What Johnny Depp Thinks About on His Way to a Meeting

What Johnny Depp Thinks About on His Way to a Meeting

They’re gonna make me do the accent. Or maybe a few lines. They’ll probably enunciate captain when I walk in the door. Everyone will chuckle. The associate producers will guffaw a little too loudly. Showing off that they’re ready for the sucking up part of being an executive. Annoying.

They’ll ask me if I'm willing to change my hair style but not in the Willy Wonka way and wasn’t that some movie? And don’t I love working with Tim? Blah, blah, blah. Nobody will ask me about Vanessa or the kids. Jeez. They could at least ask after my family. I’m only doing this for my family. I love my family.

I’m tired.

I hope this is a quick read-through. I did tell them that I have some voice-overs for Alice to do at noon…didn’t I? Shoot. Did I? Think, think, think. Did I?

Oh no. This better not be another pitch to remake 21 Jump Street . That ship has sailed…SO sailed. Jeez. Who thinks that’s a good idea? Forty year old women? The DeLuise family? It’s shite. Why do I say shite? Did I live in Europe too long? That’s mee captain accent ripping through again, heh.

Should I do another film with Tim? I’m not sure if I have it left in me to deal with him again. Maybe this film will be my last. I’ll stay home and hang with the kids while Vanessa goes on tour. I could tend to the garden instead. Did I just say tend to the garden? Damn Europe. Shoot, I should have taken the Two and a Half Men gig. Steady work. Normal hours. Jon Cryer sets up the joke and SLAM, I nail it and then go home at a decent hour.

Jeez, the guard’s gonna want to see the parking pass. Where is it? Stupid tiny glove compartment. Where’s that pass? Crap! Maybe I’ll just tell the dude that Captain Jack Sparrow is here to see Steven Spielberg. That’ll get a gate to open.

I’m so dang tired.

Aarrggh.

LOVED Gilbert Grape. It was brilliant, Publius.

That's what made me fall in love with Monsieur Depp. I can do w/o the heavy-eyelinered pirate flick star turns. He's a terrific character actor when he gets that kind of role. So what else are you wrong about? (don't tell me--I already know!)

yeah

That was the same guy. He also was partying with River the night he died. So yeah he's a female product but I do kinda like his acting. Don't hate the playa, hate the game! Visit my homepage here

Sorry to crash the Johnny

Sorry to crash the Johnny Depp love-fest, but I don't see why this guy is such a big deal. Isn't he the same guy that said the United States is like a "dumb puppy" and a "broken toy" - while he was at his home in France? In all honesty, the last movie I saw that he was in was What's Eating Gilbert Grape? - and it SUCKED! He may be able to entertain ignorant children with is funny-man accents and charades in Disney films, but other than that, he's what I like to refer to as a "d**chebag." Who is Publius?

I liked

in that movie Finding Neverland - such a great story. While I have never read any of Barrie's works (including Peter Pan) but he's still an inspiration to me for the simple fact he left all the rights to PP to a children's hospital. But Depp to me did his best work in that movie. Most of the time he plays these off the wall characters that you can really let yourself go. In Finding Neverland he really had to bring a great deal of believablity to Barrie and he did an amazing job. Visit my homepage here

Mr. Depp, or Johnny as I call him

is one of my favs. This is an homage, albeit in a weird way, to his skills as an actor. I think his first role was in Nightmare on Elm Street and he got sucked in to the bed and...well, I'll leave it at that. But I had forgotten about Gilbert Grape and that's such a good movie! Thanks for your comments kissme, kjhack, jdubhub and veghead, as always, I appreciate your feedback. Peace, Mia NW Please visit my recent posts here Get paid to be a xombie! Join us here

I über loved your article on Johnny Depp ^.^ He is quite the looker, eh? Keep up the creativity Love your post ^.^ <3

Heh!

Funny stuff. I remember an old movie with Depp from about 1985 where he and that dude from Northern Exposure played a couple of young guys trying to get laid at some beach resort...or something. I'll bet Depp would like every copy of that hideous flick destroyed. :) ↑ Grab this Headline Animator Free Chicken Wings

 
 

One of the best actors of this generation

That was a very funny narrative, Mia. It's a good thing for him that he already had other popular acting roles before Pirates of the Carribean came along. He could be permanently typecast as le Capitan. As for me, I like the diversity of his roles. I liked him as the sleazy book collector in Roman Polanski's Ninth Gate. I thought he did a good job with the movie adaptation of Sweeney Todd. He's certainly come a long way since 21 Jump Street and his first kinds of acting roles in What's Eating Gilbert Grape, Edward Scissorhands, and Benny & Joon.

Johnny Depp is my fantasy mate

Even though he's young enough to be my fantasy child. I love the Euro-trash aspect of him, although I'd live in Rome if I were him. Funny stuff, Mia! That music you listen to works.
