Interesting. Learning new bits and pieces that get you a little excited; like the look of Salazar is particularly intriguing. The backstory between Salazar and Jack makes me wonder if this takes place 10 years prior to CotBP (when Jack had no ship or anything, as the backstory implies) or maybe they're attempting to make the prequel Jack Sparrow novels part of film canon...depending on if the "young Jack" actor is true. Carina Smyth and her role also makes me curious&mdash;"and also to help her unlock some personal mystery about who she is and where she comes from"&mdash;and my questions (in bold) are just that!
