I couldn't help it, the second that I saw J/E's interaction in CotBP, I was all a flutter with the possibility of the two of them. I just never really cared too much for the character Will or the idea of W/E. I know most people that ship W/E on my f-list, but there's only a few of the J/E shippers I have. By the time DMC came along, it just proved everything that I had seen in CotBP. *g*
See, it's kind of funny b/c when I went to see DMC - I was also at the movies with a friend who ships/enjoys W/E and the whole group of us - there were more than just myself and her, ended up getting into a discussion of who we thought were going to end up together or who belongs together (our personal preference) in the next movie, which was AWE and I was all for Jack/Elizabeth and she was just like - nope and the whole discussion left me feeling jaded. I hated the way she ended up making me feel guilty for having a difference of opinion and when I tried to point out valid things that made J/E come alive in my head, it was like she was deliberately trying to shoot down what I was saying and argue with me. Finally I was like, whatever. &rolls eyes.
That's the only thing I don't like about W/E shippers, because they have this way of making the J/E shippers feeling invalid and we're not. There's actually proof there...it's not our fault that THEY can't see it. lol.
And I happen to agree with your theory. You won't find me arguing with you, lol. There were so many J/E stuff that was cut from AWE, that it wasn't even funny. And I highly doubt that if W/E hadn't been facing imminent death - they would NOT have gotten married. re: DMC! ;)
