Reboot Ideas and How to Fix it.

The first one is the best one out of all them. 

Now we all love Pirates of the Caribbean despite some of its films not being well received. Now there have been talks of a sixth film with or without Johnny Depp and there are rumours that suggest the next film will be a reboot with Karen Gillain as the main lead.

 Now as much I love Karen Gillian there are many who worried that if they do a female lead she could be like Rey, were she's better than Jack, she's always right,  and she talks down to Jack. Like thats not what we want to see in a protagonist we want an actual good lead who makes mistakes, Who's relatable, and isn't always right. I think a female protagonist in a Pirates film could work if its done right like I love Karen Gillian and I think she would be great as a lead in these films but I want her character to be well written. There is talk of Jack Sparrow being in the next film and it would be a send off for him and it will be a passing of the torch. 

After everything that has happen to Johnny he needs a win and like Iron Man and Logan, Jack Sparrow needs a great send off.

Now there is the idea Disney is going to make spin offs and like Karen Gillain's Pirates film will be in the same universe but has separate story arc that may or may not connect to the main films. Pirates 6 could just be about Jack, Will, and Elizabeth again which we need to have and unlike that last one they can't waste any opportunities on that. I do have problems with Pirates 4 and 5 but I'm hoping 6 will make it up and give the characters we have grown to love over the years are given with a proper send offs and get one last epic adventure.  

Here are my ideas on how they can reboot the series and what they should do with the series but also giving Jack Sparrow a proper send off. 

Make a two TV Series one live action and one animated.

Now this one thing I think Disney needs to do is make a tv series of Pirates of the Caribbean. I would suggest they make one live action series with a new protagonist and whole new cast. As well I would look at the Mandorian and Black Sails for inspiration for a tv series and it needs a good Show runner. The series should focus on different parts of the world we haven't seen yet and maybe have references or mentions of Jack Sparrow or Barbossa. I would have the series set after the events of Pirates of the Caribbean films or maybe its set before the films. A live action tv series would be a big help it would be fresh and new as well again, look at Mandorian because it has saved Star Wars right now and Black Sails would be a big help but it would have to be the more PG 13 rated Black Sails.

Now for the animated one I would make it a kids show thats fun, full of adventure, funny, and is full of mystery. I would look at Gravity Falls and Ducktales for ideas for an animated series of Pirates of the Caribbean. I would have the animated series follow a younger Jack Sparrow as teenager going on adventures because there is a book series about a young Jack Sparrow that could work as a kids show.   

The animated one is more for kids and the live action would appeal more to adults. The animated could get kids of this generation into this series and the live action could be for the older fans of the series since 2003. 

Still make the Karen Gillain's Pirates film but make its own thing. 

I love Karen Gillain she's awesome I even met her once at Fan Expo.

I would't mind seeing her be the lead in a Pirates of Caribbean Reboot. I just want the film to be good and something thats not forced down our throats or full of identity politics. I just want her character to be interesting and fun to see on screen. Like if they want to retire Jack what they need to do is gave him a proper send off and if you want follow Karen's character next you have to make her interesting and fun as well we don't want her being better than Jack, we want to see what's she good at and how is she different from Jack. We want her to be a good character but we don't want her to be like Rey or Michael. If this film happens it needs to be its own thing, it can be in the same universe but let's see this character go to places we haven't gone before, let's see her face dangers were she might die, she's got be funny, adventurist, making mistakes but making it right, and let's not make her a copy of Jack let's make her own thing. Not better or worse just her own character that is different from Jack but just as likeable as him.

You know Redhead from the ride.

As well I heard she might be playing Redhead and that be a fitting name for her character and one of her trade marks is she is one of the best gun shooters in the Caribbean. 

Give Jack, Will, and Elizabeth a proper send off in the sixth film.

Now we love these three characters very much they are part of our childhood. Jack we love because he's funny, weird, and so likeable. Will is the hero we want to be, someone we can relate too, and always tries to save his family, Elizabeth is a strong female lead because she wants to explore, fight, and be a pirate which she does and she becomes King of Pirates. For the sixth film you have to give these characters a great send off because these actors likely want to move on from the series. What the sixth film needs to do is it has to focus on those three characters one last time and give them all proper send offs like they should look at Avengers Endgame for inspiration. I will admit Geoffery Rush's send off in Dead Men Tell No Tales was really good.  Like in the end he dies a hero and tells his daughter he loves her. We need something like that for these three characters give them a great send off that will leave us in tears and make us happy too. Like if they want to kill off Jack but he dies a hero and becomes a legendary pirate that would work. If you want to have Will and Elizabeth live a peaceful life away from Pirates that would work too. Like those type of send offs is what we need.

 Gibbs needs a good send off as well.

Gibb's has been part of this series for a long time too and he's become a fan favourite in the franchise.

Give Gibbs a good send off too like maybe he becomes a Captain of his own ship and crew. 

Or he retires from sailing and writes a book about Jack Sparrow and The Black Pearl and he calls it

Pirates of the Caribbean.

Maybe Continue the series but focus on the children of Will, Elizabeth, Barbossa, and Jack if he has any children. 

Now this is another idea after you retire Jack, Will, and Elizabeth maybe focus on the children of the characters. I think that could work like focus on the children of these characters we were interduce to Will and Elizabeth's son Henry and Barbossa's daughter Carina. As well they could do a movie that could focus on Jack Sparrow's kid like his son or daughter too. It depends though if they give Jack a kid or not in the next film or Karen's character is Jack's kid.  Besides the fifth film ended with Henry and Carina kissing likely we could see series with them as main leads going on adventures on the high seas and maybe Henry forms his own crew or he is captain of the Black Pearl now. There are so many ideas where this franchise could go to with new characters and respecting the old characters too.

Most of all just give us something new and get good directors, and writers behind it.

Truth is we just want these films to be good like I mean if Transformers can go from box office hit with negative reviews to something that actually focuses on character development and story like Bumblebee did, theres hope for Pirates of the Caribbean too. We just want to see this franchise to be good and entertaining we loved the first three films but forth and fifth were let downs. This franchise has so much potential to be something great and we need to see this franchise get better.

Now look at the Transformers films all they were box office hits with terrible stories and bad writers. Michael Bay was to blame mostly for that but now we got a good transformers last year and that was Bumblebee. Bumblebee had characters and story that is now setting up a much better Transformers Cinematic Universe. Pirates needs to have a good director, good writers, and most of all a good story that is entertaining to watch.  

So that's my Reboot Ideas for the Pirates of the Caribbean I feel like this franchise really needs to get back on it feet. This series shouldn't die on a whimper or be forgotten like there is so much more they can do with it. I really hope the Disney give series a proper send off to Captain Jack Sparrow and interduce new characters that will be just as great as Jack Sparrow, Will Turner, and Elizabeth Swan were.
