She doesn't mention Ed Wood, she's not a real fan.

He is lucky because he is Morrissey's neighbor. But he moved to France, so I wonder, did he sell his L.A. house?

Mary (Mary), Thursday, 27 May 2004 04:29 (nineteen years ago) link

i'm still trying tofigure out how Johnny Depp has the perfect face for a horror movie, never mind Donna.

Allyzay, Thursday, 27 May 2004 04:32 (nineteen years ago) link

Mary I actually purchased Morrissey's new album, I mean not because of the Jools Holland performance which was quite well but because it actually includes song titles like "The World is Full of Crashing Bores" and "How Can Anybody Possibly Know How I Feel", it is like Morrissey has become a MorrisseyBOT. "Perfect Face For a Horror Flick" should b e on his next album.

Allyzay, Thursday, 27 May 2004 04:34 (nineteen years ago) link

I knew your recant was not to be trusted, dirty girl. Meanwhile, if JD doesn't live in that house anymore, maybe I could move there, and keep watch for the Porsche?

Mary (Mary), Thursday, 27 May 2004 04:42 (nineteen years ago) link

do you think if we pooled together our bank accounts we could afford the house? I have like $5000! it's a good start yeah?

Allyzay, Thursday, 27 May 2004 04:44 (nineteen years ago) link

Carey's been wanting to set up house for a while, and F. could be the Moz imposter and otherwise entertain us in the dark days when Morrissey goes on his endless world-domination tours. The house on Kings Road in MCR may be more within our budget thought, sigh.

MBOT probably wrote the closer, "You Know I Couldn't Last" for you.

Mary (Mary), Thursday, 27 May 2004 04:49 (nineteen years ago) link

I will be quite chuffed if he did! He looks very dashing on the cover of this album! Dashing well-dressed gentlemen should all write songs for me!

Allyzay, Thursday, 27 May 2004 04:53 (nineteen years ago) link

Johnny's house looks a bit grand. Maybe we can just camp out on the street and you can program the Mozbot for Operation Perfect Face for A Horror Flick, taking special care to remove any deadly lawyer/liar/judge/jury/policeman/northern leeaches bugs.

Mary (Mary), Thursday, 27 May 2004 05:06 (nineteen years ago) link

only if I can sing "Speedway" at him while I'm preparing him for the Horror Flick Face. All of those rumoooouuuurs keeping me grounded, I never said, I never said that they were compleeeetely unfounded....

Allyzay, Thursday, 27 May 2004 05:08 (nineteen years ago) link

He awaits Ally's advice from his bedroom.

Mary (Mary), Thursday, 27 May 2004 05:36 (nineteen years ago) link

Morrissey enjoys Steve McQueen, I have heard, as do I; perhaps we could fast become friends and have adventures out in the Tijuana "suburbs" wastelands? Of course you are invited Mary. We shall just travel, maybe like create a Polyphonic Spree type band, except sad and less Jesus-y.

Allyzay, Thursday, 27 May 2004 05:41 (nineteen years ago) link

You people have put much thought into this. Well done. (Ally's thoughts on an infinitely superior Polyphone Spree deserves praise).

Ned Raggett (Ned), Thursday, 27 May 2004 12:13 (nineteen years ago) link

I tried to make F get a more Morrissey haircut in London but he said his head was not big enough to pull it off. But he did try.

Carey (Carey), Thursday, 27 May 2004 12:53 (nineteen years ago) link

c, you are a liar. It's you who wants to grow F's hair out. More Shaun Ryder than Moz.

Morrissey used the I Kill You With Guns McQueen backdrop in one of his tours, and in a recent interview, I think it was this picture that was up in his house. Everything is coming full circle.

So no one knows if JD still lives there? What kind of lame board is this?

Mary (Mary), Thursday, 27 May 2004 17:18 (nineteen years ago) link

I was meeting him halfway! If he had to cut the hair, I wanted it to be Moz.

Johnny Depp= cool.

Here's where JD's house is:

6.  MANSION OWNED BY JOHNNY DEPP (high on the hillside just west of  Sweetzer Avenue)


When actor Johnny Depp bought this 29-room mansion in 1995, some entertainment magazines reported that it was once owned by Bela Lugosi and that the Munchkins stayed there during the filming of The Wizard of Oz.  Hollywood historian Laurie Jacobson insists that neither claim is correct, and that the castle only looks like the type of home the one-time Dracula star might have lived in. 


In fact, the castle was once owned by Hersee Moody Carson, the childless widow of a multimillionaire, and it was called the “Castle of the Fairy Lady”  because she used to hold parties there for orphans on major holidays during the 1930s and 1940s.  Before Depp shelled out $2.3 million for the gated estate, it was owned by divorce attorney Michael Mitchelson, who lost it in a bankruptcy after being convicted of tax fraud.


What you can see from Sunset, behind thick foliage, is the backside of the mansion.  The front entrance is on North Sweetzer Avenue.

Is this hard to find? Can someone from L.A. take me to the next door residence please?

Johnny Depp, the star best known for his starring roles in Charlie and the Chocolate Factory and Pirates of the Caribbean, is making his most unexpected career move yet - to BBC Radio 2.

The actor will briefly join the ranks of Terry Wogan and Humphrey Lyttelton when he presents a one-off documentary about the Hollywood movie legend James Dean. Depp follows in the footsteps of Brad Pitt, who narrated a documentary about Nick Drake for the station last year.

The Depp documentary, which will be broadcast on September 27, is timed to coincide with the 50th anniversary of Dean's death at the wheel of his Porsche in 1955.

"Johnny Depp highlights the artistic passion that drove this country boy [Dean] from rural Indiana to become a 20th century icon," said the BBC.

Johnny Depp on James Dean is part of the station's autumn line-up of programming, which also includes specials featuring Sir Paul McCartney and Val Kilmer.

The former Beatle returns to Studio 2 at Abbey Road for an "intimate journey through his songwriting history". Kilmer will present a documentary about Marlon Brando.

The BBC revealed that Chris Evans's new Saturday afternoon show will become the first Radio 2 programme to be made available as a download and podcast.

Radio 2 will also host the world premiere broadcast of the first musical collaboration between Andrew Lloyd Webber and Tim Rice, The Likes of Us.

I saw somewhere that he and Burton were talking about doing a high-class porn film.

I really don't like him. Why does everyone love him so much? And especially, why do people think he's hot? He's NOT. And never was.

Well argued.

you live in a space battle homo cave (sic), Friday, 5 March 2010 03:41 (fourteen years ago) link

Johnny Depp is a movie star. This means something entirely different than being an actor. You can be both at the same time, but even though I have mixed and ambiguous feelings about Depp's acting ability, there is no question in my mind he's a great movie star.

I don't belittle that, either. It takes a lot of talent to be a great movie star, not just good cheekbones. Shit, if cheekbones were all it took, every fashion model would be a movie star.

at what point did he start to suck? Can we blame tim burton somehow?

Yeah, all Burton's fault, or the silly Pirates movies. But every once in a while he makes an effort, like Finding Neverland, or Public Enemies. Then he does a (literal) no-brainer, like Rob Marshall's upcoming "Into the Woods.' I'm going to guess he plays ... the wolf.

xpost Yeah, I'd take that bet. If Marshall can't do it ...

Josh in Chicago, Tuesday, 16 July 2013 13:53 (ten years ago) link

Burton tuned him into a muppet. Never been a huge fan but lately he is just so annoying. Would like to see him play someone's dad or grandfather, something subtle, not the main star. guess I want him to be Alan Arkin...I LOVE Alan Arkin.

The stuff with make-up is pretty savvy, actually, because I saw unadorned Depp in that Warwick Davis faux doc and he looked oooooold. .

left vanessa for amber heard? fool

the late great, Wednesday, 17 July 2013 03:17 (ten years ago) link

I vote fool...He has been looking rough in some photos I saw last year in a magazine in some lobby.

Does Hollywood or do PR people still do the ole PR trick of pairing a couple to boost careers? Tying her with an establish star and him with what was supposed to be a dynamic, new talent?

Make-up does a lot for people. In real life Heard doesn't stand out and looks several years older than she is supposed to be.

Watched Blow last night. I'd seen it before. Far from great, but not bad. It's almost funny how imitative it is of its two or three blueprints, none of which is really Scarface. Goodfellas is everywhere, and there's Boogie Nights and Carlito's Way here and there. (Seeing as Boogie Nights steals a lot from Goodfellas, that may be redundant, but there are a couple of scenes more specifically in the style of Boogie Nights.) Depp does better than Penelope Cruz, who's just asked to yell a lot. Paul Reubens is good--I think this was a comeback of sorts at the time?

clemenza, Thursday, 31 July 2014 17:26 (nine years ago) link

it was an effort towards that at least, mystery men was around that time as well. i've never seen blow but it does (or did) have that second tier scarface status w/ bros for a while, one of those movies i'd completely forgotten existed and then years later found out had a weird fanbase a la boondock saints.

balls, Thursday, 31 July 2014 17:34 (nine years ago) link

saw Blow in the theater, thought it was p stupid/derivative but not entirely joyless. Paul Reubens is probably the best thing about it.

Mystery Men seems like a forgotten movie at this point - I hope it made Bob Burden a comfortable retirement fund, but it seems like it came out a decade too soon.
