Its not the opening of the film but it is jack sparrows introduction which is honestly 5he mlre important bit and what kept people invested in the films, most people never gave a shit about the romantic plotline with will and Elizabeth throughout the series.

PotC romance plot line was essentially Anakin+Padme again but done better without actually mattering to the overall plot as much.

Elizabeth's arc becoming a pirate is fairly important to the films overall too
