Chapter 417: Foreshadowing One, Two, Three, Four...

Although gold, silver and treasures are attractive, the pirates are not interested in these treasures now. They just want to regain the feeling of being human.

At this time, the pirates had collected 881 gold coins, except for Elizabeth's.

On the Interceptor, Gibbs told Will Turner the story of Captain Jack Sparrow and told Will Turner that his father Bill Turner was Captain Jack Sparrow's other first mate.

As a result, Bill Turner was executed for supporting Captain Jack.

Barbossa exiled Captain Jack to a deserted island and gave him a gun with only one bullet, asking him to commit suicide. But unexpectedly, Jack escaped and now embarked on a journey to take back the Black Pearl.

The audience then understood that there was such a connection.

On the other side, the pirates gathered all the gold coins and planned to use Elizabeth's blood for a blood sacrifice. Elizabeth was terrified and wanted to escape but couldn't.

Just when she was worried that she would be beheaded by the pirates, Barbossa suddenly took out a small dagger, cut her palm, and then poured the blood on the gold coins.

Elizabeth was full of questions: "That's it?"

Let alone Elizabeth, the audience in the theater was stunned. Is this what the so-called blood sacrifice is like? They thought it would be bloody and Elizabeth would be cut into pieces!

But you know what, this anti-routine scene was so unexpected that it made the audience like the movie more.

Overall, this is a fairly light-hearted and humorous pirate adventure story. Although the process is a bit thrilling and terrifying, the story is quite interesting.

Elizabeth's blood didn't work, and Barbossa realized that he had been fooled. The pirates under him were determined not to do it anymore and planned to kill Barbossa.

At this moment Will Turner and Captain Jack sneaked in. Will Turner rescued Elizabeth, while Captain Jack was caught again and imprisoned in the cabin of the Black Pearl.

Barbossa then led the Black Pearl to pursue the Interceptor, and an unprecedented sea pursuit began.

There was no ammunition on the Interceptor, so they had to use whatever they had. Pots, pans, and utensils all served as shells, and they had a cannon battle with the Black Pearl.

It's no wonder that Elizabeth is the daughter of the Governor, she has a natural talent for command. Under her command, she did not lose the battle against the Black Pearl.

"It's so refreshing and exciting. This scene is really interesting and I like watching it," said Noel.

"I feel that this battle is comparable to the Battle of Jutland," Hutchinson agreed.

Although it was only a battle between two ships, it was a blood-boiling naval battle, worthy of Gilbert Jr. This is probably the best naval battle scene in the 16th and 17th centuries in history, and no movie can surpass it.

Eventually, due to lack of ammunition, the crew of the Interceptor were captured alive and the Interceptor was sunk.

Barbossa took Will Turner away and exiled Captain Jack and Elizabeth to a deserted island, leaving them to fend for themselves.

However, if Captain Jack could escape the first time, he could escape the second time, and this time he relied on Elizabeth.

Elizabeth lit a bonfire to ask for help, but Captain Jack scoffed and thought of a way himself. When he looked out to sea, he found a Royal Navy ship parked on the water.

"I will never deal with this girl again!" Captain Jack's complaint made the audience in the theater smile knowingly.

It was Norrington who came to rescue Elizabeth. After the two got on the boat, Captain Jack was pointed at by a gun that could never hit him, and he dared not move.

Elizabeth begged Norrington to save Will Turner, but of course Norrington was unwilling.

Elizabeth promised to marry Will Turner once he was rescued, and Norrington agreed.

The final battle was about to begin. When they arrived at the cave entrance, Captain Jack said that he would lure the pirates out so that Norrington and the soldiers could wait for the opportunity.

But Norrington was smart this time. He agreed to Captain Jack's request on the surface, but actually secretly sent soldiers to ambush on both sides of the cave entrance.

The last big show did not disappoint the audience. When Captain Jack met Barbossa, he started to fool Barbossa with his words and asked him to send people to attack the British ships and soldiers parked in front of the cave entrance.

Because he still needs to use his immortal body, he cannot sacrifice Will Turner for the time being.

As he said this, Captain Jack quietly touched an Aztec gold coin and was cursed, becoming immortal.

And all of this was seen by Will Turner.

The battle begins, and using their immortality, the pirates transform themselves into underwater skeletons and walk under the water.

The soldiers ambushing at the cave entrance did not notice the skeleton pirates underwater at all. By the time they found out, the pirates had already crawled out from the bottom of the water and attacked the ship.

Norrington immediately led his soldiers back to provide support, only to discover that these pirates were impossible to kill and each of them was immortal.

Scarlett started her amazing rant again: "If I also had an immortal body, missile carriers wouldn't be able to do anything to me. How can the navy stop me from being a pirate?"

"But dear, the reality is that it is impossible for you to be immortal." Little Gilbert ruthlessly exposed Scarlett's fantasy.

Scarlett snorted, which was quite cute.

She bit little Gilbert's arm lightly, leaving a tooth mark.

After careful observation, Scarlett came to the conclusion that this was indeed not the world of Pirates of the Caribbean and she could not become an undead. She was so disappointed.

Not to mention her, when watching the pirates walking from the bottom of the water to the bottom of the Royal Navy ship, many imaginative viewers in the theater fantasized about using this feature to do things that they would not normally want to do.

For example, Noel just wants to beat up his boss with one punch, and always assigns him thankless tasks.

Hutchinson wanted to go to the bottom of the sea to catch fish, because he never caught any fish every time he went fishing. With immortality, he could go to the bottom of the sea to catch fish directly.

Taking advantage of the chaos, Elizabeth ran to the Black Pearl and released the Black Pearl's crew.

Captain Jack and Barbossa also started fighting, and the fancy fighting moves were very exciting to watch. But Captain Jack had no chance of winning, after all, Barbossa was immortal.

But unexpectedly, when Barbossa thrust the sword into Jack's chest, Jack did not die either. The moonlight from the exposed roof of the cave happened to shine down, and Jack's skeleton was revealed in the moonlight. Now it was Captain Barbossa's turn to be surprised, because Jack had done it too.

In the next scene, the audience, who had never seen such a scene before, watched with their mouths wide open and could not take their eyes away.

Captain Jack and Barbossa are seen shuttling in the moonlight, sometimes in the flesh and sometimes as skeletons. Both the long and close shots are flawless, and the fighting scenes between skeletons are lifelike.

This special effect was of course created by Industrial Light & Magic. At that time, Johnny Depp and Geoffrey Rush used motion capture technology to complete the filming of this scene.

Neither of them used a body double in this scene, and they performed all the action scenes themselves.

There was no point in fighting like this, so Will Turner used his own blood to lift the curse. The immortality ended, and the pirates outside the cave were immediately defeated by the soldiers.

Barbossa was also shot in the chest by Jack. The gun was the pistol with only one bullet that he gave to Jack.

But Barbossa was happy because he could finally feel something, even though he was dying.

"Didn't they say Barbossa wouldn't die?"

"Yeah, that's what the forum said."

"That's not true. Barbossa should be dead now that the curse of immortality has ended."

"What a shame. I quite like Barbossa."

In response to this, Geoffrey Rush, who was sitting in the creative seat, chuckled. He would not die so easily.

Then comes the end of the film. Although Jack has made meritorious contributions, he still has to be hanged.

At the critical moment, Will Turner jumped out to rescue Jack, and Norrington also let Jack go and let him return to the Black Pearl. Captain Jack continued to gallop on the ocean and continue his pirate career.

Will Turner also impressed the governor and successfully married Elizabeth, and the two kissed in the sunset.

This scene made Orlando Bloom's fans itch, and Keira Knightley's Elizabeth also attracted many fans. At this time, the fans who were attracted shouted in their hearts: Let me do it...

There is a little easter egg at the end of the film. Barbossa's monkey steals a gold coin and becomes immortal again, and then the film ends.

Seeing this last scene, one can’t help but wonder, is Barbossa not dead yet?

This is indeed a suspense left by the film to the audience, and it also seems to reveal that the film has plans for a sequel.

When the movie ended, the lights in the theater came on. This wonderful fantasy adventure pirate movie was loved by everyone, and everyone gave the movie their warm applause.

Little Gilbert took the main creators on stage to take their bows. The applause lasted for a long time until the crew took their bows for the third time.

In the subsequent interactive session, the audience asked many questions, such as what inspired Gilbert Jr. to create this story.

This question was asked by Noel. Little Gilbert certainly knew him, a loyal fan of "The Lord of the Rings" books and movies. He unexpectedly became a fan of "Pirates of the Caribbean" after attending the premiere.

When faced with this question, little Gilbert gave the same old answer, saying that he came up with the idea when he was playing on a pirate ship.

This answer made his Hollywood colleagues' eyes go blank. Little Gilbert could come up with such a wonderful story while riding on a pirate ship, but they themselves felt the centrifugal force while riding on a pirate ship. This was the difference.

Regarding the Easter egg at the end of the film, Gilbert Jr. explained: "In fact, the script outlines a trilogy. Of course, we have to see how the first movie performs at the box office before we decide whether there will be a sequel."

What this means is that you guys should give some effort and contribute more to the box office, otherwise there won’t be a sequel.

Of course the fans understood, and they promised to mobilize everyone around them to support the movie when they returned.

And everyone is not a die-hard fan. "Pirates of the Caribbean" does have the qualities of an excellent commercial film, and movie fans are not at a loss at all.

As for the question of whether Captain Barbossa was dead or not, Gilbert Jr. asked Geoffrey Rush to answer it.

"I have an immortal body!"

"But the curse is lifted!"

“Is it really lifted?”

This conversation contained a huge amount of information, and the audience began to rack their brains.

Then Gilbert Jr. left the opportunity for interaction to the actors, and talked and chatted with the guests who came to support the event.

Avril Lavigne watched the entire film nervously. Although it was not a horror film, Avril Lavigne still found it very scary.

But the rock girl would never admit that she was afraid, she would just think that there was something wrong with little Gilbert.

The first thing she said was: "The film is very well made, I like it very much, but I won't go to the cinema to watch it a second time."

Little Gilbert asked curiously, "Why?"

Before Avril Lavigne could speak, Emma Watson explained: "She was scared. She held my hand tightly when we were watching the movie just now."

Avril Lavigne glared back at Emma Watson and then blushed.

Emma Watson said: "Don't look at my young age, but I am brave, much better than someone else."

Looking at the two girls who were like fighting cocks, little Gilbert didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

Emma Watson is fine, but why Vivian is also like a little girl... It's puzzling.
