Any books about the world losing its sense of mystery and wonder? It was a theme in many of CS Lewis' books.

Is this from the first movie? It's insane how the first one was so fucking good and the other ones were not

No that's the third movie. The second and third movies were not as good as the first but they were still good imo. Then the director left and the later ones may as well be a different series.

J.Depp himself said he based Sparrows behaviour after seeing how cartoons behaved.

What they cut out of the movies was the more dramatic backstory of Sparrow, so I agree with the take that Sparrows character to a hit and became the Jar Jar Binks of the franchise.

Tolkien's novels, the Silver Key by Lovecraft was weirdly philosophical on this as well

before this scene he wasn't convinced to team up yet, then he sees the cursed sea monster dead and killed by the company, making the company's authoritarianism and soullessness seem inescapable and more evil.

I wonder if there's any particular reason CS Lewis thought this was happening. Shame we'll never know
