Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest

They find the chest and Cap'n Jack, Will and Norrington fight for it. Norrington ends up with the heart and makes a run for it. The rest of the characters go back to the Pearl and are attacked by the Flying Dutchman. They outrun it but are caught by the Kraken. Cap'n Jack flees the ship in a rowboat. Will, Elizabeth and the rest of the crew hoist up a net filled withgunpowder intending to shoot it and set the Kraken on fire. Cap'n Jack comes back to the ship and shoots the powder (much to Elizabeth's surprise) setting the Kraken on fire, holding it off temporarily. They all agree that they should abandon ship. Elizabeth kisses Cap'n Jack which Will spots. She then cuffs him to the mast saying that it's him that endangers them. He gets killed by the Kraken. Beckett is given the heart by Norrington. The survivors of the Pearl go to Tia Dalma who asks if they want to save 'Witts Jack and his precious Pearl'. They agree. She then claims that they will need a Captain who knows where they are going. Down marches Captain Barbossa finishing the movie with the line 'So tell me what's become of my ship'? After the end credits, we see the dog that was left behind on the cannibal island sitting on the throne with a bone in his mouth. He has been made chief of the cannibal tribe.

Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest mistake picture

Plot hole: There are six metal bars mounted around the circumference of the water wheel's axle. In the wheel's interior, when Jack frees himself he lands on his feet, begins to run and promptly hits his head on one of those mounted axle bars, then falls out. Moments later, when Jack returns and runs in the wheel, he is shorter (way more than a foot) than all six of the mounted axle bars spinning with the water wheel, which would make that previous shot impossible, however humorous it is.

Trivia: The incredibly short shot of Tortuga when it is first shown (with the man being dunked and such) was actually filmed on the Pirates of the Caribbean ride in Disneyland. While the ride was shut down for remodeling, the crew actually went there and shot the scene with a mixture of live actors and existing animatronic props. If you look closely, many of the "actors" can be seen as fake. (01:04:50)

More trivia for Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest

Question: When Will goes looking for the key on the destroyed ship, a sailor falls in the foreground, and when Will approaches him he has no face whatsoever. Did the kraken do that? Why and how was he still alive?

Answer: Yes, the idea is that this poor soul got too close to one of the Kraken's tentacles and one of the suckers pulled his face off. Presumably he can still breathe in some fashion, something has been left that allows air access to the lungs, allowing him to still be alive, although it doesn't sound like he's long for this world, so presumably the damage is extensive.
