I believe Paul Newman was the greatest actor of all time but of my generation I believe its Johnny Depp. With Edward Scissorhands, Don Juan Demarco, Donnie Brasco, Blow, Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas, The Pirates of the Caribbean, Willy Wonka and the Chocalate Factory and many more who else even comes close. His acting range is better than anyone out there. Who else can play Willy Wonka and then convincingly play an undercover cop in Donnie Brasco? Poll has been updated and idiot joke taken out since everyone is so sensitive. You Decide. Also some actors were omitted for obvious reasons. Willem Dafoe and Daniel Auteuil. Nuff said.

I thought this was going to be a simple, respectable poll, but "You disagree and are an idiot" just throws your entire credibility out the window. Looks like the only guy who's a bigger douche bag than Johnny Depp is the OP.

He is an amazing actor, for sure. Quite possibly the most talented at the moment.

Isn't he from Nebraska but talks with something that resembles a British accent? :laugh:

Wow, way to be a disdainful idiot yourself by telling everyone else their opinions are wrong.

His English wasn't clear, I interpret it that by disagreeing, you call Oilfieldtrash an idiot. :)

I don't know, there are other actors I like more (Ed Norton, Tim Roth, heck even Brad Pitt), which I guess makes me an idiot.

It's a compound sentence. Grammar, nubcake. "You disagree and (understood-you) are an idiot."

It makes perfect sense if you have any sort of grasp of the English language.

I think he's from Kentucky but lived in South Florida for many years. He was in a friend's band in the early 80s...I think he still has one of Depps' amps in his garage :)

You of all people should appreciate Johnny Depp in the movie Blow. Aren't you the one that gets coked out then goes into a CAP typing rage?

He's one of the better 'popular' actors IMO. Not the greatest, but of all the people that get a lot of credit in hollywood he's one of the few that nearly deserves it.

I think Johnny Depp has tons of talent.

I also think that over the same generation, a guy like Daniel Day Lewis pretty much destroys Depp (let alone anyone else) on screen.

Phillip Seymour Hoffman has been around for quite some time, too.
