I was reading on another thread about some of the face characters riding some of the attractions and it made me wonder why there isn't someone doing a Jack Sparrow character in New Orleans Square?
Is it because he's too new or maybe because no one can quite capture the Johnny Depp characterization?
I don't recall too many characters in that part of DL and I feel it would be a nice addition there.
Any thoughts?

My only one would be, not really knowing exactly who Jack Sparrow is *I imagine the creapy looking white faced Nightmare guy* that if he was wandering the area he would probably scare most of the kids there. At least, the little ones.

Jack Sparrow is the Pirate that Jonny Depp plays in Pirates of the Carribean

Yeah, some pirates wandering around would be great, even if there wasn't a Jack Sparrow, maybe they could base them on characters from the ride.

The face characters need to be based upon cartoon images and not real life faces. How many ladies would be swooning over a Johnny Depp look-a-like? More than you can imagine. USH does the celebrity look-a-likes in their most famous roles. DLR does cartoon look-a-likes. Well, with the exception of a very few group of face characters like Mary Poppins and Bert. I don't know why those chose to have these two represented and not others.

Well, I suppose if Frontierland can have a wandering fiddle playing cowboy, NOS could have some sort of pirate presence...If you ever saw the footage of the day Pirates opened (It's on the PoTC: Curse of the Black Pearl DVD), for the press and such, they actually had a bunch of pirate characters maraud about for the cameras.

It was amusing to watch, because the Pirates were so wonderfully un-PC, stealing wenches and cracking open casks of alky-hol and such...

Maybe you could 'commandeer' the ship that someone saw popping out the top of one of the buildings at NOS?
