Stars in Rewind: Brad Pitt and Johnny Depp Kill Kids with Mullets
Cinematical — Filed under: Fandom, Brad Pitt, Johnny Depp, Trailers and Clips, Stars in Rewind We've already brought you Brad Pitt selling Pringles. But how about the good old days when Brad acted his young heart out? Well, you could say acted, but his talents back in the '80s do not reveal the success to come. You can search around and find some embarrassing clips from his stint on Dallas, but I thought I would throw up a little pirate flavor. Back in 1988, Pitt popped up as a high school student in an episode of 21 Jump Street. Along with ...

Stars in Rewind: Brad Pitt and Johnny Depp
Allie Is Wired — We’ve already brought you Brad Pitt selling Pringles. But how about the good old days when Brad acted his young heart out? Well, you could say acted, but his talents back in the ’80s do not reveal the success to come. You can search around and find some embarrassing clips from his stint on Dallas, but I thought I would throw up a little pirate flavor.

A high-school survival kit: What are the top teen TV shows?
Pop Candy: Top Stories & Community Feed — Last week many of you gave advice to high-school freshmen that included pop-culture suggestions for anyone going through that tough time right now.

Johnny Depp as the Mad Hatter
The Laughing Stork with Candy Kirby | Parenting, Family, Pop Culture & Gravity-Defying Baby Poop — Here is our first glimpse of Johnny Depp as the Mad Hatter in Tim Burton’s “Alice in Wonderland.” As you can see, the inspiration is “Carrot Top Channels Edward Scissorhands at the Circus”: Which led me to thinking, does Johnny Depp EVER play a “real” character?  We know he’s got a lock on the dark, kooky characters — and maybe no one wants to see him play the Tom Hanks kinda roles — but is he capable of tapping into that more vulnerable, human side for a movie role?  Which led me to thinking about Johnny’s work on 21 Jump ...

I Love the 80s - 21 Jump Street
Celebrity Smack: Gossip & Entertainment Blog — If you happened to be a teenager in the 80s, you will definitely remember ‘21 Jump Street’, starring uber hunk Johnny Depp. His face was splashed all over Tiger Beat, and girls like me had posters of him in our rooms. He was hot, even then. As for Brad Pitt, I had no clue who he was at the time, but he was climbing his way up the Hollywood ladder, about to become one of the most famous (and sexiest) celebrities in the world. Who knew he starred in an episode of ‘21 Jump Street’? Not me! Not until I came across this clip, that is. It’s so funny ...

Depp plays weird again
CELEBRITY OUTHOUSE | BAD ACTORS — Here's a pic of him as "Mad Hatter" in art student Tim Burton's re-imagining of "Alice in Wonderland" due out next year. I've come to the conclusion that Depp isn't just playing weird; he is weird. But weird is good for Disney because "Pirates" did so well. But I prefer this clip (which has Brad Pitt's best acting): ...
