User blog comment:J Fan/QAR Flag in On Stranger Tides/@comment-4820551-20120810211907

Ahoy there JFan! I personally be thinking that Barbossa will still keep the 'Jack Rackham type' Jolly Roger because of....the old Pirate rule saying: My Jolly Roger is my Jolly Roger. Even if you kill me, you still have to get your own. No pirate can copy another pirate's Jolly Roger.'

The deleted scene really shows this. Barbossa brings down Blackbeard's flag, and raises his own. It's a truly symbolic scene.

Personally, I think that was just a movie mistake, or they didn't bother changing it, because they think that the viewers wouldn't really notice. But they were wrong. I noticed that as well.

Anyway, so that's my idea. I'm hoping to see Barbossa's Jolly Roger in Pirates 5 (and not just on the Pearl). But if I don't, well lets just say Jerry Bruckheimer may be getting an extremely long letter. Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha!
