Dear Johnny Depp
Dear Johnny Depp,
You kind of frighten me in your new movie. I've only seen the previews of Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, but I'm not sure I want to see it despite my liking for the book. Even though I think of Willy Wonka as a kind soul, you look creepy and not at all the way I think Willy Wonka should look. Matter of fact, you kind of remind me of Michael Jackson--not a person I would want to encounter in an enchanted confectionary factory. I suspect he might want to do dirty things in the chocolate river with Charlie, Augustus Gloop, or Mike Teevee.
I do want you to know, however, that I love your purple Chocolicious Wonka Cakes. I purchased them on a whim tonight, and I was very pleased. Some colors do not work well with food; for example, blue ketchup was not acceptable and I'm not a fan of green eggs and ham either. But Hostess cupcakes frosted with purple and yellow and filled with purple cream...well, that's a winner.
Sincerely,
Anna

Depp isn't nearly as menacing as Gene Wilder in Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory.
Depp comes off very child like.
Though you are correct, his appearance in this movie is freaky.

I have to admit I find the Charly and the Chocolate factory movie perverse. I read the book in school and bought the old one for my kids. Though sometimes wishing I hadn't my boy thought he was an oopma Loopma for months! It's like Willy Wonka on acid or something. totally creepy.
