I'm really not too fond of either, actually. But for being versatile and being successful Johnny Depp. Actually, both have had a few great performances. When Pitt was younger he could pull of a role with so much charisma. Now? It doesn't show. Same goes for Depp. Their earlier work is way better than what they produce now.

And iam sorry for all their fans :)

What a constructive post to add to the thread. Thanks ever so much.

As far as feeling sorry for fans of an actor, Robert DeNiro fans (and I am a huge one myself) have had to hang our heads in shame as Bob has turned out a steady stream of ***** since 1998. The Adventures of Rocky & Bullwinkle, Godsend, Meet the Fockers, Analyze That, Flawless, Showtime, Hide & Seek, Shark Tale, Great Expectations and 15 Minutes are all just horrible excuses for movies. The average and completely uninspiring Hollywood crap he's been in during this period, like Analyze This, Meet the Parents, The Score, City by the Sea and Men of Honor, seem like masterpieces compared to the likes of Rocky & Bullwinkle, but are nowhere near the quality of DeNiro's best films from the '70s and '80s. Nowhere near. When Ronin is the best movie you've been a part of in eight years, that's a career in free-fall. Very, very sad to see. And always embarassing.

Hopefully The Good Shepherd will put him back on track, and despite his record in recent years I actually have faith it may be something worthwhile (loved Bob's directorial debut A Bronx Tale). So, we'll see.



And now, back to the thread's topic....

both talented or pretty much but they may be losing from their appearance - this may be also charming by the way. anyway, always liked Depp more.

Did i say something wrong ?! all what i said was that they are full of
**** and i hate thier guts, that's it .:cool:

And Bobby D is the greatest actor of all time and he'll allways will be.:)

And i'm proud to be his no.1 fan.

Travis Bickle 01-07-06 09:42 PM

I'd hardly say Brad Pitt is a terrible actor at all.
Fight Club, Seven and Meet Joe Black are some of my favourite films, and I loved Twelve Monkeys, he really was brilliant as Jeffrey. Ocean's Eleven wasn't bad either.

As for Johnny Depp, Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas was a damn good movie and he was quite good in it.

I do think Brad Pitt is a better actor though, but I don't think he's done anything good for a while.

thmilin 01-08-06 12:42 AM

hm, i dunno that either is a better actor than the other. depp is more interesting, overall, and has managed to carry off interesting more often. pitt has served "pretty" roles more often than he has served interesting, yet, has been capable (i agree about Twelve Monkeys). I consider Ocean's to have been an ensemble film that required all the actors to pretty much be themselves with a few odd lines thrown in.

if we're talking looks, neither of them really rings my bell. i don't like blonde boys. :) and i don't like skinny boys ...

... but Depp in The Man Who Cried was hot, and every once in a while Pitt will do/say something that peaks my interest (for a second). :P

darkhorse 01-08-06 12:51 AM

Sean Connery all the way! :D

stevo3001 01-08-06 01:50 AM

Johnny Depp by a looong way.

Pitt's usually OK, sometimes a touch wooden, at his best above average (generally seems to have improved over the years). He's a serviceable leading man.

Depp, on the other hand, is one of the most talented American actors of his generation.

Iroquois 01-09-06 04:01 AM

Depp.

:) your his no.1 fan for sure

Uncle Jay 01-15-06 06:54 AM

Depp, is more of a versatile actor and a better one at that.

Pitt, however, provided an amazing performance in "12 Monkeys"...but I haven't seen anything equal of that performance from him since.

Wow this is a very hard one. If it was one looks I would have to give the nod To Brad Pitt, but on acting ability it is definitely Johnny Depp.

rubyblood 01-17-06 07:43 PM

Johnny Depp was cool before he started doing Disney movies and Brad Pitt was ok before he started doing Jennifer Aniston. So, neither.

anyone know what sun glasses brad pitt was wearin in oceans twelve?

Southern Belle 02-06-06 11:56 PM

Most definitely Johnny Depp. He has more talent in his little toe then Brad Pitt will every have.

FilmPirate 02-07-06 01:04 AM

I think they are both great. Brad Pitt has "Fight Club" and that's one of my favorite movies ever... But I have to give it to Johnny Depp... He is my hero. I give it to him because he is great on and off screen. His interviews are almost as good as his movies... Besides his career is far from over and we should see a lot of great films from him shortly.

dojo 02-07-06 12:03 PM

Pitt is more handsome than Depp, but Johnny is more talented in my opinion :)

Mrs. Darcy 02-12-06 10:07 PM

Brad Pitt is cotton candy, sweet, but no substance.

Johnny Depp is bakalava, sweet, but with lots of layers to his acting.

Go Johnny! And excuse the metaphors...I'm hungry.

Sexy Celebrity 02-13-06 03:54 PM

I practically ache with pleasure at the thought of Brad Pitt. Johnny Depp has NOTHING compared with Brad Pitt. I mean, there's nothing really wrong with Johnny Depp, but I don't instantly salivate when I hear his name.

Brad Pitt, on the other hand, has my full approval if he ever wants to just rape me! Seriously... if Brad Pitt jumped out of nowhere at me, took me in the woods, and raped me violently, there's no way I would even prosecute him. In fact, I'd send him flowers.

Johnny Depp doesn't get that kind of special treatment from me -- well, unless I find out that I really, really liked it. But seriously, anytime Brad Pitt wants me, he can take me! Brad, I am throwing myself at you. Anytime Angelina isn't around... just, like, come here. I'll do anything.

yeah but compared to fight club and se7en and legends of the fall and ocean's 11 and Snatch and Sleepers and 12 Monkeys? i dont think so! :-p

wonderwall 02-14-07 02:14 PM

Vast differences
 
Are we really bothering to compare the 2?
Jonny Dep is obviously capable of the bizarre, the hilarious, the deep, the romantic and the dramatic. There is much more range in him than in Brad Pitt!
Though I'm a fan of his... pretty boys can't do physical comedy.. they may get dirty or ruin their pretty faces... and his romance is a little soul-less... there is never enough fire between the actress, NOT even with Angelina... at least on screen. He can do the straight faced sarcasm though and that makes for a good con man! (ala the OCEAN's franchise)

Emmsy 02-15-07 06:47 AM

Johnny Depp definately. Brad Pitt has too much of the pretty boy image that too many girls go for. Johnny Depp has that extra something

Tony Montana 03-07-07 08:14 PM

Re: Johnny Depp or Brad Pitt?
 
I never used to like any of these guys. But by watching Johnny Depp contrast to different types of roles such as: Edward Scissorhands - roles like drunken pirates. He's a good actor and I think he is better than Pitt

As for Brad Pitt, I hardly ever watch any movies with him in it.

reallygreatidea 03-14-07 10:06 AM

Re: Johnny Depp or Brad Pitt?
 
Johnny Depp may be abetter actor, but Brad Pitt is way better looking!!!!! Every time I think of Johnny Depp I can't get the Edward Scissorhands image out of my head! Ugh!

Scarlett O'Hara 03-15-07 08:21 PM

Re: Johnny Depp or Brad Pitt?
 
Johnny Depp.
Brad Pitt is so much overrated, and also I don't like blonde men. Besides, Johnny is sexier, even when he plays bizarre characters like Willy Wonka or Edward Scissorhands

Britbrat19 03-15-07 08:34 PM

Re: Johnny Depp or Brad Pitt?
 
johnny depp he is a wonderful actor he can play all kinds of characters.

Escape 03-17-07 11:36 AM

Re: Johnny Depp or Brad Pitt?
 
I enjoy Brad Pitt movies (Se7en being my fav.) more so than Johnny Depp so I have to go with Pitt there.

ParAnnoyed_PIXIE 03-19-07 11:48 AM

Re: Johnny Depp or Brad Pitt?
 
As actors they are both very good with different strengths and weaknesses. I also think they are both good down to earth guys. However, I would have say Brad because he seems to the most approachable.

WooblesWobble 03-25-07 05:05 PM

Re: Johnny Depp or Brad Pitt?
 
Johnny Depp has it all, the looks, the character. He is the whole package. I would choose him in a heartbeat.

Princess j.t. 03-25-07 11:48 PM

Re: Johnny Depp or Brad Pitt?
 
Johnny Depp all the way.
