I have read ALL the spoilers--including the summary of the entire junior novel. So a great many of the speculations here seem fun because they are so far off. I won't spoil it for anyone else. But don't forget there's a whole Bootstrap Bill angle that isn't showing up in the trailer.
One comment by Johnny Depp that people keep forgetting is the aspect of Pepe LePew in the Jack Sparrow character. Johnny talks about how Pepe always felt he was irresistible to the female characters and never ever clued to their real feelings. I think we have to give the man's own interpretation of his character credit. Jack is not going to pass up making passes at any female that crosses his path, including Elizabeth. He did so in the first movie and he is obviously doing so in the second if you've seen the new trailer. Johnny said he loved how Jack really believed he was about to get lucky on that island. If Johnny is happy with that interpretation of his character, I'm not complaining that he keeps it up in PotC2.
As for Jack and Will's relationship in the second movie, the Entertainment Tonight clip made it clear that things get very tense between them, but over something entirely different than Elizabeth. There's an exchange between Norrington and Will who both have Jack at swordspoint that is highly illuminating. Let me know if you want to hear it.
