TFTNT Melika!

I'm so excited to see this movie. Mostly because Johnny looks so hot , , but it also looks good to. And I like the cast.

Melissa Ann

I figured we should start the thread since Roseli is finding so many great set pictures.

I'm sure video clips and a trailer will appear soon too.

InitialSwitch

I hope so. I can't wait to see the trailer.

Melissa Ann

I think this is the first movie in a while where we get to see Johnny as Johnny and not made up a lot, which I love, plus he's got a few stunts and such, so it should be a great film!

InitialSwitch

Yes, Johnny as Johnny is going to be a welcome sight. Plus all the stills from this movie just make me . He looks so incredibly good. I can't wait!

Melissa Ann

I think out of all the roles he's done where he looks, 'normal' so to speak, this one excites me the most because I love his hair!! It's at such a great length and the full beard look suits him!

InitialSwitch

I couldn't agree more.

Melissa Ann

I don't know much about the character though, if he's introverted/extroverted, cunning/sly or genteel and passionate you know.

So that's something to look forward to when seeing the movie.

La Piazzetta in frenzy for Johnny Depp

The filming of "The Tourist" were interrupted by the screams of fans. The actor had to sign autographs
Manuela Pivato
Johnny reaches Piazzetta San Marco and waves, vibrates, vibrating, almost faints, and then chase one, inhuman scream that forces set to stop and shake hundreds of hands Johnny crazy.

The scene, one of the last of "The Tourist" which will be shot in the lagoon, which did not provide anything. A dozen couples who walks among the columns of the Ducal Palace and San Marco and Todaro. A red ribbon to fence the area. La Piazzetta closed intervals. The director Florian Henckel von Donnersmarck, aid, assistant, costume designer, a hairdresser, make-up, audio engineers, lighting and other mischief, all ready. Then, after lunch, comes Johnny and no one can anymore.

The red ribbon wavers, security officers cursing, tourists - real ones - seem crude out of control, pushing the Venetians, the guides lost parts, babies cry and the girls (even those of fifty years) are launched.

White jacket, blue glasses, goatee just carved the barbershop, little guy, not skinny, face slapping, Johnny Depp is ten meters from each other without barriers, markets, stalls, without Angeline, Vanessa and more mightily than half. Or is there and is now or never. So it is now.

As one man, throw in a cry of love in the middle between the Steria and despair, but so strong that someone cares. La ola Deppiana destabilizes the extras, the deafening sound engineers and prevent the shooting. And it is exactly at 15.50, in Piazzetta San Marco flooded by the sun, which is a miracle. Someone whispers something in his ear Johnny, Johnny nods and instead of seeking shelter behind the columns of the Ducal Palace goes to meet his adoring crowd.

Hands beautiful, ugly, stained with rings without rings, throw on Johnny and, if they could, if they would be torn apart. The owner of a pair of hands as a child totters and folds on itself. He barely touched the fingertips of his idol and friend, notify the heart. To send a short message, lies on masegni.

Johnny goes around the Piazzetta, autographs, photographs do not even like the film festival but can not go back on set. Another horde of girls (sixty) drives behind what appears to be greased by the lord, sgom and take the first row. Another caveman scream forces Johnny to reply. And so on andis down, down on the corner of the tower and the pier for an hour, while patiently waiting for the set.

To see Depp, his very active fan club had arrived from Italy half, scoring on a map of shooting locations and assessing what would have been more accessible. Piazza San Marco, of course. Almost the last day. Today the shooting move to the mainland. Another ten days and Johnny.

Thanks for sharing that Roseli!

It's nice that he's in the news a bit!

InitialSwitch

I'm very looking forward to seeing this movie. I hope it's good.

Melissa Ann

All Johnny movies are good IMO, just because he's in them!

InitialSwitch

That's a good perspective. I llike most of his movies, just some aren't my style.

Melissa Ann

^^ You mean plot wise? Like "The Ninth Gate", which I love to death, I don't know why.
