For those unfamiliar with Depp's comments, he referred to the USA as a dumb and dangerous, aggressive puppy with big teeth. The irony is that he said this about a week before his latest movie - Once Upon A Time In Mexico - was scheduled to hit movie theaters ( I can just see the steam coming from the ears of the movie's producers as he gives millions of people a reason to boycott). Good thing he waited until after Pirates of the Caribbean, but how smart can Depp be to antagonise so many movie-goers? He's come out recently and said his words were taken out of context and that he's sorry and that he was actually saying the USA is a young country still going thru it's growing pains - blah blah blah - so now two gaffs from the brilliant mind of Johnny Depp. Hey Johnny, if you think many Americans are idiots, FINE, I'd agree many are, but don't start running away from your analysis unless you think you were wrong. And for God's sakes, come up with a better rationalisation. Of course, how could you backtrack from that one?

I don't go to movies because I agree with the actor's political opinions. Hell, I wouldn't be able to go to many of the ones I do if that were the case. I go to be entertained.Originally posted by Verto

maybe he disagreed with the movies plot and thought he'd just rubbish american or something (if they are connected).
Or, like most hollywood 'stars', he wanted to be seen as intelligent, and actually having an opinion of his own.eimi men anthropos pollon logon, mikras de sophiasComment

Didn't that Dixie Chicks album become their biggest-selling one ever? I borrowed it at the library and thought it was quite good myself.Världsstad - Dom lokala genrenas vän

He's pretty stupid for saying it.
