I started a fan-fic a long time back where everyone tells young Jack "You look like your dad." and I plan to have his father show up and take a considerable part in the proceedings. Of course I knew that Keith was cast, and that would be the joke, but now... I know the man's name. And that he wears a LOT of lace at his wrists.
You know, from TnT's comments, and from script spoilers, I get the impression that Teague might not be identified as Jack's dad in the movie. Which would be good, in one way -- I rather like mysterious movie!Jack, and we all have our own Jack backstories in fanfiction -- and disappointing in another, as that's what we've been expecting.
Hello! Captain Tish here. Thanks for posting all these pics. I always come here to check if you've put up anything new. (I don't always post -- it's a bit of a hassle because I'm "anonymous" so I have to identify myself as not being a spam robot -- I really should get an LJ account, make things a lot simpler!)
On one hand, I think if they don't identify Teague as Jack's dad that might be kinda cool, because it would be implied but never confirmed, so we could think whatever we want.
Speaking of the trailer, WHERE IS IT? Does anybody else think it's weird that it's less than three months till the movie, and there is NO advertising going on? No teaser posters even?
Hope everything is well with you. I haven't lost interest in PotC but I have become rather wrapped up in Lost, Firefly, and -- somewhat inexplicably -- House. (I'm not into medical dramas but Hugh Laurie rocks)
You really should get an LJ account. It's free, after all, and it's the place to be in the PotC fandom, if you want to run across intelligent discussion and good fanfic.
The trailer is coming out on the 19th, during "Dancing with the Stars", although I expect it'll be all over the internet immediately after that.
Lots of my fellow pirate fans have been lured over to Lost, Firefly, etc. I haven't, but it's probably just lack of time -- PotC alone keeps me plenty busy. And I expect after AWE comes out there will be lots more going on, at least for a while -- all us fanfic writers are sort of on hold in a sense, until we see where canon goes.
Very good hearing from you! I hope you're having a nice Sunday evening. :)
