As far as I'm aware regarding the above... ''Initially they said something about Tia Dalma, and then they said Calypso. And I wondered why Mr. Elliot and Rossio wrote a script regarding Will and Elizabeth since both Orlando and Keira stated to not return.''
 * I don't think Calypso was ever mentioned, but recall seeing Tia somewhere but that's a rumor. I'm 100% sure that Elliott and Rossio didn't write about neither Will or Elizabeth in either the fourth or fifth film...definitely since Rossio is the only one of the two still involved in the series. Besides, to me, At World's End was the perfect conclusion for the couple.
 * And I know I've said this many a time in the past, but I don't want to see either Will or Elizabeth back in the series. The only loophole I can provide, should they ever bring them back in some way, is that they end up making a POTC TV series (an idea that has been brought up in at least one conversation). Partial of the belief because of the freedom to make some more stories for the two, and of course the likelihood of (quite likely) recasting...given that at least Keira doesn't want to come back.

''(then) The proposed new script looks ok, and I see that they want to take in consideration the old idea about Barbossa's daughter. I would love to see if they keep the idea. But, so many rumors have been in the past 2 years that I'm starting to wonder if they actually have a static idea about what story would look like.''
 * Considering the fact that "Barbossa's daughter" was one of the many internet rumors for Pirates 2-3, which of course turned out to be false(for example the names Grant or Teague Sparrow were never considered). Recall Terry Rossio having also said that at no point was it ever considered that any character would have a daughter. Of course that was before P4 came out. lol

Take from it what you will. Only saying what I've learned.

I do agree that, while I did enjoy OST, I did miss the Verbinski feel on the series. Marshall did Ok, but it could've been better. For now, we can only hope that Ronning and Sandberg do a good enough job on the project. Heck, they had a potential 2015 release date but decide to delay the film for story-related reasons. Maybe that's for the good of the franchise.
