Umm I already thought Johnny was in the "Top Actor" bracket. He's an excellent actor that just doesn't give a fuck. He's in that category with the other greats:

Marlon Brando
Al Pacino
James Dean
Sean Penn
Robert De Niro
Jack Nicholson
I will forever love and miss you...my sweet Prince.

johnny depp has a knack for getting cast in movies that are typically outside the norm. i respect that. he's not my favorite actor going, but there are more worthy targets than him for hollywood hate.

Larry Fishburne certainly isn't in that top bracket - he's definitely on a lower rung. Decent actor though, all the same.

Are you talking about Johnny Depp? Dumber than a bag of Hammers? I'd think that title would go to Keanu or Rob Schnieder or something.

Rob Schneider actually strikes me as a man of above-average intelligence. As for Keanu, Johnny makes him look like a brain surgeon.


nod

Schneider is definitely no buffoon, at least not in an intellectual sense. smile

I think Tom is a good actor!
Just because the guy is madly in love and wants to show the world in a strange way, and has his own opinion on anti drepessives, ( doesn't mean I agree with him ) doesn't make him a bad actor!!

And about Depp!! It's about time!!
He's a great actor!! I loved him in that lovely stupid film Cry Baby!
He's just great ( who's eating Gilbert Grape, Sleepy Hollow ) And I love the different kinds of rolls he plays!

R E S P E C T !! worship

You people don't get it, do you? lol

I didn't mean that he always looks the same or even that the characters are written the same way. What I mean is that good actors can make you see only their character when they're acting. They allow themselves to be absorbed by the character, if you will. Johnny Depp just makes you see Johnny Depp, in my opinion. He doesn't achieve that oh so important suspension of disbelief.

Congratulations, Johnny Depp! With your ability to be very good looking whilst reciting other people's words and moving about in a somewhat natural manner in front of cameras for minutes at a time, you will now be paid even more millions!




falloff never heard acting described like that

He's not in the same league as Denzel Washington, Sean Penn, Tom Hanks, DeNiro etc etc. Those are fine actors. The best of the best.

Wow, the Depp zealots are really coming out of the woodworks. lol He does make truckloads of cash so don't you worry about him. We must agree to disagree on the acting ability though.

And what you mean "if retina is my real name". Is XxAxX your real name? I have a hard time imagining a mother coming up with that for her daughter. hmm
