'Big snag. Its from the 4th film which blows their timeline.' They should consider UPDATING the storyline. Not really. If we followed the life of the POTC version of Blackbeard, it is logical that the he'd sail the QAR for the next twenty years. Though there are some concerns about his death, I'd follow the words of Terry Rossio himself... "Blackbeard's history is definitely a legend, and like most legends, may or may not have a basis in fact."

So I'd probably agree in saying that the ambiguous POTCO takes place between 1-2, as there is evidence, such as Jack still wearing his piece of eight and Barbossa having two legs above all others(including that the Black Pearl is still sailable). Having said all that, changing the timeline would be a snag, rather than adding something as non-contradicting as the QAR. Just putting in my say with what we have.

The only way (I think) stories should be updated to OST is if they decide to make a completely new storyline...like make the "fight with Jolly Roger" one story and make another story post-Pirates 1-3, and maybe 4. Just my opinion.
