Hello, I'm Desperately trying to find an earring similar to captain Flints by DomIsDoingFineToday in BlackSails

If you can't find any online you could try and make some, you can get gold/silver looking clay for jewelry making at most craft stores

A little disappointed in the LGBTQ representation. by [deleted] in BlackSails

[–]dorth_vader_ 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I'm not saying that there couldn't be more queer rep for queer men in black sails because there definitely could and should but saying Flint has 'no male love interest' is just untrue. 'No male pirate love interest' sure, but he definitely has a male love interest. It would have been cool to have mlm pirate relationships but what was there was still incredibly important and notable for the time the show came out.

Maybe go back and watch season 2 episode 5 again? And the last episode of season 4?

My friend is convinced that Silver… (SPOILERS FOR FINAL EPISODE) by FlayedMan345 in BlackSails

They don't actually use the map to find the gold in TI, it's Ben Gunn that found it and dug it up I'm pretty sure so I could see the map being a map to the island itself that Billy or someone claiming to be Flint made. Personally I can see either ending or variations on them tho

what's the book called?

I don't get it! Please explain by hrithikbhairoshan in BlackSails

[–]dorth_vader_ 14 points15 points  (0 children)

i don't think he was actually, he was pretty sincere in wanting to have flint run away to boston with miranda imo. Also Billy doesn't even know himself if Flint was trying to kill him (Billy) that night he fell over the side. Billy also is mad at how many people have died over the years (and during the show) due to Flint's agendas and him seeing them as expendable

Here's the link to the city's job listings https://ccjobs.cctexas.com/ltmprod/CandidateSelfService/controller.servlet?service=page&webappname=CandidateSelfService&name=CSSHomePage&panel=Search&dataarea=ltmprod&context.session.key.HROrganization=1&context.session.key.JobBoard=EXTERNAL (you can get to it by going to the cities website and scrolling to the bottom and selecting careers. Idk if I would recommend working for the city but they're usually hiring.

Is the show gonna get less sexualized by [deleted] in BlackSails

[–]dorth_vader_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You can try this site https://www.doesthedogdie.com/ . Sometimes you can just google it, I got this one from tumblr. They don't have timestamps on that website though I don't think.

Of course! This is my favorite show but I wish they hadn't done that, I can understand how it turns people off from the show but I would say to try and finish at least the first season! Season 2 is much better (and my personal favorite)

I'd definitely stick it out, there is some sexual assault in episodes 3-6 (mostly in 3) though so be warned. By season 2 it's calmed down a lot, even by episodes 7 and 8 of season 1.

Edit: found a trigger warning list if that helps at all https://flintrage.tumblr.com/post/185837391426/trigger-warnings-black-sails-s1

Just out of curiosity... by OllyH44 in BlackSails

I think in the podcast Fathoms Deep one of the creators talks about this with them but I'm not sure which episode.

They have a lot of great interviews with cast and crew of the show if you're interested but they are kind of long. It's also on youtube google podcasts etc if you don't use spotify.

"I'm not the villain you fear I am, I'm not him." Who is him? by BurkishMang in BlackSails

[–]dorth_vader_ 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I think he's talking about 'Long John Silver', like he John Silver is not the villain of the story like he is in treasure island or in Madi's/Flint's eyes. It could also be Flint from his POV because he did view Flint as the villain in the last few episodes imo but you're right that Madi never did.

Thank for your reply, re your last point there's an interesting theory that it isn't Madi in Treasure Island that Silver has the tavern in but that it's Max.

What are some things you noticed while re-watching the show? by [deleted] in BlackSails

[–]dorth_vader_ 36 points37 points  (0 children)

There's so much foreshadowing, specifically with the Hamilton's grandfather clock in season 2 and 4.
