No, we are never going to stop talking about this movie

[cleolinda]

A few things you may (or may not) have noticed, including the after-credit scenes. Trailer caps are from cap_it; larger pictures are mostly from OutNow:

>> Two screencaps from the scene after the credits in the first movie, if you didn't see that. It will explain some logistics in the second. Note: the caps are in reverse order on this entry--effect and cause, not cause and effect.

>> Lo-res video of the scene after the credits in the second movie.

>> Check out the chicken foot hanging from Tia Dalma's neck. Yeah, I'm pretty sure she does the voodoo.

>> Is this Barbossa's hat? Although, I think the very top of his was sliced off near the end of the first movie (shut up, I was watching commentaries last week!). But Jack spends a good amount of time examining it (I have three frames from the trailer alone).

>> The puzzle of Jack's stolen future plot point ring: people noticed that Jack steals a ring at some point in the Tia Dalma scene. (I missed this; I thought he stole the heart necklace.) Therefore, he is not wearing it before that scene, and he must be wearing it after that scene. But which ring is it?

• Jack on the Black Pearl, early in the movie.


• After escaping the Pelegosto cannibals.


• In the boat going to Tia Dalma's.


• Tia Dalma has thrown the crab claws, which is near the end of the scene, and therefore he must have the ring by now.


• Jack's rings on Tortuga.


• Back on the Black Pearl.


• On the island of Las Cruces (I think was the name?).


• Shooting the kraken.


• Jack's last moments. Yes, this actually appeared in the trailer, minus the actual kraken CGI.

Okay, you tell me: which ring did he take from Tia Dalma?

ETA: We seem to have a consensus: it's the plain gold ring with the dark stone in the middle. The stone itself seems to be a vivid purple (see the Las Cruces pictures). That said, I seriously want the big green twisty ring on his thumb.

The ring that turns him invisible and pisses off the Nazgul?

I think it was the flat black one on his left pointer finger that he copped at Tia Dalma's.

He stole both the pendant and the ring. I thought it had a red stone, but I could be mistaken.

[hawleygriffen.livejournal.com]

I'm almost sure it's the middle one, the dark stone in gold, from the tortuga pic. I have a vague visual memory of him stealing that one but I could be wrong.

[crucioveritas.livejournal.com]

He took a green stoned ring from Tia's.

It's the enormous gold ring with the huge stone on his index finger in this picture (http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v118/cleoicons/pirates/tortugarings2.jpg) and this picture (http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v118/cleoicons/pirates/kissrings.jpg). I'm totally expecting the ring to be huge (though I don't remember him taking the necklace, which I think she'd have noticed) in the next ring. Also, Chinese pirates, or so I hope!

The gold one I believe

[jenisnape.livejournal.com]

i think so too.

I have no idea about the ring. I thought, however, that you would enjoy seeing this review: http://www.askaninja.com/node/1175

I'm fairly certain it's the big plain black one here: http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v118/cleoicons/pirates/tortugarings2.jpg

It stuck out in my mind, and I definitely remember seeing it throughout the movie. I also remember wondering why he didn't take his rings off while trying to escape the shackle, because in my dealings with wearing bracelets that are too small I've found that removing your rings always helps it slide off better.

[cleolinda.livejournal.com]

I have to say, I don't see that one in any of the pre-Dalma pictures, so you may be right. And of course, I now "remember" seeing him take that one (ah, the power of suggestion).

I seriously love the big green twisty one on his thumb, though.

[meghatron.livejournal.com]

No, the pendant is still on the table after he steals the ring.

[gryphonmage.livejournal.com]

I too thought it was a silver ring with a red stone.

[fiveforsilver]

Really? I thought I saw him put it in his pocket or sash or something.

[meghatron.livejournal.com]

As his escape attempt progresses, in the closeups of his hand you can see the rings partially removed, near the ends of his fingers.

On weekends, it also understudies as a horcrux.

Wow, the detail, and wow, the bling. Jack, I envy you so much.

[cleolinda.livejournal.com]

I seriously believe everyone is going to be wearing multiple giant rings in the coming months. Seriously, look for it on the runway.

[redcoast.livejournal.com]

People are already wearing buccaneer pants and cowboy stuff from Brokeback. I afraid we'll see stars wearing those spiffy coats, a cravat, and a cowboy hat.

I know he examined it, at least, to give us eagle-eyes a good shot at noticing it. Didn't see what he did with it ...

[padparadscha.livejournal.com]

I thought it was the big dark stone. That it's deep purple is interesting; I kept thinking of it as being, well, a black pearl. (Yes, I know it's not very pearly; I was being figurative.) But that was kind of in my subconscious, and I only realized that's how I was thinking of it after I saw it was purple in some pictures.

I am specifically NOT reading the above entry as I haven't been to the movies yet; I am, however, linking you to this entry right here (http://here-be-dragons.livejournal.com/362302.html?view=3164990#t3164990), which I think you will find deeply satisfying, even if utterly pirate-free. YAY! (She's on my f-list and is a TOTAL doll.)
