Mistakes
Being chased by the Pearl, the Interceptor lowers the anchor and it catches a rock. After a few shots on deck the next shot below deck, is of the table with the medallion on it. As the table starts to tip we see the medallion and chain. In the next close-up shot, the chain is lying on the table differently. The chain didn't start to slide between shots, only after the second shot. See more...
Trivia
When Barbossa and Jack are skeletons in the moonlight, their eyeballs were really theirs. It was the only part of their bodies which was not CGI-animated. Audio commentaries. See more...
Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl (2003) - 16 quotes
Directed by Gore Verbinski, starring Jack Davenport, Johnny Depp, Keira Knightley, Mackenzie Crook, Geoffrey Rush, Orlando Bloom, Jonathan Pryce (add more)
Genres: Action, Adventure, Comedy, Fantasy
Please note: The sliding down the rope scene is perfectly possible - the link between Johnny Depp's handcuffs is long enough that he can fold it in half and sling the loop over the rope. Also Will's father - yes, he was still alive, stuck under the sea for 10 years attached to a cannon (or crushed to pieces - they comment on "the crushing black depths"). Not a mistake though. Most importantly, JACK ISN'T CURSED FOR THE WHOLE FILM. He's only cursed when he takes a medallion out of the chest right at the end.
Will Turner: This is either madness, or brilliance.
Jack Sparrow: It's funny how often those traits coincide.
Governor Swann: So...this is the path you've chosen, is it? After all, he is a blacksmith.
Elizabeth Swan: No; he's a pirate.
Mr. Gibbs: It's bad luck to wake a man when he's sleeping.
Jack Sparrow: Ah, but fortunately I know how to counter it: The man who did the waking buys the man who was sleeping a drink; and then the man who was sleeping drinks it while listening to a proposition from the man who did the waking.
Mr. Gibbs: Aye...that'll about do it. [He gets up and Will dumps another bucket of water over his head.] BLAST! I'm already awake!!
Will: THAT was for the smell.
Jack Sparrow: Wherever we want to go, we go. That's what a ship is, you know. It's not just a keel and a hull and sails; that's what a ship needs. Not what a ship is. What the Black Pearl really is, is freedom.
Jack Sparrow: Me I'm dishonest, and a dishonest man you can always trust to be dishonest. Honestly it's the honest ones you have to watch out for, you never can predict if they're going to do something incredibly stupid.
Elizabeth Swann: Mr Sparrow, the entire British navy is looking for me, this signal is over a thousand feet high, do you really think there is no chance they will see it?
[Jack makes some threatening moves towards Elizabeth, then storms off up the beach. Walking backwards looking at her, he then turns around to see a huge ship moored, with a row boat coming to rescue them. He turns back to look at Elizabeth Swann.]
Jack Sparrow: There'll be no living with her after this!
Jack Sparrow: One question about your business, boy, or there's no use going: This girl... how far are you willing to go to save her?
Will Turner: I'd die for her.
Jack Sparrow: Oh good. No worries then.
Barbossa: You best start believing in ghost stories, Miss Turner. You're in one!
Jack Sparrow: Now you can either accept that your father was a pirate and a good man, or me I could just leave you there to drown. Your choice.
Jack Sparrow: I'll tell ya mate, if every town in the world were like this one, no man would ever feel unwanted. [Sees woman.] Scarlett!
[Scarlett slaps Jack's face and walks away.]
Jack Sparrow: Not sure I deserved that. [Another woman walks over.] Giselle!
Giselle: Who was she?
Jack Sparrow: What?
[Giselle slaps Jack's face and walks away.]
Jack Sparrow: I may have deserved that.
[Later in the film, Jack removes someone's hat to reveal a woman underneath.]
Jack Sparrow: Anamaria!
[Anamaria slaps Jack's face.]
Will Turner: I suppose you didn't deserve that one either.
Jack Sparrow: No. That one I deserved.
[Barbossa is about to kill Will, but Jack shows up.]
Barbossa: It's not possible!
Jack Sparrow: Not probable.
Will Turner: Where's Elizabeth?
Jack Sparrow: She's safe, just like I promised. She's all set to marry Norrington, just like she promised. And you get to die for her, just like you promised. So we're all men of our word, really. Except for Elizabeth, who is in fact, a woman.
Elizabeth Swann: But you were marooned on this island before, weren't you? So we can escape in the same way you did then.
Jack Sparrow: To what point and purpose, young missy? The Black Pearl is gone. Unless you have a rudder and a lot of sails [eying Elizabeth's chest] hidden in that bodice. Unlikely! Young Mr. Turner will be dead long before you can reach him.
Will Turner: He roped a couple of sea turtles? What did he use for rope?
Jack Sparrow: Human hair. From my back.
Elizabeth Swann: You like pain? Try wearing a corset.
Jack Sparrow: But why is the rum gone?
Elizabeth Swann: That's it, then? That's the secret grand adventure of the infamous Jack Sparrow - you spent three days lying on a beach drinking rum?
Jack Sparrow: Welcome to the Caribbean, love.
