best pirate the world had ever seen, and his crew's only hope at survival. Also love the poetic justice Sparrow delivered by having Salazar run himself aground in the Devil's Triangle, not only a power move to defeat an opponent without firing a shot, but also implying that Salazar doomed himself, all Jack did was get out the way.
Don't forget: Jack is also walking **away** from the wheel. Jack is so confident in the defeat of his foe and the safety of his own ship that he isn't even bothering to steer anymore. The destruction of his enemy isn't even complete but he knows it's inevitable.
Everybody says marvels about Jack, but I don't see anyone pointing out how good was Salazar as a villain. Seriously, Javier Bardem delivered an outstanding portrayal as him.
Fun fact: The very same ship we see here, the "Wicked Wench", became the Black Pearl. It was sunk, and Jack wanted Davy Jones to bring him back exactly that ship.
@@squarebear619 well this is from the pirates fandom: After failing to rescue the Wench, Jack made a deal with Davy Jones, the ghostly captain of the Flying Dutchman. Jones raised the Wicked Wench from the depths, giving Jack thirteen years as captain, in exchange for one hundred years of service aboard the Dutchman. With the Wench's new charred look, Jack renamed her the Black Pearl.
Until Barbossa mutiny, him and Bootstrap bill (which is William's father who they put a cannonball on his leg, sunk into the ocean, and went straight to davy jones locker.) Barbossa took the ship and his crew.
I think my most favorite and unknown part of this scene is that Jack's father, Edward Teague, is just sitting there behind him proud as can be. Made my day when I saw that.
He probably wanted to see if any men, his son included, could live up to the task of controlling the ship in times of distress. Of course if they couldn't I'm sure he'd do it himself but seeing as his son did it must've made him proud
They put Johnny Depps eyes on his face and either gave him prosthetics for the nose or cgi that too. Either way they didn’t need the kid for this lol they could’ve just had Johnny do it if they were gonna CGI anyone’s face in the first place
It was Johnny playing the role. He was meshed with body double Anthony who copied his movements. I gave info a bit further up this page with a quote from one source but I knew this before. Many got confused and didn't realise. They wanted the mesh for the younger skin and also movements for when younger. CGI
i remember the first movie i saw with Johnny Depp, it was 1990's Cry-Baby, and i was a child, but it was still love at first sight, and he kind of looked like this. have you seen that one? cuz i recommend it if you want more young Johnny.
I'm sure a few other iconic characters fit this personality, not necessarily in the same way as Captain Jack Sparrow, but in their own unique ways instead.
0:07 This is moment you realise that the writers didn't watch the previous movies. Jack got that compass from Calipso (it is clearly said in the 2nd movie)
Explanation i saw from another comment: may be the compass fell to the water when Jack's ship sunk (the ship he is in would later become the Black Pearl after being raised by Davy Jones) and Calypso (the goddess of sea) retrieved it and gave it to him later.
I'm not even a huge PoTC fan, but this is one of the most epic scenes in modern cinema. Jack's smug look as he walks swinging his compass just screams, "It was your own arrogance that did you in." One of the greatest besyings of an adversary ever.
I think the reason why the compass never bring jack to a place or somewhere that he want is because what he want the most is adventure, that's why he never find it because he think it was something like a treasure
I don't agree. He had a clear thing he desired every time he used the compass. In this scene the compass showed him a way to survive by using the Devil's Triangle. In the Curse of the Black Pearl it lead him to the Black Pearl. In the Dead Man's Chest it still was pointing to the Pearl (his symbol of adventure and the sea) which is why he could not use it to find Davy Jones' heart and needed to con Elizabeth into leading him to it. In At World's End it would not work in Davy Jones' Locker as they were off the edge of the map and Jack was also partly mad. He gave it to Will so that Will would lead Beckett to the pirate's cove where they could end the fight. In On Stranger Tides he had used it to learn the route to the Fountain of Youth and gave it to Gibbs to lead him to freedom by stealing back the shrunken Pearl. So as you can see even when Jack gave the compass to others, it was still serving him. The only exception being when he sold it for a bit of rum.
@@trueblue6201 lol no. What you truly desire are buried deepdown on your heart. Most of the time u doesn't know what is that. It's something u would offer anything even the loved ones (eg : thanos). So just let me breakdown your theory. U can't get on any adventure/journey if you're dead surviving is part of the journey. And just think about because of what he did he got on another adventure where he needs to fight a dead men i guess it's a win win situation then. Another proof, barbossa use the compass , he doesn't know where jack, he is trying to go to jack place using the compass because he knew that the compass will get you to your truly desire. But if u watch it again there's a scene where he got anxious because he doesn't know if this compass is really going to bring him to jack, because he knew that's not what he truly desire. Fast forward he found jack and he thought that "oh yeah the compass right" but then jack gave him a hint about her daughter, and he opened the compass right away and he saw it pointing at her daughter, and at that moment he realized that's what he truly desire are. So it's all a big "coincidence" plot that her daughter was with jack that's why barbossa able to find him with compass, if that girl stay in the village, they will go to her village. You can't have 2 truly desire. And jack never knew what he desire, he "thought" he knew there's so much scene that shows u jack always confused as were the compass go. Just like the first trilogy he thought he wants to rule the sea by becoming thedavy jones but after the movie we know it's not, he keeps trying to find what he desire but everytime he met that "goal" he realized that's not. Just think about, if his truly desire is that water, why bother giving it to that girl that i forgot her name? To save her ? Isn't that mean she is the one jack want? But jack left her again in the end. Lol All the series is just a proof that none of that goal is what jack truly desire. That's why i think it's the adventure of the journey he desire, to life at the fullest. He doesn't want any girl, any gold, nor an immortality he simply wants to enjoy the unknown journey ahead. But yeah if you believe jack have vivid imagination on what he desire, is up to you.
Amazing teamwork between the new leader Jack Sparrow and his crew members. The Captain scheming the plan he had in mind and giving the guidelines, and the team executing it with timing and precision.
This is a great idea because it will close the how Jack became a captain or something but he still needs the pearl. How he got it so the second part of his origins. But it will be hard. They use CGI for this scenes. They will need to cast a young actor. I still want Johnny Depp though.
The depth of body language acted out in the brief moment of the tribute scene is the stuff of legend. Movement style, micro expressions, tiny little ticks here and there. Depp says more without words from 3:55 to 4:30 than some actors do in entire movies.
@@sangitaparmarsharma5851o kidding? I thought they used cg on him since they kept him looking 27 for the movie even tho hes like 50 during filming. I guess you could say he did try a little too hard to be jack sparrow mannerism wise. He did alright though for another actor, respect.
@@ethosterros9430From "says more without words than some actors do in entire movies" to "did alright though" once you heard it wasn't Johnny Depp... You're annoying.
It is him actually! Caption Teague! Also at 2:27 you can look there's young Barbosa too just for a sec (guy with red coat and his iconic hat when they were throwing the ropes to the rocks)!
@@chandlerbing1800 Actually, Barbossa and Teague are here. You can see Barbossa, who wears a coat similar to Teague, throwing the ropes to turn. Teague here is clean-shaven, but Barbossa had a beard here.
What I love most is when the pirates approach this young man with the utmost reverence and offer the most precious thing they had with them as a tribute. Jack sparrow may be nuts a bit but he is no joke...
Vicente8831 no.. no.. this is not CGI, this is pure from his performance.. there's an interview that the crew of the movie try not to use CGI for young Sparrow
When Depp's time comes, he knows *exactly* who will take his place. Anthony is perfect! If he nailed it in that whole sequence, he'll nail it in any other potc film, of that i'm certain.
The tribute jacks crew gives him is heartwarming one man gave him the hat ontop of his head for all we know they have very little and thats probably all they own its heartwarming
@Nobody actually he did in the third movie where they flip the ship in order to return to real world.. That scene also showcasing how smart Jack is.. A little moment but acceptable..
His backstory/history you mean. But he did lie about his father’s death. The director of this film actually confirmed the novelization backstory is the true one. Salazar killed his father because he was accepting bribes frompirates.
This segment was the only one from this movie that seemed to accurately portray the Captain Jack Sparrow we know. He is the one pulling the ropes, not getting pulled by them. He wins the skirmish without shooting a single cannon.
Ok seriously they did a good job making him look like Johnny Depp I honestly had to look it up to see if his son played young Jack or not which he didn't. I loved this scene :)
When peeps say he "betrays" the compass in earlier movies, I wasn't sure so I went back and watched. He loses the compass a couple of times, but the only time he actively hands it off to someone is with Will Turner and Elizabeth to point the way to find Davy Jones' heart, and then with Beckett. All of which he was doing with full intent of getting the compass back, which he did. Whether or not he meant to get the compass back with the rum, he traded it FOR the rum it was pointing to, which seems more of a betrayal than just handing it off to someone to borrow or having it taken from him by someone else. The real sin here is the possible continuity error of Jack getting the compass from the captain of the Wicked Wench (which funfact eventually becomes the Black Pearl) instead of the bit in POTC 2 where Tia Dalma implies that he bartered it from her.
Maybe Tia Dalma gave it to the dying man on that ship originally and then when she first met Jack she recognised the compass, asked a few questions and answered a bunch in her own riddle talk and she and Jack went their separate ways all square and understanding
@@ljevans3156 I don't think he's met Tia at this point yet. So if I'm correct, it means he either loses it or has it stolen from him and she winds up with it at some point. There's probably a side story that explains it. My issue with it is that basically the same thing happens to the Wicked Wench where he loses it, then runs into someone that is willing to give it to him. I do think Tia Dalma, being a goddess, is able to bypass the betrayal aspect of the compass...which is a very good thing as I do not want to see what it would release if betrayed by a godess. Yikes.
It was elizabeth who told him: even I have a light to guide me... why does YOUR compass not work. What was Jack's purpose? Was it selfish, or did he want to follow an inner light. Do not firget Disney always has a spiritual message, the victory of the good soul.
I’m confident that our writers just forgot he got it from tia dalma and wanted to throw as much objects of value into the scene as possible and say it was his origin for the feels
