At Least We Know It Won't Be a Slur

Johnny Depp has decided to don his director’s beret for the second time to direct a documentary about legendary Rolling Stones guitarist and walking methadone clinic Keith Richards. Depp has allegedly amassed a metric fuckload of footage. Of what remains to be seen. I don’t know if Richards sat down with Depp for interviews ala the fantasmorgaistic It Might Get Loud. Perhaps it will be concert footage or maybe behind the scenes movie writing. I’m extremely interested in seeing what a documentary biopic looks like, particularly one about a subject who is still very much, albeit inexplicably, alive.

Actually, all I’m hoping for is five minutes of Johnny Depp imitating Richards to Richards while watching Pirates of the Caribbean: At World’s End. It would be so meta it might actually cause a parallax rift.

Maybe Johnny could recreate Richards falling out of a palm tree in Figgy or Fiji or wherever the hell it was ... might knock some sense into the boy re: Roman Polanski.

Ah, my eyes! Somebody turn off that photo. Someone put bees in my eyes to make it stop. Please!

That picture inexplicably reminds me of "Rain Man."

I would be excited for this except for the whole Johnny Depp supporting Roman Polanski thing. If I cared any less about this, I would be catatonic.

Figgy, DID Keith Richards fall out of your tree? Or, did he really love your peaches and just wanna shake it?

The man allegedly also fell of a ladder in his (!) library. He should avoid high places.

Fabmax - He should avoid high places.

I think that the last 45 years or so of his life have been a high place.

Does anyone really give shit about the Rolling Stones enough to pay to watch this shit. It's not as if they went out before their time or lost an iconic frontman (see: Jim Morrison), they've been around forever, we know MORE than it's necessary about these old people.

This is a masturbation project on the part of Mr Depp.

If indeed this is what this is, then I would like to volunteer to help Mr. Depp with this project.

HEY!

Keep your panties on, pervert.

Posted by: BarbadoSlim at February 3, 2010 12:05 PM

Well, for now at least....

that's where the masturbation part comes in handy...

Johnny Depp and Polanski supportin’ ass can take his cool idea and get gone. So disappointing.

I will certainly be watching.

Also, yes...the meta would be...my god....SO MUCH META

I never saw the PotC 3 (4?) movie, so I'm not sure if that's an awful make-up
job on Mr Richards. Ghastly! I've seen his mug many a time here and there,
but I hadn't realized that things had taken such a turn.

I will neither confirm nor deny the reports that I might have shaken Keith Richards off a tree.
