Dear Johnny Depp,
I used to really like you, I used to think that you played your roles really well and that no one could have played your role better than you did. However, I just want to say that you disappointed me deeply with how you interpreted the Mad Hatter in Alice in Wonderland.
I thought that your later, unconvincing performances with Pirates of the Caribbean was brought by the pirate environment you had to make us feel like you were in. I dismissed all those grumblings and mumblings and I-don't-know-what and told myself, "maybe that's how pirates really talk". But now I realize that that was just you forgetting you had an audience. Sure you looked hot and sure you acted funny, but I didn't understand half of what you said and I'm pretty there are a lot of "like-me's" out there.
I no longer think your steady stares and far-away-looks are poetic. That's just how you act... because that's the only way you know how to act -- or at least that's how you make it look like. You're like our local star, Kris Aquino, whose sad, melancholic, angry, hysterical, doubtful, scared to death looks all look the same. Of course, you act so much better than her but that's just what everybody expects from a Hollywood celebrity.
Your Mad Hatter performance was the last straw. I'm no longer a fan. You were 80% angry-mad and only 20% insane-mad. That would look really good on a movie review (the ones we used to have to make in high school?) but that just turned out boring. You sounded a lot like your Jack Sparrow character. It's not funny, it's not amusing, and since I don't understand what you're saying it's not even cute anymore. I'm so glad Helena Bonham Carter was there, or the movie would have just sucked because you almost sucked all the life out of it.
Your ex-fan,
Me
