Who'd a thunk it?
if i had that kind of money i would pay him just to stand in front of me for and hour!
GO JOHNNY GOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!! YOU'RE THE BEST ACTOR OF THE WORLD AS WELL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Good for Johnny. He deserves it.
My hero !
at least it is him who gets padi the most- not some no talent wanna be. Johnny deserves every penny
For someone who once said he never wanted to be blockbuster boy? He's had one rip-roaring 20 years since "Jumpstreet". With all the crap Johnny's put up with, he's earned every penny,and come out smelling just fine!(Deppalicious)!He's true to himself,his family,& his fans!Johnny rocks!(POTC-AWE)The AWE STANDS FOR AWESOME!! My fantasy? Make him and his family a 9 course meal.
That is amazing! He is worth every cent!
Iam glad it is him and it is about time.He's Simpley the Best than All the Rest.
:O
is a lot ...
but he deserves more than that!!
*-*
he is perfect , so is fair!!!
=)and that is the prove that he is the best actor EVER!!!!!!!!!
(LL) love U johnny ^^
CAMILA FROM CHILE!!
Alone for giving us Jack Sparrow, he deserves it!
He acts, so we can hear the angels sing, - and he just keeps getting better...
And he doesn't spend his money on sunglasses with diamonds on or 110 pairs of shoes... He spend them on keeping his privacy and on charity.
I like that!
He is soooooooooooooooooo
worth every penny
Way to go Johnny. Well earned!
MMMMMMMMMMMM...All that money! Actually he deserves more. Now if they'd just give him that well deserved oscar!!
After this, it is a little hard to take the Oscar-award seriously - isn't it?
I mean he was nominated for being Jack Sparrow - I don't even remember, who got it instead...
He deserves every penny, not only is he a great actor, but an accomplished musician and an all round gorgeous, wonderful, handsome human being, who is obviously devoted to his family. Well done Johnny we all love you
THIS IS SO GREAT! HOLLYWOOD CAN EAT A CROW SANDWICH FOR HARDLY EVER FOCUSING ON ONE OF THE WORLDS MOST ADORABLE AND MOST LOVED "ACTORS"! I JUST WISH 'people" magazine" (NOTICE I DIDN'T USE CAPS, THEY DON'T DESERVE IT)! HE IS SUCH AN ASSET TO HOLLYWOOD AND RARELY EVER GETS AMERICAN MEDIA COVERAGE! IT'S ALWAYS BRAD AND ANGIE, CLOONEY AND JULIA ROBERTS. THESE PEOPLE DON'T AND NEVER WILL HAVE THE RANGE, PERSONALITY, WIT AND JUST PLAIN BEAUTIFUL LOOKS, (MOJO MAN), THAT JOHNNY DOES. I WONDER WHEN "HOLLYWOOD" WILL EVER GIVE THIS MAN HIS DUE?? HE DEFINATLEY MADE A GOOD MOVE, WHEN IT CAME TO PICKING THIS SCRIPT!!!
I'm not sure being "honored" by Hollywood is such an honor for a great artist (and he deserves to be truly honored!)--I'd be perfectly happy having him go back to flying under the radar because I know in decades to come every film history book will place him alongside greats like Brando and Olivier, while Brad Pitt and Tom Cruise will be nothing but a couple of moldy footnotes with dollar signs next to their names.
I think that is great he really is so good at what he does.
Money matters aside... what happened to Jack's beads?!!??
Yes!! Anonymous (both of you) - I couldn't have said it better!!!
i would pay that kind of money to have him stand in front of me for a few minutes...
he has always been my alltime fav. actor and i watch his interviews and special features on dvds over and over and over
i am so happy for him and his family..he is so talented and is my ultimate idol..there will never be another like him
WORTH EVERY DIME
my ultimate dream..to meet him
you're good Johnny!Yes you have deserved it!
I just found the most amazing tribute to Pirates - don't know how old it is but I almost cried - wanted to share it - hope it works.

I'm happy for johnny, Glad he is doing well, but that works out great for his fans aswell, with success come more roles. So we get more johnny. Also if he gets big money for those few pirate movies that enables him to chose roles just for the love of the story the way he as always wanted to work.
Even if he was paid double that he would still be worth it.
Our Johnny deserves it n' no one else!
I am happy for you Johnny!
Who woulda thought that a drug-sniffing gonzo reporter would make in excess of $70 million dollars for a movie?
