There was a scene at the end of the credits? Damnit! I knew we should have waited!

Beyond that the ending had me roaring. Friggin hysterical. Can't say I was all that pleased with the triangle, but it seemed more to me a string of manipulation between the 3 of them, which in the end probably bothers me less than an actual triangle there.

I'm not saying it was perfectly done, it was just better emphasized than in the first one. Hehe, yeah at the end of the credits theres a short little scene but it's absolutely hilarious. Why didn't you wait, I mean it's not like the first one didn't have a secret ending also.

I went with my family that night, there wasn't anything better to do. They decreed that it was time to leave, and were convinced for no reason that there was nothing after the credits. Actually, the first one having something after the credits is news to me too...

And there was supposed to be an actual triangle in the first one? My displeasure isn't in how it was done, but the fact that it existed. I'm not a fan of triangles.

Well I'm not a fan of them as an overused kind of thing, but when they play out well within the terms of the story I can appreciate it. Yes there was a scene after the end of the credits of the first one too, the monkey, Jack, takes a piece of gold out of the cursed chest of Cortez and becomes undead again (hence why he was an undead monkey still in Dead Man's Chest). As for the triangle in the first one, it was very lightly hinted at, Elizabeth had romanticized pirates and Jack Sparrow was one whom she sort of admired as well (though meeting him threw away some of her delusions), as I said, it was hinted at, Jack even played around at the end telling Elizabeth, "It never would have worked between us."
