I was definitely concerned about Will as far back as April when I read the list of upcoming characters in Zizzle's action figure line for the movie (one of them was listed as "Will Turner (Flying Dutchman Captain)"), but I kinda like how they ended up handling it in the movie. Yes, he's separated from Elizabeth, but at least only for ten years at a time. And now he can do the job that Jones should have been doing instead of being all "Oh poor me, I'm heartbroken, angst angst angst...", which apparently means that Will won't end up all tentacle-y (that was something that especially worried me).

Of course, now Elizabeth is stuck with looking after his heart. Romantic, I'm sure, but where's she going to put that chest? Although I suppose it would make a great conversation piece...
