Is PotC really going to stop being PC?

[darthjohnny]

There is a rumor that when Pirates reopens, they are going to change it back to where the Pirates chased the women and stop being PC. But a pin that is coming out in July shows that that scene with a woman peering out the barrel is now swithced to Jack Sparrow

so since they a getting rid of the woman hiding in the barrel because her dress was stolen off of her, Pirates still might be PC. Any thoughts

I don't think thats them being PC as much as changing elements of the movie to fit in with the ride.

Jack is hiding from Barbossa's crew in the barrel. That change doesn't have anything to do with the girl that was in there, she's just an unfortunate casualty in the change to the new adjusted storyline of PoTC.

People go to WDW to get away from "the real world", so I doubt that we'll see the ride become non-PC, or become a real demonstration of pirate life. Can you imagine the looks on the faces of parents and kids if they made the ride true to life? Heck, I know the movie was a far cry reality, or at least a far cry from how these pirates (hard criminals stuck on a boat with nothing but men) acted.

This gives me a great idea for a house at HHN. :animwink: :animwink:

It's bad enough that I have to explain to my kids about alcoholism and public drunkeness, never mind the firing of guns at each other. Just imagine if I had to explain the degradation of women back then as well...:lookaroun

Well, they have to find out about it eventually. Better at a Disney park than experiencing it for real.

 

[a2grafix]

you mean this one? Not sure if it looks like Captain Jack, though. Does the pirate below look like Barbosa? Not sure.

 

[T-1MILLION]

Dang. Does not look like Barbossa to me, just the same old pirate playing the part of Barbosa's gang of pirates. Although I would put money on it that there is jack in the barrel. Sad to me that another classic scene had to change.

 

[coastermaster83]

looks like ol jacko in the barrel. But why couldnt of have been a JACK IN THE BOX

 

[Big-Bad-Dave]

That is all well and good, but where is the PARROT going to be?!?!?!?

On Ebay :lol:

 

[iheartdisney91]

ok first of all if they got rid of that girl in the barrel im going to be upset because she was the original thing! and i dont think she was naked because she had on a hat and it looked like the starting of her dress.(well in wdw) i hope they make it so the pirates are chasing the girls. that is cool lol:lol:

 

[KevinPage]

So the little girl who comes out of the barrell is being replaced.

I kept getting thrown for a loop when people reffered to the "woman" being replaced.

It's a little girl with blonde curls people :lol: :lol: :lol:

 

[shaelyn]

and i dont think she was naked because she had on a hat and it looked like the starting of her dress.(well in wdw)

The pirate in front of her used to be holding a lacy something and wondering where the girl went. She was hiding from him in the barrel, presumably naked. It was PCed up

 

[adamthegetupkid]

Actually, that pirate just looks like David Crosby to me...

I'm not sure where you get that from.....

 

[JROK]

So what happened to "enhancing" the attraction and not really changing it? That little girl was a big part of the attraction, a lot of guests' favorite, as well as important enough to have her own toy... Why don't they change the lady in the red dress to Kiera Knightly's character, and remove the dog in the jail scene too? :lookaroun

They would never get rid off "The Red Head". The Red Head and The Jail Dog are two off the most popular POTC figures on the ride and in the movie. But then again, I am not sure if they are keeping the dog or not in the new jail scene.

you should probably skip Universal altogether.

never mind the firing of guns at each other.

don't all kids play "guns" anymore?

Just imagine if I had to explain the degradation of women back then as well...

probably should throw out your TV as well.

I was going to say the same thing! :lol: :lol:
