Reading comments from Elizabeth (POTC) fans on public forums complaining that it seems like the character is being slighted by reviewers of the new movie, in favor of the Penelope Cruz character, Angelica. (Even Geoffrey Rush made some comment about Jack Sparrow finally having a female match in this movie or some such; I don't remember his exact quote.)


Take a page from the Will fans, who've gotten used to bashing of our favorite character by reviewers and other fans for eight years: Get over it and enjoy what you like. It's not personal! It's just their preference! Why should you care? :-)

The tide has turned, eh? ;-)

Last week's EW flatly stated that the Will and Elizabeth story had come to a tidy conclusion with the end of the (first?) trilogy. (So much for "their story has yet to be told" or whatever it was.) And Johnny Depp himself was very critical of the excessive plotiness that made up DMC and AWE. *shrugs*

What he (or EW, I don't remember) had to say concerning Not!Will and his fishy friend makes me think OST is intended to be a 'JACK SPARROW And His Proper Girlfriend' vehicle. No overly complicated (or even at all interesting) side romances will be going on. That could just be Johnny Depp's slant on it. We'll see.

And I do have a free ticket, so I will be seeing it at the theater. At least the once. :-p

Oh hell, it would be disingenuous for me to pretend I'm anything other than happy they're finally getting their comeuppance and being made to feel like losers for what they like. *G* It's the ones who want to bring Will into it and pretend they're concerned both characters are being bashed. Bitch, please.

It'll be interesting to see! ;-)
