for your recent ask on how to build relationships in movies where you used willabeth as an example i was just thinking of them as i read ur post lmao! what do u think are some underrated aspects of their relationship in the films ? and if you had to pick a favorite film of the potc trilogy based on just willabeth, which would you pick?
Oh, yay! A Willabeth ask!
AWE automatically wins on "At Wit's End" (aka "Will and Elizabeth's love theme") alone. That is the soundtrack to a cosmic, epic, transcendental, soul-moving, earth-shattering love story, that is the epitome of a romantic composition, it is everything. Like just listen.
But I mean, the scenes that they have in this movie?
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
I'm not sure that there's anything that shippers find underrated about them, it would just be in response to Sparrabeth shippers or people who are anti-Willabeth, which I just don't find merits a response but something I do quite enjoy about the Willabeth love story is the role Jack plays in it and how his respective bonds with Will and Elizabeth actually reinforce that love story:
Like, Jack helps Will come to terms with his parentage and history
Tumblr media
and therefore who he is and Will, in turn, saves Jack from the gallows.
Elizabeth has faith in Jack, tells him he’s a good man, helps him see the morality of situations
Tumblr media
and Jack does prove her right in Dead Man’s Chest by coming back to help the crew but I think the most significant way he proves her right is by going against a desire he wanted for all of At World’s End so he can do right by Will (and it actually goes further than his desire throughout At World’s End but to a fundamental passion like he sold his soul to Davy Jones to get the Pearl, that’s how much he loves the sea)
Tumblr media
and then you had Jack speaking to Elizabeth’s desire for freedom
Tumblr media
and encourages her obtainment of that freedom, of that agency, of that power
Tumblr media
which ultimately leads back to her choosing to love and be with Will
Tumblr media
which, despite what antis say, isn't a regression. The trilogy begins with seeing her discomfort in "polite society" and feeling pressured into doing what's expected i.e. an engagement to Norrington
Tumblr media
which includes hiding her fascination with pirates as well as her feelings for Will
Tumblr media Tumblr media
the two things are interconnected. In fact, when we see her being chastised for not behaving the way she should, it's when she's too intimate with Will
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Her interest in pirates is signified with her keeping Will's medallion
Tumblr media
her choosing Will is also her choosing her own freedom
Tumblr media
Will even teaches her how to fight
Tumblr media
and throughout the trilogy, it's them discovering more facets of themselves i.e. Will reunites with his father, Elizabeth actually gets to be a pirate but what even got them on those journeys was trying to find/help the other so they can be together
Tumblr media Tumblr media
and those layers just bring them back together stronger. This has always been the point
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
This also isn't exactly underrated but I find when I go into the tag, there's a lot of emphasis on what Will does for Elizabeth, how he supports her, how in love with her he is, how devoted to her he is and I completely understand why but also Elizabeth's devotion to Will deserves a spotlight as well.
Going to fight undead pirates alone to save Will
Tumblr media
Being both surprised and upset at Will even considering that she could be in love with Jack
Tumblr media
Giving away the entire plan because she couldn't feign disinterest when Sao Feng acted as though he'd stab Will
Tumblr media
Having to literally be carried away by Jack when Will was stabbed
Tumblr media
Even the smaller, in between things like Will shouting at Elizabeth to shoot at the barrels of rum but her refusing because he was still caught in the net.
I just love them so much.

These two. They are Shakespearean characters. Rosencrantz and Guildenstern.

Okay, how much are you willing to bet that the church on the island where Davy Jones's heart is buried is where he was meant to marry the woman he was in love with? It would make SO MUCH sense then, that he would choose to bury his heart there. PLUS it explains why he's unwilling to let Jack take Will and get married. (Aside from just not wanting to fall for Jack's schemes.)
And Davy Jones says that "I can't set foot on land for nearly ten years yet." and there's a fresh-ish-ly dug grave on the island... (The one Jack falls into during the water wheel scene.) Where else would he ever have need to go ashore other than the island where he was due to marry his lover? Or even if you don't agree with that theory, why go ashore anywhere else than the island where you buried your heart? It just makes sense. I mean, I don't necessarily think that he was ready to give in and die for real, but I wonder if he keeps that grave dug for himself. As a reminder? A threat? A promise? A mix of all of the above? I'm not entirely sure, but given how small and utterly otherwise abandoned the island was, and the non-overgrown-ness of the grave Jack fell into, I feel like it just makes sense.
