In Curse of the Black Pearl, Jack took a piece of the gold and he was put under the curse like the other pirates, right? So why weren't Will and Elizabeth ever under the curse?

Am I missing something here?

Because they never took anything out of the chest. It was only Jack who did.

i expect we'll get some kind of explanation...maybe the voodoo chick revived him

or maybe since he was the one who first went after the treasure, the curse is stronger or came back

Yeah, it was probably Tia Dalma.

yeah maybe she kept him or found him 'At worlds end' which im guessing is like a purgatory in the pirate world or something

or maybe he crawled over to the chest and took a piece of gold out, therefore cursing him again, but letting him live

that could logically be true when you think about it, but I think I remember the voodoo chick saying she went to worlds end to find him, or someone did, I dont know though, I havent seen the movie for a long time

If you're human, a bullet through the lungs kill you, unless you get professional medical attention. And I don't think there were many doctors in that cave.

He was too good of a character to keep dead.

I would assume that, since they're going to World's End to rescue Jack, who has been successfully eaten, that he came back from the same place. Dunno who would've gone to rescue him, though.

I guessing he is alive because the people who made the film needed a surprise ending. They don't really care whether or not it makes sense or not. "Tia Dalma did it!" is a cop out answer.

The final words in Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest:

Tia Dalma: "If you go and brave the weird and haunted shores at world's end, then you will need a captain who knows those waters."
Barbossa: "So, tell me, what's become of my ship?"

This implies to me that Barbossa had already been at the world's end, and someone (Tia Dalma?) had brought him back.

One thing I didn't get is how was the monkey able to be shot several times in Dead Man's Chest and not die?

That implies that the curse is still active (because the monkey is still a zombie dealie), and yet Jack and the rest of the Black Pearl pirates are human again. Hm?

yeah, I wondered that myself, which could further prove that maybe Barbosa had a coin, maybe somehow him and the monkey had to have coins, but I don't how the monkey could have gotten one, wasn't he already on the ship when barbosa was shot?

If you stay until after the credits in the first Pirates movie, you'll be treated to a little 1-2 minute video of Jack the Monkey swimming up out of the water and stealing a coin out of the box. He has the curse and since he was the only one present at the time of the theft, he was the only one cursed by it.

yeah I never saw that, it explains the monkey, and I'm sure barbosa is from worlds end then, but we'll have to wait for the 3rd movie

whens the official date for the 3rd

may 25th or 23rd, not sure which. i've seen both.
But it clearly has something to do with this "World's End" place. Oh well, I can't wait for the third one.

He isn't under the curse that's for sure. he ate the apple and when cursed you can't eat.

Ouch!

They can eat, but it doesn't satisfy hunger.

I always assumed the World's End was some kind of pirate graveyard. The trailers for the third movie show the ocean dropping off on a giant waterfall into nothingness. I suppose that would be the World's End.

"The food turns to ash on our tongues" Or something like that. No he was just resurrected no longer under the curse. Because when he was under he couldn't eat at all and didn't even try anymore.

I always assumed the food turns to ashes thing was a metaphor.

Regardless, it's no problem eating ash. :)
