kennahijja | PotC 3, with Spoilers

All right, I went to see Pirates of the Carribean 3 last night with

hummelchen, and it was great fun and nearly made me forget I had a headache most of the time. Enjoyable, exciting, if the weakest of the three, and hopefully the last!

We fought over coffee on the relative merits of the first part (

hummelchen's favourite, and the second (mine), and discussed a lot of RL things so that I walked out in a way better mood (and a little less scared) than before.

That said, I do have a serious question about the ending!ending of this...

Well, the *final* ending after the credits... did I interpret this right, that the boy who was hanged (and singing beforehand) at the beginning was indeed Will's and Elizabeth's son from the end? Because that'd be very cool in a highly tragical way - and a way better ending than the 'leaving open the possibility of a sequel' that was the 'real' end? Or am I applying my trademarked 'jumping to conclusions and then clinging to them' interpretation style?

The ending thing aside, I thought that the entire film would have benefitted from being shorter (the Calypso-plotline in particular seemed *very* superfluous, and contained the only moment in a film of otherwise stunning visuals where CGI really *really* sucked too much for words).

But that aside, it was definitely fun, if not the best thing since sliced bread :).
