Brad Pitt > Johnny Depp.. for the following reasons:
Se7en, Fight Club, Ocean's 11...

Johnny Depp > Brad Pitt.. for the following reasons:
Edward Scissorhands, Pirates of the Carribean..

But overall, I like Brad Pitt more.. he just doesn't look as freaky as Depp.

When it comes down to it Johnny Depp is the more versatile actor of the two and to me that means he is the better actor.

Of course Brad Pitt is the hottest of the two. ;)

New Question

What are their best roles?

Pitt just knocked everyone out in Snatch. I mean his character seemed so real. If I had watched that movie without seeing any of his others, I'd be fooled to think he was actually a gypsy with acting skills.

For Depp, it's a bit harder. Ugh. There's James from Finding Neverland, George from Blow, and Donnie/Joe from Donnie Brasco. You know what, I pick James Matthew Barrie from Finding Neverland.

Brad Pitt - Liked him since day one. But Johnny follows very closely. I think we have seen him get better and better with each film through the years which is cool!

Caity, I just saw Johnny's bio on A&E's Biography and thought of you for some strange reason. :modest: ;)
A&E did a really nice job. Have you seen it?



And to keep this on topic....Depp.

i'll take both of them anyday, and add ewan mcgregor to make 3 of the greatest actors of our time, and a damn sexy bunch too.

I would have to go with Johnny Depp ... I like his eclectic taste and attitude. I have loved him since his days on 21 Jump Street.

Darth Stujitzu 06-03-05 07:24 PM

Would pick Depp, but I admire Pitt as an actor, he is under-rated!!! Has anyone seen Depp's directorial debut "The Brave", he can direct as well, would imagine he might eventually be more behind the camera like Clint is nowadays. Pirates is my fave Depp movie, but he is good in everything he does.

Also, In FINDING NEVERLAND we get him in a role Pitt could play, not as good as depp, but Pitt could never be able to pull out the crazy writer from secret window. Never the less Pitt has his high points, him and DiCaprio are to actors I thught I hated and that they were gay until i realized that they actually could perform very very well.

Depp is Hands Down the best actor nowadays

Now I wonder why you thought of me... :p :D But no, I only caught the very end of it and have been hoping they will air it again soon...



Oh, and I have to go with DEPP in answer to the thread question...

Austruck 06-05-05 10:18 PM

Tough one. I think Depp's been a more consistently good and versatile actor for a longer period of time ("21 Jump Street," anyone? ;) ). Loved him in Edward Scissorhands, Ed Wood (what is it with him and guys named Ed?), Secret Window (loved him in that), Pirates (of course), and Gilbert Grape. Such very different characters.

But then I think of Pitt in 12 Monkeys, and Se7en, and Ocean's Eleven and Fight Club, and I think he's a close second. In 12 Monkeys, particularly, he was spot-on for the part and makes the movie exponentially more interesting than if he weren't there.

On a personal level, I'd probably like Pitt better than Depp (Depp's anti-American sentiments are a real turnoff for me), but acting ... Depp edges out Pitt so far.

I thought that was all cleared up a couple of years ago... :confused:
