Yeah and in the beginning of their relationship they loved each other deeply and after they were separate for ten years after he brought the drowned souls and those who died at sea. When davy came ashore again he cut his own heart out so that he couldn't feel betrayed or heartbroken again he locked it in a chest, buried it and never went back to retrieve it ever
I also love how she says he was never cruel. But in the second movie he says “life is cruel why shouldn’t the afterlife be any different”. Just a great way of showing that Davy Jones is not really a cruel man. His life and afterlife are so cruel it made him like this.
The fact that Davy Jones still asked *“why weren’t you there?”* expecting an excuse as to why she couldn’t be there, but instead she answers *“it’s my nature”* and the shock on Davy Jones face is heart breaking.
Not even an attempt at an excuse, which I'd argue is the worst part. She set the parameters that if Jones worked for a solid decade, yet couldn't be arsed to get over herself for _one_ day out of *three thousand, six hundred and fifty two.* Davy Jones used to be a good man and deserved better than to be played by that unfaithful wench.
I heard the line "My heart will always belong to you" many times from different actors from different movies. But none can compare to how it made the audience feel when davy jones said it because it is so desperately true
It works because it is both loving and his curse when in context. And the way Bill Nighy’s voice captures the way he realises this, knowing that he loves her still, but still hates her for what she did. Hates himself for not being able to let go, and finally realised why she did it. He got some closure, and realised that because of his heartbroken actions against her while justified, ensured that he would never have a happy ending.
@@rustkarl That is where the movie gets it wrong (again): Love is not an emotion. If it was, this would work. But love is a choice. And so long as love is a choice - meaning, forever - one can never come into such situation where it is not possible to find a happy ending. No man nor woman nor child can love a Goddess truly. And Davy Jones is lost. But for certain, you have to be lost to find the places can't be found; otherwise, everyone would know where it was.
The cruelest thing about this scene aside from the obvious emotional torment was Calypso temporarily restoring Jones' human form. He spent presumably centuries in his mutated state, long enough to at least become acclimated to it. But to have his humanity returned for those bare few seconds only to have it taken away again reminded him again of what he was... And what he lost.
Well given his accents and localization I doubt he was transforming mutated for centuries maybe one given the way Legends and lower conversed but the modern certainly when we get to the Age of Enlightenment what is Scottish and with his Scottish accent Davy Jones couldn't have been that far removed from the land of Alba I really wish they would delve into his backstory more when he was in Scotland when did he leave what was his career how did he become a pirate what were the circumstances of his encounter with calypso I'm of the opinion that Davie Jones was akin to Jack Sparrow Will Turner Hector Barbossa Norrington all of them he was the hero until he fell in love with a goddess who is if anything other than righteous
@@TheDogGeneral if we assume the time of the dutchman and davy jones supposed timeline of the actual myths than its the early 17th century assuming the pirate movie take place circa 1750s it has been close to 150 years
@El-Silver correct correct on that arcade I mean the inclusion of King George the second in the franchise does sort of narrowing the timelines but I think the Dutchman's far older than Davy Jones given that I think Calypso already had possession of the Dutchman and merely placed in Davy Jones's charge But said it's very one-dimensional with the characters it kind of takes me back to Darth Vader he was very one-dimensional in the first Star Wars film we have some idea of his past life before the events of the film but nothing was really hammered out until the franchise progress and was expanded but I think Davy Jones what's the crossroads of all the characters his emotional torment was so great he had to cut his heart out Like quaritch the Avatar franchise and Vader from Star Wars Davy Jones backstory I feel like he's very compelling and rich in his own right and if they were to bring him back it would be the buku Big Daddy of the sea looking to take revenge
Well she is the daughter of the Titan Atlas (or Oceanus or Nereus), a nymph of the mythical island of Ogygia and the reason why she turned into a horde of Crabs is because that's her symbol.
It’s not entirely his mortal form, after all he’s still missing his heart. Though I love the small attention to detail when they had him touch her face his fingers were in the shape of a pincer claw because his muscle memory was so used to the actual claw he had. It’s a small touch on just how long he has been in that monstrous state.
@@azazelsiad3601 nah that’s just how bill nighys hands work. He has some sort of condition I think. If you look at any other films or interviews he points with his middle finger like he does here
I love this scene so much because Davy Jones clearly loves her quite a lot and it's very clear she loves him back but she's not a human she's a goddess specifically of the sea which is cruel and forever changing as unpredictable as it comes. The sea can be calm and beautiful sure but it can also be violent and harsh, that's honestly what makes his final moments beautiful in a sense. Davy Jones could never truly be with Calypso so long as he lived, in his final moments when he heard the music box and died falling into the abyss he fell into the sea he fell into calypso he'll be with her forever in the very sea itself in the end he got what he wanted.
You forgot a third thing too: calypso found out from Will right before she returned to her Goddess form that Davy Jones was the one who betrayed her and showed the brethren court how to bind her and seal her away for so long. Now realizing the truth, the enraged Goddess Calypso refused to aid either side in the battle, and I could tell she then harbored immense hatred and loathing towards Davy Jones. Most likely looking on piteously at his death & plunder into the abyss.
@@T69873 the last thing her captor (which was jones) felt in his life was hiw cruel she can be, and when she was freed, he had a heart to give, which he did give, and then he fell into "the heart of the sea" and then they were together again. So she did all that she said
The way he flinches when she says "It's my nature." gets to me. It's like he KNEW that was the answer, knew all along. Told himself that time and again to try and wall off his love for her. But hearing HER say those words broke the flimsy wall because he has always loved her for what she is. That's why he has to turn when telling her the lie.
thats why he deeply regret for telling the brethren court how to bind her in human form and also the reason why he cut off his heart. he did knew the reason why she wasn't there after 10 years, calypso is the sea and oceans are unpredictable
@@jorgebersabe293 He was so desperate to have one day on land with her, supposedly on his terms, all while forgetting that he technically spent ten at sea, always with her, never parting. His love was also his duty, and she charged no one else but the mortal she loved to ferry those that died, but it's also a cruel reminder of his short-lived fragility compared to a Goddess.
Another nice touch is as she closes her locket, the song doesn’t end. She looks up confused and in interest, odds are she hasn’t heard his locket in YEARS
Ten years I devoted to the duty you charged to me. Ten years I ferried those who died at sea to the other side. And finally when we could be together again... you weren’t there. WHY WEREN’T YOU THERE?
And that sometimes those depicted as heroes aren't always in the right. Like miss 'I'm going to break my promise after you slaved away for a decade because I'm fickle so I can't be expected to be loyal for one day out of three thousand, six hundred and fifty two' here.
I love how they used different voices for Davy the Sea Devil and Davy the loving sailor. I love that they actually show the distinction. Like when Calypso temporarily reverted his form back to its original self, and he gasps for air in those short, quick breaths, as if he'd been suffocating for a long time. And to think that even when the Sea Devil returned and was this close to choking her out, he couldn't bring himself to do it and leaves, but he still couldn't fight back his true self when he speaks what has always been true: "My heart will always belong to you" This makes it even more tragic that both of the Davys needed to die to be with Calypso again.
I like to think that when he gasped and started breathing hard it’s because he had a nose again and could breathe properly. That and all that external growths of sea critters probably was internal too. His organs started functioning normal after probably a century or more of not
I think a beautiful detail that when Calypso plays her locket it sounds almost perfectly in tune, because she didn't want t keep thinking about him after what he did to her, but when Davey's starts playing you don't need perfect pitch to tell that it's out of tune, and noticeably flat. I think that this is such a cool detail because you can tell that Davey has played that Music box so much that it it getting flatter and flatter, since he can't stop thinking about Calypso. The like "my heart will always belong to you" is the payoff from this little detail and I think it' such an amazing piece of development with such a simple detail.
It’s even sadder when you realize how hers doesn’t play as much it’s because Davy Jones has buried himself so far in his pain and anger and torment he refuses to think about her and only the damage he causes
That's an interesting way to see it, but I don't think Calypso doesn't play it because of what Jones did. Only because at this point Calypso doesn't know it was Jones who told the Brethren Court how to bind her in her mortal state. She only finds out when Will tells her after being released.
Calypso and davvy need there own movie together so we can understand everything like in the movies so much of there relationship was put into just 10'ins
I hope this helps, though a movie would be awesome: Calypso was a Pagan Deity (a cross between her Greek incarnation and Lovecraftian Old Ones) and Davy Jones was an ancient sea captain and mariner, maybe a pirate but probably an adventurer and prospector, charting the New World centuries before the events of the movie trilogy. Calypso's power was a dominion over the seas, the exact level is unknown but it's implied that one of her tasks was her oversight of those who died on the Oceans and she was more than just the form we see in the movie (shape-shifting and such). Davy Jones found her in the new world (Islands, Carribean, Bermuda Triangle, fuck it if I know) and fell deeply in love with her, and her with him. It's important to remember that like most Gods in myth, she loved him a Goddess does, and maybe her ability to comprehend the emotions and expectations of Jones were different since one could argue that she is on an almost literal level IS the Seas (although she might also just be a fickle manipulative cunt if the Odyssey is anything to go by...). This does however support the theory I've seen once or twice crop up that she was always with him in a way as he sailed and "lived" within and with her always, it also akin's Jones' almost hypnotically induced love of her with that of Sailors and their sometimes passionate (or even obsessive) love of the Ocean. It also aligns with a fair amount of Greek and European tales that all warn of the perils of dealing with the Gods and the tragedy that befalls their love due to the difference in their stations. Romantic/Obsession relationships later, Calypso elects Jones as her champion or Agent, instilling in him great powers and binding him to both her and the seas. He gains great knowledge of the occult, access to ancient magics and an understanding of the divine (well her at least), plus effective immortality. For a decade he saw to his task and ferried those who died at sea with his ship, the Flying Dutchman, and made sure they passed into the afterlife as the natural order demanded. He did this under the condition that, after his decade of service was past, he would meet her again and they would be together forever (poor crewmen are just along for the ride at this point). He is not a squidface at this stage. Time rolls up and she's a no-show, he probably doesn't get completely enraged and try to kill her right off the bat since she and him are linked and she has power over him (literally and emotionally) but eventually her grows very fucking bitter, and honestly, I can't really blame him. There may have been a substantial amount of time that passed between him getting ditched and him having her bound however, and it's how I always understood it. Since he can't directly "kill" or imprison her, he instead rounds up the first few pirate houses of the time period and strikes a bargain with them; in exchange for completing the ritual that will bind her in a fixed form (probably the one he met her as) and vow to never have release her, they will be blessed and have dominion over the seas. They accept and perform the ritual to bind her in a "tortured" state, for a shape-shifting goddess whose entire shtick is to ebb, flow and shift like the sea, being "still" is hell. He keeps up his end of the bargain, technically. Without the fickle nature of Calypso, the seas are tamable and the Pirate lords of Old prosper, it's quite clear that they were far more organized and cohesive back then (given the codex) but slowly fragmented, the rules becoming "guidelines" and infighting being frequent. As the centuries pass, Jones becomes further corrupted, his physical form and spiritual essence warping into a tentacle-hentai worthy figure, and instead of safely ferrying the dead as was intended, he binds them to his increasingly twisted vessel and grows his crew, offering a way out of death for those that are dead, or dying, at sea (those poor sods that left with Jones on his voyages way back in the day). He also has a big pet octopus and cyclically can't go on land except once a decade (the anniversary of his betrayal, yikes). Dead Men tell no tales suggests that the Dutchman actually follows a set course in its search for souls to add to it's crew (or ferry to the afterlife).
Honestly, I feel like people often misunderstand Calypso. She's not human, she's a goddess; she doesn't think like a human, she certainly doesn't act like a human - and you can't really hold her to the same human standards. Lemme explain. Gods have all the time in the world, so, therefore, waiting ten years wouldn't be that much of a big deal for them. Hell, it probably would only feel like a passing second to them, in the grand scheme of things. For mortals like us on the other hand, ten years is a very long time; and though Jones did become immortal through his duty to the Dutchman-- he still kept a mortal's mentality. By the tone of his voice when he confronts her, you can tell that ten years still very much feels like an eternity to him, or at least it had back then. I personally think that these differences in time, and the understanding of it, is why their relationship failed so badly. Since they were both now immortal, in her eyes, Calypso believed that they had all the time in the world to be together - and as previously stated, ten years to her wasn't that long anyway - so what did it matter that she wasn't available to him right then? Well, I don't think that properly explains it. For a better example, think of it like this: you schedule a date, but later you realize that it's not a good time and you can't make it, so you do the obvious and reschedule it to a later day - no big deal. In my speculations, that is how it was for her-- a mundane rescheduling of a promised meeting. She was going to meet him again eventually, just not on that day. And she probably thought, now that Jones wasn't bound by time, that he would understand and go about the next ten years with a smile on his face knowing she'd show up next time. Of course, as previously stated once again, that didn't work out---Jones did not share the same mentality. He was once mortal and had only been immortal for a decade. Ten years was a lifetime to him, and her not showing up was an unforgivable act of betrayal, and that's where they fell apart. And... that's honestly the best way I can put all of this. A final word, before I wrap things up: I'm not saying Calypso is blameless in this situation. Nor am I saying that this is Jones' fault for choosing to love a goddess such as her without seeing this outcome as a possibility. This is all just my silly speculations and theories.... and really, an attempt to get inside Calypso's confusing head. Anyways, thanks for reading this probably unclear mess. This took me too long.
It's more like a guy who has a strict and busy work schedule, sets up a date with his girlfriend who's a "dramatic" woman that's he's still in love with. (and she knows and agrees to) he goes the extra mile booking a restaurant or something making sure it's going to be great. Later when its time he finds out he's been completely ghosted,Later he gets a text saying "My bad but you know how I am sometimes". That in term causes the guy to become completely toxic. Going by the movie she's cruel,evil, indifferent, unpredictable and even kind/loving all at the same time it seems. Both are at fault this was a relationship that most likely would have ended up where it did in the films. It's pretty depressing knowing Davy Jones probably hates himself because he can't help but love some entity who's incapable of loving him back the same way.
"True. You would say I have done evil, but you cannot judge me. You think as men think, and what I am is beyond the comprehension of man." -Hecate (Hellboy)
this ain't human standards. It's hers. Her word. Her promise. Her bond. She broke her own promise. Human or not, breaking your own promise is your own standard. it has nothing to do with human or not
I love how when he says “my heart will always belong to you”, he sounds more human. Like he’s much softer and kinder, rather than his typical heartless self
I just noticed something. When Calypso says that she’s going to show them how cruel she can be, Davy actually sighs quietly and shakes his head, as if saying “I knew you’d say that and I really was hoping you wouldn’t.” I get the feeling he knows just how cruel she can be and knows vaguely what she’s going to do to everyone outside that cell. He’s aware that she can and probably will kill everyone out there, perhaps even considering himself too. It’s a subtle detail but a simple husbandly sigh brings more weight in this unique of a relationship
Does that also suggest that Davy Jones isn’t a heartless monster (in more than a literal sense) and doesn’t enjoy seeing countless people die? That would be kickass if they made a villain that is against such brutality, if only a little
Well, he's definitely concerned that he will be included - after all, he's the one who told the Brethren Court how to trap her in human form to begin with. That said, I think he's mostly beyond caring at this point. Life has become a burden for him.
He sighs because how cruel she can be is what he has experienced from her. And also she represents the sea ,she is the embodiment of the sea . And all sailors who have died at sea experienced how cruel the thing they loved and devoted there life too could be moments before death . All them pirates love the sea ,its there home and there wives . But if they are to die at sea from waves ,storms ,winds . Then they are to learn how cruel what they love can truly be. Same as davy did,only with a personified example .
It's nice to know that Will and Elizabeth avoided this fate. Elizabeth stayed true to Will, as he did to her. It's also a little sad because in them we see what Davy and Calypso could've been
The difference is that Elizabeth is human and Calypso is not. It would be difficult enough for a human to wait 10 years at a time but a goddess with numerous inhuman tendencies and urges is impossible.
@@fighterck6241 I think this goes over people’s heads a lot in this story. A God does not think as a mortal. They maybe similar in a lot of ways but never the same. Calypso is the embodiment of the sea ever changing, unpredictable, benevolent & peaceful but also cruel & wrathful. Her and Jones could have never truly been together in his life. She may have loved him but her nature would always conflict.
Calypso is the sea. If Davy Jones realized that earlier he would have known that she gave him the gift of eternal love by binding him to a job where he would almost never be on land. When he bounded her to human form he realized that he removed her from his life and that's why he carved out his own heart. The pain of realizing that she actually was with him everyday except once every ten years instead of the other way around, and he just made it so she's never around was killing him.
You can feel the raw emotion when Calypso made Davy what he was before he corrupted himself. A man, pure of heart. Both strong and fragile at the same time, loving the one thing that gave him purpose. The sea, you can see it. How he was able to actually breath, how he can actually feel. How he missed her soothing touch
Seriously, after all those years. After all the heavy burden he has carried, slowly becoming numb to the world. Pirates of the Caribbean have always portrayed the three raw emotions of Greed ( Barbosa ), Grief ( Davy Jones ), Pride ( Blackbeard ) and Wrath ( Salazar )
So many cool things in this scene. Calypsos honesty about her nature perfectly explains why she hates Davy becoming cruel, bc that goes against HIS nature. Also, Davy didn’t just fall in love with this mortal form of calypso, he loves her for what she is: the SEA. During the maelstrom, he is the FIRST person to recognize who is the cause of the storm, and he comes alive when the storm starts. He fell in love with the capricious, beautiful and cruel sea, and the very things he loved about the sea are what broke his heart.
Yeah. People don't understand she's not a person, she's a goddess. Love and hate, good and evil, loyalty and betrayal, means nothing to her. It's her nature as supernatural being.
"My heart will always belong to you" I loved the delivery of that line. Really sold that, he's known his path for many years and has just been... waiting.
Notice when re reaches through the bars to touch her face at 2:12 it looks like he's forgotten how to move the individual fingers on his left hand. That's a nice little detail they added.
Thats the harsh part about life. Its never about being ignorant , sometimes the answer you seek is just the word from someone you wanting to hear all along.
It’s really nice to see people delving in this relationship more ever since this came out. Their love still remains a mystery even when they give us symbolic clues to what they were. Lore really kept this trilogy special.
I love how this scene shows Davy Jones at his most vulnerable. Confronting Calypso the only person who won his heart and after she betrayed him, he cut it out so he could never feel that pain again. Such a great character.
Fell Sans That is REALLY not how it goes, at least in the PotC storyline. Here, because he broke his duty Calypso gave him, a curse was set upon him and the crew that changed them into the creatures of the sea
What I love about this scene is that, at least from my point of view, Davy Jones loved the "concept" of Calypso, not who and what she really was. She says it herself, this "single form". She is as much the sea and everything that makes it, as she is the mortal form she takes. Davy Jones loved her, but I think he never fully grasped just who and what she was. When she says "Cut off from all the things that I love, from you" I get the feeling that even though Davy Jones wanted to see her as a person and didn't, she was *always* with him. In the waves, the sea creatures, storms- she was there. But she's Calypso, she doesn't exist how you expect or may want. That maybe this entire time she was with him, in little ways- but never behaving the way he would want or expect. leaving Davy Jones sadly torn. In love with her, but mortal in many ways and never truly able to grasp or come to term with what Calypso was. It's the one aspect of the later films I do love, the tragic story of Calypso and Davy Jones.
There's a doctor who scene that's rather relevant here; the reunion of the the Twelfth Doctor and his wife, River Song. To many, The Doctor is more than a extradimensional wanderer. He's a nomadic god, with the power to shape all of time and space should he wish two. River on the other hand... she's just an archeologigist from the future, merely human. Yet, she's the wife of a Time Lord One of the very, very last ones left, in fact. She loves him and he loves her, but she doesn't know that. In her mind, she is just a human and though she loves the Doctor, she feels that its not mutual. In her mind, she's just a person and he's the Doctor. When a villain attempts to lure the Doctor to them, she insists that despite being a known consort of the Doctor, the Doctor doesn't love her and never really has. In her own words, "When you love the Doctor, its like loving the stars themselves. You don't expect a sunset to admire you back." This reflects Calypso and Davy Jones' relationship in a way. Calypso is the embodiment of the sea itself but like you said: Jones didn't understand that. He loved Calypso as one person would love another, unable to realize the nature of what exactly it was that he loved in the first place. In other words, he expected a sunset to admire him back. The story of Davy Jones and Calypso is fantastic, and as someone aspiring to be a writer, I love it. If I can one day write to this level, I will be elated.
This literally symbolises the power of a woman that is truly loved by a man. One touch, and Jones returned to his mortal form. Every man is has a hard shell that only the woman he loves can pierce through. And she does it with such ease…
If you think of it. Davy Jones himself is the physical manifestation of the women he both loves and hates. The octopus is the enemy of the crab. Octopuses kill and eat Crustaceans Calypso as sacred symbol is the *crab*. So his hatered and heartbreak of Tia molded him into the very creature that hates her. But he's still part crab because somewhere, inside he still has love for Tia Dalma/Calypso, hence the claw/leg. Does Disney plan it? Or make it up as they go along. Certain blew me mind!
It certainly has...Depp to it. Eh, sounded funnier in my head. But Sparrow does make a good point, never saw it that way. Jones is both Octopus and crab so he both hates and loves her?
I love the look on his face when she touches his chest - where his heart should be - and the little gasps he makes, like he got overwhelmed with emotions and breath in his lungs again. You could see it in that moment, he still knew - no matter how much he tried to deny it or feign coldness - he still loved her, dearly. With but a single touch; the feared, great, and powerful Davy Jones was but a simple man left breathless... and in love.
I think after the 2 movies after worlds end, we were spoiled by these movies. They were slammed by fans too harshly but now after watching these, the first 3 movies were so great.
@@toasterpastries5811 I am a woman, well a girl at least... I still agree that there are many of us, who find it entertaining that men run after them. In the end they just leave the poor guys alone.
They’re both at fault to be honest. Davy attempted to make a goddess his, knowing full well the risks. She played with a man’s heart knowing full well she couldn’t be with him. That is the definition of love. Knowing the risks and the potential pains, and yet deciding that they’re worth it...
Love this interpretation. Their relationship represents what the heart wants versus the realities of life. Neither of them were able to let it go even though it damaged them.
I’m going through it right now... a long distance relationship, feeling like being severed from one of my own limb and left it half a world away. But we are both fighting to keep the fire burning.
What's extra heart-breaking is that she still doesn't know that he betrayed her, which would be why she initially assumed he came to rescue her. Davy Jones really kept away from her for decades out of his own guilt/anger towards her. He could've kept his secret & been with her in her human form, but nah. Couldn't face her, even if she didn't know what he'd done. So much depth for Disney characters, fr why I love this series.
Calypso is such an awesome character, as much as davy jones. I think the actress plays her perfectly, she really just captures that air of dread yet beauty that is the ocean.
Jacob and Emma, those two from "The Fifth Element", Justin and Selena, Prince Charming and Snow White, Prince Charming and Cinderella, Philip and Aurora... Did i forgot someone?
dont stress over it dude, we all been there no use in wasting your time getting sad over a woman, if she rejected you consider it her loss not yours, work on yourself and love yourself over everything, when the time is right you will be happy
@@ashurthegreatest9316 That's a cold comfort considered the woman herself probably doesn't feel she lost anything. To her, the dude is just another chapter in her selfish magical story who has to tell himself "She missed out" to cope with being dumped.
You can tell once Calypso brought him back to his original form, he could feel. Truly feel, taking deep breaths for the first time in many years. So much emotion, so many feelings. It drives a man to do both great and terrible deeds. You could see it upon his face, the guilt. The pain, the love that he had for her
Ten years I devoted to the duty you charged to me... Ten years I looked after those who died at sea... And finally when we could be together again... You. Weren’t. There.
I think he desperately doesn't want to love her. He wants her imprisoned forever, he speaks about her with hate and rage. Yet here he realizes that his heart will also belong to her despite what he wants. This is probably why he keeps playing their song on his piano yet is filled with rage and agony while doing it. He probably cut his heart out in Hope's it would stop him from loving her.
0:17 I can’t be the only one who gets shivers down the spine when tia dalmas locket closes, jones starts up out of know where. Honestly I love this scene
When Davy said " my heart will always belong to you" I always hear what he choose not to say " But yours will never be mine" because when he said it, his eyes was so sad when he look back at her.
A villain easily on par with Darth Vader or any classic villain. The voice, the eyes, the design, the acting, the backstory, the emotion. It's all a fucking masterpiece.
The best part of this is that Davy Jones never truly realised what Calypso gave him when she tasked him with the duty of looking after those who died at sea. Davy Jones was a mortal man, and Calypso the goddess of the ocean itself. His life would have been perilously short, but in making him the guardian of her dead, she made him as ageless as she was. Moreover, she granted him a life with her true form. Ten years travelling the beautiful oceans that made up her true being. He was beside her the entire time, but thought only of the woman, the human form. She gave him the gift of an eternity with her, and he squandered it because he couldn't see it for what it was.
Davy Jones was a villain, but he also had some anti-hero tendencies. Cutler Beckett was the ultimate villain in the second and third films of Pirates of the Caribbean.
Well Beckett is main villain even Jones is more interesting and iconic. But I don't see Beckett as real villain cause he has some anti hero tendencies too plus overall he wants to destroy pirates which in real life are real villains.
Davy Jones is essentially Darth Vader of the POTC, where he used to be good but turned into a monster due to betrayal. Beckett is Lord Sidious, pure evil & wants to conquer all of the sea.
Fuck Romeo and Juliet, okay, I am no baby I-HATE-KISSING-LITTLE-KID, But the story of Romeo and Juliet I find as just fucking annoying and makes me pissed off.
+Melodeezy Breezy true, a lot of the disney movies if you go deep and realize the story it could very well be dark, but for the most part its an upbeat, optimistic flow to the movies to where kids can digest it in their minds. While this one dives deeper into the eternal torment of Davy Jones.
Calypso is the sea. Davy Jones fell in love with the sea, so when he went onto the dry land looking for her after 10 years, she was no where to be found. When you think about it, Davy Jones and Calypso were together the ten years, and only separated when Davy Jones went onto dry land.
Davy Jones 100% needs his own movie where he falls in love with Calypso, and looks after those who died at sea for 10 years and then at the end of the movie we see him happily waiting for Calypso, but she doesn’t show and then we see him scream in pain as the sun sets and break down in tears. That would be the most depressing movie ever and I want- no.. I NEED TO SEE IT!
To be honest, Davy Jones never came across as a villain, rather than an antagonist. Sure, he has done horrible things in his life as Captain of the Flying Dutchman, but before that, he still carried out his duty ferrying the dead and was never repaid for it the way he wanted to be, hence why he became so cruel. Yet even then, he's cruel yet fair, vicious yet lawful, and let it never be said he isn't a man of his word. He's only really a 'villain' to us because Jack made a deal with him to raise the Pearl from the depths and knew the consequences of such a bargain, only to try and evade it. I feel like Davy is one of those villains who you feel a natural empathy for, rather than have the film try and force it upon you.
Don't forget how Jones bargained with Jack TWICE and each time upheld his end of the bargain (raised the Black Pearl for Jack, then gave him a 3 day buffer to collect 99 souls). Jones is technically always the more honorable man despite being the antagonist, which is fascinating and a great twist.
The great thing about this trilogy is that no one is truly a villain. Norrington is a man tasked with hunting down pirates so that the seas will remain safe for merchant traders. Barbossa is a man who only wants to feel human again, and so does whatever he can to do so. Davy Jones is a man who has been betrayed by the one thing he ever truly loved, and so reacts out of spite towards his situation. Hell, even Cutler Beckett, the one guy who actually feels like a “villain”, really isn’t. He does what he does because, as he states, it’s “just good business”.
@@etowahwillis902 I think the only true villain potc has are Salazar and Blackbeard, Salazar's motives was to take revenge on the man responsible for killing and later cursed him and he would do everything necessary to achieve it hence why he aligned himself with Barbossa and didn't kill Henry when they first meet to spread the message, whereas Blackbeard he wanted to live forever and be the strongest pirate to rule the 7 seas and he doesn't care that by wanting to live forever he's basically sucking the life out of the innocent (whether it was her daughter or some random person)
@@etowahwillis902 No Beckett is straight up evil. He's an elitist aristocrat who views those less fortunate than himself as animals. He just uses his position in the British Empire as a cover to protect himself from the concequences of his heinous acts. It's expanded upon more in the novels but the whole reason Beckett hates pirates to such a degree is because he was once captured by pirates and put to work on their ship doing "commoners work". Jack just cemented his beliefs to a larger degree. Beckett's a evil dude. No question about that.
I’m a little shocked I don’t see people talk about this scene more. You can just feel that they had a romance and want to be back together despite knowing how unlikely it is. The way Calypso stops her music box only for Jones to start his. The melody being the same tune he plays on his pipe organ showing how he kept her memory alive…And how normal Jones’ voice sounds when he says goodbye, almost like being near his love brought back just a small ounce of his old self.
I would pay to see a prequel trilogy focusing these two characters. A tragic lovestory dramedy set in the PotC universe. First movie: Young Davy Jones. Not all unlike Will Turner, brave and brazen. A grand adventure that ultimately leads to him meeting Calypso and the movie ends with them in each other’s arm, while their foreboding tragic love theme plays. Second movie: A darker tone. Misfortune seems to follow our anti-hero. He’s now charged with ferrying those who die at sea. Nearly 10 years have past. Adventure revolves around Jones desperately trying to reach their designated meeting place (A beach similar to the one where Will Turner and Elisabeth Swan meet.) Calypso is not there. Third movie: Jones cuts out his heart and gets corrupted and undead. Somehow the cursed Aztek gold treasure plays a huge role in the story, as does Barbossa. The Brethren Court binds Calypso under Jones’ guidance. Movie ends with setting up for Curse of the Black Pearl, and a cameo of Jack Sparrow meeting with Tia Dalma in her shack im the mangrove swamp.
Fitting, as Davy is basically the anti Will Turner: A person who fell in love with someone above his station, but handled his heartbreak in destructive ways.
+Draco de Anglicus they don't really listen to the logic that humans would understand; they just don't understand it as they only understand the logic that nature gives.
@@jodyrussell4969 She didn't betray Him... she describes her nature... A true love doesn't necessarily mean the presence of a beloved but a sense of connection and a sense of relation... Felt by heart.... Not by eyes... Davy Jones' heart was the only thing he never deserved to owe... That's why He removed it...
That growling "I do not love you", hitting the words... Davy Jones trying to convince himself and the universe that this is true. It's heartbreaking. Bill Nighy is a terrific actor.
I think Jones decided to trust her again after this scene. Him asking her what she'll do to her captors was his way of finding out if she knew he was the original one and that's why he looks relieved when she tells him the brethren court. He realised she doesn't know, so he wants to start afresh, without ever telling her the truth... And that's why he screams after he realised Calypso was free. In his mind, Calypso didn't know he was the one who betrayed her and thus, he felt betrayed because she didn't aid him in the battle, as promised.
“Ten years I devoted to the duty you charged me. Ten years I looked after those who died at sea. And finally when we could be together again. You. Weren’t. There” Love this quote
Deep down Davy jones still cared deeply for Tia Dalma (Calypso), even though he had lost his humanity and cut out his own heart to serve as the grim reaper of the sea. While her music box sounded perfect his sounded much different, likely from countless years of playing the music box as the only thing he had left of the woman he loved. To see her one final time and learn the truth of why she broke his heart after waiting 10 years to come to shore and be reunited with his love.
This scene is probably my favorite in the entire franchise. Davy Jones, a lonely sailor who fell in love with the sea, and paid for it in unexpected ways. When he first met and fell in love with Caplyso, she entrusted him with the task of ferrying the souls of the dead to the afterlife, and gave him The Flying Dutchman to complete his task, she swore that after 10 years, they would see each other for one day on dry land before he returned to his duty. When he returned after 10 years at sea, she was not there to greet him. Believing that Calypso had betrayed him, he turned the Pirate Bretheren Court against her and imprisoned her in human form as Tia Dalma. Later, out of despair and guilt for what he had done, Davy Jones cut out his heart and placed it in a chest (in doing so binding himself to the Flying Dutchman) Over the time he was at sea, his physical appearance changed from the sailor he once was, into what we see now. The irony here being that Davy Jones brought all of this pain onto himself, demonstrated by how Calypso briefly changed him back into his original form.
The sad part is, while Davy was serving those 10 years, Calypso WAS with him, as the waves, the seafoam and the sea itself. Once he bound her tho, that’s when she TRULY disappeared.

Yeah and in the beginning of their relationship they loved each other deeply and after they were separate for ten years after he brought the drowned souls and those who died at sea. When davy came ashore again he cut his own heart out so that he couldn't feel betrayed or heartbroken again he locked it in a chest, buried it and never went back to retrieve it ever

Hits me like a ton of bricks everytime she delivers that line. Soul crushing
I also love how she says he was never cruel. But in the second movie he says “life is cruel why shouldn’t the afterlife be any different”. Just a great way of showing that Davy Jones is not really a cruel man. His life and afterlife are so cruel it made him like this.

I heard the line "My heart will always belong to you" many times from different actors from different movies. But none can compare to how it made the audience feel when davy jones said it because it is so desperately true
Facts 💯
It works because it is both loving and his curse when in context.
And the way Bill Nighy’s voice captures the way he realises this, knowing that he loves her still, but still hates her for
what she did. Hates himself for not being able to let go, and finally realised why she did it.
He got some closure, and realised that because of his heartbroken actions against her while justified, ensured that he would never have a happy ending.
@@rustkarl That is where the movie gets it wrong (again): Love is not an emotion. If it was, this would work. But love is a choice. And so long as love is a choice - meaning, forever - one can never come into such situation where it is not possible to find a happy ending.
No man nor woman nor child can love a Goddess truly. And Davy Jones is lost. But for certain, you have to be lost to find the places can't be found; otherwise, everyone would know where it was.
Both figuratively and literally
@@sorrowandsufferin924 Personally, I disagree. Love is an emotion. If it were a choice, heartbreak would not be a thing, nor would be unrequited love.
The cruelest thing about this scene aside from the obvious emotional torment was Calypso temporarily restoring Jones' human form. He spent presumably centuries in his mutated state, long enough to at least become acclimated to it. But to have his humanity returned for those bare few seconds only to have it taken away again reminded him again of what he was... And what he lost.
Yes!
Well given his accents and localization I doubt he was transforming mutated for centuries maybe one given the way Legends and lower conversed but the modern certainly when we get to the Age of Enlightenment what is Scottish and with his Scottish accent Davy Jones couldn't have been that far removed from the land of Alba I really wish they would delve into his backstory more when he was in Scotland when did he leave what was his career how did he become a pirate what were the circumstances of his encounter with calypso I'm of the opinion that Davie Jones was akin to Jack Sparrow Will Turner Hector Barbossa Norrington all of them he was the hero until he fell in love with a goddess who is if anything other than righteous
@@TheDogGeneral if we assume the time of the dutchman and davy jones supposed timeline of the actual myths than its the early 17th century assuming the pirate movie take place circa 1750s it has been close to 150 years
@El-Silver correct correct on that arcade I mean the inclusion of King George the second in the franchise does sort of narrowing the timelines but I think the Dutchman's far older than Davy Jones given that I think Calypso already had possession of the Dutchman and merely placed in Davy Jones's charge
But said it's very one-dimensional with the characters it kind of takes me back to Darth Vader he was very one-dimensional in the first Star Wars film we have some idea of his past life before the events of the film but nothing was really hammered out until the franchise progress and was expanded but I think Davy Jones what's the crossroads of all the characters his emotional torment was so great he had to cut his heart out
Like quaritch the Avatar franchise and Vader from Star Wars Davy Jones backstory I feel like he's very compelling and rich in his own right and if they were to bring him back it would be the buku Big Daddy of the sea looking to take revenge
I’m like 666 so that’s cool
How strong is Calypso?
One touch she returned Davy Jones to his mortal form. That is power
Well she is the daughter of the Titan Atlas (or Oceanus or Nereus), a nymph of the mythical island of Ogygia and the reason why she turned into a horde of Crabs is because that's her symbol.
It’s not entirely his mortal form, after all he’s still missing his heart. Though I love the small attention to detail when they had him touch her face his fingers were in the shape of a pincer claw because his muscle memory was so used to the actual claw he had. It’s a small touch on just how long he has been in that monstrous state.
@@azazelsiad3601 nah that’s just how bill nighys hands work. He has some sort of condition I think. If you look at any other films or interviews he points with his middle finger like he does here

@@mayomaster1134 he looked like a clown lmao
I love this scene so much because Davy Jones clearly loves her quite a lot and it's very clear she loves him back but she's not a human she's a goddess specifically of the sea which is cruel and forever changing as unpredictable as it comes.
The sea can be calm and beautiful sure but it can also be violent and harsh, that's honestly what makes his final moments beautiful in a sense.
Davy Jones could never truly be with Calypso so long as he lived, in his final moments when he heard the music box and died falling into the abyss he fell into the sea he fell into calypso he'll be with her forever in the very sea itself in the end he got what he wanted.
You forget one thing, Davy's concept of being together is very different from Calypso.
your forget one thing: hes alive/has been resurrected again. the after -credits-scene of POTC 5 showed it
You forgot a third thing too: calypso found out from Will right before she returned to her Goddess form that Davy Jones was the one who betrayed her and showed the brethren court how to bind her and seal her away for so long. Now realizing the truth, the enraged Goddess Calypso refused to aid either side in the battle, and I could tell she then harbored immense hatred and loathing towards Davy Jones. Most likely looking on piteously at his death & plunder into the abyss.
@@thahoule7924 you forget one thing. Disney forgot what it was all about after this one (you could see some of it in potc4 but 5 is just for money)

The way he flinches when she says "It's my nature." gets to me.
It's like he KNEW that was the answer, knew all along. Told himself that time and again to try and wall off his love for her. But hearing HER say those words broke the flimsy wall because he has always loved her for what she is. That's why he has to turn when telling her the lie.
Tragic irony at its finest: Calypso was always with Davy, as the sea was her domain.
Nice reading of the scene
thats why he deeply regret for telling the brethren court how to bind her in human form and also the reason why he cut off his heart. he did knew the reason why she wasn't there after 10 years, calypso is the sea and oceans are unpredictable

“My heart will always belong to you.”
Literally one of the most gut wrenching lines Davy Jones ever said. The way he said it... just... ugh 💔💔💔
I love how they used different voices for Davy the Sea Devil and Davy the loving sailor. I love that they actually show the distinction. Like when Calypso temporarily reverted his form back to its original self, and he gasps for air in those short, quick breaths, as if he'd been suffocating for a long time.
And to think that even when the Sea Devil returned and was this close to choking her out, he couldn't bring himself to do it and leaves, but he still couldn't fight back his true self when he speaks what has always been true:
"My heart will always belong to you"
This makes it even more tragic that both of the Davys needed to die to be with Calypso again.
She did say that he had changed from what he was back when he was human. As she put it, he was many things but never cruel.
I like to think that when he gasped and started breathing hard it’s because he had a nose again and could breathe properly. That and all that external growths of sea critters probably was internal too. His organs started functioning normal after probably a century or more of not
@@LovingShadow that's why he cant say calypso's name all at once. He hasnt had human vocal cords in so long that its physically painful to talk.
I think a beautiful detail that when Calypso plays her locket it sounds almost perfectly in tune, because she didn't want t keep thinking about him after what he did to her, but when Davey's starts playing you don't need perfect pitch to tell that it's out of tune, and noticeably flat. I think that this is such a cool detail because you can tell that Davey has played that Music box so much that it it getting flatter and flatter, since he can't stop thinking about Calypso. The like "my heart will always belong to you" is the payoff from this little detail and I think it' such an amazing piece of development with such a simple detail.
Jones music box plays when calypso thinks about him so that would mean that she is the one who's thinking about him not the other way around
Dear god that's fucked up
It’s even sadder when you realize how hers doesn’t play as much it’s because Davy Jones has buried himself so far in his pain and anger and torment he refuses to think about her and only the damage he causes
That's an interesting way to see it, but I don't think Calypso doesn't play it because of what Jones did. Only because at this point Calypso doesn't know it was Jones who told the Brethren Court how to bind her in her mortal state. She only finds out when Will tells her after being released.
You mean after what she did to him?
Calypso and davvy need there own movie together so we can understand everything like in the movies so much of there relationship was put into just 10'ins
Brooke S. Or at least like a short film to just give us that background I completely understand
I hope this helps, though a movie would be awesome:
Calypso was a Pagan Deity (a cross between her Greek incarnation and Lovecraftian Old Ones) and Davy Jones was an ancient sea captain and mariner, maybe a pirate but probably an adventurer and prospector, charting the New World centuries before the events of the movie trilogy.
Calypso's power was a dominion over the seas, the exact level is unknown but it's implied that one of her tasks was her oversight of those who died on the Oceans and she was more than just the form we see in the movie (shape-shifting and such). Davy Jones found her in the new world (Islands, Carribean, Bermuda Triangle, fuck it if I know) and fell deeply in love with her, and her with him. It's important to remember that like most Gods in myth, she loved him a Goddess does, and maybe her ability to comprehend the emotions and expectations of Jones were different since one could argue that she is on an almost literal level IS the Seas (although she might also just be a fickle manipulative cunt if the Odyssey is anything to go by...).
This does however support the theory I've seen once or twice crop up that she was always with him in a way as he sailed and "lived" within and with her always, it also akin's Jones' almost hypnotically induced love of her with that of Sailors and their sometimes passionate (or even obsessive) love of the Ocean. It also aligns with a fair amount of Greek and European tales that all warn of the perils of dealing with the Gods and the tragedy that befalls their love due to the difference in their stations.
Romantic/Obsession relationships later, Calypso elects Jones as her champion or Agent, instilling in him great powers and binding him to both her and the seas. He gains great knowledge of the occult, access to ancient magics and an understanding of the divine (well her at least), plus effective immortality. For a decade he saw to his task and ferried those who died at sea with his ship, the Flying Dutchman, and made sure they passed into the afterlife as the natural order demanded. He did this under the condition that, after his decade of service was past, he would meet her again and they would be together forever (poor crewmen are just along for the ride at this point). He is not a squidface at this stage.
Time rolls up and she's a no-show, he probably doesn't get completely enraged and try to kill her right off the bat since she and him are linked and she has power over him (literally and emotionally) but eventually her grows very fucking bitter, and honestly, I can't really blame him. There may have been a substantial amount of time that passed between him getting ditched and him having her bound however, and it's how I always understood it. Since he can't directly "kill" or imprison her, he instead rounds up the first few pirate houses of the time period and strikes a bargain with them; in exchange for completing the ritual that will bind her in a fixed form (probably the one he met her as) and vow to never have release her, they will be blessed and have dominion over the seas. They accept and perform the ritual to bind her in a "tortured" state, for a shape-shifting goddess whose entire shtick is to ebb, flow and shift like the sea, being "still" is hell.
He keeps up his end of the bargain, technically. Without the fickle nature of Calypso, the seas are tamable and the Pirate lords of Old prosper, it's quite clear that they were far more organized and cohesive back then (given the codex) but slowly fragmented, the rules becoming "guidelines" and infighting being frequent. As the centuries pass, Jones becomes further corrupted, his physical form and spiritual essence warping into a tentacle-hentai worthy figure, and instead of safely ferrying the dead as was intended, he binds them to his increasingly twisted vessel and grows his crew, offering a way out of death for those that are dead, or dying, at sea (those poor sods that left with Jones on his voyages way back in the day). He also has a big pet octopus and cyclically can't go on land except once a decade (the anniversary of his betrayal, yikes).
Dead Men tell no tales suggests that the Dutchman actually follows a set course in its search for souls to add to it's crew (or ferry to the afterlife).
davy jones origins
Papa Nurgle I agree with the last guy, thanks for making this post
Yas! 😍
Honestly, I feel like people often misunderstand Calypso. She's not human, she's a goddess; she doesn't think like a human, she certainly doesn't act like a human - and you can't really hold her to the same human standards. Lemme explain.
Gods have all the time in the world, so, therefore, waiting ten years wouldn't be that much of a big deal for them. Hell, it probably would only feel like a passing second to them, in the grand scheme of things.
For mortals like us on the other hand, ten years is a very long time; and though Jones did become immortal through his duty to the Dutchman-- he still kept a mortal's mentality. By the tone of his voice when he confronts her, you can tell that ten years still very much feels like an eternity to him, or at least it had back then.
I personally think that these differences in time, and the understanding of it, is why their relationship failed so badly.
Since they were both now immortal, in her eyes, Calypso believed that they had all the time in the world to be together - and as previously stated, ten years to her wasn't that long anyway - so what did it matter that she wasn't available to him right then?
Well, I don't think that properly explains it.
For a better example, think of it like this: you schedule a date, but later you realize that it's not a good time and you can't make it, so you do the obvious and reschedule it to a later day - no big deal. In my speculations, that is how it was for her-- a mundane rescheduling of a promised meeting. She was going to meet him again eventually, just not on that day. And she probably thought, now that Jones wasn't bound by time, that he would understand and go about the next ten years with a smile on his face knowing she'd show up next time.
Of course, as previously stated once again, that didn't work out---Jones did not share the same mentality. He was once mortal and had only been immortal for a decade. Ten years was a lifetime to him, and her not showing up was an unforgivable act of betrayal, and that's where they fell apart.
And... that's honestly the best way I can put all of this. A final word, before I wrap things up: I'm not saying Calypso is blameless in this situation. Nor am I saying that this is Jones' fault for choosing to love a goddess such as her without seeing this outcome as a possibility. This is all just my silly speculations and theories.... and really, an attempt to get inside Calypso's confusing head.
Anyways, thanks for reading this probably unclear mess. This took me too long.
It's more like a guy who has a strict and busy work schedule, sets up a date with his girlfriend who's a "dramatic" woman that's he's still in love with. (and she knows and agrees to) he goes the extra mile booking a restaurant or something making sure it's going to be great. Later when its time he finds out he's been completely ghosted,Later he gets a text saying "My bad but you know how I am sometimes". That in term causes the guy to become completely toxic.
Going by the movie she's cruel,evil, indifferent, unpredictable and even kind/loving all at the same time it seems.
Both are at fault this was a relationship that most likely would have ended up where it did in the films. It's pretty depressing knowing Davy Jones probably hates himself because he can't help but love some entity who's incapable of loving him back the same way.
Beautifully put.

When Calypso says that she’s going to show them how cruel she can be, Davy actually sighs quietly and shakes his head, as if saying “I knew you’d say that and I really was hoping you wouldn’t.” I get the feeling he knows just how cruel she can be and knows vaguely what she’s going to do to everyone outside that cell. He’s aware that she can and probably will kill everyone out there, perhaps even considering himself too. It’s a subtle detail but a simple husbandly sigh brings more weight in this unique of a relationship
which movie is this from?
Does that also suggest that Davy Jones isn’t a heartless monster (in more than a literal sense) and doesn’t enjoy seeing countless people die? That would be kickass if they made a villain that is against such brutality, if only a little
@@wrongtime9097 Thats exactly what it means, Davy Jones was just a poor soul mourning the loss of his love.
Well, he's definitely concerned that he will be included - after all, he's the one who told the Brethren Court how to trap her in human form to begin with. That said, I think he's mostly beyond caring at this point. Life has become a burden for him.
He sighs because how cruel she can be is what he has experienced from her. And also she represents the sea ,she is the embodiment of the sea . And all sailors who have died at sea experienced how cruel the thing they loved and devoted there life too could be moments before death . All them pirates love the sea ,its there home and there wives . But if they are to die at sea from waves ,storms ,winds . Then they are to learn how cruel what they love can truly be. Same as davy did,only with a personified example .
It's nice to know that Will and Elizabeth avoided this fate. Elizabeth stayed true to Will, as he did to her. It's also a little sad because in them we see what Davy and Calypso could've been
The difference is that Elizabeth is human and Calypso is not. It would be difficult enough for a human to wait 10 years at a time but a goddess with numerous inhuman tendencies and urges is impossible.
Those vanilla pair can not be compared to Davy and Calypso
@@fighterck6241 I think this goes over people’s heads a lot in this story. A God does not think as a mortal. They maybe similar in a lot of ways but never the same. Calypso is the embodiment of the sea ever changing, unpredictable, benevolent & peaceful but also cruel & wrathful. Her and Jones could have never truly been together in his life. She may have loved him but her nature would always conflict.
Calypso is the sea. If Davy Jones realized that earlier he would have known that she gave him the gift of eternal love by binding him to a job where he would almost never be on land. When he bounded her to human form he realized that he removed her from his life and that's why he carved out his own heart. The pain of realizing that she actually was with him everyday except once every ten years instead of the other way around, and he just made it so she's never around was killing him.
@@fighterck6241 10 years isn’t that much for a god though.
You can feel the raw emotion when Calypso made Davy what he was before he corrupted himself. A man, pure of heart. Both strong and fragile at the same time, loving the one thing that gave him purpose. The sea, you can see it. How he was able to actually breath, how he can actually feel. How he missed her soothing touch
Seriously, after all those years. After all the heavy burden he has carried, slowly becoming numb to the world. Pirates of the Caribbean have always portrayed the three raw emotions of Greed ( Barbosa ), Grief ( Davy Jones ), Pride ( Blackbeard ) and Wrath ( Salazar )

So many cool things in this scene. Calypsos honesty about her nature perfectly explains why she hates Davy becoming cruel, bc that goes against HIS nature. Also, Davy didn’t just fall in love with this mortal form of calypso, he loves her for what she is: the SEA. During the maelstrom, he is the FIRST person to recognize who is the cause of the storm, and he comes alive when the storm starts. He fell in love with the capricious, beautiful and cruel sea, and the very things he loved about the sea are what broke his heart.
She literally can't help who she is. She's the sea. It's unpredictable like herself. What did he expect yet he loved her still
Takes that age old line captains have always said “I fell in love with the sea.” To a whole different level, eh?
Yeah. People don't understand she's not a person, she's a goddess. Love and hate, good and evil, loyalty and betrayal, means nothing to her. It's her nature as supernatural being.
thats why in the end, she(the sea) took him in

Notice when re reaches through the bars to touch her face at 2:12 it looks like he's forgotten how to move the individual fingers on his left hand. That's a nice little detail they added.
thats how actor bill nighy's hands are like, he has a muscular condition where he can only use 3 fingers on each hand
Yeah, it's called Dupuytren's contracture, my dad has this syndrome too, altho not as bad as Bill Nighy, but it causes his hands to be this way.
Guess that's why they directed it so only Nighy's left hand would b seen
It may be a medical condition, but it played nicely into the scene
How? He moved his thumb.
Imagine waiting ~ 250 years to finally get the answer why the love of your life wasn't there and the answer is: "It's my nature".

The sad part is he already knew.
Thats the harsh part about life. Its never about being ignorant , sometimes the answer you seek is just the word from someone you wanting to hear all along.

I love how this scene shows Davy Jones at his most vulnerable. Confronting Calypso the only person who won his heart and after she betrayed him, he cut it out so he could never feel that pain again. Such a great character.
so there is a man behind the monster
The story : he was in a ship battle, and then suddenly an enemy throw a potion at him and he became a octopus
Always a man behind the monster.
Fell Sans That is REALLY not how it goes, at least in the PotC storyline. Here, because he broke his duty Calypso gave him, a curse was set upon him and the crew that changed them into the creatures of the sea
I think that was joke.
Kristina Mihajlovic Most of the time, the monster isn't born a monster, but created from a man.
What I love about this scene is that, at least from my point of view, Davy Jones loved the "concept" of Calypso, not who and what she really was. She says it herself, this "single form". She is as much the sea and everything that makes it, as she is the mortal form she takes. Davy Jones loved her, but I think he never fully grasped just who and what she was. When she says "Cut off from all the things that I love, from you" I get the feeling that even though Davy Jones wanted to see her as a person and didn't, she was *always* with him. In the waves, the sea creatures, storms- she was there. But she's Calypso, she doesn't exist how you expect or may want. That maybe this entire time she was with him, in little ways- but never behaving the way he would want or expect. leaving Davy Jones sadly torn. In love with her, but mortal in many ways and never truly able to grasp or come to term with what Calypso was. It's the one aspect of the later films I do love, the tragic story of Calypso and Davy Jones.
There's a doctor who scene that's rather relevant here; the reunion of the the
Twelfth Doctor and his wife, River Song. To many, The Doctor is more than a extradimensional wanderer. He's a nomadic god, with the power to shape all of time and space should he wish two. River on the other hand... she's just an archeologigist from the future, merely human. Yet, she's the wife of a Time Lord One of the very, very last ones left, in fact. She loves him and he loves her, but she doesn't know that. In her mind, she is just a human and though she loves the Doctor, she feels that its not mutual. In her mind, she's just a person and he's the Doctor. When a villain attempts to lure the Doctor to them, she insists that despite being a known consort of the Doctor, the Doctor doesn't love her and never really has. In her own words, "When you love the Doctor, its like loving the stars themselves. You don't expect a sunset to admire you back."
This reflects Calypso and Davy Jones' relationship in a way. Calypso is the embodiment of the sea itself but like you said: Jones didn't understand that. He loved Calypso as one person would love another, unable to realize the nature of what exactly it was that he loved in the first place. In other words, he expected a sunset to admire him back. The story of Davy Jones and Calypso is fantastic, and as someone aspiring to be a writer, I love it. If I can one day write to this level, I will be elated.
That is *so well thought-out!*
This is beautiful I thought of it as the same way. She was literally the sea. He couldn’t understand that. She would “always” be with him. 🙏🏽
@@danykilson4950 curse you for making me... Uh... Cut onions... Yeah, that's what I was doing...
Beuatiful
One small detail that I love is Calypso's music box sounds very pristine and new, but Jones' sounds worn and used.
Probably because it was sitting in a dark ship . . . underwater . . . For ten years
This literally symbolises the power of a woman that is truly loved by a man. One touch, and Jones returned to his mortal form.
Every man is has a hard shell that only the woman he loves can pierce through. And she does it with such ease…
If you think of it. Davy Jones himself is the physical manifestation of the women he both loves and hates.
The octopus is the enemy of the crab. Octopuses kill and eat Crustaceans
Calypso as sacred symbol is the *crab*. So his hatered and heartbreak of Tia molded him into the very creature that hates her. But he's still part crab because somewhere, inside he still has love for Tia Dalma/Calypso, hence the claw/leg.
Does Disney plan it? Or make it up as they go along. Certain blew me mind!
Cpt. Jack Sparrow wow, that's so... Deep
It certainly has...Depp to it. Eh, sounded funnier in my head. But Sparrow does make a good point, never saw it that way. Jones is both Octopus and crab so he both hates and loves her?

I love the look on his face when she touches his chest - where his heart should be - and the little gasps he makes, like he got overwhelmed with emotions and breath in his lungs again. You could see it in that moment, he still knew - no matter how much he tried to deny it or feign coldness - he still loved her, dearly. With but a single touch; the feared, great, and powerful Davy Jones was but a simple man left breathless... and in love.
I think after the 2 movies after worlds end, we were spoiled by these movies. They were slammed by fans too harshly but now after watching these, the first 3 movies were so great.

Blue Diamond+ Life is cruel. Why should the afterlife be any different?
They’re both at fault to be honest. Davy attempted to make a goddess his, knowing full well the risks. She played with a man’s heart knowing full well she couldn’t be with him. That is the definition of love. Knowing the risks and the potential pains, and yet deciding that they’re worth it...
Love this interpretation. Their relationship represents what the heart wants versus the realities of life. Neither of them were able to let it go even though it damaged them.
I’m going through it right now... a long distance relationship, feeling like being severed from one of my own limb and left it half a world away. But we are both fighting to keep the fire burning.
Similar to Aragorn from Lord of the Rings who is a mortal man in love with Arwen an immortal elf.

That's not love lol thats manipulation
What's extra heart-breaking is that she still doesn't know that he betrayed her, which would be why she initially assumed he came to rescue her.
Davy Jones really kept away from her for decades out of his own guilt/anger towards her. He could've kept his secret & been with her in her human form, but nah. Couldn't face her, even if she didn't know what he'd done. So much depth for Disney characters, fr why I love this series.

You can tell once Calypso brought him back to his original form, he could feel. Truly feel, taking deep breaths for the first time in many years. So much emotion, so many feelings. It drives a man to do both great and terrible deeds. You could see it upon his face, the guilt. The pain, the love that he had for her
I like how after he said his heart will always belong to her she had a look of joy and happiness like school girl.

one of the most powerful scenes ever !!!
He still loves her 😭😭😭😭
I like this also
Like....ever!!!
I think he desperately doesn't want to love her. He wants her imprisoned forever, he speaks about her with hate and rage. Yet here he realizes that his heart will also belong to her despite what he wants. This is probably why he keeps playing their song on his piano yet is filled with rage and agony while doing it. He probably cut his heart out in Hope's it would stop him from loving her.
I think what hits hard about the first three movies is how easily you can sympathize with the antagonists of the story
0:17 I can’t be the only one who gets shivers down the spine when tia dalmas locket closes, jones starts up out of know where. Honestly I love this scene
When Davy said " my heart will always belong to you" I always hear what he choose not to say " But yours will never be mine" because when he said it, his eyes was so sad when he look back at her.
My heart will always be yours....in a soft sad voice but i have no heart
One of the most haunting yet soft moments is when Calypso is listening to her music box closes it and then Davy Jones starts playing his, chills...
A villain easily on par with Darth Vader or any classic villain. The voice, the eyes, the design, the acting, the backstory, the emotion. It's all a fucking masterpiece.
The best part of this is that Davy Jones never truly realised what Calypso gave him when she tasked him with the duty of looking after those who died at sea.
Davy Jones was a mortal man, and Calypso the goddess of the ocean itself. His life would have been perilously short, but in making him the guardian of her dead, she made him as ageless as she was.
Moreover, she granted him a life with her true form. Ten years travelling the beautiful oceans that made up her true being. He was beside her the entire time, but thought only of the woman, the human form.
She gave him the gift of an eternity with her, and he squandered it because he couldn't see it for what it was.
Well goddamn…. I’ve loved this trilogy for an age and never even thought to view their relationship through that lens.
She is a goddess whereas he is a mortal. It was always doomed to fail.
Never thought about it like that. Well-said.
Wow, that's an amazing perspective
@@brimstoneclub he was made immortal the moment he was given his duty
Davy Jones was a villain, but he also had some anti-hero tendencies. Cutler Beckett was the ultimate villain in the second and third films of Pirates of the Caribbean.
Well Beckett is main villain even Jones is more interesting and iconic. But I don't see Beckett as real villain cause he has some anti hero tendencies too plus overall he wants to destroy pirates which in real life are real villains.
Dams I agree with you in a sense: they want to kill and destroy pirates? Well for me. Trying to harm civilians or betraying comrades? Hell no.
Davy Jones is essentially Darth Vader of the POTC, where he used to be good but turned into a monster due to betrayal.
Beckett is Lord Sidious, pure evil & wants to conquer all of the sea.

Two lovers, two different visions of love.
Calypso is the sea. Davy Jones fell in love with the sea, so when he went onto the dry land looking for her after 10 years, she was no where to be found. When you think about it, Davy Jones and Calypso were together the ten years, and only separated when Davy Jones went onto dry land.
Davy Jones 100% needs his own movie where he falls in love with Calypso, and looks after those who died at sea for 10 years and then at the end of the movie we see him happily waiting for Calypso, but she doesn’t show and then we see him scream in pain as the sun sets and break down in tears. That would be the most depressing movie ever and I want- no.. I NEED TO SEE IT!
same, it would be so freaking sad, but I need it too! THAT'S what the next pirates of the Caribbean movie should be!
To be honest, Davy Jones never came across as a villain, rather than an antagonist. Sure, he has done horrible things in his life as Captain of the Flying Dutchman, but before that, he still carried out his duty ferrying the dead and was never repaid for it the way he wanted to be, hence why he became so cruel. Yet even then, he's cruel yet fair, vicious yet lawful, and let it never be said he isn't a man of his word. He's only really a 'villain' to us because Jack made a deal with him to raise the Pearl from the depths and knew the consequences of such a bargain, only to try and evade it. I feel like Davy is one of those villains who you feel a natural empathy for, rather than have the film try and force it upon you.
Don't forget how Jones bargained with Jack TWICE and each time upheld his end of the bargain (raised the Black Pearl for Jack, then gave him a 3 day buffer to collect 99 souls). Jones is technically always the more honorable man despite being the antagonist, which is fascinating and a great twist.
The great thing about this trilogy is that no one is truly a villain. Norrington is a man tasked with hunting down pirates so that the seas will remain safe for merchant traders. Barbossa is a man who only wants to feel human again, and so does whatever he can to do so. Davy Jones is a man who has been betrayed by the one thing he ever truly loved, and so reacts out of spite towards his situation. Hell, even Cutler Beckett, the one guy who actually feels like a “villain”, really isn’t. He does what he does because, as he states, it’s “just good business”.
@@etowahwillis902 I think the only true villain potc has are Salazar and Blackbeard, Salazar's motives was to take revenge on the man responsible for killing and later cursed him and he would do everything necessary to achieve it hence why he aligned himself with Barbossa and didn't kill Henry when they first meet to spread the message, whereas Blackbeard he wanted to live forever and be the strongest pirate to rule the 7 seas and he doesn't care that by wanting to live forever he's basically sucking the life out of the innocent (whether it was her daughter or some random person)
@@etowahwillis902 No Beckett is straight up evil. He's an elitist aristocrat who views those less fortunate than himself as animals. He just uses his position in the British Empire as a cover to protect himself from the concequences of his heinous acts.
It's expanded upon more in the novels but the whole reason Beckett hates pirates to such a degree is because he was once captured by pirates and put to work on their ship doing "commoners work". Jack just cemented his beliefs to a larger degree.
Beckett's a evil dude. No question about that.
Nah, he's evil.
The best lines..
"You did hide away what should have always been mine..."
"My heart will always belong to you..."
😢
I’m a little shocked I don’t see people talk about this scene more. You can just feel that they had a romance and want to be back together despite knowing how unlikely it is. The way Calypso stops her music box only for Jones to start his. The melody being the same tune he plays on his pipe organ showing how he kept her memory alive…And how normal Jones’ voice sounds when he says goodbye, almost like being near his love brought back just a small ounce of his old self.
I want a Davy Jones and Calypso film explaining their story
I would pay to see a prequel trilogy focusing these two characters. A tragic lovestory dramedy set in the PotC universe.
First movie:
Young Davy Jones. Not all unlike Will Turner, brave and brazen. A grand adventure that ultimately leads to him meeting Calypso and the movie ends with them in each other’s arm, while their foreboding tragic love theme plays.
Second movie:
A darker tone. Misfortune seems to follow our anti-hero. He’s now charged with ferrying those who die at sea. Nearly 10 years have past. Adventure revolves around Jones desperately trying to reach their designated meeting place (A beach similar to the one where Will Turner and Elisabeth Swan meet.) Calypso is not there.
Third movie:
Jones cuts out his heart and gets corrupted and undead. Somehow the cursed Aztek gold treasure plays a huge role in the story, as does Barbossa. The Brethren Court binds Calypso under Jones’ guidance. Movie ends with setting up for Curse of the Black Pearl, and a cameo of Jack Sparrow meeting with Tia Dalma in her shack im the mangrove swamp.
Fitting, as Davy is basically the anti Will Turner: A person who fell in love with someone above his station, but handled his heartbreak in destructive ways.
So basically, Davy Jones is just Anakin Skywalker/Darth Vader of the seas ... I love it.

You can just feel the anger, the frustration, the regret, the betrayal, the heartbreak, and the suffering in his voice
I will never tire of this scene...I can still feel the sadness and love, damn ❤
I think Jones decided to trust her again after this scene. Him asking her what she'll do to her captors was his way of finding out if she knew he was the original one and that's why he looks relieved when she tells him the brethren court. He realised she doesn't know, so he wants to start afresh, without ever telling her the truth...
And that's why he screams after he realised Calypso was free. In his mind, Calypso didn't know he was the one who betrayed her and thus, he felt betrayed because she didn't aid him in the battle, as promised.

And you did hide away what should always have been mine.

Love this quote
Deep down Davy jones still cared deeply for Tia Dalma (Calypso), even though he had lost his humanity and cut out his own heart to serve as the grim reaper of the sea. While her music box sounded perfect his sounded much different, likely from countless years of playing the music box as the only thing he had left of the woman he loved. To see her one final time and learn the truth of why she broke his heart after waiting 10 years to come to shore and be reunited with his love.
This scene is probably my favorite in the entire franchise. Davy Jones, a lonely sailor who fell in love with the sea, and paid for it in unexpected ways. When he first met and fell in love with Caplyso, she entrusted him with the task of ferrying the souls of the dead to the afterlife, and gave him The Flying Dutchman to complete his task, she swore that after 10 years, they would see each other for one day on dry land before he returned to his duty. When he returned after 10 years at sea, she was not there to greet him. Believing that Calypso had betrayed him, he turned the Pirate Bretheren Court against her and imprisoned her in human form as Tia Dalma. Later, out of despair and guilt for what he had done, Davy Jones cut out his heart and placed it in a chest (in doing so binding himself to the Flying Dutchman) Over the time he was at sea, his physical appearance changed from the sailor he once was, into what we see now. The irony here being that Davy Jones brought all of this pain onto himself, demonstrated by how Calypso briefly changed him back into his original form.

we can talk all day about how beautiful davy jones' and calypso's relationship is but that ending cut is god tier
The sad part is, while Davy was serving those 10 years, Calypso WAS with him, as the waves, the seafoam and the sea itself. Once he bound her tho, that’s when she TRULY disappeared.
