User blog comment:Clone Trooper 1000/Jolly Roger for Pirates 5? Anyone?/@comment-5120604-20110508220140

Just an idea: Jack is searching for El Dorado, the City of Gold. I don't like the idea of Jack and Barbossa competing for the same treasure AGAIN! but to see them be civil would be "friends again" would be inappropiate.

I think the French or Spanish Navy should go after them this time (Give poor England a break, seeing that Norrington's gone). But we do need a more piratey villian. Why not Long John Silver?

If you read the prequel to Treasure Island, it says that Silver and his "friend" Captain Flint parted ways in 1750. So in Pirates 5, Silver needs to regain the fortune Flint stole from him. With a rag-tag crew but no ship, he makes Jack take him to El Dorado. Trying to escape from the Spanish and Flint (now a vodun magican) at every turn, Jack worries if Sliver himself plans to muintiy against him or not.

The movie would take place before the events of Treasure Island. I could picture Barbossa and Silver swapping stories of their lost legs.
