I'm not totally sure I agree with the concept that Will is released from the curse. How do you explain the flash of green when he leaves Elizabeth on the beach after their romantic enounter? As the FD sails away into the sunset, there's a flash of green and the ship disappears.
Ten years later, when her and her son are waiting on the cliff, we see the flash of green and the FD appears.
The discussion is made during the movie that the flash of green indicates a soul being released. But the flash occurs when he leaves her AND when he returns. Confusing......
On the other hand, I'm also HOPING for a POC4!!!
OK, I have something else that doesn't quite make sense. Davey Jones cut out his heart AFTER Calypso didn't show up, not when he was made captain of the FD. He says in POTC 2 that he cut it out because he was so heartbroken that he didnt' want it anymore, or something like that. So why did Will have to have his heart cut out to become captain?

Now I'm ticked that they didn't record the rest of that song. >_< I love the part that's on the soundtrack and I SO want to hear the rest.I think the song had something to do about Calypso as well. Like the pirates knew they had her to use if they ever had to rally together. I've been listening to the soundtrack all day (which is fantastic, btw), and the lyrics to "Hoist the Colors" seem to fit when it refers to the Queen. Only part of it is on the soundtrack, but I found the rest of the lyrics:
The King and his men stole the queen from her bed
And bound her in her bones
The seas be ours, and by the powers
Where we will, we'll roam
Yo-ho, haul together
Hoist the colors high
Heave-ho, theives and beggars
Never say we die
Some men have died
and some are alive
and others sail on the sea
with the keys to the cage
and the Devil to pay
we lay to Fiddlers Green!
The bell has been raised
from its watery grave
Do you hear its sepulchral tone?
We are a call to all,
pay head the squall
and turn your sail toward home!
Yo, ho, haul together,
hoist the Colors high
Heave ho, thieves and beggars,
never say we die.

And the version that was used in the film is an actual recording of the actors playing the pirates from that scene, recorded both individually and as a group, which I thought was pretty cool.Yeah, I thought it was amazing how they wrote the song before they even filmed DMC! It's like, wow. As for the song... I can't stop singing it.I've had that song stuck in my head all day long! I don't know if anyone else cares about this stuff, but there was a lot of interesting info re. this song (and others) in the liner notes for the AWE soundtrack. For "Hoist the Colours"-- apparently, it was written before they'd even started work on the score for DMC. The music was written by Gore Verbinski (director) & Hans Zimmer, and Ted Elliott and Terry Rossio (the film's writers) wrote the lyrics. An early version of the song was recorded in Zimmer's studio and featured Keira Knightley, Kevin McNally, and Hans' wife Suzanne. Mark Wherry, who wrote the liner notes, said about that night, "I remember there was wine that evening. I don't remember much else."
Now I have to figure out the other verses and add them. 
No clue.So, was Keira actually singing in her first scene in the movie or was she lip synching? It looked to me like she was lip synching
I did think she had a very different singing voice, but I really thought it was her.

). I downloaded the soundtrack on iTunes, so I didn't get to see the liner notes.
Ooh, many thanks in advance if you do go see it again! I was trying to lip-read (which I'm not good at, unless it's really obvious), and it almost looked to me like she was about to drop a couple of f-bombs once she really got worked up!
