Admiral 8Q Posted March 10, 2016 Author Posted March 10, 2016 (edited) dumbest scene of the entire series.... 2 frigates somehow destroy the victory with 1 broadside.... okay I know. Seriously, why didn't they open fire? Hmm. Either that captain is stupid or an idiot, but probably both, you don't sail into an obvious ambush. Makes good Hollywood movies though.

Capt. Rice Posted March 10, 2016 Posted March 10, 2016 (edited) it was a ruse the captain was under crewing and had to still reload that victory that was made of fir..... Edited March 10, 2016 by Capt. Rice 2

maturin Posted March 10, 2016 Posted March 10, 2016 dumbest scene of the entire series.... 2 frigates somehow destroy the victory with 1 broadside.... okay Not HMS Victory, unless Victory had a kid whose mother drank a lot in the third trimester. It always cracks me up in these movies how the Royal Navy ships are crewed almost entirely by redcoats. Because the British have to be effete elitists from the officer corps all the way down through the ranks, and only the pirates can be ruggedly handsome authentic salt-of-the-sea types. 1
