Depp Impact

Depp Impact

By Jenna Kuerzi

With live theatre on pause, Jenna Kuerzi pivoted her show "Johnny Depp: A Retospective on Late-Stage Capitalism", started watching all of Johnny Depp's movies, created a podcast, and is inviting a bevy of interesting people to talk about those movies!

A discussion about all 91 of Johnny Depp's illustrious film, television, and music video appearances.
A celebration of the movies we love, the movies we forgot existed, and a complicated human being we're allowed to have complicated feelings about.
A way to fill the time void caused by the COVID-19 crisis.

RPG & Jack and Jill w/Jenna Flying Solo

RPG & Jack and Jill w/Jenna Flying Solo

HI EVERYBODY! No, Depp Impact has not fallen into the abyss, never to return! It's here, baybeeee and shorter than ever! As the season gets busy and the project wraps up, Jenna just didn't have time to find guests, nor would she subject anybody to the 8 minute, Charlie Sheen, "masterpiece" RPG. So she did it herself! In this episode, we live react to the 1986 short "RPG" and then Jenna realizes half way through that she can also record a quick snippet on Jack and Jill. Brief updates abound in this exceedingly brief episode! Short films and cameos! Wow!

Arizona Dream w/Cameron Kelsall

Arizona Dream w/Cameron Kelsall

Ever see advertising for a movie and then watch the movie and the movie is NOTHING LIKE WHAT YOU THOUGHT IT WAS. If you haven't had this phenomenon happen, do yourself a favor and press play on Arizona Dream. Today Jenna is joined by the professor of obscure Depp-filmography, Cameron Kelsall (@ckelsall) to talk about 1992's Arizona Dream. Somewhere between 21 Jump Street and a fever dream, this movie was made. Questionable pretty people doing weird shit with accordions and flying fish. Seriously, this movie is a TRIP.

Waiting for the Barbarians w/Adam Howard

Waiting for the Barbarians w/Adam Howard

Jenna is back from a brief (three month!?) hiatus with one of Depp's more recent outputs! It's nothing personal, listeners, I just needed a break. But this is a movie that is not necessarily worth your time! Jenna is joined by the wonderful, the talented, the last guest on the pod Adam Howard (@adamdouglashoward) to talk about the jumble of metaphors that is Waiting for the Barbarians. This movie came out in 2020 after being shelved since 2019 and maybe it should have remained shelved! I'm being unfair about this boring, beautiful, film with good performances. Adam gave it 2 and 1/2 stars.

Once Upon A Time in Mexico w/Adam Howard

Jenna is joined by actor, teacher, and long time popcorn sweeper/maker, Adam Howard (@adamdouglashoward) to talk about the delightful blood bath that is Once Upon A Time in Mexico. Wow! I not stinker this deep in Depp's filmography! How did this happen!? It slipped through the cracks. They chat wanting to be cast in The Flick, the perfection that is Salma Hayek, and Spy Kids 3D. Depp is actually really good in this movie and it's... jarring! In a good way? Sure!

For No Good Reason w/Dane Eissler

Part II of our Depp Dive into the world of Gonzo with pod fave Dane (@dmeissler) to talk about Ralph Steadman and his very British ideals in a very American movement. For No Good Reason is a lovely dive into Steadman's work and a must for anybody even remotely interested in the Gonzo movement. Johnny Depp is barely in this movie! That's a good thing!

Jenna is joined by producer, director, visual artist, performer, and professional weirdo Dane Eissler (@dmeisler) to talk about the strangeness and the beauty that is the legacy of Hunter S. Thompson. This episode is part of a two-part episode series about the world of Gonzo, so look for Dane in next week's episode as well! They talk gateways to counter culture, the two sides of Hunter, and why, oh why, J. Depp spent 3 million dollars on Hunter's funeral.

Jenna is joined by deep friends of the pod (and former Textual Deviants) Taiwo Sokan (@taitaitiedye) and Adaeze Nwoko (@theprincessman) to discuss one of the worst movies in Depp's filmography Yoga Hosers! They have deep questions about who this movie is for, how it was made, what is Kevin Smith's obsession with Canada, and how Johnny Depp decided this was the character he would show up for.

They celebrate the magic of live theatre and the importance of storytelling that reaches out to not elderly rich white people. Kate Winslet's coughing is hilarious to behold and Steve and Jenna give a teaser to the sequels they will be making up, inspired by Finding Neverland in a future episode of "This Film Is Not Yet Created".

Brennen gives a beautiful synopsis of a bat shit movie, Faye Dunaway is a smoke show, and Marlon Brando put on pants for this.

Into the Woods w/Abby Rose Morris

Jenna is joined by performer, Sondheim super fan, and podcaster of More Than Tracy Turnblad: Abby Rose Morris (@abbyrosemorris) to live out some musical theatre fantasies and dunk on the movie that is Into the Woods. They discuss the differences between the movie and the stage show, like Depp's Wolf cosplay to 2019's movie "masterpiece" Cats, and explore why fairy tales should probably be told by characters not in them. The link to the only good scene is in the description below. Skip this movie.

Newt tries to talk through Tusk's plot, Jenna has beef with Kevin Smith, and both admit this is one of the weirder movies they've ever seen. What a movie for Johnny Depp to actually show up and give a great performance in.

Jenna is joined by podcast maven and managing editor of MovieJawn, among all sorts of Herculean tasks, Ryan Silberstein (@silberwhatever) to talk about the 2 hour and 45 minute ride that is The Lone Ranger. Yes, the Lone Ranger. Disney's biggest cinematic flop of all time. Johnny's attempt to "right the wrongs of Native American portrayals in movies" because that is his cross to bear. They talk train chases, Armie Hammer controversies, and Ryan says Depp's old man makeup makes him look like a melted candle.

Jenna is joined by multi-hyphenated theatre artist and law school student Claris Park (@clarisparkis) to discuss a movie they both hate a lot, The Professor. This episode is trans atlantic! Claris woke up very early to talk and Jenna didn't turn into a pumpkin at 7pm! Claris declines to give law advice and the two describe every way they hate this movie. It is, in fact, Johnny Depp's worst reviewed film on Rotten Tomatoes at 10% and seriously, do not watch this garbage movie. Listen to the pod instead.

Tay gives a gorgeous costume breakdown, we celebrate Europe, and the Golden Globes couldn’t figure out if this movie was a comedy or a drama. So they went with comedy. It isn’t a comedy.

Mordecai w/Hate Watch Great Watch

Mordecai w/Hate Watch Great Watch

Jenna is joined by Allison Yakulis and Hunter Bush of Hate Watch Great Watch (@hwgw) to talk about a hate watch, but maybe not a great watch, Mordecai! They talk about how Ewan McGregor is the best part of most bad things, the other half of late stage capitalism that is Gwyneth Paltrow, and find nice things to say about the movie's aesthetic. Jenna hates the "barf" noise. There's a lot of "barf" noise in this movie.

They giggle about mariachi owls, chariot chase scenes, and forget to discuss the premiere episode of Rupaul's Drag Race, even though it was in both of their notes to talk about it. Both are impressed by Depp's vocal performance and want more kids moves to be directed toward adults.

Jenna is joined by comedian, performer, and all around magical human Kevin Lau (@therealkevinlao) to talk about a movie so unmemorable they had to watch it twice, Nick of Time! While not a truly successful film, Kevin and Jenna find nice things to say. They try to remember Christopher Walken's filmography, every small child in the early 90's looks like Mara Wilson, and they try to get to the bottom of when movie stars are just in it for the paycheck.

They chat Ginsberg, Burroughs, and Jack Kerouac, the history of hip, and Johnny Depp's undisputed lesbian icon status. Joe is a treasure trove of amazing information, so Jenna mostly listens and absorbs the stories.

Alice Through the Looking Glass!  We discuss the Monster on The Masked Singer,  Adam Sandler's Jack and Jill, and pretty much everything that isn't Alice Through the Looking Glass.

Jenna is joined by co-creator of MovieJawn, director and writer of the upcoming short Pizzaman, and old sport to all, Rosalie Kicks (@bonjouroldsport) to talk about the Tim Burton cash-grab that is 2010's Alice in Wonderland! Jenna was greatly disappointed in this movie, but at least it kinda looks pretty? Rosalie can now cross this movie off her "Crispin Glover Movies To Watch" List, because believe it or not, he is indeed in this movie. They're tired of FEMINISM MEANS GIRLS DO STUFF TOO narratives and Johnny Depp is barely in this movie, even though he gets top billing. What a life.

Ezra accidentally watched the 5th movie and Jenna has to apologize for that. They chat Penelope Cruz, sequel fatigue, and what it must be like to earn 56 million dollars for a movie. Johnny Depp earned 56. Million. Dollars. For. This. Movie. Let that sink in.

Jenna is joined by Philadelphia Artist Collective Artistic Director, performer, writer, and director Dan Hodge to talk about the movie where Amber Heard and Johnny Depp met... The Rum Diary! They discuss how things can become toothless as they make the transition from book to film, Hunter S. Thompson's legacy, and Jenna laments the absence of Benicio del Toro. This movie proves that, while dedicating a film to a friend is a nice gesture, it's maybe not entertaining.

Dark Shadows w/Ang Bey

Dark Shadows w/Ang Bey

Jenna is joined by the multi-hyphenated talent powerhouse that is Ang Bey (@theangbee) to talk about the very confused Dark Shadows! They try to figure out if there is any connective tissue between the show in the 70's and this Tim Burton take, but have a hard time finding merit in this film. They discuss Depp's ugly wig, the truck loads of clown white that propel this movie, and it is ONCE AGAIN discovered that Tim Burton doesn't know any people who aren't the color of a sheet of paper.

From Hell w/Terry Brennan

From Hell w/Terry Brennan

Jenna is joined by circus artist and pizza youtuber, Terry Brennan (@terrencembrennan) to talk about the Hughes Brother's 2001 opus From Hell! They discuss the jump from graphic novel to film, the many terms used to describe ladies of the night, and the first recorded incident of Johnny Depp's vaguely British accent. Terry fell asleep during the movie at one point and Jenna can't remember what happened when he fell asleep, but Bilbo Baggins AND Hagrid are in this movie, so you know it was filmed in London.

Oh yes. And no matter how hard the early 2000's tried, a slow motion sex scene is still not sexy or artful.

Dead Men Tell No Tales! They discuss the lore of Jack Sparrow and his compass, Barbossa's hero arch, and the wet blankets that are Carina Smythe and Henry Turner.
