Seriously what happened to Depp's star power? Wasn't long ago that every girl wanted his dick. Now no one is watching his shit.
Why is everyone so #madatmort?
>>70235919
Apparently he was great in Black Mass
New Nic Cage
he went to shit after nightmare on elm street
depp never really had that much star power, jack sparrow did. Once jack sparrow dies so does his career, if he can't pull off another pirates movie hes done.
Not Marvel movies.
>>70235944
This.
>>70235919
He was lucky enough to still look as if he was in his 30s while he was actually i his 30s. Than he turned fucking 50 and it's starting to show. For the first time hes actually staring to look his age. The emo/goth chicks who bought all the 2010 Alice merch at Hot Topics have started to notice and are starting to stay away from his projects because old men are creepy.
They are creepy because they still want sex even though they are old and because they remind use of our own future deaths.
>>70236043
this, most of you are too young to remember this, but pre -Pirates Depp was bombing frequently, and had like 1/3 the star power Pitt had.
>>70235919
>mortdecai bombed
>>70235919
Not a girl but still want his dick
Bad film choices really.
Before Pirates he (and Burton) were slightly weird but popular guys. Never achieved breakthrough mainstream success but were loved by their fans.
Since pirates Depp has been going for mainstream and got typecast and Burton has just become a caricature of himself. So when Depp does Burton films they're shit and can't salvage his career.
>>70235919
needs to reunite with leo to save his career
I think it was around the point Pirates 4 came out
>>70235919
He does the same character in every movie he's in. "Weirdo Johnny Depp directed by Tim Burton" it's fucking lame and when you've seen one of his movies you've seen everything Johnny Depp has to offer.
>le acting aloof guy
Shit is tiring and old senpai.
Lone Ranger was kino famalam
The logic is quite simple.
He was popular when he was pretending he's still young, once he started doing roles closer to his actual age the popularity dropped off sharply.
he never was that good of an actor anyway but one of my all time favorite movies is with him (The Ninth Gate) but i'm not sure if i just like the story or it's because of him
>>70235969
It was one of his best, I don't know why he didnt get more recognition for it.
hopefully he's forced into making the Mortdecai franchise
>>70236670
Dont EVER read The Club Dumas (the book The 9th Gate is based on).
>assholes, assholes everywhere
>le secret, pretentious af book club
The 9th Gate stripped it down to its good parts.
>>70235919
Transcendence was cool, fuck you.
Has he managed to actually out-JUST Brendan? Does this mean there is hope for Brendan after all? :)
>>70235919
He doesn't care dude, he just takes what's easy.
>>70235919
Here needs to be in another pirates movie 2bh.
Pirates 5 comes out in a year.
There's no way that's gonna bomb so he'll unjust himself in a year.
>>70235919
Pirates ruined his range. He does the same shit in all his movie now and it got old.
>>70235919
He's getting old
>>70235919
He's too old.
>>70236567
This should be a Beksinski thread.
>>70236043
I think this is the case.
Women just like Disney shit, outside of that they stopped caring about Depp.
>tfw I liked Transcendent
>>70236043
Why are they doing another Pirates and why is it taking so long?
>>70237465
Unlike Brendan, Depp still gets to see his kids, still gets non straight to dvd film roles, and banged Amber Hearst.
He was exposed for being a mostly gimmicky hack.
>>70236599
Nice dubs. I really like Lone Ranger. The run time is a bit much but it's pretty great
>>70235969
This. His performance in that will be getting him work for the rest of the decade.
He's going to be fine desu
i fucking hate him since willy wonka
>>70236043
This.
Aftet Jack Sparrow there was a desire to see Depp in funny costumes.
>>70235969
He's a good actor. He just sold out after PotC blew up.
>>70235919
It simply became a meme to hate him. Lone Ranger wasn't even bad, unless you were told so on the internet before watching it
Ed Wood is his best role.
>people ITT pretend Black Mass was good
>people ITT pretend Depp was good in Black Mass
Hello neo /tv/!
>>70239580
i couldn't agree more.
here is one of my favourites.
>>70242195
and film.
>>70242257
man i wish i had these in the best possible quality there is
>>70236244
>mortdecai
i liked it
>>70242305
another great one.
i wonder how a movie set in this type of universe would look.
i imagine it would be similar to https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SgCxCZNkQ9E
>>70242384
>>70235919
Movies can't rely on big name actors anymore.
Star power isn't a thing.
Kevin Smith apparently schooled Bruce Willis about it.
>>70242436
>>70242165
It WAS bad.
But in the world of summer blockbusters post 2000 that term is relative.
Worse films have been better received and been more financially successful for sure.
>>70235919
Blame the drink and drugs on the fact he's aging badly and his awful film choices. Need to pay for the habit somehow.
I'd say he's not even reading the scripts in advance, but his record is so bad it seems like he has to be trying to pick bad rolls at this point.
>>70242321
>>>/mort/ general when??
Its been too long m8
>>70242283
>foreign audiences paid nearly $40M to watch this piece of shit
>it still didn't come close to earning back its production budget
I saw Mortdecai in the theater. It was okay. Far from the worst movie I've ever seen in the theater (that pierce brosnan low budget spy movie or David Mamet's red belt were awful)
It's better after repeated viewings
I could see it being shown a lot on cable
>>70242468
What the fuck was wrong with Beksinski anyway?Was he fucked up in real life too?
>>70242750
>I saw Mortdecai in the theater
Whoa
What is it even about anyway?
>>70242779
no, normal guy, got murdered by some druggie/loser
>>70242226
>>people ITT pretend Black Mass was good
>>people ITT pretend Depp was good in Black Mass
>Hello neo /tv/!
Pretending that he won't still be working because of that "not My son!" Scene for the next 5 years is pretty imaginative kido
>>70242779
I think i read somewhere that he was heavily inspired by his dreams. He also suffered from a lot of nightmares.
>>70242750
>David Mamet's red belt were awful
so you've seen like five movies in the theatre?
>>70242305
found a website with his and many many more in much better quality if anyone is interested.
http://www.wikiart.org/en/zdislav-beksinski/untitled-1956#close
>>70242821
It did literally nothing for his career. Nice try though
>>70242873
no, but I remember Red Belt being shit
>>70236751
As an actor, WHY would you get a shitty hand tat? He has to sit for makeup to cover it up for EVERY film now.
>>70235919
More like 4 years 4 huge paychecks.
>>70242605
>>>>/mort/ general when??
Literally no one on /tv/ has seen the fucking film. We can only pretend to talk about it for so long.
>you now know that the real end of the unexpected virtue of ignorance was supposed to feature Johnny Depp in the same position as the birdman in the beginning of the movie, this time talking to Jack Sparrow
A nice metaphor for why his career went to shit.
Honesly Depp doesn't have any movies that I dislike, and I've saw them all.
Hell I've been watching Depp movies since Benny & June.
>>70236043
This. He's generally an eclectic actor who just does roles for friends or roles he thinks are fun. Jack Sparrow was something he wanted to do for fun iirc. It just worked magnificently.
I love the pirates movies, I don't care how cheesy they get. I never want them to stop making them. I don't even watch those for Johnny Depp. Barbossa is the real boss.
>>70242787
he is an art dealer that has to find some missing painting
that munn woman is in it.
I remember looking at Gwenyth and thinking "oh, that's why people hire her"
I forgot what awful person she is in real life
people only go watch superhero films. he should suck in his beer gut and board the marvel gravy train for $10mil
>>70243169
he's gonna be the new iron man
At least he can narrate Hunter S Thompson-documentaries for the rest of his goddamn life
Depp doesn't give a shit whether people like his movies or not. He just makes films he likes and if other people like them, good for them.
>>70235919
Black Mass was actually really good.
I honestly think it was the hair.
Out of the other three I only saw Lone Ranger, and that 100% deserved to bomb.
>>>70242821 (You)
>It did literally nothing for his career. Nice try though
Checked IMDb lately? Might want to try using more than one page on your browser at a time sport.
I liked Alice Through The Looking Glass but most immediately despise it for not being the book and for using CGI. Plus Saint Amber's false allegations likely shaved a couple more million off.
>>70240044
Money and money.
Like, they know if they get it right it'll take huge bank.
But they also know they have to get it right and there's a lot that can fuck it up or execs and senior crew on that film will watch their careers tank. I imagine it's stalled by committee decisions at every turn.
I mean, people like Jack Sparrow but Jonny Depp is a liability now, and there's bugger all reason to go see it but for Jack Sparrow.
>>70236178
are you high
He is not hot anymore. He should get fit again and hop on the capeshit train.
>>70243857
He seems to be drowning his sorrows in booze though. He appears to have been drunk/high constantly since 2014.
>>70243049
But it's fun to play pretend
>>70244002
If we saw the film we could have more material to mock it.
We should stream it sometime.
>>70236567
He really, really doesn't. Watch Secret Window and then tell me he's the same in every movie. Or Black Mass, which I haven't seen but you can tell just by the trailer that it's a massively different character. Or hell, watch Fear and Loathing
Johnny Depp has one of the greatest ranges in the business, a bit like Jim Carrey. There are seriously very few actors who can play such eccentric characters in some movies and then play very normal and characters in others.
>>70244283
*normal and reserved characters
Well lads, could it bomb?
>>70243728
i am and that pic blows my mind
>>70246049
It will if her lies and fake evidence "hold up" in court.
>>70235919
LE KEK was funny tho

Story?
>>70235944
No one's seen it. How can they be mad about it?
>>70246177
nice photoshop
What about Black Mass? That turned out okay.
>>70246386
This one doesn't have any Futterwacken.
He's a dick IRL too
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uV3MQtpYikM
>>70242535
It seriously could've been good.with a more ruthless editor.
>>70241025
He's been in an amazing number of reboots (Alice, Wonka, Dark Shadows, Lone Ranger). I like the Alice movies but I get that most people became irritated with the roles and projects he chose.
>>70243728
Aren't we all in one way or another?
>>70247403
really makes you think, huh
He's old as fuck now, but he still tries to act like he's in his 30's.
>>70235969
Yes he was fantastic, the movie itself just wasn't all that great. They gave away the best scene in the trailer (when will this unfunny meme end)
>>70247538
How should he be acting? More serious?
>>70242779
He was cursed.
>>70246576
If I pull that off, would she sue me?
>>70238892
>pirates ruined his range
obviously you'd never seen a depp movie before pirates. he never had range.
>>70236751
jesus he looks fucking miserable, is this the cost of fame?
He became typecast as "le quirky actor" because he did the pirate role too many times.
Pirates of the Caribbean was a good movie, and they ran Jack Sparrow into the ground as a character.
And then he just keeps playing those weird characters that are all identical quirkly "depp" characters.
Jack Sparrow.
Willy Wonka
The Mad Hatter.
he's become Hot Topic bait.
and whenever he tries to do something different, he has the shittiest luck and picks an absolute dud.
And then it became too late. when he does a movie like pirates 15, it sells gangbusters. When he does something different, like transcendence, it bombs or nobody pays attention to his role.
he has range. he was great in Edward Scissorhands and he was very good in Secret Window.
theres also the fact that it feels like as a person he has become consumed by his quirky thing too, I mean, the way he dresses in real life, he looks like he stepped out of one of the pirate movies.
>>70235919
Transcendence was actually pretty good. It's not what you expect.
>>70243167
>those abs
come on now
Depp has always done this. Has 8 years of bombs, then does a mega hit. People like him regardless of what crap he stars in. Sort of like Liam Neeson, no matter how many bad movies he does people still associate him with quality.
He apparently rejected the lead roles in Dr.Strange and Grand Budapest in order to appear in Mortdecai.
If you want to determine a movie's success, see if Johnny Depp rejected it.
>>70242226
>people disagree with me
Hello [pejorative term]!
>>70249107
Grand Budapest was pretentious shit. I respect him more knowing he turned that down.
>>70249250
Um, GB is the least pretentious of Wes' films unlike The Royal Tenenbaums which was a huge fucking pile of shit.
>>70248789
Nah, he just knew he was in a shit movie.
Dark Shadows was the start of the end.
>>70236751
>I wish I was at home beating my girlfriend
>>70235919
He smacked a bitch.
>>70242903
>Red Belt
>shit
Leave /tv/ and never come back.
>>70236043
>depp never really had that much star power,
The greatest lie Hollywood ever told itself was that stars sell movies. Movies make and break stars, not the other way around.
>>70242750
>that pierce brosnan low budget spy film
Ummmm which one, after Bond ended for him they all suck
>>70235919
Mordcai is da bst movie evr. I lov u Morecai. I hope u mke a sequl Mortcai. It would b da bst movi in the whol entre world.
>>70249250
how does it feel to be wrong all the time
>Johnny Depp pre-Pirates: amazing character actor, takes many roles that are versatile yet are immediately recognizable due to his distinct style. While many of these movies are hit-or-miss and some even flop, his performance is always the stand-out part that many can agree carries it. He may not have amazing fame on par with A-listers, but he has dignity.
>Johnny Depp post-Pirates: lmao quirky wild eyed guy silly voice oi u like my accent m8 pls fuck me harder Burton
Such a shame watching someone who used to have so much more self-respect do this to himself. The Mouse really fucked him up.
>>70252515
he doesn't always play weird roles
the problem is that when he doesn't it turns out to be a boring mess like the tourist and transendence
>>70235919
Black Mass was the best performance of his career mate.
Also the flops were in no way his fault, he did his job.
But you were saying....?
>>70247282
I love women's hands when they fiddle with things -- adjust your tie or pocket square or whatever.
I have a friend who is a massive depp fan, but also a mediumcore feminist.
It'll be interesting to see her reaction to this amber heard case.
>>70253290
feminism always come out on top
Is this what we are reduced to? A gossiping site for old hausfraus?
Nightmare on Elm Street was the last time Depp put any effort into his acting, the only time
>>70242779
He was one of the few who could see what's beyond this universe.
>>70253290
>implying women aren't 100% innocent at all times
>implying that such emotionally sensitive creatures could ever speak falsely
this is what your friend believes if she's a feminist
