The Last Capt. Jack AA On POTC

[lugnut33]

Did they change something about the last Audio Animatronic Captain Jack on Pirates? You know, the one where he's sitting in the room full of treasure. For some reason he looks less like Johnny Depp that he did when it first opened. He also looks less like Captain Jack than the other ones in the ride.... or am I nuts?

He has been broken several times, his mouth didn't move for about 3-4 months in 2010 and his hand was stuck in one position for a while. He looked like he had suffered a stroke or an accident that caused him paralysis. But that was fixed before we returned in Aug 2010 maybe it's broke again. We have seen that Jack in various states of broken since a year or two after he was installed, sometimes its just the audio is off, sometimes he isn't moving, once his eyes were stuck closed, etc. Maybe when they fixed him one of the times they made some changes to his appearance but we havn't noticed anything major.

Hmmm, I see what you mean.

I'll have to watch an older POTC video to compare, but yes, the Captain Jack in the final scene looks,... different.

I never thought the one in the chair really looked much like him . . . . .the first 2 yes.

Okay, here he looks more like Johnny.

They must have changed the face on the AA.

Yeah, there apprears to be a difference between the 2006 version and the current day one in those videos.

...does anyone else think this pic looks like he got punched in the face or something? Just curious.
