Collecting Captains

Here, you'll find where I collect all things POTC, including everyones favorite co-Captains. Sparbossa is life, and if you don't like it, you can shove off. You might even find a certain Commodore among the mix.

Man, sometimes I look back at the PotC fandom in 2006 and like

They really spent Dead Man's Chest making Jack make every selfish, deplorable decision he possibly could with an asterisk at the end, literally getting two crews killed under his command and agreeing to (at least temporarily) sell off other people's souls in exchange for his, and just because of that asterisk that maaaaaybe he didn't mean it to be permanent, instead of debating the complexity of his character, or the nuance of Elizabeth's decisions, a large chunk of the fandom uhhh (checks notes) decided Elizabeth was irredeemably evil for killing him.

So it's straight up like "Nature is healing" to see so many fans on tumblr just straight up cheering her killing him on, especially without being interpreted as "hating" his character lmao

i still think that the “are we to be two immortals locked in an epic battle until judgement day and trumpet sound?” is like the quintessential sparbossa line and i can’t stop thinking about it since my latest rewatch. this has been said before but it bears repeating because holy shit it would have been less gay if they fucked on screen. “ohh do you hate me?? do you want to fight me? fight me FOREVER?? fight me forever? forever and ever and ever? for all eternity??” i can’t with them

Shot in the heart

My heart is in pain,

It feels insane

I want to go back in time,

When I never knew your name

(Rediscovered my childhood crush after watching potc again, so enjoy my labour of love💖

I have prints of this, if anyone's interested, btw)

They’re not gonna do it because they’re cowards and they suck but the funniest possible way Disney could reboot pirates of the caribbean whilst still avoiding the controversy that would happen if they rehired Johnny Depp would be to do a prequel (as they love to do) and cast some actor as Young Jack Sparrow and then make him and Barbossa canon for the Diversity Points, retroactively making it canon that all of their previous behavior towards one another was because they’re exes and they made their messy divorce and resulting custody battle over their Sick Ride everyone’s problem

PIRATES OF THE CARIBBEAN: THE CURSE OF THE BLACK PEARL

[redfish-blu]

We get it kind of vaguely confirmed that the Black Pearl is like soul magic tied to Jack Sparrow (it literally went to the Locker with him + Davey Jones mentions it almost every time he’s fiending for Jack’s soul), which lends immeasurable humor to Barbossa insisting that it is in fact his ship, not Jack’s. As if every time he actually achieved captaincy of it something didn’t go horribly wrong.

All I’m saying is if I got lifelong traumatized by the same boat (twice) after stealing it from the dude who brought it back from purgatory (twice) by sacrificing his own soul to the Sea Grim Reaper (twice)… Well first I’d hire a medium and get exercised, and second I would not touch that ship with a fifty foot pole because clearly there’s some preternatural fuckery going on that does not want me to be involved.

Barbossa and Jack Sparrow are soooooooooooo divorced. I motion for one more movie just so they can rebound fuck sloppy and yes I am aware Barbossa died in the last one. They should go rescue him from Davy Jones' slutty, slutty locker for the rawdogging of it all.
