The parachute scene is gorgeous. Plain and simple.

Anyone have a screenshot?

Oh, and I just wanted to say, (this is totally O/T) but I got my first tattoo yesterday, and I'm really happy with it. It's just a simple dragonfly (inspired by my favorite song by Garbage) on the nape of my neck.

Very cool.
I'm too much of a wimp about pain to get a tattoo (it took me 3 tries to get my ears pierced...I kept chickening out.

). My sister-in-law has one in that same place...a tiny shamrock.

I don't have it, but there is a really pretty piece of artwork in our opening post that is based on it.

I have a shot of it. Gimme a few minutes

OKay, these are from right after the film came out so they're not the best quality. I'm sure there are DVD caps now

Both of them have duties to the brethren, and given Lizzie's inability to keep it in her pants (let's face it she was without Will for like two weeks, he could have been in danger on board the Dutchman, and she was lusting after Jack. That just SCREAMS love to me), she'd be wanting to tap that. Somehow, I don't think Jack would be pushing her away again either.

Awesome way of looking at it

And so true

Super cool. I myself have a tattoo I aquired on my very intoxicated 20th bday

Oh thank you for the screencaps!

They always brighten my day. The parachute scene was the best part of the movie imo

tanith75 · 04-06-2008, 03:16 PM

I think it was too

That and Keith Richards

He was awesome!!!

Buttermilk_Moon · 04-06-2008, 03:17 PM

Haha, yeah he was

And speaking of the parachute scene.. I just found this on Deviant art:

Buttermilk_Moon · 04-06-2008, 03:51 PM

I love Jack's expression in that drawing..

Analise's Pieces · 04-06-2008, 05:48 PM

Wow that is gorgeous! Holy cow. Our ship rules.

victoriafrances · 04-06-2008, 06:10 PM

It certainly does.

Buttermilk_Moon · 04-06-2008, 10:40 PM

Elizabeth/Jack/Rum = OT3

Analise's Pieces · 04-07-2008, 01:52 AM

Mhmm.

We could also say that Johnny/No Shirt/Whipped Cream is our other OT3.

Ask and ye shall receive...

Why were the writers so clueless? Nit including this site, I don't know one actual person who was rooting for Elizabeth and Will to get together, but I knew several people who wanted Jack and Elizabeth to end up together. It all came down to the fact that W/E just was not an engaging couple. Most people could have cared less if they ended up together. People watched the movie for Capt. Jack not for the Will/Elizabeth relationship...because it wasn't interesting. That's what Jack/Elizabeth had over W/E, it was interesting and invloving. It wasn't a yawn-fest like another couple was.
