Moments of Depp
Perhaps you’ve read a bit about my Johnny Depp love. It’s a tiny little obsession. It’s absolutely healthy…
I was asked today about some of my favorite Johnny Depp film moments and two popped into my head almost immediately. Both are comedic rather than drool worthy, which is surprising.
In Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, Johnny, as Willy Wonka, has this amazingly creepy laugh in one of the opening scenes. He puts a chocolate egg in Grandpa’s mouth to make a chocolate bird, and that laugh…oh man, Brittany I watched that scene on repeat! My dvd player has a feature where you can set it to play any specific part on loop…yeah, we utilized it!
Then we have the dirt scenes from Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man’s Chest. Johnny, as Captain Jack Sparrow taunting Davey Jones saying, “I’ve got a jar of diiiirt!” Cracks me up! That probably has something to do with the video someone made, turning those lines into a song. *love*
I think if I was forced to choose, I’d have to go with the dirt scenes in Pirates. Not only is it hilarious, but Johnny’s a pirate. Pirates ftw!!
Those are both comedic, but I think when Sweeney Todd comes out, I’ll have some swoon-worthy scenes to throw in the mix, I mean, it’s Johnny Depp singing….does it get any better?! If you haven’t seen the trailer yet, you can visit the official Sweeney Todd movie site and look at Johnny in all his vengeful glory. I squee every time I see it.
You can also visit Sweeney Todd on MySpace. I added him last week!! I drool over those images when I login!!
