#this entire scene is a fucking masterpiece  #the building tension in Barbossa’s cabin  #the strings in the score rising ominously  #and then the entire movie turns on a /dime/  #‘oh okay’  #I remember thinking  #‘fucking GHOST PIRATES’  #it drops from historical swashbuckler to fantasy swashbuckler in one set piece  #in which the rules for how the crew work are given to you purely in visuals  #and you get to see that sharp difference between horror-horror and fun horror  #because this scene genuinely terrifies Elizabeth  #and delights /you/  #instead of being awful for both of you  #god it’s just so neatly done and raises the stakes for the film and puts everything into context and adds depth to the characters  #and comes as a complete surprise  #this is all the things you want in a set piece  #we should all aspire to storytelling so economical  #(incidentally so should THE SEQUELS  #christ)  (via wizzard890)
