Johnny on Stranger Tides


So I finally came to terms with the fact that there is going to be another "PIRATES OF THE CARRIBEAN" movie (loved the first one, disappointed with the rest) and will stop ranting about how DEPP is wasting time and talent while he could be doing something new and how Hollywood can never just "live it alone" and turns every successful flick into a saga with usually lame sequels. I read an interview with the film's creators in EMPIRE, and I know it's supposed to be a proper pirate adventure with JACK SPARROW as central figure and its actually based on a BOOK. Fine. Looking at Johnny staring boldly at the horizon in this latest poster gives me hope it can actually Be good. Well, Johnny, it better be...

Everything is repetition ... or reinvention?

That was exactly my thought when I first saw trailer for "RANGO." Johnny Depp ... as a lizard ... in the dessert ... wearing a Hawaiian shirt - that's like a full-on homage to Raoul Duke a.k.a. Hunter S. Thompson a.k.a. one of my favourite writers ever! And in fact ... I could easily imagine him being reborn as something like Rango. I'm sure he would have loved this character.
