r/BlackSails

I know everyone talks about the cast of Black Sails, but why is Zach McGowan as Captain Vane never in the conversation when people discuss the hottest men in Hollywood?

I am not even talking about the scenes where his impressive endowment is on display. I mean the whole package: the face, the expressions, the voice, the physique, and the sheer screen presence. Add in the acting, and he absolutely steals every scene he is in. For me, he is genuinely one of the most attractive actors in Hollywood, yet I almost never see his name brought up. Am I the only one who thinks he is criminally underrated?

Towards the end of season one, Billy is voted in as Quartermaster. Then in season 2, he returns but later in the season, we see Mr. Scott as quartermaster. Why wouldn't Billy be quartermaster on his return? I'm not sure I missed how Mr. Scott got the job.

Just finished Black Sails, and it is honestly the greatest piece of fiction I’ve ever seen

In your opinion guys, who had the greatest character conclusion in Black Sails?

When something is a flashback, dream or vision, the image is desaturated with sharp lighting. Much of the color was leached out. It seemed to me that when they did Flint’s ending, with the VO of Silver recounting it to Madi, it was somewhat desaturated, with quite a bit of white, especially in the costume choices.
And the previous episode they had extensive flashbacks of Flint and Silver doing sword training, as if to remind us of the effect.
Of course, we know from Treasure Island that the rum took Flint in Savannah, so he’s in the right region.
None of the other endings had that effect, they were in regular lighting.
Do you think the show was trying to create ambiguity there? Or were they just portraying the harsh Georgia sun.

at first i was in search of the series that would be kinda similar to “our flag means death”, i found “Black Sails” and started to watch this series, it was about two years ago, but then i quickly neglected it in the middle of the second season ‘cause i was short of time, now i renew the watching and HOLY SHIT the last episode of the second season had me on the edge of my seat. The events and actions were so fast that i didn’t manage to catch the aims of the characters, but then i did, actually, i just want to say that this series is a real ABSOLUTE CINEMA

i also can’t stop to scroll my Tik Tok watching fan edits, even if they contain some spoilers, what is a big mystery for me, because i hate spoilers in all their ways. Moreover I saw that there would be more new characters in the next seasons, so i can’t wait for the further watching!

Is the art work

So Max warns Eleanor about the rumors about her and Woodes. She warns that those rumors will undermine Woodes and force him to push her out. So she goes and seduces Woodes. But from pragmatic beginnings she seems to have actually fallen for him. I am only half way through S4. Is this genuine or is it just confused pragmatism since he’s her only way out of all of this?

Why why why did it take me so long to get to it?

I started it a while back but then stopped, it was a bit slow at the start. After a few months I got back to it, played it in the background whilst I did stuff. And I got hooked.

There is so much character developments, stories got deeper, better. I thought the ending to be on point.

I'm ready to start it again already.
