1. no, it doesn’t bother me. Jack is a “loveable rouge,” which is basically a euphemistic way of saying that he’s a charismatic sociopath who shamelessly takes advantage of people whenever he can. He richly _deserves_ every ounce of shit that get smeared in his face 😉 ---

ETA: Regarding the fourth movie, I’m actually curious to know if anybody on the Black Pearl except for the monkey is still alive, or if they all starved to death during the time the ship was trapped in the bottle. If they ever make a fifth movie, I really hope the monkey gets thrown into a volcano as a sacrifice to a Polynesian god, or something like that. I really hate that damn thing. ---

If they ever make a fifth movie, I really hope the monkey gets thrown into a volcano as a sacrifice to a Polynesian god, or something like that. I really hate that damn thing. Heh. I hate it, but kind of like it for being so hateful. It makes an excellent Nemesis. The main risk is for them to over-use it. So, tone it down a little, yes, but don’t eliminate it entirely. (Same advice I would have given for Jar Jar Binks. Tone him way the hell down…but, yes, keep him.) ---

Or at least, go to sea on her own ship, where she can meet up with Will whenever they like. She is, after all, the Pirate Queen in her own right. ---
