Line #9 Trivia/PiratesOfTheCaribbeanAtWorldsEnd


1	* ActingForTwo: Creator/JohnnyDepp plays Jack Sparrow as well as his hallucinations in Davy Jones' Locker.
2	* AwesomeDearBoy: Creator/ChowYunFat had this reaction to his role as Sao Feng. He frequently worked with the crew on set to get into character as a ship's captain.
3	* BannedInChina: Sao Feng was cut from the Chinese version of the film for being a [[YellowPeril negative portrayal of the Chinese]] (even though the main villains are mostly British.)
4	* BeamMeUpScotty: The crew of the ''FlyingDutchman'''s MadnessMantra is "Part of the crew, part of the ship". It is often however misremembered in the opposite order as "Part of the ship, part of the crew."
5	* BillingDisplacement: Sao Feng appears far less than the advertising would indicate. While he plays a significant role, [[spoiler: he's killed off halfway through the film, leaving Elizabeth to take his place at the pirate council]].
6	* CreatorBacklash: Creator/KeiraKnightley claimed that she's never seen the film and has no plans to do so.
7	* DeletedScene:
8	** One lengthy sequence showing Governor Swann learning about Davy Jones' heart. Swann would’ve attempted to stab Jones’s heart after one taunt too many, and Jones would gleefully explain the cost of doing so, and convincing Swann to stand down. This scene appeared in the novelization, and most of it was completed bar most of the effects on Jones, suggesting it was cut rather late in development.
9	** An extended conversation between Jack and Beckett, where it would be revealed that Beckett had contracted Jack to ferry some cargo--which turned out to be slaves. When Jack freed them, Beckett responded by branding him and sinking the ''Black Pearl''. This explains why Jack had to raise the ''Pearl'' from the depths in the first place.
10	* FakeNationality: Mistress Ching, who is Chinese, is portrayed by Takayo Fischer, who is of Japanese descent.
11	* IWantYouToMeetAnOldFriendOfMine: Ghassan Massoud, who appears as one of the pirates at the Council meeting, previously starred in ''Film/KingdomOfHeaven'' alongside Creator/OrlandoBloom.
12	* TheOtherDarrin: Hadras was portrayed by Reggie Lee in the previous film. In this film, Lee instead plays Tai Huang, while Hadras is now played by Ho-Kwan Tse, who had previously portrayed a crew member with [[TheDanza the same name]] in the previous film.
13	* PopCultureUrbanLegends: The supposed deleted scenes that explain that [[spoiler: once Will Turner stays as the Flying Dutchman's captain for 10 years he's freeded from duty]]. There's many claims and rumors around such scenes existing but there's no official information around them. Futhermore, neither the original script nor the novelization makes mention of this, much less do they appear among the deleted scenes included as BonusMaterial in the DVD or Blu-ray, so is very unlikely they are real.
14	* ShrugOfGod: The creators flip-flopped regarding [[spoiler: Will Turner's final fate. The ending left it vague whether, after serving his 10 years replacing Davy Jones, Will was freed from the curse or not. The fifth film, ''Dead Man Tells No Tales'' has Will still as the {{Psychopomp}}, and his son now teenaged.]]
15	* ThrowItIn: On the DVDCommentary for the second film, Creator/JohnnyDepp joked that Barbossa's first name was Hector. Filmmakers had not planned to give him a first name, but fans took it as canon so they made it so in this - making it AscendedFanon too.
16	* TroubledProduction: Between a variety of production and release-related factors, post-production on the third film came down to the wire. There were only 10 weeks to post the film (for context, a movie of this scale can spend up to a year in post-production).
17	* TorchTheFranchiseAndRun: Director Gore Verbinski was getting so fatigued by the ever-expanding scope of the trilogy's subplots that he eventually [[https://collider.com/gore-verbinski-interview-pirates-of-the-caribbean-2-pirates-3-production/ intended for this movie to resolve all the characters' stories so conclusively that there would not be another movie.]] Two more movies happened anyway, but Verbinski refused to do the fifth one because he believed it existed solely to make money.
18	-->''I think, trying to wrap up that many fractal narratives and give everybody a conclusion, Norrington's going to have to have his due, etc.. the thing just grows. That's what they do. They just go, ‘Well, the audiences love this guy, got to pay that guy off, and these guys have to return, and those guys have to show.’ Then you just start going, ‘Oh my God, I can't sustain this, I need to blow it up. I need to go blow it all up. To really end it. ’ So, I tried to make the third one saying, ‘There shouldn't be any more.’… I was like, okay, no more, done, three and out.''
19	* WhatCouldHaveBeen:
20	** The film originally ran three hours, but twenty minutes were cut. WordOfGod is that the extra footage served as better build-up for the final battle.
21	** Norrington had a somewhat larger role in earlier drafts of the script, where he and Davy Jones formed an odd sort of friendship due to their mutual dislike of working for Beckett, which explains why Jones offers Norrington a place in his crew in the movie.
22	** The novelisation has a few differences from the finished film. Namely Bootstrap Bill doesn't appear at all, and [[spoiler: Governor Swan and James Norrington]] don't die. There's also no mention of the multiple Jacks trying to run the Pearl in Davy Jones' Locker.
23	* WritingByTheSeatOfYourPants: Filming started without a finished script.
24	* YouLookFamiliar: Reggie Lee plays one of Sao Feng's crew. He had previously played one of Davy Jones' crew in the second film.
