Trivia: Davy Jones's tentacles were inspired by a stained coffee cup. The special effects team was puzzled when they tried to figure out what the color and texture of his tentacles should be. Then they saw a used cup on the table with a coffee stain on the inside, so they scanned the stain into the computer and that's how he got his tentacles.

Trivia: The cast was clueless about what was going to happen in the bone cage. Director Gore Verbinski kept it a secret because he wanted to get their real reactions when the cage started swinging.

Continuity mistake: In the scene when Will is talking to Cutler Beckett, there is a clock behind them that is being hauled up at a very slow pace. But when the shot switches and there's a close-up on Will, the clock has disappeared. Despite the angle change, we should still be able to see the clock. There hasn't been enough time for it to have moved out of shot. (00:11:20)

Suggested correction: Actually the clock is simply out of shot. If you listen you can hear the creaking where it's still moving and if you watch the two ropes behind Will you will see they are still raising and on the post behind Beckett you can see the shadows raising too. So the clock just simply isn't in the shot.

Continuity mistake: When Jack is trying to get the handcuff off his hand at the end of the movie, he has all of his rings turned inward to make it easier to get it off. But when the shot changes into a wide shot, as he pulls off the handcuffs, all of his rings are facing the right way. (02:09:10)
