What makes Johnny Depp eccentric?

Everyone always talks about how quirky and eccentric he is. But in what way? Is it because he used to play cartoonish characters and hangs out with rock stars and writers?

I know he paints and plays music, but lots of people do that and they're not considered eccentric and whimsical. Even back in the 90s, he was called a beat poet. To me, he seems like an aging man whose brain has slowed down due to years of alcohol and drug abuse. Watching his during the trial was painful; he speaks so slowly and rambles.

the 80s he was a try too hard for the french intelligentsia of the 1930s, the 90s it was heroin chic buster keaton, the 00s lesbian rehab, 2010s walking billboard for the std clinic.

The way he dresses, maybe. His rings, scarves, hats, etc.

Dangling scarves, jangling jewelry, small hats. Man was a rebel.

Has "eccentric" become a synonym for "insufferable"?

Frankly, while I do think he still has some redeeming qualities, I also think he tries WAY TOO HARD with that eccentric bullshit. He's just a drug attic & an alcoholic, with major psychological issues. Not eccentric. Just fucked up.

R4: "Dangling scarves, jangling jewelry, small hats. Man was a rebel."

That is Keith Richards, not JD. JD admitted that his Keith Richards was his inspiration for Jack Sparrow.

r7 it's always been a polite word for insufferable

His teeth. They're beyond the pale, particularly for an American.

Also he looks like he smells and had addressed these rumors in the past insisting that he's obsessed with smelling good at all times and only looks like he stinks.

However, given his substance abuse issues I find that hard to believe.

R12 What's actually wrong with his teeth because they don't look that bad to me?

He tried to get eccentricity by standing next to Keef and Hunter Thompson.

He's an uneducated, coddled, selfish, egomaniacal actor of considerable talent who thinks authenticity as a rebel requires stinking and acting like a monster validates his shame.

r14 only if it's been dipped in vag or comes with a gig attached.

one longstanding, though never broke mainstream, it was easier for him to amass a male harem (trade/twinks young actors, such as the the pansy brigade; tobey, orlando, leo, river, etc.. also well known for their gay baiting and rumours of the willing casting couch, while also having a reputation for being notorious pussy hounds and being less than friendly to actual young moes) to have greater access to a wide variety of younger women. . . the kind of chicks that might not be into him but willing to settle because he's a celeb and in the peripheral of their heart's desire.

The scarves.

by Anonymousreply 19April 4, 2023 3:06 AM

R13 they were brown,.yellow and rotting like a hillbilly's, for awhile at least. I haven't bothered to look lately.
