    @mcleve02 Maybe they will change that, causing RDJ to be paid about as much as Johnny Depp? I think the reason for that though, that you've mentioned of is because they really want for Johnny Depp to return, so they raise what they pay him a bit, but its likely that he'd return anyway because he enjoys playing Captain Jack Sparrow. As for RDJ i wouldn't say the same thing, because i don't know how true that is, that RDJ is getting paid $115 million combined for Iron Man3 and The Avengers 2.

    @themoviefanatic No Sean that is 5 movies... Count them...
    1. Iron Man
    2. Iron Man 2
    3. The Avengers
    4. Iron Man 3
    5. The Avengers 2

    And he is making }115 million combined for both Iron Man 3 and The Avengers 2... He is making almost the same amount for a huge successful series for 2 films that Depp is making for one...

    @mcleve02 It could be because RDJ has been in only 3 of the Marvel movies in Iron Man, Iron Man 2 and The Avengers, not including The Incredible Hulk movie appearance, and Johnny Depp's been in 4 of the Pirates of the Caribbean movies, soon to be 5 of them. I'm sure RDJ will get paid as much as Johnny Depp in the Pirates of the Caribbean movies, for Iron Man 3 and The Avengers 2 when those movies get closer to being released, because then he'll be in just as many Marvel movies, as there will be Pirates of the Caribbean movies by then.

    @themoviefanatic It's what I have seen... and there have been several other actors who have appeared in just as many films and did not make anywhere near that amount of money... RDJ is only make $50 million for his role in The Avengers and jumped to $115 million combined for both Iron Man 3 and The Avengers 2... and his movies are getting the numbers and mainstream success and he still is no where near the amount that Depp is... It's a load of crap!

    @mcleve02 Where did you hear that he felt like he was simply reading the lines, and doing what the director wanted him to with a little of his "sparrow sp*ce" added? Or are you referring to what you've seen on screen in Pirates of the Caribbean movies and in behind the scenes videos and on set videos of Pirates 3 and Pirates 4? Also, he' being paid $95 million for Pirates 5, because he's already been in 4 of them. Wouldn't you think that the more that a main actor or actress returns for sequels to movies they've been in before, the more they would get paid for it?

    @dan1 hehe I was wondering when you would grace us with your presence! If only Scarlett were in Pirates... then we would still be in love with the series... ;)

    Depp is overrated. Yes, Pirates 1 was for him what Iron Man 1 was for Downey Jr., but it's since been run into the ground and gone stale. I wish overseas audiences didn't have such easily satisfied tastes, else we might already be done with this series.

    Also, you're a dumbass for reviewing a movie that isn't out yet.

    @themoviefanatic He didn't get into the role nearly as much... there was a serious lack of passion... He felt like he was simply reading his lines and doing what the director wanted him to with a little of his "Sparrow sp*ce" added... it's like he isn't caring anymore... which is why is asking for more money... he probably wants to stop and do other things and if they are going to want him to do this, which will keep him away from other projects, he demands an unholy amount of money...

    @mcleve02 What seemed so different about his acting in Pirates 3 and Pirates 4 to you? I didn't notice anything what so ever, about his acting being in any way different in Pirates 3 and Pirates 4 than it was Pirates 1 and Pirates 2.

    @themoviefanatic His acting is what we are talking about... He did no where near the job of playing the character as he did in the first two installments...

    @mcleve02@crypt What you guys are saying about Pirates 3 and Pirates 4. It's not Johnny Depp's fault, it is the script writters Terry Rossio and Ted Elliotts faults. They made a big mistake working on Pirates 2's and Pirates 3's scripts at the same time, instead of working on them one at a time.

    @Wayne-Bell I don't think even close... the majority of his roles require the same kind and/or similar type of acting... not very much depth there...

    @Wayne-Bell I'm sure you know exactly how big Depp's dick is

    Please girls, you are embarressing me....of course Depp has a dick, much bigger then Harrisons i would say, you need to look to the future, Ford was a GREAT actor, no disagreement there, but Depp is in the running !
