I've heard varying things--one year, two years--does anyone know if there is a specific amount of time that the writers have said took place between the two films, or are they leaving that all up to us to decipher? |

I don't know that I've heard, exactly. I would think it's been more than six months, but less than a year. Certainly not more than a year, I wouldn't think. We know that Norrie resigned his commission 'some months ago'. And that was after chasing the BP into the hurricane. So figure Norrie took off after the Pearl fairly soon after Jack got away. He spent maybe a couple months chasing them, and then resigned his commission in disgrace. That must have been about when word got back to England, and the arrest warrants were issued. From Jack's end, we know they've been knocking about the Atlantic and also tangled with the hurricane. I can't imagine that even Jack's crew would go for as long as a year without doing a 'speck of honest piratin'. So my feeling is that it's probably been something on the order of 8 or 9 months, perhaps. |

Yeah, my guess is near to or spot-on a year. Davy Jones says that Jack has been captain of the BP for 13 years. Jack retorts that he was captain for only 2 years before being mutinied upon. So, you have 2 years of Jack as captain, then the mutiny... 10 years after the mutiny brings us to the main events of CotBP (so that's 12 years that the BP has been Jack's). Add a year following CotBP, and we're at Year 13 in DMC wherein the deal with Davy is up (Jack as the BP's captain for 13 years then servitude to Davy for 100 years). So, yeah, I'd say around a year has passed 'tween CotBP and DMC. :Love To All: ~ Joy ~ |

Also I don't think Binky and Elizabeth would wait much more than a year to be married. A year sounds about right. Captain Will Williams |

I was so going to start a thread about this! You guys are great. I agree with tina's calculations. Besides, as will mentioned, I think Will and Elizabeth (especially Elizabeth!) would have wanted to get married as soon as possible. Too bad they couldn't have done it even a week earlier before Beckett showed up. <_< |

True but it would be bad form in that day and age to just get married immediately, especially as she's the Governor's daughter and she had just broken off an engagement. I think they had to wait for the fuss to calm down and do it properly. Captain Will Williams |
