One you say ? Not to nitpick, but I count THREE in the last 2 years alone.

Not that I'm a big fan of whining hollywood liberals, but I'm sure your stinging criticism has just devastated the poor guy. DEVASTATED

What are the other two? I can only think of Pirates of the Carribean.

Depp is one of the best actors in the world, may be THE best. Watch Edward Scissorhands, Donnie Brasco, Ed Wood, Legend of Sleepy Hollow, Pirates, Finding Neverland... the guy's a genius.

He's also a whiny delusional liberal crybaby, so don't count on him not continuing to whine once he gets back over here. It's what crybabies do.

Depp is not one of the best actors in the world.

Stop it now. Snap out of it.

He was good in Secret Window.

Yes he was.

Is itjust me, or does it seem like he's another in the 'thousand mile stare' school of acting?

My wife and pre-teen daughter giggle like a pair of sorority girls everytime Depp's name is mentioned. Their eyes light up and they bump into walls while waiting to see one of his films.

It is a cross that I must bear.

Btw, how about a link to the story, Ace?

Smiling at a woman as he got Little Elvis ready for Vegas, if you know what I mean. But Europeans -- determined to prove how jaded and filled with ennui they are (ennui is a French word meaning "envy, venom, and bullshit")

I just had to copy and paste this here. lol!

At least we won't have to hear him whining about how violent America is, or how we're such bastards about our racial inequalities.

Not only will we still have to hear it, we will have to hear it often. Bleh. I refuse to see his and the other asshat's movies.

Okay, I have to ask this:

Ace, what character does your penis dress up as when he is putting on a big performance? Or, was the Elvis reference a dead give away?

the 'thousand mile stare' school of acting?

That's not "method" per se, that's the years of hard drugs and Hollywood lifestyle.

OhHo! Scared of the hoi-poloi are we Johnny?
Why don't you try Switzerland? On no wait, everyone there has assault rifles in their closets.

My wife and pre-teen daughter giggle like a pair of sorority girls

Over Johnny Depp?? He's kind of ferret-looking and effeminate for a heartthrob.
What you need to do is rent some Hugh Jackman films. Set their feet on the righteous path.

Kissing Johnny Depp wd be like kissing an ashtray. And don't tell me you men haven't thought about it.

lauraw:

I'm perfectly happy to let them swoon over the androgenous one. He makes me look positively butch by comparison.

He was good in From Hell. And I can't abide the man.

He didn't say he was coming back, though. I don't know how much property he owns, but he's got one house in England f'sure. And if I recall correctly, after making some mildly anti-Bush remarks in Germany in the runup to the election, he caught himself up and kind of apologized. Or at least backtracked. In other words, whiny lib with the occasional good instinct to stick a sock in it.

Either that, or it was a business decision. That's okay, too.

There are actors I won't watch because of their politics. (Sean Penn, George Clooney)

What I resent is that these guys get a pass. They get to state their position, but they never have to answer for it, defend it, justify it or debate it.

They have all the best of it. Live in the best places and never bear the consequeces of the policies they advocate for the rest of us.

Jane Fonda has never even considered the millions of people slaughtered by the Khmir Rouge. The killing fields happened because the US left Vietnam.

Well, she helped in the slaughter as did the rest of the antiwar movement.

OT: But the leftist NYT has hit yet another new low! They are now blatently Iran's apologists, printing full page ads defending Iran's nuclear ambitions.

This is nuclear powered self loathing. Aside from everything else, the NYT staff is about 80% Jewish. They can only expect the warmest treatment from their Iranian heroes. Soft as a bucket of shit.

The dominant idiot gene has drained the pool completely.

The link didn't work for me, but I get the picture. It's not as if defending totalitarian enemies of the US is new tothe NYT. Still, it's a little serendipidous that I happened to be watching a documentary on Iran courtesy of "ashter" at Omar's Iraq The Model when you mentioned it. Not exactly upbeat.

Penn, Clooney and Depp are all ass clowns.

Having said that, They are all fine actors who I enjoy watching..
Clooney was really good in "Dusk til Dawn" and "Brother where Art Thou"/
Depp was good in From Hell (underrated movie), Edward Scissorhands, and Donnie Brasco.
Penn is one of the best actors of the last 20 years. His performance in "Carlito's Way" alone is hall of fame tasty.

But all actors do is pretend to be someone else. Say someone else's words. Act like they are still in the Jr. High paly.

Just STFU and do a couple of f*ckin steps for us, will ya Spider?

Thanks for the hat tip, NOT

Loose Shit

So much for his internal paridise of france and his putrid movie CHARLY AND THE CHOCOLATE FACTORY
