    And you might to be giving it enough. I mean it's not like some job where if you finish what you need to, you get to browse the internet and message your girlfriend on myspace.

    I disagree. Look how much time the crew of the Dutchman spent slacking off, and how much time Jones spend playing his organ. Granted, they weren't doing their jobs, but it wasn't that big a job.

    Jones stopped doing it not because it was too much work, but rather to give Calypso the bird.

    You know all those body's that they saw? Floating in the water in that limbo ocean place?

    That's what will eventually happen to those Davy Jones dosen't ferry to their final resting place. It's actually a pretty fucking big job.

    However, you are right that he stopped doing it to give Calypso the bird.

    I think the argument is that he becomes sort of a mythical figure bound to a job. I mean, is Santa Claus boozing it up the rest of the year when he's not working? Do Charon and Death head to the strip clubs on "light" days, or "work late" after a bloody battle occurs? It's not so literal.
    To use Death as an example, and Piers Anthony as a reference: Even Death gets the occasional day off to catch up with the lady friend. And not one every 10 years, either.
    The whole point of the 10 years thing is to prove faithfulness and purity during that time. That's part of the Davy Jones mythos. At least in general. I will have to watch the last two movies again before I have the details down.

    It was the Pirates version of the emo-Peter music number in SM3. Totally out of place, but refreshingly so.

    Look, the whole point of the whole POTC Davy Jones mythos is a man falling in love with a god.

    God's are immortal, never die, blah blah blah, but Davy and Calypso fell in love anyway.

    Of course, people die, so, they were both like, "Fuck, what the fuck are we gonna do".

    Calypso then has the bright idea to have him ferry the souls of the dead that die "within" her, to their final resting place.

    This job makes him immortal. However, as the main POTC theme, immortality always has a price. His was to be only capable of going ashore One day every ten years.

    Davy says "Oh fuck yes why the hell not I AM FUCKING A GOD". Ferries people for ten years, goes ashore that ONE day, and waits paitently for her. Oh hey, she dosen't show. Davy gets pissed. Attends the first ever Pirate king meeting, and tells them how to seal her in a human body. And then he says "Fuck this job" and goes collectin souls.

    People died pretty much every day at sea in the 1700's. Boats wern't worth two bags of shit then. So it was pretty much a job that he had to constantly do for eternity. That was the price he paid for immortality(And fuckin a god).

    And this brings us to a tragic element similar to Arwen/Aragorn in LOTR... that Will is immortal and his wife not. The end of that tale is for another day, I suppose, but the tidbit we got after the credits was worth a lot, particularly with the child carrying on their spirit.

    "10 years later..." We see Elizabeth with long hair and a child about 9 on a rock overlooking the beach. The child is wearing a kid's pirate outfit and playing around with a toy sword. They watch the sun rise over the ocean and we see a closeup of Elizabeth's face as it reflects a green flash. We see a ship in the ocean coming to land, then a shot of pirate Will Turner hanging off the rigging, soaring across the water with a smile on his face.
