I watched the original star wars trilogy this weekend ( Mrs EM hadnt seen it and this was just not on ) and the more I watched it the more I realised how much of it was ripped off by POTC.

Turner - Simple blacksmith with a destiny
Luke - Simple farmer with a destiny

Elizabeth - Governers daughter who needs rescuing
Leia - Princess who needs rescuing

Jack - Adventuring rogue, selfish and mercenary
Han - Adventuring Rogue, selfish and mercenary

Hell this movie even starts with them all off the rescue Jack - remind me how did Return of the jedi Start again?
Oh come on, that's the oldest story in the book. It's been ripped off time and time and time and time and time again.

Also, I thought what happened to Will was fucked up until I read more and actually understood it. In the end he does his duty and becomes mortal again to be with Elizabeth so it all turns out fine and dandy anyway.
