as much as i loved this film, i always think the ending was a bit abrupt, dont you? and i know the film/mini-series thing was already really long, but we didnt reallt find out what happened at the end!
any suggestions on who stayed on the island and what happened to pickles and the albatross?

Ahh, an ending like this is the stuff of fanfictions! *lol* But yeah, it did finish with a few loose ends around, didn't it?
I often wonder what went on afterwards, myself. I think the filmmakers were focusing on the important "the family is back together again and all is well" kind of deal and leaving the rest to chance. Or maybe its left that way in case they want to revisit it later?
I'd like to think that Pickles and the crew got away - lived to fight another day. y'know? I'm really fond of Pickles. He's my third fave character after Jacob and Blunt - are you seeing a piratey-trend here? *lol* I'd hate to think the British Navy got hold of him, Roberts and the others and... well, shall we say stretched their necks.
Hmm, it makes you wonder, too, how would Jacob be able to fit back in with his family after some of the things he'll have seen and done over his seven years as a privateer? It'd be very difficult for him. Endymion.

I always ponder this too after watching it. That last thing that you point out Endymion, about how would Jacob fit in after some of the things he's seen and done as a pirate is probably the thing that I wonder the most about. Is there some fanfiction out there for Stranded? I think I'll go google that, cuz I'd love to read something that continues that storyline.
BTW, I just ordered Stranded on Amazon last night, and I'm soooooo excited to get it. I am awaiting its arrival eagerly!

I don't blame you for being excited! *lol* I'm such a fan that I've even considered buying a second copy (my original one is on Region 4 - Australia and New Zealand - but that makes it easier not to lend it out, y'know?) on Region 2 so I can try to coax more people onto watching it and maybe becoming fans.
As for Stranded Fanfics, I've not found a single one out there. And I've looked, believe me! *lol* So, with that in mind, I made a lil section so we can post our own fanfics, or just lil character scenes and things like that. I'm in the middle writing my own, but generally, my fictions never get finished. But I will try my best to get the ball rolling. Hmm, I might just type up what I have and see where it leads...Hehe! Endymion.

Hey Random, you might think you suck at writing, but you'll probably be brilliant to the rest of us, hunny. Why not give us a try? I promise we'll be gentle with ya.
Just a thought. It doesn't even have to be fanfics in that section. If I made it a fan-works, you could create poetry, pictures or whatever you feel like, eh?
Or perhaps you can think of something better? All suggestions welcome. Has your DVD arrived yet? *lol* How crazy is that? I'm getting impatient for you! Endymion.
