These questions relate to the internal, in-context logic of the ride, and I realize that there may be no answers to them.
- I realize it's a gag - and a funny one at that - but how has the wine the skeleton is "drinking" managed to stay flowing for so many years? Is it part of the curse? (Like I assume the later "storm" effect is)
- (I think this is still there since the Jack Sparrow remodel). At one point in the cave, there's a patch of what appears to be blue sky showing through, in which the clouds subtly coalesce into a skull and crossbones pattern. I just wondered if that's supposed to actually be the sky, showing through a hole in the cave (in which case, why is it daytime when it was dusk in the bayou?) or if it's supposed to be something else.
- Presumably, the ship's cannons are aimed at the fort, and the fort's, at the ship. So how do they both keep missing each other and hitting the water in between instead? (Once again, I realize that this is so the "explosions" in the water can come close to our ship, giving us a sense of peril and adventure).
- Can the pirates "see" us? Are they just too busy sacking the village and looking for Captain Jack Sparrow - or perhaps too drunk - to notice us? Or are we like Scrooge in A Christmas Carol, merely passing through "shadows" of things that once were (and, as such, in much less danger than the Jolly Roger skull and Davy Jones would have us believe) ?
