In fairness, it's not the kind of thing they need to do.

Depp probably did it for the buzz.

Might well be, but fair fúcks to them for doing it in that way. Very memorable for all involved.

Vanessa Paradis is past her sell-by-date and he's shopping for another schooly chanteuse.

Vanessa: I'm here to console you. Just PM.

Possibly, but look at his Fast Show appearence.
He does seem to do this stuff for giggles.

I hear he's excellent at doing his make-up and no-one would have any problems if he just wandered off set of his own accord in the middle of the day and took some of the cast with him.

True... but as stunts go, that's a real cute one

Sanjuro · 08-10-2010 10:00AM

It would have been far more interesting if he went as Hunter S. Thompson, in character.

Eh...no.

He hardly needs to do this sort of thing to promote PoTC - one of the best selling movie franchises in recent years :rolleyes:

Depp seems to be a decent enough sort, from various interviews and stuff I've seen him in. I'd say he just had a spur of the moment idea to do this school trip when he read the girl's letter. It's something those kids will remember for a long long time, and he probably got a few chuckles from it. Win win.

He seems genuinely down to earth, I think thats why people like him, he doesnt take himself too seriously

Yup, that movie, starring one of the most respected actors around, the 4th in one of the biggest franchises in movie history, thats not out for another 7 months, gets the promotional ball rolling by Depp apparing in a school in England and only phone camera footage being shot, the Disney marketing team are trying a radical new approace to film promotion.

such cynics :pac:

anyway, its a cool thing for a huge movie star to do for what seems like the sh1ts and giggles of it, made that kids year.

Or Edward Scissorhands!

Chris P. Bacon · 08-10-2010 11:33PM

Fairplay to him ,He does seem like a down to earth guy.

We need more positive people like him, couldn't see Tom Cruise doing it.

Poor fcuking kid:

Kid sends a confidential note; a last ditch, deperate attempt to free her from a regime so brutal she sent a letter to Johnny Depp asking for help. Johnny fcuking Depp!!! Imagine how desperate you'd need to be that your last genuine port of call for rescue was a hollywood actor, imagine how worn at the bottom of the barrel was that she found herself with no other recourse than to write johnny Fcuking Depp a note, asking for help.

And what does the prick do? Rescue her, give her shelter, pay to move her to a new school? Nope ... he shops the poor kid out in front of the entire school!!!!

W4nker!!!!

In 2008 Depp donated £1million to Great Ormond Street Hospital after they treated his daughter for kidney failure.

The world needs more Johnny Depps.:)

Dennis the Stone · 08-10-2010 11:50PM

Johnny Depp is a genuinely nice guy.
